A wireless communication system comprises a wireless handset, a base station comprising an antenna, and a communication server. The wireless handset comprises a key circuit for inputting telephone numbers or key data, a radio frequency (RF) communication circuit for receiving and transmitting wireless signals, a liquid crystal display (LCD) panel for displaying text or images, and a processor for controlling the operations of the wireless handset. The communication server comprises a memory, and a processor. The memory comprises a map database for storing map graphic data, a keyword data file comprising a plurality of keywords and map coordinates corresponding to the keywords, and a searching program for searching the keyword data file for a target keyword to find the target map coordinate that corresponds to the target keyword and then searching the map database using the target map coordinate to find the target map graphic data that corresponds to the target map coordinate. When a user uses the key circuit to input a target keyword, the wireless handset will use the RF communication circuit to transmit the target keyword to the communication server through the base station. The searching program will find the target map graphic data and transmit the target map graphic data to the wireless handset. The wireless handset will then display the target map graphic data onto the liquid crystal display panel.
