Abstract
A method and an apparatus are provided for performing wireless communication between terminals. An inquiry message is transmitted to a neighboring terminal. An inquiry response message is received from the neighboring terminal. It is determined whether the apparatus overlaps the neighboring terminal. When the apparatus overlaps the neighboring terminal, paging is automatically performed, without intervention of a user of the apparatus, and pairing between the apparatus and the neighboring terminal is established.
Claims20
A method for performing wireless communication between terminals, by a main terminal, the method comprising the steps of:
- executing an application by the main terminal;
- presenting a screen for displaying the executed application on the main terminal;
- connecting to a neighboring terminal by a wireless communication;
- providing, to the neighboring terminal, a portion of the screen being displayed on the main terminal;
- and
- presenting another portion of the screen on the main terminal while the portion of the screen provided from the main terminal is presented on the neighboring terminal,
- wherein when the main terminal is overlapped by the neighboring terminal vertically, the screen is vertically divided into a first vertically divided portion and a second vertically divided portion,
- wherein the second vertically divided portion is more overlapped by the neighboring terminal than the first vertically divided portion, and
- wherein the first vertically divided portion is presented on the main terminal, and the second vertically divided portion is presented on the neighboring terminal.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing a program, which when executed implements a method for performing wireless communication between terminals by a main terminal, the method comprising the steps of:
- executing an application by the main terminal;
- presenting a screen for displaying the executed application on the main terminal;
- connecting to a neighboring terminal by a wireless communication;
- providing, to the neighboring terminal, a portion of the screen being displayed on the main terminal;
- and
- presenting another portion of the screen on the main terminal while the portion of the screen provided from the main terminal is presented on the neighboring terminal,
- wherein when the main terminal is overlapped by the neighboring terminal vertically, the screen is vertically divided into a first vertically divided portion and a second vertically divided portion,
- wherein the second vertically divided portion is more overlapped by the neighboring terminal than the first vertically divided portion, and
- wherein the first vertically divided portion is presented on the main terminal, and the second vertically divided portion is presented on the neighboring terminal.
An apparatus for performing wireless communication between the apparatus and a neighboring terminal, the apparatus comprising:
- a communication unit;
- a touch screen for displaying images and sensing an input on the touch screen;
- a controller for:
- executing an application;
- presenting a screen displaying an application window for the executed application on the touch screen;
- connecting to the neighboring terminal by a wireless communication;
- providing, to the neighboring terminal, a portion of the screen being displayed on the touch screen of the apparatus;
- and
- presenting another portion of the screen on the touch screen of the apparatus while the portion of the screen provided from the apparatus is presented on the neighboring terminal,
- wherein when the apparatus is overlapped by the neighboring terminal vertically, the screen is vertically divided into a first vertically divided portion and a second vertically divided portion,
- wherein the second vertically divided portion is more overlapped by the neighboring terminal than the first vertically divided portion, and
- wherein the first vertically divided portion is presented on the apparatus, and the second vertically divided portion is presented on the neighboring terminal.
