Remote controlling apparatus and remote controlling method
First Claim
1. A remote controlling apparatus for a remote controlling system of wireless communication type, comprising:
- means for broadcasting a predetermined signal in a lower transmission output state than in a regular communication state;
means for receiving acknowledge and reception state electric field intensity information from at least one device under remote control;
means for detecting a nearest device under remote control based on a highest reception state electric field intensity information received from the at least one device under remote control; and
means for setting the nearest device as an object device under remote control.

Abstract
A remote controlling apparatus for a remote controlling system of wireless communication type is disclosed. The remote controlling apparatus includes a broadcasting section, a receiving section, a detecting section, and a setting section. The broadcasting section broadcasts a predetermined signal in a lower transmission output state than in a regular communication state. The receiving section receives acknowledge and reception state electric field intensity information from at least one device under remote control. The detecting section detects a device under remote control having highest reception state electric field intensity as a nearest device. The setting section sets the nearest device as an object device under remote control.
