FI117262B - Wireless agent application provision method for ad-hoc type short distance connection, selects and collects information and sends it to telephone over same transmission path over which requested visiting card is received - Google Patents

Abstract

An application distribution unit identifies the address of an intelligent telephone on the basis of wireless connection, and determines the type of information based on the contents of a visiting card. The distribution unit selects and collects the information and sends it to the telephone over the same transmission path over which the requested visiting card is received. An independent claim is also included for software product for providing wireless agent application for ad-hoc type short distance connections.

WIRELESS AGENT APPLICATION FOR COMMUNICATIONS

The present invention relates to a method for providing a wireless agent application for local communications. The present invention also relates to a software product stored on storage media for providing wireless agent adaptation II for close-ups.

For example, WO-A1-03015315 discloses an agent for short-range Bluetooth, so-called. Promineo-raoming agent that supports the handopver / roaming mechanism in the wired network section and monitors all 10 Bluetooth devices in the service area. Ko. the agent disclosed in the publication directs the establishment of the connections. Ko. on the system, Promineo-AP connects Promineo-DT via l_AN, informs BD ADDR on Promineo-RA and moves DT clock, establishes a connection according to Promineo-RA's command, and performs a proxy function to relay the PPP schema , and Promineo-RA acts as a PPP server to process the PPP connection to DT on the subnet containing the NAPs, restores the PPP connection through tunnel endpoint redirection after the handshake mechanism is completed, thereby maintaining the previous PPP connection during the handshake / roaming mechanism, regardless of the Bluetooth link being disconnected.

It is another object of the present invention to provide a wireless agent for a smartphone comprising a software component both in the smartphone and in the base station. The agent automates the installation of software on the smartphone, the configuration of the software on the smartphone, and provides the possibility of communication between the smartphones through the access points, making games, software, advertisements and other media between phones from the access points to phones fully transparent.

* 9 9: #e; 'Details of the method, hardware: ···: and software product of the invention are set forth in the appended claims.

; 30 In this case, wireless transmission means Bluetooth and / or: [[[: WLAN], which enables ad hoc communication between devices.

In the following, the invention will be explained in more detail by way of example * * · T. / with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: * * *: * Figure 1 illustrates the architecture of an agent software and: V 35 Figure 2 illustrates an exemplary use.

*! * “The agent offers a so-called. a cradle software whose function is to provide functionality for communication between base station t and smartphone 2 117262, and communication between smart phones 2 via base stations 1. Smart phones do not need to be connected to the same access point, but access points! can communicate with each other over a network, such as Ethemet over TCP / IP.

5 The Agent has the ability to adjust which software can be installed automatically. Thus, for example, software from a particular manufacturer can always be allowed, or, for example, adware can always be banned from being installed.

The agent also provides interfaces to which software developers can provide linking blocks for third-party plug-ins. software.

The agent automatically installs software on the smartphone 1, configures the software on the smartphone, and provides the ability for smartphones to communicate with each other through access points, making games, software, ads, and other media between phones, from access points to phones fully transparent.

Example Use (See Figure 2): ^ 20 1) The smartphone user will be within range of the base station.

2) Customer has allowed the automatic installation of adware on the smartphone: · 'lime. Customer has also allowed all adware extensions]. his phone.

| . * 3) From the agent software of the phone, it automatically transfers and installs adware software on the smartphone. The transfer takes place from the base station of step 1).

4) The phone automatically sucks in different adware extensions and starts ·· ·: rotating them in the adware. It is noteworthy that in this case the plugin means advertising itself.

This exemplary use enables context-dependent advertising material to be sent to the phone and automatically displayed.

*** *. ***. The agent programs and the base station software handle the migration and installation,. \ agent programs provides interfaces on which ad serving software: authors can make their own software and allow themselves to create ads! ...: system.

: ***: 35 It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the various embodiments of the invention are not limited to the example given above, but may vary within the scope of the following claims.
