Claims25
A method for speed dialing in a mobile communication system, the method comprising:
- inputting a speed dial code comprising a user-selected input for designating a call destination, wherein the speed dial code is shorter than a corresponding dialing number associated with the call destination;
- transmitting the speed dial code to a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card;
- determining the dialing number corresponding to the speed dial code from the SIM card according to a speed dial mode of a plurality of speed dial modes;
- and
- transmitting the detected dialing number to a User Equipment (UE) through a mechanism of Call Control by SIM,
- wherein the plurality of speed dial modes comprise a Mobile Country Code (MCC) and a Mobile Network Code (MNC), and
- wherein the call destination corresponding to the user-selected speed dial code according to each speed dial mode of the plurality of speed dial modes is determined without regard for a call destination corresponding to the speed dial code according to another speed dial mode.
