An apparatus for displaying information received from a communication apparatus including a key information producing unit configured to produce key information used to authenticate the communication apparatus; a key information distributing unit configured to distribute the key information; an authentication information receiving unit configured to receive authentication information; an authenticating unit configured to authenticate the communication apparatus by verifying whether or not the authentication information was formed based upon the key information; and a display information receiving unit configured to receive display information from the authenticated communication apparatus, wherein the authenticated communication apparatus has a distribution range during reception of the key information such that the outputted key information can be acquired.

System and apparatus for information display

A wireless communication apparatus and a frequency channel selecting method. The wireless communication apparatus includes a transmitting/receiving unit, a storage unit storing updateable indexes relating to a communication condition, an evaluation reference updating unit for updating a reference of a communication quality based on the stored indexes, and a controller that selects frequency channels to communicate data and instructs the transmitting/receiving unit to switch to the selected frequency channels. The frequency channel selecting method includes updating an index representative of a communication quality of a wireless communication for each of a plurality of frequency channels, storing the updateable indexes, updating a reference of a communication quality based on the stored indexes, and selecting frequency channels for communicating based on the updated reference. The communication apparatus and frequency selecting method readily and flexibly select frequency channels with an acceptable communication quality using the updateable index and reference.

Wireless communication apparatus for selecting frequency channels

A radio terminal corresponding to a first radio terminal associated with a second radio terminal comprises following units. A first receiving unit receives a first request issued from the second radio terminal. An establishing unit establishes, in response to the first request, a radio link with respect to the second radio terminal. A setting unit sets, on the radio link, a connection with the second radio terminal. A detecting unit detects an event in association with the second radio terminal. A first transmitting unit transmits, to the second radio terminal via the connection, a first request message representing that first service information concerning the second radio terminal should be transmitted to the first radio terminal, when the detecting unit detects the event.

An apparatus for displaying information received from a communication apparatus includes: a key information producing unit configured to produce key information for authenticating the communication apparatus; a key information display unit for displaying the key information; an authentication information receiving unit for receiving authentication information; an authenticating unit for authenticating the communication apparatus by verifying whether or not the authentication information was formed based upon the key information; and a display information receiving unit for displaying information from the authenticated communication apparatus.

A communication network construction method comprises the steps of grouping the communication devices belonging to a communication network into one or a plurality of communication groups. In a selection step, one or a plurality of representative devices are selected in each communication group formed in the grouping step. In a communication step, each communication device communicates directly with the communication devices belonging to the same group, and communicates with the communication devices belonging to a different group by first transmitting data to the representative device of the same communication group and then causing the representative device to transfer a part or the whole of the data to the representative device of the different communication group.

A communication control apparatus according to the present invention has receive means and own terminal identifier setting means. The receive means receives terminal ID information having information of one or more terminal identifiers transmitted from one or more terminals with which communication is being held. The own terminal identifier setting means sets a terminal identifier among a plurality of terminal identifiers which are other than the terminals of the other terminals obtained from all terminal ID information items received from the receive means, which have been previously set and which can be used for the communication.
