    Abstract: A monitoring device may monitor its proximity to a monitored station. The monitored station may transmit a proximity indicator to the monitoring device. For example, the proximity indicator may include the received signal strength of a signal sent by the monitored station. Wireless interface control circuitry at the monitoring device may monitor the status of the proximity indicator for changes. If one or more criteria set by an application processor are met by a detected change, the wireless interface control circuitry may send a status update to the application processor. In the criteria are not met, generation of the status update may be forgone. The application processor need not monitor the proximity indicator status and may remain in a reduced power consumption mode for longer periods.

    Abstract translation: 监控设备可以监视其与受监视站的距离。 受监控站可以向监控设备发送接近指示符。 例如,接近指示符可以包括受监视站发送的信号的接收信号强度。 监控设备上的无线接口控制电路可以监视接近指示器的状态以进行更改。 如果通过检测到的改变满足应用处理器设置的一个或多个标准,则无线接口控制电路可以向应用处理器发送状态更新。 在不符合条件的情况下,状态更新的生成可能会被放弃。 应用处理器不需要监视接近指示器状态,并且可以在较长时间内保持在降低的功耗模式。
