摘要

PURPOSE: A method for providing a wireless Internet service using a menu structure map file is provided to easily retrieve a desired specific Internet site on off-line by generating URL(Uniform Resource Locator) information and menu content information about a plurality of Internet sites as the menu structure map file, storing the menu structure map file, and transmitting the menu structure map file to a mobile communication terminal of a predetermined subscriber or a mobile communication terminal of a subscriber who requests the transmission. CONSTITUTION: An information provider server(20) retrieve and confirms URL information and menu content information about each Internet site, generates URL information and menu content information as a menu structure map file, and stores and manages the menu structure map file in a database(S10). If the stored menu structure map file is requested from a random mobile communication terminal(10n) connected to a mobile communication network(S11), the information provider server(20) reads the menu structure map file and transmits the menu structure map file(S12). The mobile communication terminal(10n) receives the menu structure map file and stores the menu structure map file in a memory(S13). The mobile communication terminal(10n) operates a tree viewer application, reads and reproduces the menu structure map file, and displays a menu picture of a tree structure type(S14). If a subscriber selects and designates a specific menu through the displayed menu picture of the tree structure type and selects and inputs a browser operation button, the mobile communication terminal(10n) operates a browser application and displays a summary content about the specific menu(S15). If the subscriber selects and inputs a connection button, the mobile communication terminal(10n) transmits a wireless Internet service request signal to the information provider server(20)(S16). The information provider server(20) receives the wireless Internet service request signal, and performs a routing operation for relaying connection with a corresponding Internet site according to the received wireless Internet service request signal(S17). The subscriber having the mobile communication terminal(10n) retrieves and receives desired information through an Internet interface with an Internet server(30m)(S18).
