ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR WLAN COMMUNICATION WITH PLURALITY OF EXTERNAL DEVICES AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18156613 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR WLAN COMMUNICATION WITH PLURALITY OF EXTERNAL DEVICES AND OPERATION METHOD THEREOF
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electronic device that supports WLAN communication in multiple frequency bands. The device can switch between different access points (APs) based on the capability and connection information of an external device for WLAN-based direct communication. It can perform direct communication with the external device through a different frequency band.
- The electronic device supports WLAN communication in multiple frequency bands.
- It can switch between APs based on the capability and connection information of an external device.
- The device can perform direct communication with the external device through a different frequency band.
Potential Applications
- Smartphones and tablets that can seamlessly switch between different APs for direct communication with other devices.
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices that can dynamically switch between APs to optimize communication.
- Wireless routers and access points that can intelligently manage connections with external devices.
Problems Solved
- Simplifies the process of establishing direct communication between devices by automatically switching APs.
- Improves the efficiency and reliability of WLAN-based direct communication.
- Enables devices to adapt to different frequency bands for better performance.
Benefits
- Seamless and efficient direct communication between devices.
- Enhanced flexibility and adaptability in WLAN communication.

Original Abstract Submitted
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a WLAN communication circuit supporting a plurality of frequency bands, and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to perform WLAN communication with a first AP through a first channel of a first frequency band, to when an external device for performing WLAN-based direct communication is detected during the WLAN communication with the first AP, check capability of the external device and/or WLAN connection information of the external device, to switch the WLAN communication with the first AP to WLAN communication with a second AP based on a second channel of a second frequency band different from the first frequency band, based on the capability of the external device and/or the WLAN connection information of the external device, and to perform direct communication with the external device through the second channel of the second frequency band.
