COMMUNICATION DEVICE, RELAY DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18233534 titled 'COMMUNICATION DEVICE, RELAY DEVICE, CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a communication device that wirelessly transmits a request signal to other devices to gather information about the communication condition with a specific device. Based on the responses received, the device selects another device to transfer the communication and determines the communication method to be used. It then establishes a connection with the selected device and requests it to relay the communication.
