Communication Terminal NFC Settings Checks Before External Login
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing communication terminal login systems do not adequately address user convenience during login processing, particularly when near-field communication settings are not properly configured, leading to unsuccessful login attempts without clear guidance or notification.
Innovation Solution
The communication terminal is equipped with a near-field communication interface, a display device, and a processor that controls operations to enable or disable wireless communication settings and provides notifications before initiating a login request, ensuring appropriate settings are in place, thereby guiding the user through the login process and preventing unnecessary operations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If the communication terminal automatically initiates login requests without checking near-field communication settings, then login speed is improved, but login reliability deteriorates due to unsuccessful attempts when settings are not configured
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary checks of near-field communication settings before initiating the login request. The control unit verifies whether near-field communication is enabled and whether the external device is properly configured before attempting login, preventing unsuccessful login attempts while maintaining efficient authentication flow.
2Reliability
If the communication terminal provides detailed settings notifications and checks before login, then login reliability is improved, but operation complexity increases due to additional user interactions required
Solution Approach 1:
The control unit provides feedback notifications to the user about the status of near-field communication settings before initiating login. When settings are not properly configured, the system notifies the user and waits for appropriate input, ensuring informed user decisions while maintaining operational simplicity through clear communication of system state.
3Loss of energy
If the communication terminal checks near-field communication settings before login, then unnecessary login attempts are reduced, but processing time increases due to additional verification steps
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs a quick preliminary verification of near-field communication settings status before initiating login attempts. This minimal verification step checks whether the communication function is enabled and the external device is detectable, preventing energy-wasting unnecessary login attempts while adding only minimal processing time through efficient status checks.

AI summary
A method of controlling a communication terminal including a near-field communication unit includes setting, as operation settings of the communication terminal, whether to enable wireless communication functions by the near-field communication unit and controlling to display a predetermined notification before displaying a screen for performing a login request upon condition that a user operation to transition to a screen for performing a login request to an external device has been received, and that settings have not been made in the setting of the communication terminal at least to enable wireless communication functions by the near-field communication unit as operation settings of the communication terminal.
