Communication device and a method for establishing communication connection
First Claim
1. A communication device for communicating with an external device, comprising:
- a communication unit which communicates with an external device;
means for searching an external device surrounding the communication device through the communication unit both for a first time and for a second time;
means for receiving a response from an external device corresponding to the searching;
means for detecting a connection object coming out of the external device that did not provide a response within the first time, and did provide a response within the second time; and
means for establishing a communication connection with the connection object detected by the detecting means.

Abstract
A method for detecting a communication device as connection object, has the steps of (1) setting a first communicating device in a first condition in which the first communication device does not communicate for a first time, and in a second condition in which the first communication device does communicate for a second time, (2) searching a communication device which surrounds a second communication device and is able to communicate the second communication device both for the first time and for the second time, and (3) detecting the first communicating device coming out of the communicating device that did not communicate in the first time, and that was able to communicate in the second time.

17. A method for establishing a radio connection between communication devices, comprising the steps of;
-
setting a first communication device in a first condition in which the first communication device does not respond to an inquiry;
outputting a first inquiry from a second communication device for a predetermined time so as to receive response from a communication device surrounding the second device;
setting the first communication device in a second condition in which the first communication device responds to an inquiry;
outputting a second inquiry from the second communication device for a predetermined time so as to receive response from a communication device surrounding the second device;
detecting the first communication device coming out of the communication device that did not respond to the first inquiry and did respond to the second inquiry; and
establishing a communicating connection between the first communication device and the second communication device.
