TELEVISION RECEIVER WITH CALLER-ID FEATURE

摘要

A television receiver includes a Caller-ID feature in which a circuitry is included for receiving and demodulating Caller-ID data included between the first and second rings of an incoming telephone call. The television receiver then stores this Caller-ID data, compares it with previously stored data relating to the Caller-ID number, including the name of the originator of the call, the area of the country from which the call originated, based on the area code, and then displays the information on the television screen as, for example, On-Screen display (OSD) graphics, or in a separate PIP window display.
