WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, WIRELESS HOST, AND WIRELESS DEVICE
First Claim
1. A wireless communication system comprising:
- a wireless host that issues a request for wireless communication; and
a wireless device that receives the request, whereinthe wireless host includes a communication unit that transmits, before transmitting a communication request that requests wireless communication with the wireless device to the wireless device, a requesting-user ID for identification of a requesting user that is using the wireless host,the wireless device includes;
a communication unit that receives the requesting-user ID from the wireless host;
a user-ID storing unit that stores a user ID of a user that is permitted to establish communication with the wireless device;
a user authentication unit that authenticates the requesting user based on a result of comparison between the requesting-user ID received by the communication unit of the wireless device and the user ID stored in the user-ID storing unit; and
an information required prior to connection storing unit that stores, when the requesting user is authenticated by the user authentication unit, information required prior to connection that indicates that the requesting user is authenticated,when the requesting user is authenticated by the user authentication unit, the communication unit of the wireless device transmits the information required prior to connection to the wireless host,the communication unit of the wireless host transmits the information required prior to connection to the wireless device in an association process for wireless connection with the wireless device,the wireless device further includes an information required prior to connection verifying unit that compares the information required prior to connection received by the wireless device and the information required prior to connection stored in the information required prior to connection storing unit, andwhen the information required prior to connection received by the wireless device and the information required prior to connection stored in the information required prior to connection storing unit match, the communication unit of the wireless device continues the association process with the wireless host.

Abstract
A wireless communication system includes a wireless host and a wireless device. The wireless device includes a user authentication unit that authenticates a requesting user that is using the wireless host based on a result of comparison between a requesting-user ID of the requesting user received from the host and a user ID of a user that is permitted to establish communication with the wireless device. When the requesting user is authenticated by the user authentication unit, information required prior to connection is stored in the wireless device and the wireless host. The wireless device permits to continue the association process with the wireless host, when the information required prior to connection received from the wireless host and the information required prior to connection stored in the wireless device match.

13. A wireless host that issues a request for wireless communication to a wireless device, the wireless host comprising:
-
a communication unit that transmits, before transmitting a communication request that requests wireless communication with the wireless device to the wireless device, a requesting-user ID for identification of a requesting user that is using the wireless host; and an information required prior to connection storing unit that stores, when the communication unit receives an information required prior to connection that indicates that the requesting user has been authenticated from the wireless device, the information required prior to connection, wherein the communication unit transmits the information required prior to connection to the wireless device in an association process for wireless connection with the wireless device, and when continuance of the association process is permitted by the wireless device, the communication unit continues the association process.

14. A wireless device that receives a request for wireless communication from a wireless host, the wireless device comprising:
-
a communication unit that receives a requesting-user ID for identification of a requesting user that uses the wireless host from the wireless host; a user-ID storing unit that stores a user ID of a user that is permitted to establish communication with the wireless device; a user authentication unit that authenticates the requesting user based on a result of comparison between the requesting-user ID received by the communication unit and the user ID stored in the user-ID storing unit; and an information required prior to connection storing unit that stores, when the requesting user is authenticated by the user authentication unit, information required prior to connection that indicates that the requesting user has been authenticated, wherein when the requesting user is authenticated by the user authentication unit, the communication unit transmits the information required prior to connection to the wireless host, the wireless device further includes an information required prior to connection verifying unit that compares the information required prior to connection received by the wireless device and the information required prior to connection stored in the information required prior to connection storing unit in an association process for wireless connection with the wireless host, and when the information required prior to connection received by the wireless device and the information required prior to connection stored in the information required prior to connection storing unit match, the communication unit continues the association process with the wireless host.
