摘要:
A hands-free device includes a communication unit that obtains a Media Access Control (MAC) address of a portable terminal device from the portable terminal device, and an address storing unit that registers one of the MAC addresses that is obtained by the communication unit into the address storing unit itself in response to a registration trigger signal. The hands-free device also includes a control unit that reads the registered MAC address from the address storing unit and specifies a portable terminal device having the read registered address as a communication target device in response to a search trigger signal.
摘要:
There is provided a transmission system which realizes more flexible resource allocation. A resource management means 12, upon receipt of a resource allocation request including a minimum bandwidth and a maximum bandwidth, reduces allocated resources stored in an allocated-resource request table 13 to the corresponding minimum bandwidths. As such, the request is accepted with higher probability. When releasing an allocated resource, the resource management means 12 increases the allocated-resources of the allocated-resource requests to bandwidths within a range of the corresponding maximum bandwidths. Accordingly, the resources are utilized more effectively. When releasing the resource, the resource management means 12 notifies, by broadcast, all the communication apparatuses that free resources are increased. Thus, for the communication apparatus whose request has been rejected, the resource is allocatable.

A bidirectional remote control system including a bidirectional remote controller and first and second devices controlled thereby, wherein the first device is for receiving a request of device information from the bidirectional remote controller and for sending the device information to the bidirectional remote controller. The bidirectional remote controller is also for sending the request of the device information to the first device, receiving the device information from the first device and sending the device information to the second device, which is for receiving the device information from the bidirectional remote controller.

A television system which includes a television set with cathode-ray tube, a VCR deck, a disc player, a tape deck and a radio tuner in one unit operated and controlled by a single remote control device. The cathode-ray tube displays a menu including a guide to help one use the remote control device. The television system also includes automatically selecting a preset or use determined favorite device, e.g. television set, and/or a channel when the system is turned on.
