METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING NEAR-FIELD COMMUNICATION (NFC) BETWEEN PORTABLE TELEPHONE AND HEARING AID, NFC AVAILABLE HEARING AID, AND NFC AVAILABLE PORTABLE TELEPHONE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for establishing near-field communication between a portable telephone and a hearing aid.;SOLUTION: In a method for establishing near-field communication (NFC) between an NFC available portable telephone and an NFC available hearing aid, existence of the hearing aid in an NFC effective communication range is detected at the portable telephone. When the existence of the hearing aid is not detected, data representing a speech signal received by the portable telephone is directed toward a loudspeaker that is provided with the portable telephone and provided for outputting an audio signal, to reproduce the speech represented by the speech signal by means of the loudspeaker. When the existence of the hearing aid is detected, streaming of the data representing the speech signal received by the portable telephone to the hearing aid via NFC transceivers respectively provided with the portable telephone and the hearing aid, is performed to reproduce the speech represented by the speech signal by means of an audio receiver provided with the hearing aid.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT
