A system supports communications of video and data to hand held devices located within a public venue (e.g., sports stadium). A pod includes at least one of a synchronized server and wireless communications electronics. The pod includes an antennae integrated therein. The pod can be deployed as a communications node within the public venue and provides data including video through a data network from at least one server to hand held wireless devices located in the public venue. The pod can include a rechargeable power source sustaining self-contained operation of the wireless communication electronics. An optional solar cell can provide electrical power to charge the rechargeable power source. A pod can be embedded in the wall or floor surface of said public venue and can be provided in the form of a core hole plug.

A terminal device includes a signal reception unit that receives signals transmitted from a plurality of transmission devices, and analyzes the contents of data contained in the signals; and a control unit that performs control to select one transmission device from the plurality of transmission devices that have transmitted signals containing identical data, and causes the signal reception unit to continuously receive a signal being transmitted from the selected transmission device when the number of received signals containing identical data is equal to or larger than a prescribed number.

A communication device comprises a first communication unit and a second communication unit of a same type as that of the first communication unit. The first communication unit or the second communication unit is configured to transmit, after wireless connection to an electronic apparatus is established, a waiting instruction signal for instructing the electronic apparatus to enter a state in which the electronic apparatus waits for a connection request.

A communication system includes a mobile device and an apparatus. The apparatus obtains unique data from the mobile device by using a common key while the common key is stored in the mobile device, generates a unique key by using the obtained unique data, stores the generated unique key as a service key in the apparatus, and transmits the generated unique key to the mobile device. When the mobile device receives the unique key from the apparatus while the common key is stored in the mobile device, the mobile device rewrites a service key stored in the mobile device from the common key to the unique key.

A radio access network (RAN) for a wireless communication network transmits, to user equipment (UE), information about NPN services provided by a non-public network (NPN) supported by the wireless network, where the UE is not subscribed to the NPN. In some embodiments, the NPN service information is periodically broadcasted to the UE; in other embodiments, the information is transmitted in response to receiving a request from the UE. In response to receiving the NPN service information, the UE transmits and the RAN receives an on-boarding request from the UE to on-board the UE to the NPN, which the RAN forwards to an on-boarding network (OBN) of the wireless network. In response, the RAN receives NPN credentials for the UE from the OBN, which the RAN forwards to the UE, which uses the NPN credentials to register to the NPN, thereby enabling the non-subscribing UE to subscribe to the NPN.

A communication apparatus performs short range wireless communication, performs a second communication different from the short range wireless communication, detects, by using the short range wireless communication, a partner apparatus with which sharing processing for sharing a communication parameter used for joining a network is to be performed, and obtains, from the partner apparatus detected, a public key by using the second communication. Authentication processing with the partner apparatus is executed by using the public key obtained, and in a case where the authentication processing succeeds, the sharing processing with the partner apparatus is executed.
