Abstract
A method for optimizing an automatic opening and closure control of a sub-body folder in a foldable mobile communication terminal provided with a main body, the sub-body, a sensor means for detecting a fully open or closed state of the sub-body, a sub-body opening/closing drive unit, and a current sensor. According to the method, a first motor driving current is measured before detection by the sensor means upon an opening or closing operation of the sub-body by the sub-body opening/closing drive unit, and then a second motor driving current is measured after detection by the sensor means upon the opening or closing operation. Then, an optimal current threshold value is determined based on the first and second motor driving currents measured to be taken as a reference value for anticipating an operational state of the motor.
