Abstract
An embodiment of the disclosure provides a control method between a Bluetooth module and a wireless LAN module, for an electronic device with a Bluetooth module and a WiMAX module. The method comprises: determining whether the priority of the Bluetooth module is higher than that of the WiMAX module; determining whether data transmitted or received by the WiMAX module has to be protected; and when the priority of the Bluetooth module is not higher than that the WiMAX module and the data transmitted or received by the WiMAX module has to be protected, setting the Bluetooth module to be in an inactive mode.
Claims17
A control method between a Bluetooth module and a wireless LAN module, for an electronic device with a Bluetooth module and a WiMAX module, the method comprising:
- determining whether the priority of the Bluetooth module is higher than the priority of the WiMAX module;
- determining whether data transmitted or received by the WiMAX module has to be protected;
- and
- when the priority of the Bluetooth module is not higher than the priority of the WiMAX module and the data transmitted or received by the WiMAX module has to be protected, setting the Bluetooth module to be in an inactive mode.
An electronic device comprising:
- a Bluetooth module;
- a wireless LAN module;
- a WiMAX module;
- and
- a logic circuit to select one of the wireless LAN module and the WiMAX module to be electronically connected to the Bluetooth module, to determine whether the priority of the Bluetooth module is higher than the priority of the WiMAX module, and to determine whether data transmitted or received by the WiMAX module has to be protected,
- wherein when the logic circuit determines that the priority of the Bluetooth module is not higher than the priority of the WiMAX module and the data transmitted or received by the WiMAX module has to be protected, the Bluetooth module is set to be in an inactive mode.
