MOBILE TERMINAL AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR
First Claim
1. A mobile terminal, comprising:
- a wireless communication unit configured to perform wireless communication;
an IR (infrared) transceiver configured to transceive IR signals;
a user input unit configured to receive a user input; and
a controller configured to if receiving a first user input through the user input unit, control a first IR signal to be outputted through the IR transceiver, the controller further configured to if receiving a second IR signal from an external terminal having received the first IR signal, control shared data to be sent to the external terminal through the wireless communication unit.

Abstract
Disclosed are a mobile terminal capable of starting data sharing through an infrared signal and a control method therefor. To this end, the mobile terminal may comprise: a wireless communication unit for performing wireless communications; and infrared transceiver for transmitting and receiving an infrared signal; a user input unit for receiving a user input; and a control unit for controlling a first infrared signal to be output through the infrared transceiver when a first user input is received through the user input unit, and controlling shared data to be transmitted to an external terminal through the wireless communication unit when a second infrared signal is received from the external terminal which has received the first infrared signal.

19. A mobile terminal, comprising:
-
a wireless communication unit configured to perform wireless communication; an IR (infrared) transceiver configured to transceive IR signals; a user input unit configured to receive a user input; and a controller configured to after the IR transceiver has received a first IR signal from an external terminal, if a first user input for accepting a data sharing with the external terminal is received through the user input unit, output a second IR signal through the IR transceiver, the controller further configured to control shared data to be received from the external terminal having received the second IR signal.

20. A method of controlling a mobile terminal, comprising:
-
if a first user input is received, outputting a first IR (infrared) signal from an IR transceiver; receiving a second IR signal through the IR transceiver from an external terminal having received the first IR signal; and if the second IR signal is received, sending shared data to the external terminal.
