Hi,
Thanks for the quick answer.

Here is the result of the cmds.

didinux@zed:/sys/class/rfkill$  for i in */name ; do echo $i ; cat $i ; done
rfkill0/name
sony-wifi
rfkill1/name
sony-bluetooth
rfkill2/name
sony-wwan
rfkill3/name
hci0
rfkill4/name
hso-0
rfkill5/name
phy0

didinux@zed:/sys/class/rfkill$ cat rfkill0/state
1

didinux@zed:/sys/class/rfkill$ sudo echo 1 > rfkill0/state
bash: rfkill0/state: Permission denied

Is this helps ? or do i need to send you other cmd results.
