Pairing method and terminal apparatus

摘要

In a wireless communication system which includes a first electronic device, a second electronic device, and a plurality of third electronic devices, a pairing method of pairing the second electronic device and a particular third electronic device, includes a step in which the first electronic device receives a plurality of pass keys from part or all of the plurality of third electronic devices, a step in which the first electronic device identifies that a pass key of the particular third electronic device is included in the plurality of pass keys using identification information, a step of transmitting the pass key of the particular third electronic device to the second electronic device, a step in which the second electronic device transmits the pass key of the second electronic device to the particular third electronic device, and a step of establishing connection between the second and third electronic devices.

主权项

1. A pairing method of, in a wireless communication system which comprises a first electronic device, a second electronic device, and a plurality of third electronic devices, pairing the second electronic device and a particular one of the third electronic devices,
the devices each having a wireless communication function, the first electronic device holding identification information for identifying the particular third electronic device, and the second electronic device and each of the third electronic devices holding pass keys for uniquely specifying the second electronic device and each of the third electronic devices, the pairing method comprising: a step (a) in which the first electronic device receives a plurality of pass keys from part or all of the plurality of third electronic devices; a step (b) in which the first electronic device identifies that a pass key of the particular third electronic device is included in the plurality of pass keys, using the identification information; a step (c) of transmitting the pass key of the particular third electronic device to the second electronic device; a step (d) in which the second electronic device transmits the pass key of the second electronic device to the particular third electronic device; and a step (e) of establishing connection between the second electronic device and the particular third electronic device.
