Abstract:
A near-distance radio communication is performed between a plurality of communication devices. When a predetermined connection operation is performed in a first communication device (10a), an inquiry message for finding a device to be connected for radio communication is radio-transmitted by limiting the transmission-enabled distance to a short distance. When a predetermined wait operation is performed in a second communication device (10b), the inquiry message is received and a response message for the received inquiry message is radio-transmitted. Upon reception of the response message, the first communication device (10a) performs a connection processing with the second communication device (10b).
Abstract:
In the case where close range wireless communication is performed among a plurality of communication devices, when a predetermined connection operation is performed in a first communication device 10a, an inquiry message is wirelessly transmitted in order to discover a device to be connected by the wireless communication after restricting a transmissible distance to a close range; when a predetermined standby operation is performed in a second communication device 10b, the inquiry message is received and a response message to the received inquiry message is wirelessly transmitted; and when the response message is received, the first communication device 10a performs the connection processing with respect to the second communication device 10b.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a radio communication apparatus and a radio communications method, a radio communication system, a recording medium, and a computer program in which a response signal to an inquiry is returned to a master only when instructions to perform radio communications are issued. A CPU 51 blinks LED 56 when an inquiry signal is received, and transmits a response to the inquiry signal when a user who has referred to lighting of the LED 56 operates a connection response button 53. The connection response button 53 is operated when the user issues radio communications instructions with respect to the inquiry signal. In other words, even when wireless headphones 2 are within an area capable of radio communications with the master, only if the connection response button 53 is operated by the user, it sends to the master a response to the inquiry, and establishes connection. The present invention may be applied to a wireless storage server, wireless headphones, and audio reproduction apparatuses.
Abstract:
A personal digital assistant (PDA) (2) that establishes synchronization with a personal computer (1) for Bluetooth communication (B), based on Bluetooth address in device information sent from the personal computer. The PDA selects a service according to service record in the device information and establishes communication by Bluetooth. Independent claims are included for the following: (1) communication method; (2) information processing apparatus; and (3) information processing method.

Abstract:
When wireless communications are performed with other communication devices, an inquiry message to discover other communication devices residing in the vicinity is wirelessly transmitted by having communication ranges altered at a plurality of stages; response messages to the transmitted inquiry message are received; information relating to a receiving state or frequency of receipt of the response messages from the respective communication ranges is preserved with respect to each communication device which is a source of the response message; and based on the preserved information relating to the receiving state or the frequency of receipt of the response messages a communication device to be a connection object for wireless communication is selected. By doing so, when short-range wireless communications are performed, communication services can be performed appropriately between required devices.
