Abstract

A display communication processing apparatus including a plurality of antennas, a link controller, a communication controller and a display, wherein the plurality of antennas are provided on a display screen of the display, a with link a n adjacent display communication processing apparatus via a first antenna of the plurality of antennas is established by the link controller, a network is connected via the first antenna by the communication controller, a predetermined communication setting for a third antenna of the plurality of antennas is set by the communication controller, when a connection request is received from a terminal apparatus via a second antenna of the plurality of antennas, and a service from the network to the terminal apparatus via the third antenna is provided by the communication controller.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A display communication processing apparatus including a plurality of antennas, a link controller, a communication controller and a display, wherein
the plurality of antennas are provided on a display screen of the display, a link with an adjacent display communication processing apparatus via a first antenna of the plurality of antennas is established by the link controller, a network is connected via the first antenna by the communication controller, a predetermined communication setting for a third antenna of the plurality of antennas is set by the communication controller, when a connection request is received from a terminal apparatus via a second antenna of the plurality of antennas, and a service from the network to the terminal apparatus via the third antenna is provided by the communication controller.

2 . The display communication processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein identification information of the terminal apparatus is provided to the terminal apparatus, when an authentication request is received from the terminal apparatus via the third antenna by the communication controller.

3 . The display communication processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the identification information of the terminal apparatus is a hash string generated from display communication processing apparatus authentication data obtained from an authentication authorization server.

4 . The display communication processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein a terminal address of the terminal apparatus, the identification information of the terminal apparatus, the display communication processing apparatus authentication data and data of a set of a service and a network to be connected are cached in a data storage, and the periodically cached data is uploaded to a history management server, when a request for a location information service to which the identification information of the terminal apparatus is attached is received from the terminal apparatus by the communication controller via the third antenna.

5 . The display communication processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein a data message including service data for the location information service generated by a service providing server based on data stored in the history management server transmitted from a communication control server is received via the first antenna.

6 . The display communication processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the service from the network is provided to the terminal apparatus by transmitting the service data of the location information service included in a data message to the terminal apparatus via the third antenna by the communication controller.

7 . The display communication processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the service from the network is provided to the terminal apparatus by transferring the service data to the adjacent display communication processing apparatus at a handover destination via the link with the adjacent display communication processing apparatus and by transmitting the service data to the terminal apparatus via the third antenna of the plurality of antennas of the adjacent display communication processing apparatus by the communication controller of the adjacent display communication processing apparatus at a handover destination, when the terminal apparatus has moved and handed over to the adjacent display communication processing apparatus.

8 . A terminal apparatus that transmits a request for a location information service to which identification information of a terminal apparatus provided by a display communication processing apparatus is added to the display communication processing apparatus.

9 . The terminal apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the identification information of the terminal apparatus is a hash string that the display communication processing apparatus generates from display communication processing apparatus authentication data obtained from an authentication authorization server.

10 . A control method for a display communication processing apparatus performed by a computer included in the display communication processing apparatus including a plurality of antennas and a display, the plurality of antennas are provided on a display screen of the display, the method comprising:
establishing a link with an adjacent display communication processing apparatus via a first antenna of the plurality of antennas; connecting to a network via the first antenna; performing a predetermined communication setting for a third antenna of the plurality of antennas, when a connection request is received from a terminal apparatus via a second antenna of the plurality of antennas; and providing a service from the network to the terminal apparatus via the third antenna.

11 . The control method according to claim 10 , further comprising:
providing identification information of the terminal apparatus to the terminal apparatus, when an authentication request is received from the terminal apparatus via the third antenna.

12 . The control method according to claim 11 , wherein the identification information of the terminal apparatus is a hash string generated from display communication processing apparatus authentication data obtained from an authentication authorization server.

13 . The control method according to claim 12 , further comprising:
caching a terminal address of the terminal apparatus, the identification information of the terminal apparatus, the display communication processing apparatus authentication data and data of a set of a service and a network to be connected in a data storage, and uploading the periodically cached data to a history management server, when a request for a location information service to which the identification information of the terminal apparatus is attached is received from the terminal apparatus via the third antenna.

14 . The control method according to claim 13 , further comprising:
receiving a data message including service data for the location information service generated by a service providing server based on data stored in the history management server transmitted from a communication control server via the first antenna.

15 . The control method according to claim 14 , further comprising:
providing the service from the network to the terminal apparatus by transmitting the service data of the location information service included in a data message to the terminal apparatus via the third antenna.

16 . The control method according to claim 14 , further comprising:
providing the service from the network to the terminal apparatus by transferring the service data to the adjacent display communication processing apparatus at a handover destination via the link with the adjacent display communication processing apparatus and by transmitting the service data to the terminal apparatus via the third antenna of the plurality of antennas of the adjacent display communication processing apparatus by the adjacent display communication processing apparatus at a handover destination, when the terminal apparatus has moved and handed over to the adjacent display communication processing apparatus.
