| 摘要 |
Methods, systems, and devices are described for establishing an infrared (IR) triggered radio communication connection between two devices. Upon aligning IR ports, IR trigger messages can be exchanged between devices and/or access points using an IR communication link, where the IR trigger messages indicate intent and capability of establishing the connection. The IR trigger messages may trigger device discovery and connection using the radio communication technology. Additional operations (e.g., exchanging files, streaming content, etc.) may be performed automatically between the devices upon establishing the connection. The radio communication technology may include wireless local area network (WLAN), Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi P2P, Wi-Fi-Direct, or other similar radio link between two devices, such as between a mobile device and another mobile device, a printer, a display, an Access Point, and the like. |

1. A method, comprising:
transmitting a first infrared (IR) trigger message from a first device to a second device using an IR communication link, the first IR trigger message indicating an intent to establish a connection using a radio communication technology; receiving, via the IR communication link, a second IR trigger message; and in response to receiving the second IR trigger message, establishing the connection with the second device using the radio communication technology. |
