ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING COMMUNICATION

摘要

An electronic device capable of communicating with another electronic device in multiple wireless manners is provided. The first wireless manner enables the electronic device to automatically establish a first communication link with the another electronic device when the distance between the electronic device and the another electronic device is less than the predetermined value. The first wireless manner is used to set up a second communication link between electronic devices by simply moving one of the electronic devices toward the other, to open a connection to exchange parameters for establishing the second communication link, thereby the second communication link can be established as a second step without any user involvement. A method for establishing communication between electronic devices is also provided.

主权项

1. An electronic device capable of communicating with another electronic device, the electronic device comprising:
a first communicating unit automatically establishing a first communication link with the another electronic device in a first wireless manner when the distance between the electronic device and the another electronic device is less than a predetermined value; a second communicating unit allowing the electronic device to establish a second communication link with the another electronic device in a second wireless manner; and a processor for detecting whether the electronic device establishes the first communication link with the another electronic device in the first manner, and sending a request signal to the another electronic device for establishing a second communication link via the established first communication link, and further performing authentication in response to an authenticating signal from the another electronic device, and controlling the second communicating unit to establish the second communication link with the another electronic device in the second manner when the electronic device is authenticated.
