System and method for determining a tentative master of a radio conference system
First Claim
1. A system for determining a tentative master of a radio conference system in which an unspecified number of radio terminals are collected at arbitrary places, a network is temporarily constructed by making a certain terminal of said radio terminals to be a tentative master that is a temporary master and synchronizing with one channel issued from said tentative master, and communication is conducted, whereinsaid radio terminals comprise:
- a self-terminal information storing means for storing terminal information of its own;
an other terminal information storing means for temporarily storing terminal information which is transmitted from other terminals; and
a master determining means for determining a terminal appropriate for being a tentative master, based on said stored terminal information, and a network is temporarily constructed by making said determined radio terminal to be said tentative master.

Abstract
A radio terminal 1 has a self-terminal information storing section 4 for storing terminal information of its own, an other terminal information storing section 3 for temporarily storing terminal information which is sent from other radio terminals, and a master determining section 2 for determining a radio terminal appropriate for being a tentative master, based on the stored terminal information. This master determining section 2 determines the tentative master based on the specified information of the terminal information such as transmission power, battery information and network address information. Since, if a user selects an appropriate radio terminal and starts the construction of a temporary network, the radio terminal acquires terminal information of all other terminals and determined an optimum tentative master, the network is then constructed while being the determined tentative master as a center, and communication can be conducted.
