Abstract
In a first PHS terminal, a system calling code for identifying a system in which the first PHS terminal is registered and a slave ID number for discriminating the first PHS terminal are stored in advance in an ID chip. While a user is out, he or she sets the ID chip in a second PHS terminal which does not have the same system calling code as that of the first PHS terminal. When the user performs an operation for peer-to-peer communication on the first PHS terminal, the second PHS terminal is called using a controlling physical slot. The second PHS terminal is informed that it is called by discriminating a system calling code and a PS calling number of the physical slot on the basis of the system calling code of the ID chip, and then transmits a response signal to the first PHS terminal based on the system calling code and PS calling number of the ID chip. Thus, peer-to-peer communication can be performed even between radio communication terminals which do not have the same system calling code.
