Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for pairing wireless communication devices through a simple process by selecting a wireless communication device desired by a user by receiving beacons of the wireless communication devices connected to IEEE 802.15.4 wireless communication network and setting pairing with a wireless communication device corresponding to a beacon with the greatest LQI (Link Quality Index) among the received beacons by a pairing request device needing pairing, and an apparatus for the same. In accordance with the present invention, the method for pairing the wireless communication devices connected to the IEEE 802.15.4 communication network in order to transceive wireless data including: a) an initial setting step of trying pairing to have access to one of the wireless communication devices by the pairing request device; b) a search step of performing active scan to search the wireless data received in the pairing request device; c) an inquiry step of requesting the beacons to the wireless communication devices and receiving the beacons from the wireless communication devices; and d) a pairing step of selecting one of the beacons received in the pairing request device in order to request the wireless data to the corresponding wireless communication device.
