摘要:
A portable terminal monitors a signal level of a short-range wireless signal from a wireless communication apparatus. If the signal level drops so low that a state of connection for short-range wireless communications cannot be maintained between the two apparatuses, use of predetermined functions of the portable terminal is limited. A short-range wireless communication facility of the portable terminal and the wireless communication apparatus move into a particular operation mode if communications do not occur therebetween at least for a predetermined time period. In monitoring the signal level of the wireless signal from the wireless communication apparatus in the particular operation mode, the portable terminal reduces a response speed at which to detect a signal level change. This causes the wireless communication apparatus to delay issuing a request for an increase in transmission power, thereby reducing unevenness of the working distance at which to alert a user to the unusual distance traveled between the two apparatuses or beyond which to limit the use of some functions of the portable terminal.

A communication system including a communication terminal apparatus and a wireless key apparatus in wireless communication is provided. The communication terminal apparatus includes a first communication unit operable to receive a first wireless signal, and a first control unit operable to determine a distance between the communication terminal apparatus and the wireless key apparatus based on the received first wireless signal, wherein the first control unit limits a predetermined function of the communication terminal apparatus based on determining the distance. The wireless key apparatus includes a second communication unit operable to receive a second wireless signal, and a second control unit operable to determine the distance between the communication terminal apparatus and the wireless key apparatus based on the received second wireless signal, whereby the second control unit decreases transmission power associated with the second communication unit based on the determined distance.

In a case when a wireless communication is carried out between a communication terminal apparatus and a wireless key apparatus in which one of the two apparatuses which carry out the communication becomes a master and the other one becomes a slave, the slave detects a signal from the master and the wireless communication is carried out by a wireless communication system executing the wireless connection between the two apparatuses, it is constituted such that each of the communication terminal apparatus and the wireless key apparatus includes communication means for carrying out the wireless communication, and control means; and in a case when the wireless communication state between the communication terminal apparatus and the wireless key apparatus is a non-connection state, the side which becomes the master is to transmit a signal asking for a “response from the slave” intermittently by changing the period into a plurality of steps in response to the non-connection time period and the side which becomes the slave is to carry out a reception for searching a signal from the master intermittently by changing the period into a plurality of steps in response to the non-connection time period. It may be expected by this constitution that a communication terminal apparatus such as a mobile telephone terminal can be connected wirelessly with another terminal apparatus rapidly by low power consumption.

It is constituted such that a function limitation is to be applied to a communication terminal apparatus of a mobile telephone terminal or the like at a place far from wireless key by a constant distance and it is also constituted such that after the function limitation is applied once, it is made impossible for the function limitation to be released until the communication terminal. The transmission power is controlled in response to the state by utilizing a phenomenon that the communication possible distance between the apparatuses changes according to the amount of the transmission power wireless-communicated. Specifically, with respect to the transmission power on the occasion when a connection operation is carried out between the communication terminal apparatus and the wireless key, it is constituted for the transmission power from at least one of apparatuses such that the transmission power when releasing the function limitation is made smaller than the transmission power when applying the function limitation. Further, after the function limitation is released, the transmission power is again increased to the original transmission power when applying the function limitation.

It was constituted such that in a case when a function of the communication terminal apparatus 10 is limited in response to a wireless communication state between the communication terminal apparatus 10 and the wireless key apparatus 50, it is controlled in the wireless key apparatus 50 such that a communication connection with the communication terminal apparatus 10 is to be carried out; the function of the terminal apparatus 10 is to limited in the communication terminal apparatus 10 in a case when a predetermined communication state cannot be maintained with respect to the wireless key apparatus 50 and at the same time; and in a case when it is detected that the terminal apparatus 10 exists in a predetermined region such as in the vicinity of the apparatus 90 or the like, the function of the terminal apparatus 10 is not to be limited regardless of the communication state with respect to the wireless key apparatus 50. In this manner, low power consumption can be attempted in a case when a security process of a communication terminal apparatus such as a mobile telephone terminal is carried out by a wireless communication.
