Abstract
Conventionally, when a mobile phone receives an incoming call and no response is made to the call, the user can only recognize the name or phone number of a caller, plus the incoming time, by the incoming call history list. Also, if no response is made to an incoming call in the call waiting function, the user cannot identify the caller later. The present communication apparatus displays an image of a caller of an incoming call to which no response has been made after reception of the incoming call ends. This makes it possible for the user to identify the caller by the image. Further, the present communication apparatus displays an image of a caller of an incoming call in the call waiting function after the conversation ends. This enables the user to identify the caller later.
