Communications terminal, connection destination display method, and computer program
View Patent ↗In a communications terminal, a wireless portion receives, from each PLMN, notification information including a name that specifies the PLMN and communication speed information that indicates communication speed for that PLMN. A generation portion generates a list of names included in each of the notification information received by the wireless portion, in order of communication speed shown in the communication speed information associated with the relevant name. A display portion displays the list generated by the generation portion.
1. A communications terminal connectable to a plurality of wireless networks, comprising:
a reception portion receiving, from each of the wireless networks, notification information including both identification information that specifies each of the wireless networks and communication speed information that indicates communication speed for the wireless network;
a generation portion generating a list in which the identification information included in the notification information is arranged in order of the communication speed shown in the communication speed information associated with the identification information;
a storage portion storing communication fee points indicating in multiple stages a level of communication fees involved with communication using the wireless network, in association with the identification information of the wireless network;
a communication speed point calculation portion that calculates communication speed points indicating in multiple stages a level of the communication speed, based on a communication speed shown by communication speed information included in the notification information; and
a display portion displaying the list, wherein
the generation portion generates a list in which the identification information included in notification information received by the reception portion is arranged in order of values obtained by adding communication speed points calculated by the communication speed point calculation portion based on communication speed information associated with the identification information and communication fee points stored in the storage portion in association with the identification information.
2. A communications terminal according to claim 1 , comprising:
a selection portion receiving a command indicating the wireless network which is selected while displaying the list on the display portion and outputting the identification information corresponding to the selected wireless network; and
a connection portion connecting to the wireless network corresponding to the identification information input from the selection portion.
3. A connection destination display method that uses a communications terminal connectable to a plurality of wireless networks, comprising:
a step of receiving from each of the wireless networks, notification information including both identification information that specifies the wireless network and communication speed information that indicates communication speed for the wireless network;
calculating communication speed points indicating in multiple stages a level of the communication speed, based on a communication speed shown by communication speed information included in the notification information;
a step of generating a list in which identification information included in the notification information is arranged in order of the communication speed shown in the communication speed information associated with the identification information, wherein the identification information included in the notification information is arranged in order of values obtained by adding communication speed points associated with the identification information and communication fee points stored in a storage portion in association with the identification information, and wherein the communication fee points stored in the storage portion indicate in multiple stages a level of communication fees involved with communication using the wireless network, in association with the identification information of the wireless network; and
a step of displaying the list.
4. A computer program stored in a computer readable non-transitory recording medium of a communications terminal connectable to a plurality of wireless networks, comprising:
a command for receiving from each of the wireless networks, notification information including both identification information that specifies the wireless network and communication speed information that indicates communication speed for the wireless network;
a command for calculating communication speed points indicating in multiple stages a level of the communication speed, based on a communication speed shown by communication speed information included in the notification information;
a command for generating a list in which identification information included in the notification information is arranged in order of the communication speed shown in the communication speed information associated with the identification information, wherein the identification information included in the notification information is arranged in order of values obtained by adding communication speed points associated with the identification information and communication fee points stored in a storage portion in association with the identification information, and wherein the communication fee points stored in the storage portion indicate in multiple stages a level of communication fees involved with communication using the wireless network, in association with the identification information of the wireless network; and
a command for displaying the list.
