Wireless communication apparatus

1. A wireless communication apparatus comprising:

a unit configured to set up a first mode where the wireless communication apparatus is connectable with at least a first wireless communication device and a second wireless communication device and accepts a connection request from the first wireless communication device;

a unit configured to establish a connection with the first wireless communication device;

a unit configured to discover a completion of the connection with the first wireless communication device;

a unit configured to set up a second mode where, in a state where the connection with the first wireless communication device is established, the wireless communication apparatus is inhibited from establishing a connection with the second wireless communication device with respect to a connection request from the second wireless communication device; and

a unit configured to shift from the first mode to the second mode when said discovering unit discovers the completion of the connection.

2. An apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second mode includes a non-discoverable mode in which the wireless communication apparatus does not respond to an inquiry signal.

3. An apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second mode includes a non-connectable mode in which no connection is performed for paging.

4. An apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the second mode includes a non-discoverable mode based on a Bluetooth standard.

5. An apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the second mode includes a non-connectable mode based on a Bluetooth standard.

6. An apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the non-discoverable mode does not respond to an inquiry.

7. An apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the non-connectable mode sends a connection denial response to a paging signal.

8. An apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the non-connectable mode does not respond to a paging signal.

9. An apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second mode includes a non-discoverable mode and non-connectable mode based on a Bluetooth standard.

10. An apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second mode inhibits connection with another wireless communication apparatus.

11. An apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second mode is canceled after end of communication with the first wireless communication device.

12. A communication method in a wireless communication apparatus, comprising:

setting up a first mode where the wireless communication apparatus is connectable with at least a first wireless communication device and a second wireless communication device and accepts a connection request from the first wireless communication device;

establishing a connection with the first wireless communication device;

discovering a completion of the connection with the wireless communication apparatus;

setting up a second mode where, in a state where the connection with the first wireless communication device is established, the wireless communication apparatus is inhibited from establishing a connection with the second wireless communication device with respect to a connection request from the second wireless communication device; and

shifting from the first mode to the second mode after the completion of the connection.

13. A method according to claim 12 , wherein the second mode includes a non-discoverable mode in which the wireless communication apparatus does not respond to an inquiry signal.

14. A method according to claim 12 , wherein the second mode includes a non-connectable mode in which no connection is performed for paging.

15. A method according to claim 13 , wherein the second mode includes a non-discoverable mode based on a Bluetooth standard.

16. A method according to claim 14 , wherein the second mode includes a non-connectable mode based on a Bluetooth standard.

17. A method according to claim 15 , wherein the wireless communication apparatus does not respond to an inquiry signal from another wireless communication apparatus after shifting to the second mode.

18. A method according to claim 16 , wherein the wireless communication apparatus sends a connection denial response to a paging signal after shifting to the second mode.

19. A method according to claim 16 , wherein the wireless communication apparatus does not respond to a paging signal after shifting to the second mode.

20. A communication apparatus comprising:

a unit configured to establish a connection with a first wireless communication apparatus in a first mode; and

a unit configured to control a connection from a second wireless communication apparatus when the connection with the first wireless communication apparatus is established, wherein the control unit sets up a second mode in which, in a state where the connection with the first wireless communication device is established, the communication apparatus is inhibited from establishing a connection with the second wireless communication apparatus with respect to a connection request from the second wireless communication device.

21. A communication method in a communication apparatus, comprising:

establishing a connection with a first wireless communication apparatus in a first mode; and

controlling a connection from a second wireless communication apparatus when the connection with the first wireless communication apparatus is established, wherein controlling includes setting up a second mode in which, in a state where the connection with the first wireless communication device is established, the communication apparatus is inhibited from establishing a connection with the second wireless communication apparatus with respect to a connection request from the second wireless communication device.
