The terminal receives from another communication terminal a request includes an obscured call information for obscuring an identification information. The communication terminal obscures the identification information after receiving the request.

Claims (27)

1. A communication system comprising:

a sending terminal comprising:

a storage module for storing an identification information for identifying said sending terminal, and

a calling module for transmitting a connection request comprising said identification information and an identification obscuration information for obscuring said identification information; and

a receiving terminal comprising:

a storage module for storing identification information identifying a terminal and a user information corresponding to said identification information, said user information being different from said identification information, and

a controlling module for executing a process comprising:

detecting said identification obscuration information of said connection request, and

displaying at said receiving terminal said user information corresponding to said identification information of said connection request retrieved from said storage module of said receiving terminal.

2. The communication system according to claim 1 , wherein said identification information is a phone number of said sending terminal.

3. The communication system according to claim 1 , said process of said controlling module further comprising,

detecting said identification information corresponding to said user information when said user information is inputted by said user of said receiving terminal, and

transmitting said connection request comprising an identification information of said receiving terminal to said network.

4. The communication system according to claim 3 , wherein said storage module further stores a period information indicative of a validity of a correspondence between said identification information of said sending terminal and said user information, and

said process further comprising, transmitting said connection request when said period information is less than predetermined value.

5. The communication system according to claim 4 , said process further comprising, deleting said identification information of said sending terminal, said user information and said period information when said period information is not less than predetermined value.

6. The communication system according to claim 1 , wherein said calling module further transmits said user information, and said process further comprising, storing said user information to said storage module.

7. A terminal in a communication system for communicating between the other terminals having an identification information for identifying uniquely via a network, said terminal comprising:

a storage module for storing said identification information said terminal and a user information corresponding to said identification information, said user information being different from said identification information of said sending terminal, and

a controlling module for executing according to a process comprising:

receiving a connection request comprising said identification information of said other terminals and a identification obscuration information for obscuring said identification information of said other terminals from said network;

detecting said identification obscuration information of said connection request, and

displaying said user information corresponding to said identification information of said other terminals of said connection request retrieved from said storage module.

8. A method for communicating between a sending terminal and a receiving terminal, said sending terminal and said receiving terminal having an identification information for identifying uniquely in a network, said receiving terminal storing said identification information of said sending terminal and a user information corresponding to said identification information of said sending terminal, said user information being different from said identification information of said sending terminal, the method comprising the steps of:

transmitting a connection request comprising said identification information of said sending terminal and a identification obscuration information for obscuring said identification information of said sending terminal from said sending terminal to said network; and

detecting said identification obscuration information of said connection request by said receiving terminal, and

displaying at said receiving terminal said user information corresponding to said identification information of said sending terminal of said connection request.
