COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, COMMUNICATION DEVICE, AND COMMUNICATION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18281876 titled 'COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, COMMUNICATION DEVICE, AND COMMUNICATION METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The communication device described in the patent application is designed to easily make contact with a destination user by selecting the appropriate network for communication based on the user's identification information. Here is a simplified explanation of the abstract:

• Receiving unit gathers communication information, including identification details of the destination user, from a first terminal.
• Processor selects the network (either the first or second network) based on the identification information.
• Unit transmits information related to the communication to the selected network for connection with the user's communication module.

Original Abstract Submitted

To provide a communication device, a communication system, and a communication method that can easily make contact, the communication device comprises: a receiving unit configured to receive communication information including identification information on a destination user from a first terminal; at least one processor configured to execute an instructions to select, on the basis of the identification information, one among a first network to which a first communication module associated with the user can be connected and a second network to which a second communication module associated with the user can be connected and which is different from the first network; and a unit configured to transmit, via the network selected by the at least one processor, information related to the communication information to the communication module that can be connected to the selected network, among the first communication module and the second communication module.
