A control method and an electronic device thereof are provided. A first electronic device can include a communication unit and a control unit configured to perform providing device identification information to a second electronic device based on a beacon received from the second electronic device through the communication unit, and conducting at least one function corresponding to the signal received from the second electronic device.

Method for controlling and an electronic device thereof

A method of running a car application connected to a mobile device is provided. The method includes determining, by the mobile device, whether a wireless charging event occurs; determining, by the mobile device, whether the mobile device is located in a car, if the wireless charging event occurs; and running the car application if the mobile device is determined to be located in the car.

Apparatus and method for running car application connected to mobile device

Disclosed are a method and a system for Bluetooth communication. In the Bluetooth system, a Bluetooth device includes: a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) reader for reading out RFID information from the RFID Tag within an effective transmission and receiving range and outputting the RFID information; a control unit for activating the RFID reader when a request for Bluetooth connection using the RFID is inputted by a user in a Bluetooth communication mode, extracting the bonding information from the RFID information inputted from the RFID reader, and outputting the bonding information; and a Bluetooth module for receiving the bonding information outputted from the control unit, pairing the first Bluetooth device using the bonding information, and performing Bluetooth communication.

Bluetooth&#xae; system and Bluetooth&#xae; bonding process

Provided is a method and apparatus for secured communication between Bluetooth devices. A temporary Bluetooth Device Address (BD_ADDR) is generated and set if a Bluetooth communication request is generated in a secured mode and Bluetooth communication is performed using the temporary BD_ADDR; when the Bluetooth communication is terminated, the temporary BD_ADDR is released and eliminated and a default BD_ADDR is set. Thus, it is possible to prevent another Bluetooth device from performing the Bluetooth communication without a bonding process, thereby enabling secured communication.
