Patent Images
1. A communication terminal comprising:
- a first communication unit, having a power supply function by electromagnetic induction, that writes or reads information in one of an active mode and a passive mode;
a second communication unit having a communication capability higher than that of the first communication unit;
a determination unit that determines whether a mode in which the first communication unit is functioning is the active mode or the passive mode; and
communication control unit that controls communication via the second communication unit based on a determination result of the determination unit.

Abstract
A communication terminal includes a first communication unit which has a power supply function by electromagnetic induction and writes or reads information in an active or passive mode, and a second communication unit having a communication capability higher than that of the first communication unit. A mode in which the first communication unit is functioning, the active mode or the passive mode, is determined. Communication via the second communication unit is controlled based on the determination result.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that, when executed, causes a computer to perform a method, the computer being incorporated in a communication terminal including a first communication unit, having a power supply function by electromagnetic induction, that writes or reads information in one of an active mode and a passive mode, and a second communication unit having a communication capability higher than that of the first communication unit, the method comprising:
-
determining whether a mode in which the first communication unit is functioning is the active mode or the passive mode; and controlling communication via the second communication unit based on a result of the determining.
