Wireless communication system, terminal, message sending method, and program for allowing terminal to execute the method
First Claim
1. A wireless communication system including a plurality of terminals, comprising:
- a first terminal configured to send a signal including beacon information; and
a second terminal configured to perform ranging to determine a distance with the first terminal in response to the signal, and to make a registration request to the first terminal when the determined distance is within a first predetermined range,wherein the first terminal is configured to perform ranging to determine a distance with the second terminal in response to the registration request, and to return an acknowledgement of the registration request to the second terminal when the determined distance is within a second predetermined range,the second terminal is configured to perform ranging to determine the distance with the first terminal in response to the acknowledgement, and to make an issuance request to issue a certificate of privilege to the first terminal when the determined distance is within a third predetermined range, andthe first terminal is configured to perform ranging to determine the distance with the second terminal in response to the issuance request, and to issue a certificate of privilege to the second terminal when the determined distance is within a fourth predetermined range.

Abstract
Upon receiving a beacon, a terminal B sends a RTS control message to a terminal A before sending a registration request message to the terminal A. Upon receiving the RTS control message, the terminal A sends a CTS control message. The terminal B measures the time from when the RTS control message is sent to when the CTS control message is received so as to calculate the distance with the terminal A. If the distance with the terminal A is within a predetermined distance X1, the terminal B sends a registration request message to the terminal A. Similarly, the terminal A measures the distance with the terminal B, and sends a registration request acknowledgement message to the terminal B when the distance with the terminal B is within a predetermined distance X2.
