Abstract
A system and method of auto-pairing in a wireless network audio system is provided. The auto-pairing method including: entering, by an audio source device, an auto-pairing mode in response to power being supplied; retrieving, by the audio source device, a peripheral wireless speaker; and providing, by the audio source device, a home identifier (ID) for pairing with the wireless speaker in response to the audio source device retrieving the wireless speaker.
Claims14
An auto-pairing method of a wireless network audio system, the auto-pairing method comprising:
- entering, by an audio source device, an auto-pairing mode in response to power being supplied to the audio source device;
- retrieving, by the audio source device, a wireless speaker;
- and
- providing, by the audio source device, a home identifier (ID) for pairing to the retrieved wireless speaker.
An auto-pairing method of a wireless network audio system, the auto-pairing method comprising:
- entering, by a wireless speaker having a wireless network function, an auto-pairing mode in response to power being supplied to the wireless speaker;
- retrieving, by the wireless speaker, an audio source device;
- outputting, by the wireless speaker, an audio signal in an audio frequency band in response to the retrieving the audio source device;
- and
- providing, by the audio source device, a home identifier (ID) for pairing with the wireless speaker in response to the audio source device receiving the audio signal through a built-in microphone.
An auto-pairing method of a wireless network audio system, the auto-pairing method comprising:
- entering, by a wireless speaker having a wireless network function, an auto-pairing mode in response to power being supplied to the wireless speaker;
- retrieving, by the wireless speaker, a wireless network hub;
- outputting, by the wireless speaker, an audio signal in an audio frequency band in response to the retrieving the wireless network hub;
- and
- providing, by the wireless network hub, a home identifier (ID) for pairing to the wireless speaker in response to the wireless network hub receiving the audio signal through a built-in microphone.
A wireless network audio system having an auto-pairing function, the wireless network audio system comprising:
- a wireless speaker configured to enter an auto-pairing mode in response to power being supplied to the wireless speaker, and to output an audio signal in an audio frequency band;
- and
- an audio source device configured to receive the audio signal through a built-in microphone in order to recognize a pairing request signal, and to provide a home identifier (ID) for pairing with the wireless speaker.

- an audio source device;
- a wireless speaker configured to enter an auto-pairing mode in response to power being supplied to the wireless speaker, and to output an audio signal in an audio frequency band;
- and
- a network hub configured to be connected to the audio source device through a wireless network access point, to receive the audio signal through a built-in microphone in order to recognize a pairing request signal, and to provide a home identifier (ID) for pairing with the wireless speaker.
An auto-pairing method of an audio source device of a wireless network audio system, the auto-pairing method comprising:
- entering an auto-pairing mode in response to power being supplied;
- searching for a wireless speaker;
- and
- providing a home identifier (ID) for pairing with the wireless speaker.
An auto-pairing method of a wireless speaker of a wireless network audio system, the auto-pairing method comprising:
- entering an auto-pairing mode when power is supplied;
- retrieving an audio source device;
- outputting an audio signal in an audio frequency band;
- and
- receiving, from the audio source device, a home identifier (ID) for pairing with the audio source device in response to the audio source device receiving the audio signal.
