Description

 本発明は、携帯通信機器等における、BLUETOOTH等のデータ書き換えが可能な通信時の送信側、受信側間での相互通信の信頼性保持に関する。 The present invention relates to maintaining reliability of mutual communication between a transmitting side and a receiving side during data rewritable communication such as BLUETOOTH in a mobile communication device or the like.

 携帯通信機器である従来の携帯電話機は、図4に示す構造を有していて、アンテナ部(3)、ハードスイッチ部(4)、RF部(5)、信号処理部(6)、ユーザインターフェース部(7)、音声回路部(8)、バッテリ残量検出部(9)、バッテリ(10)、スピーカ(11)、マイク(12)及び表示部(13)で構成されている。通信は基地局(1)を介して双方向通信がなされ、携帯電話機(2)はアンテナ部(3)により電波を送受信する。 A conventional mobile phone as a mobile communication device has a structure shown in FIG. 4, and includes an antenna unit (3), a hard switch unit (4), an RF unit (5), a signal processing unit (6), and a user interface. It comprises a unit (7), an audio circuit unit (8), a battery remaining amount detection unit (9), a battery (10), a speaker (11), a microphone (12), and a display unit (13). Communication is bidirectional communication via the base station (1), and the mobile phone (2) transmits and receives radio waves through the antenna section (3).

 受信時においては、受信された電波は、RF回路(5)を通じて周波数低減される。このようにして得られたデジタル信号はCPUやDSP等で実現される信号処理部(6)において出力のための信号処理がなされる。このように処理される受信信号が音声信号である場合は、音声回路部(8)においてデコードされてスピーカ(11)にて出力され、受話者に音声として伝えるよう構成されている。また、受信信号が文字情報や画像情報などの非音声信号である場合は、ユーザインターフェース部(7)に含まれる表示部(13)において画面表示がなされる。 At the time of reception, the frequency of the received radio wave is reduced through the RF circuit (5). The digital signal thus obtained is subjected to signal processing for output in a signal processing unit (6) realized by a CPU, a DSP, or the like. When the received signal processed in this way is an audio signal, the audio signal is decoded by the audio circuit unit (8), output by the speaker (11), and transmitted to the receiver as audio. When the received signal is a non-voice signal such as character information or image information, a screen is displayed on the display unit (13) included in the user interface unit (7).

 一方、送信時においては、通常の通話であれば、音声がマイク(12)から入力され、音声回路部(8)によってデジタル信号化される。文字情報や画像情報などのデータ通信であれば、ユーザインターフェース部(7)からその情報が入力される。このようにして入力された情報は、信号処理部(6)において送信信号に変換され、さらにRF回路(5)にてアップコンバートされ、アンテナ部(3)より電波として送信される。 On the other hand, at the time of transmission, in the case of a normal call, voice is input from the microphone (12) and is converted into a digital signal by the voice circuit unit (8). In the case of data communication such as character information or image information, the information is input from the user interface unit (7). The information input in this manner is converted into a transmission signal in the signal processing section (6), further up-converted in the RF circuit (5), and transmitted as radio waves from the antenna section (3).

 このとき、この携帯電話(2)の操作は、電源ボタン、送受信ボタン及び番号キーボタンなどのハードスイッチ(4)により操作される。また、種々の機能やモードの切り替えなどは、ユーザインターフェース部(7)でソフト的に行われ、上記ハードスイッチ(4)もソフトファンクションボタンとして動作する。 At this time, the operation of the mobile phone (2) is operated by a hardware switch (4) such as a power button, a transmission / reception button, and a number key button. Further, switching of various functions and modes is performed by software in the user interface unit (7), and the hard switch (4) also operates as a soft function button.

 一方、このような携帯電話機(2)は、2次電池等のバッテリ(10)を使用し携帯性に優れ、基地局(1)からの電波受信範囲内にいれば、いつでもどこでも通信できる優れた点を持っている。しかし、バッテリを使用しているので、通話時間、待ち受け時間には限界があり、バッテリ残量検出部(9)においてバッテリの残量を監視している。このような構成を有することにより、バッテリ残量が少なくなるとバッテリを再充電することができる。しかし、万が一バッテリ切れで通話断や電源OFFになってしまったとしても、バッテリを再充電することで携帯電話機の信頼性を維持することができる。

On the other hand, such a mobile phone (2) uses a battery (10) such as a secondary battery and is excellent in portability, and can be communicated anytime and anywhere as long as it is within a radio wave reception range from the base station (1). Have a point. However, since the battery is used, the talk time and the standby time are limited, and the remaining battery level is monitored by the remaining battery level detector (9). With such a configuration, the battery can be recharged when the remaining battery power is low. However, even if the battery is exhausted and the call is disconnected or the power is turned off, the reliability of the mobile phone can be maintained by recharging the battery.

 しかし、BLUETOOTH(「登録商標、以下同じ」)等の導入により、従来の基地局と携帯電話機間の通信だけでなく、携帯電話間の通信も可能になる。この携帯電話機(マスター側)と携帯電話機(スレーブ側)の間の通信においては、従来の情報データだけでなく、プログラムデータ等の重要な各種データも通信できるようになり、さらには、これらのデータで、例えば携帯電話機内に埋め込みのソフトウェアのような携帯電話機のシステムに影響を及ぼすデータを書き換えることも可能になる。従来の通信では、このような携帯電話機に埋め込みのデータを書き換えることはできなかった。 However, with the introduction of BLUETOOTH ("registered trademark", the same applies hereinafter) and the like, not only communication between a conventional base station and a mobile phone but also communication between a mobile phone becomes possible. In the communication between the mobile phone (master side) and the mobile phone (slave side), not only conventional information data but also various important data such as program data can be communicated. Thus, it is possible to rewrite data that affects the system of the mobile phone, such as software embedded in the mobile phone. In conventional communication, data embedded in such a mobile phone could not be rewritten.

 従って、従来の通信であれば、通信中にバッテリが消耗して通信断や電源OFFになったとしても、携帯電話機のシステムに影響を与えることはなく、バッテリを再充電することにより、正常に使用できることが保証されていた。しかし、BLUETOOTH等による通信によって、例えばソフトウェアのアップデートのためなどで、プログラムデータ等の通信・書き換えを行っている時に、マスター側、スレーブ側どちらか一方の携帯電話機でも、バッテリの消耗に伴ない通信断や電源OFFとなった場合、携帯電話機内の書き換え中のプログラムが不完全な状態のままになってしまう。即ち、この場合、プログラムデータが書き換えられていた携帯電話機のシステムは破壊されてしまい、その動作を保証することができなくなるという問題が発生する。 Therefore, in the case of conventional communication, even if the battery is consumed during communication and communication is interrupted or the power is turned off, the system of the mobile phone is not affected and the battery can be normally recharged by recharging the battery. It was guaranteed to be usable. However, when communication or rewriting of program data or the like is performed by communication using BLUETOOTH or the like, for example, for updating software, even if either the master-side or the slave-side mobile phone is used, communication due to battery exhaustion occurs. If the power is turned off or the power is turned off, the program being rewritten in the mobile phone remains in an incomplete state. That is, in this case, the system of the mobile phone in which the program data has been rewritten is destroyed, and the operation cannot be guaranteed.

 そこで、本発明は、BLUETOOTH等ようなプログラムデータの書き換えを行うような通信中におけるバッテリの消耗に伴う突然の通信断や電源OFFを防ぎ、携帯電話機の信頼性を保持することを目的とする。 Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to prevent a sudden disconnection or power-off due to battery consumption during communication such as rewriting of program data such as BLUETOOTH, and to maintain the reliability of a mobile phone.

 以上、説明したように、本発明の携帯通信機器は、BLUETOOTH等による通信中のバッテリ消費に伴う突発的な電源OFFに伴い、プログラムデータ等の重要なデータの不完全な書き込み等によりシステムが破壊されることを防ぐことが可能である。 As described above, in the portable communication device of the present invention, the system is destroyed due to incomplete writing of important data such as program data due to sudden power-off due to battery consumption during communication by BLUETOOTH or the like. It is possible to prevent that.

 以下、発明の実施例を添付図面を参照しつ、説明する。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

 本発明の実施例である携帯電話のハードウェア構成は、図3に示す構造を有していて、アンテナ部(3)、ハードスイッチ部(4)、RF部(5)、信号処理部(6)、ユーザインターフェース部(7)、音声回路部(8)、バッテリ残量検出部(9)、バッテリ(10)、スピーカ(11)、マイク(12)、表示部(13)及びBLUETOOTH送受信部(14)で構成されている。通信は基地局(1)を介して双方向通信がなされ、携帯電話機(2)はアンテナ部(3)により電波を送受信する。また、BLUETOOTH送受信部(14)より得られた情報により、信号処理部(6)内のデータやプログラムが、データ送信側の機器により書き変えられることが可能である。その他の構成は、従来と同様でであるため、ここでは、その説明を省略する。 The hardware configuration of the mobile phone according to the embodiment of the present invention has the structure shown in FIG. 3, and includes an antenna unit (3), a hard switch unit (4), an RF unit (5), and a signal processing unit (6). ), User interface unit (7), audio circuit unit (8), remaining battery level detection unit (9), battery (10), speaker (11), microphone (12), display unit (13), and BLUETOOTH transmission / reception unit ( 14). Communication is bidirectional communication via the base station (1), and the mobile phone (2) transmits and receives radio waves through the antenna section (3). The data and program in the signal processing unit (6) can be rewritten by the device on the data transmission side by the information obtained from the BLUETOOTH transmission / reception unit (14). The other configuration is the same as the conventional configuration, and the description thereof is omitted here.

 次に、本発明の実施例の特徴であるデータ送信時(マスター動作時)のソフトウェア処理を図1のフローチャートに沿って説明をする。BLUETOOTH通信開始時(ステップ1)に、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)と受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)がハンドシェークを行う。次に、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)で、信号処理部(6)において、自機のバッテリ残量とあらかじめ設定された閾値と比較する(ステップ2)。バッテリ残量は、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)における図3で示したバッテリ残量検出部(9)にて検出することができる。 Next, software processing at the time of data transmission (at the time of master operation), which is a feature of the embodiment of the present invention, will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. At the start of BLUETOOTH communication (step 1), the transmitting mobile phone (master side) and the receiving mobile phone (slave side) perform handshake. Next, in the transmitting side mobile phone (master side), the signal processing unit (6) compares the remaining battery level of the mobile phone with a preset threshold value (step 2). The remaining battery level can be detected by the remaining battery level detector (9) shown in FIG. 3 in the transmitting mobile phone (master side).

 ここで、バッテリ残量が閾値を下回っている場合、通信は終了される(ステップ12)。送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)のバッテリ残量が上記閾値以上であれば、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)との通信を行い、バッテリ残量情報を要求する(ステップ3)。 通信 Here, if the remaining battery charge is lower than the threshold, the communication is terminated (step 12). If the remaining battery level of the transmitting-side mobile phone (master side) is equal to or greater than the threshold value, communication is performed with the receiving-side mobile phone (slave side) to request battery remaining amount information (step 3).

 送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)の指示により、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量情報を受け取る。受け取るバッテリ残量情報は、バッテリ残量であっても、受信側携帯電話機内(スレーブ側)で判定されたデータ受信可否を表す信号であってもよい。ここで、スレーブ側での動作については後述する。送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)にて、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量を受け取った場合、この受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量をあらかじめ設定された上記閾値と比較する(ステップ4)。 受 け 取 る Receive battery level information of the receiving mobile phone (slave side) according to the instruction of the transmitting mobile phone (master side). The received battery remaining amount information may be a battery remaining amount or a signal indicating whether or not data reception determined in the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is possible. Here, the operation on the slave side will be described later. When the battery level of the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is received by the transmitting side mobile phone (master side), the remaining battery level of the receiving side mobile phone (slave side) is compared with the preset threshold value. (Step 4).

 ここで、受信側携帯電話(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量が閾値を下回っている場合、通信は終了される(ステップ12)。受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量が上記閾値以上であれば、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)との通信を開始し、プログラムデータ等の必要なデータの送信を開始する(ステップ5)。 If the remaining battery level of the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is below the threshold, the communication is terminated (step 12). If the remaining battery level of the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is equal to or greater than the threshold value, communication with the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is started, and transmission of necessary data such as program data is started (step 5). ).

 また、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)で、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のデータ受信可否の情報を受け取った場合、データ受信が否の時、通信は終了される(ステップ12)。データ受信が可の時、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)との通信を開始し、プログラムデータ等の必要なデータの送信を開始する(ステップ5)。 {Circle around (2)} When the transmitting mobile phone (master side) receives the information on whether the receiving mobile phone (slave side) can receive data, if the data is not received, the communication is terminated (step 12). When data reception is possible, communication with the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is started, and transmission of necessary data such as program data is started (step 5).

 データ通信中においても、あらかじめ設定された時間間隔にてバッテリ残量の確認を行う。即ち、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)において、自機のバッテリ残量とあらかじめ設定された閾値と比較する(ステップ7)。バッテリ残量は、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)における図3で示したバッテリ残量検出部(9)にて検出することができる。 に お い て Even during data communication, check the remaining battery power at preset time intervals. That is, the transmitting side mobile phone (master side) compares the remaining battery level of its own device with a preset threshold value (step 7). The remaining battery level can be detected by the remaining battery level detector (9) shown in FIG. 3 in the transmitting mobile phone (master side).

 ここで、バッテリ残量が閾値を下回っている場合、通信は終了判定がなされる(ステップ9)。送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)のバッテリ残量が上記閾値以上であれば、次に、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量情報を受け取る。このバッテリ残量情報は、バッテリ残量であっても、受信側携帯電話機内(スレーブ側)で判定されたデータ受信可否を表す信号であってもよい。ここで、スレーブ側での動作については後述する。送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)にて、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量を受け取った場合、この受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量をあらかじめ設定された上記閾値と比較する(ステップ8)。 If the remaining battery charge is below the threshold value, the communication is determined to be terminated (step 9). If the remaining battery level of the transmitting mobile phone (master side) is equal to or greater than the above threshold value, next, the remaining battery level information of the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is received. The remaining battery information may be the remaining battery power or a signal indicating whether data reception is possible or not determined in the receiving mobile phone (slave side). Here, the operation on the slave side will be described later. When the battery level of the receiving mobile phone (slave side) is received by the transmitting side mobile phone (master side), the remaining battery level of the receiving side mobile phone (slave side) is compared with the preset threshold value. (Step 8).

 ここで、受信側携帯電話(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量が閾値を下回っている場合、通信は終了判定がなされる(ステップ9)。受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量が上記閾値以上であれば、通信が継続される(ステップ6)。
また、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)で、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のデータ受信可否の情報を受け取った場合、データ受信が否の時、通信は終了判定がなされる(ステップ9)。データ受信が可の時、通信が継続される(ステップ6)。
Here, when the remaining battery level of the receiving-side mobile phone (slave side) is lower than the threshold value, the communication is determined to be terminated (step 9). If the remaining battery level of the receiving-side mobile phone (slave side) is equal to or larger than the threshold value, the communication is continued (step 6).
When the transmitting mobile phone (master side) receives the information on the data reception availability of the receiving mobile phone (slave side), when the data reception is not performed, the communication is determined to be finished (step 9). When data reception is possible, communication is continued (step 6).

 通信状態が長時間にわたると、上記のバッテリ残量のいずれかが、いつか上記閾値を下回り、通信の終了判定がなされる。通信の終了判定がなされた場合に、急に電源をOFFにすると、携帯電話機内の書き換え中のプログラムが不完全な状態のままになってしまう。即ち、この場合、プログラムデータが書き換えられていた携帯電話機のシステムは破壊されてしまい、その動作を保証することができなくなるという問題が発生する。 (4) If the communication state lasts for a long time, one of the above-mentioned remaining battery levels sometime falls below the above-mentioned threshold value, and the communication termination is determined. If the power is suddenly turned off when the end of communication is determined, the program being rewritten in the mobile phone remains in an incomplete state. That is, in this case, the system of the mobile phone in which the program data has been rewritten is destroyed, and the operation cannot be guaranteed.

 そこで、送信側電話機(マスター側)では、通信の終了判定がなされた後すぐに通信を遮断するのではなく、通信されているデータのデータブロックが1ブロック完了するところまで通信を続ける。従って、ステップ10において、通信中のデータのデータブロックが終了していない場合は、通信を継続し(ステップ11)、該データブロックの通信が終了した場合は、通信を終了する(ステップ12)。 この場合、通信の終了は、送信側携帯電話(マスター側)が、受信側携帯電話(スレーブ側)との通信を遮断する。 Therefore, the transmitting telephone (master side) does not interrupt the communication immediately after the determination of the end of the communication, but continues the communication until one data block of the data being transmitted is completed. Therefore, in step 10, if the data block of the data being communicated is not completed, the communication is continued (step 11), and if the communication of the data block is completed, the communication is terminated (step 12). In this case, when the communication ends, the transmitting mobile phone (master side) cuts off the communication with the receiving mobile phone (slave side).

 従って、バッテリ残量の閾値は、上記のように1データブロック分のデータが通信可能な値に設定する必要がある。該閾値は、携帯電話機の通常の使用における閾値と異なる値に設定してもかまわない。即ち、上記閾値を、携帯電話機の通常の使用における閾値より高めに設定しても構わない。 Therefore, it is necessary to set the threshold value of the remaining battery level to a value at which data of one data block can be communicated as described above. The threshold value may be set to a value different from the threshold value in normal use of the mobile phone. That is, the threshold value may be set higher than the threshold value in normal use of the mobile phone.

 次に、本発明の実施例において、そのデータ受信時(スレーブ動作時)のソフトウェア処理を図2に沿って説明する。BLUETOOTHでの通信開始時に、まず送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)と受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)がハンドシェークする(ステップ21)。ここで、送信側通信機器(マスター側)より受信する指示待ち状態になる。この間、送信側通信機器(マスター側)では、上述のように送信側通信機器(マスター側)のバッテリ残量確認し(ステップ2)、通信を確立するかどうかを決定する(ステップ2)。その決定結果が、受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)で受信される(ステップ22)。即ち、送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)のバッテリ残量が上記閾値以下の場合は、通信終了指示が出され、通信は終了する(ステップ32)。送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)のバッテリ残量が上記閾値より大きい場合は、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量情報を要求してくる。 Next, in the embodiment of the present invention, software processing at the time of data reception (during slave operation) will be described with reference to FIG. At the start of communication in BLUETOOTH, first, the transmitting mobile phone (master side) and the receiving mobile phone (slave side) perform handshaking (step 21). Here, it is in a state of waiting for an instruction to be received from the communication device on the transmission side (master side). During this time, the transmission-side communication device (master side) checks the remaining battery level of the transmission-side communication device (master side) as described above (step 2), and determines whether to establish communication (step 2). The result of the determination is received by the receiving communication device (slave) (step 22). That is, if the remaining battery level of the transmitting-side mobile phone (master side) is equal to or less than the threshold, a communication end instruction is issued, and the communication ends (step 32). If the remaining battery level of the transmitting-side mobile phone (master side) is larger than the above threshold value, a request is made for the remaining battery level information of the receiving-side mobile phone (slave side).

 バッテリ残量情報が要求された場合は、バッテリ残量の検出を行い(ステップ23)、その検出結果を送信側通信機器(マスター側)に送信する(ステップ24)。あるいは、受信側携帯電話機(スレーブ側)において、あらかじめ設定された閾値を有し、上記の検出されたバッテリ残量とこの閾値を比較する。その結果、バッテリ残量がこの閾値以下である場合はデータ受信否、バッテリ残量がこの閾値より大きい場合はデータ受信可の判定をする。この判定結果を送信側携帯電話機(マスター側)に送信する(ステップ24)
この時、送信側通信機器(マスター側)では、上記のように、受け取った受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)のバッテリ残量を確認し(ステップ4)、通信を終了するか、データ転送を開始するかを決定する。ここで、通信を終了する場合は、受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)では、通信終了命令を受信し(ステップ25)、通信を終了する(ステップ32)。
When the battery remaining amount information is requested, the battery remaining amount is detected (step 23), and the detection result is transmitted to the transmitting communication device (master side) (step 24). Alternatively, the receiving-side mobile phone (slave side) has a preset threshold value, and compares the threshold value with the detected remaining battery level. As a result, if the remaining battery level is equal to or less than the threshold value, it is determined whether or not data reception is possible. The result of this determination is transmitted to the transmitting mobile phone (master side) (step 24).
At this time, the transmission-side communication device (master side) confirms the remaining battery level of the received reception-side communication device (slave side) as described above (step 4), and terminates communication or starts data transfer. Decide what to do. Here, to end the communication, the receiving communication device (slave side) receives the communication end command (step 25) and ends the communication (step 32).

 一方、データ転送を開始する場合は、受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)において通信終了命令は受信されず(ステップ25)、送信側通信機器(マスター側)からのデータ受信が開始される(ステップ26)。 On the other hand, when data transfer is started, the receiving end communication device (slave side) does not receive the communication end command (step 25), and starts data reception from the transmission side communication device (master side) (step 26). ).

 データ受信中においても、受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)では、あらかじめ設定された時間間隔で、バッテリ残量の検出を行い(ステップ29)、その検出結果、または検出結果に基づく上記の判定結果(データ受信の可否)を送信側通信機器(マスター側)に送信し(ステップ30)、通信を継続する(ステップ27)。この間、上述のように、送信側通信機器(マスター側)では、両通信機器(マスター側とスレーブ側)のバッテリ残量を確認し、どちらか一方のバッテリ残量があらかじめ定められた閾値を下回った時、或いはデータ受信否の情報を受け取った時に通信終了判定がなされる。この通信終了判定は、受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)に伝えられる。 Even during data reception, the receiving communication device (slave side) detects the remaining battery level at preset time intervals (step 29), and the detection result or the above-described determination result based on the detection result (step 29). (Reception of data reception) is transmitted to the transmission-side communication device (master side) (step 30), and communication is continued (step 27). During this time, as described above, the transmission-side communication device (master side) checks the remaining battery levels of both communication devices (master side and slave side), and one of the remaining battery levels falls below a predetermined threshold. Communication termination is determined when the information has been received or when information on data reception non-reception has been received. This communication end determination is transmitted to the receiving communication device (slave side).

 受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)で、この通信終了判定を受信すると(ステップ28)、通信終了命令が受信されたかどうかを確認する(ステップ31)。ここで、通信終了命令が受信されなかった場合は、その時受信されているデータブロックの受信が全て終了していないと判断し、そのデータブロックのデータを全て受信するまで通信を継続するために、通信を継続する(ステップ27)。 (4) When the receiving communication device (slave) receives the communication end determination (step 28), it checks whether a communication end command has been received (step 31). Here, if the communication end command is not received, it is determined that reception of all data blocks received at that time is not completed, and communication is continued until all data of the data block is received. Communication is continued (step 27).

 一方、通信終了命令を受信した場合は(ステップ31)は、上記のデータブロックのデータ全ての受信が終了し、送信機側通信機器(マスター側)からデータが転送されていない状態であるため、受信側通信機器(スレーブ側)は通信を終了する(ステップ32)。 On the other hand, when the communication end command is received (step 31), the reception of all the data of the above data block is completed and the data is not transferred from the transmitter communication device (master side). The receiving communication device (slave side) ends the communication (step 32).
