Wireless Device Connection Setup via Tag Mediator
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users find it difficult to set up connection-setting information for wireless LAN connections, especially for direct communication between devices, as inputting this information is complex and often requires technical knowledge, and existing solutions do not ensure a one-to-one connection between devices.
Innovation Solution
A wireless communication system where two devices communicate using different protocols, with one device acting as an access point and the other as a station, using a combination of wireless and wired communication methods to transmit and store setting-related information, allowing devices to connect securely and efficiently without manual input.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If connection-setting information is manually input by users, then wireless LAN connection can be established, but the operation becomes complex and difficult for non-technical users
Solution Approach 1:
The access point performs preliminary actions by automatically generating connection-setting information and storing it in a tag before the user arrives. This eliminates the need for users to manually input complex wireless LAN settings, resolving the contradiction between reliable connection establishment and ease of operation.
Solution Approach 2:
A tag serves as an intermediary carrier that stores connection-setting information. The tag mediates between the access point and the communication device, allowing automatic transfer of settings without manual user input, thus simplifying operations while ensuring reliable connection.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple communication devices connect to the same access point, then network coverage is improved, but one-to-one connection cannot be ensured
Solution Approach 1:
The connection-setting information is segmented by including unique identification information for each communication device. This segmentation allows the access point to distinguish between different devices and establish separate one-to-one connections while maintaining the ability to serve multiple devices simultaneously.
Solution Approach 2:
Each communication device receives customized connection-setting information tailored to its specific identification. This local quality approach ensures that while multiple devices can connect to the access point, each connection maintains its unique one-to-one characteristics through device-specific settings.
3Adaptability or versatility
If connection-setting information is transmitted repeatedly, then multiple devices can connect, but information security may be compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The connection-setting information includes dynamic parameters such as time-limited validity periods and device-specific identification information. These parameter changes ensure that even if information is transmitted repeatedly, each transmission is secure and targeted to specific devices at specific times, preventing unauthorized access.

AI summary
A wireless communication system includes two wireless communication devices. A first wireless communication device includes a first communicator and a second communicator. A second wireless communication device includes a third communicator and a fourth communicator. One of the two wireless communication devices includes a memory configured to store setting-related information. The second communicator or the fourth communicator is configured to transmit first setting-related information. Each time the first setting-related information is transmitted, a first processor is configured to generate the setting-related information different from the first setting-related information and the fourth communicator or the second communicator is configured to hold the setting-related information generated by the first processor as the first setting-related information.
