摘要:
A communication device (100) having a receiver circuit (110), signal processor circuit (120), controller circuit (130), either embodied by integrated circuits or on a single integrated circuit. The transfer of signals between the circuits is timed so as to minimize the effects of noise introduced into any one of the circuits, particularly the receiver circuit (110). The center of a symbol of a received RF symbol is detected and, through hardware control or software control, the transfer of a data signal generated by the signal processor circuit (120), for example, is permitted to occur only during a period(s) of time determined to have minimal effects on the sampling of a symbol in a received signal by the receiver circuit (110).

An online communication system (10) includes a plurality of remote session clients (12) and one or more online servers (14). The online communication system (10) provides continuity of an online session (80) between a server (14) and one of the remote session clients (12). A first session client (18) participates in the online session (80), including receiving and accumulating a plurality of session information (182) for the online session (80). The first session client (18) initiates a transfer of the session information (182) to a second session client (20) to enable the second session client (20) to seamlessly continue the online session (80) in place of the first session client (18) after the transfer of the session information (182).
摘要:
A method for organizing and displaying multiple calendars (200, 300, 400, and 500) from multiple devices (102, 104, 106, and 108) to give an appearance of a single user calendar (1100 and 1200) on a user's device is disclosed. Each calendar event having associated user category such as time (210), self (204), family (206), and work (208), is organized based on a display preference selected by a user. Desired calendar events organized based on the display preference are displayed (1100, 1200) on a selected device. Calendar events displayed have different visual attributes based on the corresponding associated users.
摘要:
A communication device (125) receives a signal in which messages are included. The communication device (125) includes a decoder (215) for recovering a received message from the signal and a message status element (250) for determining whether the received message is of a first type or a second type of message. Transmission of an acknowledgment by the communication device (125) indicative of a presentation of the received message to a user occurs in response to presentation of a message of the first type, and transmission of an acknowledgment by the communication device indicative of a presentation of the received message to a user does not occur in response to presentation of a message of the second type. The communication device (125) further includes a display (230) for visually presenting information to the user by which the user is alerted to whether the received message is of the first or the second type.
摘要:
A method for managing a task list utilizes location-based filtering to generate a reminder to a user of a communication device to perform an outstanding task. The communication device is provided with information on an outstanding task associated with a particular site and at least one proximity parameter for triggering a reminder for performing the outstanding task at a particular site (420). The communication device obtains geographic location information for the particular site and obtains information on its current location (430, 440). The device determines whether it is located within an area in which the outstanding task can be completed, which area is defined by a boundary established based at least in part on the geographic location of the particular site, and on the proximity parameter specified (450). A reminder is generated for the outstanding task when the communication device enters within this area, and also preferably generated if the communication device leaves the site or area without receiving a notification of task completion (470, 480, 490, 495).
摘要:
A transceiver (10) used in an RF messaging system transmits unscheduled messages on a channel selected by the transceiver (10). The transceiver(10) examines a number of factors prior to selecting a channel, including the power available from its battery (39), the power required to send the message, and which channel it had previously used to successfully transmit a message. Depending on the results of this examination, the transceiver (10) can reject the channel it has used successfully on previous occasions and select a different channel having a different data rate.
摘要:
A communication system (100) includes a terminal (105) that receives messages for transmission to a transceiver (110). A method for transmitting reminders within the communication system (100) comprises the steps of transmitting a message to the transceiver (110), determining that information relating to the message has not been received from the transceiver (110) after a predetermined time, and sending a reminder associated with the message to the transceiver (110) after the predetermined time.
摘要:
A communication system (10) comprises a plurality of clients (12) including a first client (18) and a second client (20). Within the communication system (10), continuity of one or more of a plurality of broadcast events (14) is provided between the plurality of clients (12). The first client (18) monitors a broadcast event (34). Thereafter, the second client (20) launches monitoring of the broadcast event (34) in response to an occurrence associated with the broadcast event (34).
摘要:
A portable device (100) communicates with a short range wireless local area network (114) and a wide area communication system (116). The portable device (100) receives a location data from the short range wireless local area network (114). The portable device (100) generates a location sensitive information request to the wide area communication system (116) including the location data received from the short range wireless local area network (114).
摘要:
A communication device (100) and method therefore for compensating an oscillator (146). The communication device (100) includes a receiver (110) for receiving message information transmitted on a predetermined channel (105), an oscillator (146) having a frequency of operation set by a controller (116) for enabling reception of the message information on the predetermined channel (105), and a decoder (114) for decoding the message information received, and for deriving there from messages and channel quality information. The controller (116) is responsive to the messages derived, for storing the same, and further responsive to the channel quality information derived for generating a compensation signal when the value of the channel quality information exceeds a predetermined value. The compensation signal that is generated by the controller (116) effects shifting of the frequency of operation of the oscillator (146) to center reception of the communication device (100) on the predetermined channel (105).
