Abstract: The present description relates to a BAN (Body Area Network) wireless communication control method, and more particularly, to a BAN wireless communication control method to which a selective discovery technique is applied. The present invention provides a BAN wireless communication control method, comprising the steps of transmitting a discovery request frame including a selective standard profile, and receiving a discovery response frame from a host that provides at least one of services specified in the selective standard profile.

Abstract: The present description relates to a cache based ZigBee network discovery method. A first service profile that specifies a service selected by a user is generated, and it is determined whether previously stored ZigBee network related information includes information about a service providing network that provides the service specified by the first service profile. A first network discovery procedure is performed when it is determined that the previously stored ZigBee network related information does not include the information about the service providing network, and a second network discovery procedure is carried out when it is determined that the previously stored ZigBee network related information includes at least one piece of information about the service providing network.

Abstract: There is provided a communication middleware apparatus for a host device, including: a profile manager configured to receive specification information of a guest device through a Low-rate Wireless Personal Area Network (LR-WPAN) module; an application program manager configured to search for an application program for a host device that has to be newly installed or updated, based on the specification information of the guest device, and to install or update the found application program for the host device in the host device; and a firmware manager configured to search for firmware for the guest device that has to be updated based on the specification information of the guest device, and to transmit the found firmware for the guest device to the guest device through the LR-WPAN module.
