METHOD FOR CONNECTING PEER-TO-PEER APPLICATIONS OVER A WIRELESS LAN, AND METHOD FOR MAINTAINING A CONNECTION BETWEEN THE PEER-TO-PEER APPLICATIONS OVER THE WIRELESS LAN, AND WIRELESS LAN-BASED PEER TERMINAL

摘要

A method for connecting peer-to-peer applications over a wireless LAN comprises the steps of: a peer terminal extracting application information from the peer-to-peer applications; the peer terminal generating service start information from the extracted application information; during a predetermined waiting time, the peer terminal determining whether or not at least one other peer terminal corresponding to the service start information exists; and setting the terminal having the highest leader pseudo-measurement as a leader terminal and setting the other terminals as member terminals based on a leader pseudo-measurement included in the service start information and a leader pseudo-measurement received from the or each other peer terminal when at least one other peer terminal corresponding to the service start information exists. Therefore, the present invention has the effect of being able to automatically and quickly connect the peer-to-peer applications over the wireless LAN.

主权项

1. A method for a peer-to-peer connection based on a wireless local area network (WLAN) including a plurality of peer terminals, the method comprising:
extracting, by a peer terminal, application information from a peer-to-peer application; generating, by the peer terminal, service start information from the extracted application information; determining, by the peer terminal, whether at least one another peer terminal corresponding to the service start information is present during a predetermined standby time; and setting a terminal having the highest leader pseudo-measurement as a leader terminal and setting a remaining terminal as a member terminal based on a leader pseudo-measurement included in the service start information and a leader pseudo-measurement received from each of the at least one other peer terminal when the at least one other peer terminal corresponding to the service start information is present.
