    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for using shared antennas for multi-protocol communication. Example devices may include a first antenna, a second antenna, memory and at least one processor configured to access the memory and execute computer-executable instructions to determine a first request for a first wireless radio to transmit first data for a first duration, determine a second request for a second wireless radio to receive second data during the first duration, and determine that a first signal strength associated with the first wireless radio is less than or equal to a first threshold. Certain embodiments may be configured to determine that communication associated with the first wireless radio has a higher priority than communication associated with the second wireless radio, cause the first wireless radio to transmit the first data using a first antenna for the first duration, and cause a second antenna to be idle.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for conserving power on an electronic device. For instance, at given time intervals, the electronic device may be sending input data to a network device and receiving audio data from the network device. The electronic device may then use one or more techniques to determine when to switch from operating in a first mode, where the electronic device sends and/or receives the data, to operating in a second mode, where the electronic device ceases sending and/or receiving the data. For example, the electronic device may make the determination based on an amount of data stored in a buffer, whether the electronic device receives data, using data received from the network device, and/or the like. Based on the determination, the electronic device may switch to the second mode in order to conserve power.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for mitigating thermal increases in electronic devices. Example devices may include memory and at least one processor configured to access the memory and execute computer-executable instructions to determine that a temperature of the device satisfies a first threshold, send a notification to an access point communicatively coupled to the device indicating that the device will enter a sleep state for a length of time, and cause the device to enter the sleep state. Certain embodiments may be configured to cause the device to enter an awake state after the length of time, determine that the temperature satisfies a second threshold, and determine that a period of time has elapsed. Some embodiments may be configured to determine that a first bandwidth mode is active at the device, and cause a second bandwidth mode to be activated at the device.
