table has conversion data for use in converting voice data to character data, a
speech recognition and character conversion unit converts the voice signal received,
from the base station to voice data using speech recognition and the voice data
to character data by referring to the speech/character conversion table, a display

to the mobile phone, transmits a speech recognition notification request message
to the base station in a speech recognition and character display mode, and controls
the speech recognition and character display operation.
