Recognition device 560 in battery is T (former code data) to link to each other with cellular output port 116 with two data wires C (complement code data) by label, is used for for example being sent in to cell phone the data of the readable character of input on the digitalizer 552.Output port 116 has 4 lines, i.e. C, T, R and PW line.The C of output port 116, T links to each other with recognition device 560 with R line and power line PW, thereby the transmission and the power of data are provided.Recognition device 560 also can be connected in the common signal line that label is R (return data) by mode well known in the art, synchronously transmits at return data signal that is sent by cell phone on the return data line and the data-signal that receives from recognition device 560 on T (former code data) and C (complement code data) line.When producing readable character when the reception hand-written information and by it, readable character shows on display 570, makes the user can see the information of being deciphered by recognition device 560.
In this way, when the user writes on digitalizer or during entering handwritten information, produce readable character from hand-written character, thereby formation hand-written information, and arrive cell phones by recognition device 560, thereby for example on display 520, shown or and telephone number be associated and be stored in the cellular memory.User profile can comprise instruction, and the indication cell phone is finished given task or operation when by cell phone, for example comprising dialing the number or sending a page.Therefore,, make it comprise digitalizer and recognition device, and by data wire C, T link to each other with improved battery with R by improved cellular battery.Existing cell phone just can receive hand-written character by the digitalizer that is contained in the battery.The user only need obtain to have the improved battery of digitalizer and recognition device, just can entering handwritten information so that for example to information annotated or indication cell phone finish particular task.
Referring to Fig. 6, wherein show cellular operational flowchart according to Fig. 5.For entering handwritten information, the user uses pen being positioned on the digitalizer 552 of battery in the step 604 and writes or entering handwritten information (or character).Hand-written information can be imported by the electricity consumption submode, for example by fax.Will be understood by those skilled in the art that when carrying out telephone relation, the user is not easy entering handwritten information, up to end of conversation.Therefore, be preferably in when not carrying out telephone relation by improved cellular battery input information or hand-written information.In the step 602, recognition device 560 is checked so that determine whether input is arranged on digitalizer 552, if do not have, then continues to check in the step 602 input of hand-written information.Yet,, use various technology to catch hand-written input by digitalizer when being checked through when on digitalizer 552, input being arranged in the step 602.For example the position of pen 120 can be detected (for example about per second 100 times) apace, and with (X, Y) coordinate sequence storage.(X, Y) coordinate is explained, so that determine the input to digitalizer 552 for these.Digitalizer 552, for example comprise the detector 554 that is used for pen 120, it follows the tracks of the motion of pen 120 on digitalizer 552, when for example pen contacts with digitalizer, be pressed in partly on the digital surface of digitalizer 552, thereby produce curtage.Make the signal that produces by measuring when in addition, the pen 120 of charging is on the surface of the digitalizer that the material of known resistivity covers or near its surface at the edge on the surface of digitalizer 552; Or by pen 120, they launch radio frequency (RF) energy on the surface of digitalizer, and the distance of RF energy is detected on the surface of digitalizer.
Utilize pen 120, by describing hand-written character on digitalizer 552, the user is input or generation hand-written character in digitlization wide 114 (or 214) or digitlization space 314-320 (or 414-420).Digitalizer 552 is followed the tracks of the motion of pen 120 on digital surface, and in the step 606, and retrieval is sent to the hand-written character of recognition device 560 or the image of describing.Recognition device 560 for example has handwriting recognition algorithm, and the sequence that this algorithm is used to discern the point of being caught by the digitlization element in the step 608 is as readable character or the instruction that can be explained by microcomputer.
According to most preferred embodiment of the present invention, use a kind of trainable or subscriber-related system, wherein the user at first imports several examples of each character that will be identified, and is used for training system, makes it discern the hand-written of user.Sampling is stored and makes it to pass through recognition device 560, and it compares by 562 pairs of inputs of comparator, thereby produces the sampling corresponding to readable character or instruction.In case sampling is stored, system just uses the newer input of comparator 562 and the sampling of storage, thereby determines character that write or that describe on digitalizer 552 going on foot 608.Trainable system can reach high accuracy of identification for the specific user.In addition, the sampling of input when being retrieved, just contrast storage model for example readable character compare.The third method comprises the hand-written character of retrieval by the input of neural net or the processing of other statistical organization, thereby discerns the output classification under their.
According to another kind of embodiment of the present invention, recognition device 560 does not need training, and can be that the user has nothing to do.Recognition device 560 is subscriber-related or the user has nothing to do hardware that depends on recognition device or identifier and software.The recognition device that common user has nothing to do requires more memory distribution than subscriber-related recognition device.The identifier that the user has nothing to do is often discerned the character of square character and sytlized font, for example the character in English and Chinese.Subscriber-related identifier is limited to identification square character usually.The identifier that the user has nothing to do can be used by the user of any amount, and user-dependent identifier is used for discerning a people's a kind of hand-written pattern usually by training.
In the step 610, determine whether the end of the information that retrieves, for example, this may comprise by the user imports a predetermined stroke (instruction), is used for the end of flag information.The user can import other conventional letter or stroke, thereby produces the digitlization element that can be used to control this device in many ways.Described conventional letter can be scheduled to, or trained as previously mentioned, thereby make cell phone finish required function.For example, the user can import several leading character of the name of storing in catalog memory, write a circle then, thereby orders microcomputer 510 search address from memory, and sends hand-written information to this person.Another instruction conventional letter for example comprises that the training cell phone is finished particular task when the ad-hoc location of user on the digital surface of digitalizer 552 raps.Which button this can needn't remember by it for the user provides more selectable information.
In the step 612, in case retrieve the end of information, storage is by the hand-written information of digitalizer 552 inputs.Then, appear on the display 570, the user is seen and proofread and correct this information in step 614 hand-written informations.In the step 616, by selecting, for example a character or a word in the information are done bright, the user can proofread and correct described character or word in the step 618 by starting adjuster 564, adjuster 564 excitation digitalizers 552 make it be received in another input (accepting other hand-written information) on the digitalizer, character or word (substitute character) are at the character or the word of step 620 replacement highlights.Therefore, in case after adjuster 564 was activated, the user just can proofread and correct any mistake in the input information.Store as the readable character that forms hand-written information or instruction with its last form in step 622 information then.Realize the step of control information by step 614-622.In the step 624, the mode of knowing with those of ordinary skills is delivered to cell phone to this information by the suitable circuit of connecting output bus 116 on universal serial bus.In the step 626, receive this information and storage in memory 516 by cell phone.When information is received, can be used as the appearance information storage, so that be associated with other user profile or be associated, be used for discerning the owner with a telephone number.For example, the several characters by writing a name are also described dialing instruction (standardized circle), then can make cell phone dial the telephone number relevant with the name of importing.This name is retrieved later on also and other input information constitutes together and can for example, send one page to the selective call receiver from the information of cell phone transmission.Send as one page by writing information on digitalizer 552 and this information, can send alphanumeric information by page or leaf to the selective call receiver.Therefore, can on digitalizer 552, import name, instruction and information and send by page or leaf.Hand-written information also can be to make cell phone finish the instruction or the conventional letter of particular task.
In this way, cellular battery can be modified, so that receive hand-written information or instruction from the user, the user uses pen entering handwritten information on digitalizer.In case information is transfused to, this information just is shown and is proofreaied and correct by the user.The information of proofreading and correct can be used to start page info or to the stored information note.But inputting characters by handwriting or conventional letter are also finished particular task as the designated command cell phone.Therefore, the user is not limited to the information or the operation keyboard of pre-stored (fixing), key on the keyboard is too little, by itself being not easy input information in cell phone, because improved battery comprises digitalizer and hand-written discrimination system, the user is selected and input information, message and instruction easily.In addition, because the user can just can use CALLERID to its message note in addition TMThe call identifying person, thus obtain telephone number and this telephone number and caller's name is connected, answer or pick up (pick-up) so that determine whether its cellular calling.
The present invention has carried out explanation as above according to most preferred embodiment.Other embodiment of the present invention can be the part of digitalizer 552 as cell phone itself.Recognition device 560 also can be placed in the cell phone.For existing telephone, above-mentioned most preferred embodiment is desirable, thereby because the user can add handwriting recognition by the battery of replacing phone with the battery 106 with digitalizer 552 and recognition device 560 simply in existing phone.But new phone can design more easily by hand-write recognition function is concentrated to place in the phone.
