Abstract

An apparatus in an intelligent type for filtering a disturbance for an incoming phone call includes a phone call data bank, a user's interface device, a register module, and a filtering module of incoming phone call. The phone call data bank stores at least one phone call data, and the phone call data includes an identification type. The user interface device receives a filtering flag set by the user to the phone call data, having the similar identification type. The register module stores a phone number of the incoming phone call when a request for signal connection is received. The filtering module of incoming phone call compares the phone number of the incoming phone call with the filtering flag of the phone call data bank, so as to judge whether or not the phone number of the incoming call needs to be screened. The present invention also provides a method in an intelligent type for filtering a disturbance for an incoming phone call.
