In addition, and though set communication regional service band and pattern by user oneself, the scanning process of avoiding, but the shortcoming person of being to use must know this communicate by letter regional spendable frequency band and pattern in advance.For example gsm system mostly uses 900MHz and 1800MHz in Europe, then uses 850MHz and 1900MHz in the North America.WCDMA system for example again, in Europe and Pan Asia use 2100MHz, then use 850MHz and 1900MHz in the North America, will use 1700MHz in Japan in the future.Want user's these complicated system specifications of being familiar with, will become unfriendly in the operation.
Therefore, be necessary to provide a kind of and do not need scan band and pattern, and automatically help the user to select the device and method of frequency band and pattern.
