Abstract

Specifically, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for searching for an access point is provided. The method for searching may comprises the steps of: a terminal measuring the position thereof; checking an access point located near the measured position of the terminal; determining whether or not the distance between the terminal and the access point is greater than the radius range searchable by the terminal; and searching for the access point when the distance between the terminal and the access point is less than the radius range.
