Abstract:
A method of operating a user equipment includes setting a user equipment to enter a public safety mode, converting the user equipment to an idle state when the user equipment enters the public safety mode, and temporarily converting the user equipment from the idle state to a partial wakeup state during the public safety mode. A public safety carrier searching is performed for device-to-device (D2D) communication between the user equipment and a neighboring equipment during the partial wakeup state. The method may efficiently support the D2D communication and reduce power consumption by changing the state of the user equipment into the idle state when entering the public safety mode and temporarily changing the user equipment into the partial wakeup state for public safety carrier searching.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for controlling an operation of an electronic device are provided. The method includes detecting a first input or a second input corresponding to a proximity distance of an input instrument in proximity to a display screen; identifying an input combination which includes at least one of the first input, the second input, or a combination of the first and second inputs which are inputted at a predetermined time interval; and performing a predetermined function corresponding to the identified input combination.
