Abstract
A method in an electronic device includes receiving an input pattern, identifying a pattern identification (ID) from the input pattern, determining a counterpart electronic device corresponding to the pattern ID, and establishing a wireless connection with the corresponding electronic device. An electronic device includes a wireless communication unit configured to perform wireless communication with one or more other electronic devices, a pattern input unit configured to receive an input pattern, and a processor configured to identify a pattern from the input pattern, determine a counterpart electronic device with an ID corresponding to the pattern, and cause the wireless communication unit to wirelessly connect with the counterpart electronic device. Also, other embodiments are disclosed.
