  • Patent number: 10616951
    Abstract: A detector detects communication from a transmitting terminal device to a receiving terminal device on a given channel. A storage stores information on the transmitting terminal device and the receiving terminal device when the detector detects the communication. A requesting unit requests the transmitting terminal device for an interruption in the communication when the detector detects the communication. A communication unit performs interrupting communication on the given channel when the transmitting terminal device stops the communication on the given channel in response to the request by the requesting unit. An invitation unit prompts the transmitting terminal device and the receiving terminal device to resume the communication on the given channel based on the information stored in the storage, when the communication unit terminates the interrupting communication.

  • Patent number: 10531300
    Abstract: In a business wireless system, a group including a plurality of terminal devices is formed and communication is performed by using at least one base station device to assign a channel to each group. A transmission unit uses a channel assigned by the base station device to a first group for transmission. An authentication processing unit authenticates a user using the terminal device. A selection unit selects one of a second group that only the terminal devices for which the authentication process is completed can subscribe to, and the first group, when the authentication process is completed. When the second group is selected, the transmission unit the channel assigned by the base station device to the second group for transmission.

  • Patent number: 8594033
    Abstract: There is provided a technique of establishing a communication between a transmitting node and a receiving node by selecting a suitable frequency band for communication without using a predetermined control channel. Firstly, a frequency band to be used as a control channel is selected from among low frequency bands, and information on frequencies and information on application's quality requirements are exchanged between the transmitting node and the receiving node using the control channel. Then, a frequency band to be used as a data channel is determined, and a communication is started. During the communication, frequency use statuses around the transmitting node and the receiving node are notified through the control channel, and when the control channel or data channel being used becomes unusable, the channel is dynamically changed.
