COMMUNICATION DEVICE, METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING A COMMUNICATION CONNECTION AND METHOD FOR USING A COMMUNICATION CONNECTION
First Claim
1. A communication device comprising:
- a communication connection establishing circuit configured to establish an ad hoc network communication connection between the communication device, a second communication device and a third communication device;
a generating circuit configured to generate encryption parameters to be used by the second communication device and the third communication device for encrypting and decrypting data transmitted between the second communication device and the third communication device via the communication connection when the communication device has left the communication connection;
a signaling circuit configured to signal the encryption parameters to the second communication device and the third communication device; and
a disconnection circuit configured to remove the communication device from the communication connection.
