Abstract: A geo-fence capable device is disclosed that is capable of performing an accurate geo-fence operation while minimizing power consumption. The device includes sensors, Wi-Fi connectability and GNSS. Sensors intermittently detect whether the device is in motion. When determined to be in motion, Wi-Fi is used to acquire a wireless access point list and to compare the access point list to previously-stored access points in order to determine whether the device is still within a particular region. GNSS is used to confirm exit from a region and to intermittently monitor whether the device has entered a new region. GNSS and application processor use can be minimized by utilizing sensor and Wi-Fi functionality as preliminary region monitors.

Abstract: A communication platform that integrates communication and sensing capabilities into a single integrated communication platform. The communication platform can senses relativity information, such as environmental information, location information, platform user information, or the like. Further, the communication platform can perform cross-sensor functionality so as to utilize relativity information from multiple sensors. The cross-sensor functionality can be utilized in multiples sensors implemented within the communication platform, in one or more other communication platforms, or any combination thereof. The communication platform can also offload processing operations from a host processor to one or more sensor hubs and/or sensor processors within the communication platform and/or to a sensor processor of one or more other communication platforms. Similarly, the communication platform can also offload sensing operations by requesting relativity from one or more sensors of one or more other communication platforms.

Abstract: Aspects of a method and system for extending the usability period of long term orbit (LTO) are provided. A GPS enabled handset may receive LTO data from an AGPS server via a wireless communication network such as 3GPP or WiMAX. The GPS enabled handset may be enabled to receive broadcast GPS signals. The GPS enabled handset may extract navigation information from the received broadcast GPS signals to be used to adjust the received LTO data. The usability period of the received LTO data may be extended, accordingly. A clock model and a satellite health model associated with the extracted navigation information may be used to update or replace the clock model and/or the satellite health model of the received LTO data, respectively. A navigation solution for the GPS enabled handset may be determined more accurately based on the adjusted LTO data.
