Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are provided for sharing contents with a sink device in a wireless communication system. A first set of information is received from at least one sink device. A connection is established to the at least one sink device based on the first set of information. Capability information of the at least one sink device is received. A second set of information related to the capability information is sent to the at least one sink device.
Claims32
A method of a source device for sharing contents with a sink device in a wireless communication system, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving a first set of information from at least one sink device;
- establishing a connection to the at least one sink device based on the first set of information;
- receiving capability information of the at least one sink device;
- and
- sending a second set of information related to the capability information to the at least one sink device.
