Abstract

A method and apparatus is described for providing location dependent information services to customers in a WAP-Bluetooth environment. WAP-Bluetooth server units are provided to customers including qualified third party developers. A WAP-Bluetooth SDK is provided to third party developers and qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications are developed thereby. Qualified applications are loaded on WAP-Bluetooth server units for providing location dependent information services. Connections are made with WAP-Bluetooth client terminals and location-dependent WAP pages are pushed toward the WAP-Bluetooth client terminals using a WAP-Bluetooth application. A WAP-Bluetooth signal is transmitted in a coverage area associated with the location dependent information service and connections made with client terminals to provide the location dependent information service. Qualified applications are registered such that applications are available to customers and third party developers in a product registry. Qualified applications are presented and provided on a trial basis to customers using a website. The SDK includes a WAP-Bluetooth development environment, WAP-Bluetooth software modules, WAP-Bluetooth application examples, a bootloader, a software platform, and a basic WAP-Bluetooth application, and documentation. The software platform includes a Bluetooth stack, an operating system, and drivers. The WAP-Bluetooth development includes a graphical user interface development tool.

54AMENDED CLAIMS[received by the International Bureau on 22 March 2002 (22.03.02); original claims 1-31 amended (6 pages)]
1. A method for configuring a mobile terminal for delivering location dependent information services in a wireless communication network, the method comprising the steps of: installing a server unit on a mobile terminal, wherein the server unit is configured with at least WAP protocol and Bluetooth protocol and wherein the configured mobile terminal comprises a mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal; configuring at least one wireless terminal with WAP protocol and Bluetooth protocol, wherein the configured wireless terminal comprises a WAP-Bluetooth customer terminal; and loading one or more qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications in a memory of the mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal, wherein the one or more qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications are developed to deliver location dependent information services to the at least one WAP-Bluetooth customer terminal.
2. A method for configuring a mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal for delivering location dependent information services to mobile WAP-Bluetooth client terminals in a wireless communication network, the method comprising the steps of: configuring a mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal with applications to connect the mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal with one or more mobile WAP- Bluetooth client terminals; and in response to connecting with the one or more mobile WAP-Bluetooth client terminals, pushing one or more location dependent WAP pages toward the one or more mobile WAP-Bluetooth client terminals using a WAP-Bluetooth application.
3. A method for configuring a mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal for delivering location dependent information services in a wireless communication network, the method comprising: 55
transmitting a WAP-Bluetooth signal in a coverage area associated with a location dependent information service; and connecting a mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal with one or more mobile WAP-Bluetooth client terminals in response to the transmitted WAP- Bluetooth signal to deliver the location dependent information service to the one or more mobile WAP-Bluetooth client terminals.
4. The method of claim 1, further including the step of registering the one or more qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications such that the one or more qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications are available to customers of the one or more qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications and to one or more third party developers in a product registry.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising: presenting the one or more qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications to one or more customers of the qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications using a website; and delivering the one or more qualified WAP-Bluetooth applications to the one or more customers through the website on a trial basis.
6. The method of claim 1, further comprising: loading a WAP-Bluetooth Software Developer Kit (SDK) on the mobile WAP-Bluetooth server terminal, wherein the SDK includes one or more of: a WAP- Bluetooth development environment, a WAP-Bluetooth software module, and documentation.
7. The method of claim 6, wherein the SDK includes WAP-Bluetooth application examples.
