摘要:
Example method, apparatus, and computer program product embodiments are disclosed to enable out-of-band short-range communication carrier transport switching for connection setup of in-band device-to-device communication. Example embodiments of the invention include a method comprising the steps of transmitting, by a first device via an out-of-band short-range communication carrier, an indication to a second device that a carrier switch from the out-of-band short-range communication carrier to an in-band short-range communication carrier is desired; receiving in response to the transmitted indication, a response from the second device via the out-of-band short-range communication carrier including an indication that the carrier switch from the out-of-band short-range communication carrier to the in-band short-range communication carrier is confirmed; and modifying, by the first device, device detection procedure associated with the in-band short-range communication carrier to improve detection of paging signals on the in-band short-range communication carrier.
摘要:
A method for use by a device communicating according to a short-range wireless connectivity protocol in attempting to establish a connection to another device using an enhanced inquiry and/or paging procedure as part of the connection procedure, the method including a step in which the device transmits a first packet for establishing a connection to the other device, and the other device responds with one or more response packets whose content depends on whether the other device is configured to perform the enhanced procedure. In some embodiments, the first packet is an identifier packet including extension data indicating via a predetermined bit pattern that the device is itself configured to perform the enhanced procedure.
摘要:
A method and system of controlling a multicast transmission. The method and system transmits a data packet to multiple slave devices across a UWB wireless network, and detects the reception of any acknowledgement transmissions. These acknowledgement transmissions indicate reception of the data packet by the slave devices. In addition, the method and system retransmit the data packet to at least one of the slave devices when an acknowledgment is not detected for each of the slave devices. The acknowledgments may be received from the UWB network.
摘要:
A system for managing the simultaneous operation of a plurality of radio modems in a single wireless communication device (WCD). The multiradio control may be integrated into the WCD as a subsystem responsible for scheduling wireless communications by temporarily enabling or disabling the plurality of radio modems within the device. The multiradio control system may comprise a multiradio controller (MRC) and a plurality dedicated radio interfaces. The radio interfaces are dedicated to quickly conveying delay sensitive information to and from the radio modems. The modems may further include control features that take information from the MRC as an input in determining the priority of messages to be sent out to a receiving device.
摘要:
A communication method includes establishing a wideband communication link between a first device and a second device, transmitting a first set of consecutive data bits from the first device to the second device by means of a first set of pulses, and transmitting a second set of bits from the second device to the first device at least partially simultaneously or at least partially interlaced with the first set of bits.
摘要:
A method, system and program code are provided to implement a wireless network having a plurality of devices in which one of the devices coordinates wireless communications between the devices. The method and system evaluates device parameters of one or more of the plurality of devices, the device parameters including at least available power source characteristics for a device; and determines a coordinator from the plurality of devices based on at least the available power source characteristics, such as an available power source capacity, for the one or more of the plurality of devices, the coordinator adapted to coordinate wireless communications between the devices in the wireless network.
摘要:
A system for selectively expediting connection establishment between apparatuses. In at least one example implementation, an apparatus may comprise at least a control entity and a communication entity. The control entity may transmit a command to the communication entity, the command instructing the communication entity to set certain operational parameters. The communication entity may then send a response to the command, and the control entity may determine if the certain operational parameters have been set in the communication entity based on the response. If the certain operational parameters have been set, the control entity may initiate a first device discovery mode in the apparatus. Alternatively, a second device discovery mode may be initiated by the control entity if it is determined that the certain operational parameters have not been set in the communication entity.

According to one embodiment, the invention relates to a method comprising: transmitting (410), by an apparatus, a message to detect one or more wireless communication devices; receiving (420), in response to the transmitted message, at least one response message comprising at least identification information regarding a wireless communication device; determining (430) that the apparatus has data suitable for transmitting to the wireless communication device without establishing a formal communication connection with the wireless communication device; and transmitting (440) one or more subsequent messages to the wireless communication device in response to the received response message, wherein the one or more subsequent messages comprise at least the data suitable for transmitting to the wireless communication device without establishing a formal communication connection.
摘要:
Apparatus for enabling the connection of an electronic device to a particular peripheral device, wherein the apparatus is configured to determine a first measure of the geographical location of the particular peripheral device using geographical location signalling; associate the determined first measure of the geographical location of the particular peripheral device with a communication channel signalling used by the particular peripheral device; discriminate the communication channel signalling for the particular peripheral device based on the association; and enable selection of the geographical location of the particular peripheral device to use the communication channel signalling to provide for connection of the electronic device to the particular peripheral device to allow the electronic device to use the functionality provided by the particular peripheral device.
