Abstract
A system of Wi-Fi terminals and a channel operation method for the same are provided. The method includes selecting a user function of a sending terminal including a Wi-Fi module, determining whether the selected user function is a Wi-Fi related function, performing, when the selected user function is the Wi-Fi related function, by the sending terminal, a search for a terminal capable of handling the user function, selecting, by the sending terminal, a found terminal as a receiving terminal, automatically establishing, by the sending terminal, a Wi-Fi channel to the receiving terminal by automatically sending a Probe Request message containing a Personal Identification Number (PIN) code, sending, by the sending terminal, data generated by the user function to the receiving terminal through the Wi-Fi channel, and outputting, by the receiving terminal, the received data.
