First Claim
1. A wireless communication apparatus comprising:
- a receptacle configured to be inserted one end of a cable for transmitting and receiving an audio and visual (AV) signal in which a video signal, an audio signal are superimposed on each other, commands, and messages;
a wired communication module configured to transmit the commands and the messages through the receptacle and to receive the commands and the messages the through the receptacle;
a signal controller configured to transmit the AV signal through the receptacle or receive the AV signal through the receptacle;
a wireless communication module configured to transmit and receive the AV signal and the commands;
a power supply module configured to supply drive power for driving the wireless communication module the wireless communication module; and
a power supply controller configured to transmit a first command, to an electronic equipment using the wired communication module, for instructing to transmit setting message showing whether the electronic equipment is set to be activated in response to an activation command transmitted from the wired communication device, to transmit a second command, to the electronic equipment using the wired communication module, for instructing to transmit a state message showing whether the electronic equipment is in operation when the setting message shows that the electronic equipment is set to be activated in response to the activation command, to determine whether the electronic equipment is in operation based on the state message, and to instruct the power supply module to stop supplying the drive power to the wireless communication module when it is determined that the electronic equipment is not being activated.
