WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE HAVING DUAL TRANSCEIVERS FOR NETWORK PAIRING WITH ANOTHER DEVICE
First Claim
1. A wireless communication device for network pairing with a remote communication device comprising:
- a first wireless transceiver having a cellular communication link with the remote communication device;
a second wireless transceiver capable of having an ad hoc communication link with the remote communication device,wherein the first wireless transceiver is capable of exchanging ad hoc addresses with the remote communication device via the cellular communication link and the second wireless transceiver is capable of forming the ad hoc communication link based on the ad hoc addresses exchanged via the first wireless transceiver.

Abstract
A system and method for network pairing with two or more wireless communication devices, in which each device includes at least two wireless transceivers. For each device, one wireless transceiver has indirect communication with the other communication device via a first connection, and another wireless transceiver that is capable of direct communication with the other communication device via a second connection based on an ad hoc protocol. The wireless transceivers of the wireless communication devices exchange network address information needed for paired communication between the devices through the first connection, thus minimizing the need to search and discovery for paired communication for the second connection.
