摘要:
An electronic device includes an electrical circuitry interface (112) adapted for coupling with an energy source (106), a comparator (138), and a DC-DC converter circuitry (134) having a switch circuit (161) and an energy storage circuit (132). The switch circuit (161) is coupled to the electrical circuitry interface (112) and to the energy storage circuit (132), and is controlled to charge the energy storage circuit (132). A first input (166) of the comparator (138) is coupled to a voltage that varies with a nominal supply voltage of the energy source (106). A second input (168) of the comparator (138) is coupled to a threshold voltage. A comparator output (160) of the comparator (138) is coupled to the switch circuit (161). In operation, the DC-DC converter circuitry (134) charges the energy storage circuit (132) for a certain time period or until the stored voltage is greater then a desired voltage. The DC-DC converter circuitry (134) is controlled to stop charging the energy storage circuit (132) when current demands cause the energy source voltage to exceed a threshold voltage.

A modular communication device (102), which provides for radio frequency (RF) communication in a communication system (100), comprises a first modular unit (106) and a second modular unit (108). The first modular unit (106) includes a housing (110); a user interface (113) including a display (114) and keys (116); electrical circuitry (605), including a transceiver (606) coupled to an antenna (610); a battery connection interface (308) for receiving a battery (302); and a connection interface (120). The second modular unit (108) includes a housing (128); a user interface (135) including a speaker (650), a microphone (648), and a keypad (140); a retractable antenna (134); a battery connection interface (402) for receiving a battery (142); and a connection interface (143). When the connection interfaces (143, 120) are connected, the user interface (135), the antenna (134), and the battery connection interface (402) are coupled to the electrical circuitry (602).
摘要:
When an input digital signal, having a portion with an associated control value, is connected to a digital filter with adaptive compensation, the digital filter with adaptive compensation selects one of a plurality of coefficient scalers (9501, 9601) as directed by a control bus (990). As the input digital signal propagates through the filter, one of a plurality of next coefficient scalers (9502,9602) are selected by the control bus (990). The digital filter with adaptive compensation interleaves in time the coefficients of multiple conventional filters in order to filter each portion of the digital signal according to its associated control value.
摘要:
In a digital modulator with compensation, a digital bit stream from a microphone (705), a speech coder (706), and a channel encoder (707) is sent to an encoder (720) which translates the bits into I/Q digital pulses with phase shift keying. A symbol correlater (730) notes when predetermined target phase symbol sequences, which contribute to a high peak-to-average power ratio, enter the encoder. If a target symbol sequence is encountered, the correlater directs compensation amplifiers or compensation filters (734, 737) of the I/Q signals. Next, I/Q pulse shaping filters (764, 765) filter the I/Q pulses according to communication system specifications. The filtered I/Q signals are then sent to a quadrature modulator (790) for RF modulation. Compensation of target symbol sequences reduces the negative impact they have on peak-to-average power ratio and increases the efficiency of the power amplifier (795) which extends the battery life of a communication device (700).

摘要:
A communication device performs a method for coordinating communications between a plurality of communication devices of a user. The method includes detecting an active communication session on a primary communication device having user engagement, and determining a set of secondary communication devices in proximity to the user. The method further includes detecting an interruption event, at the primary communication device, during the active communication session. Additionally, the method includes determining that a first secondary communication device, in the set of secondary communication devices, has capability to process the interruption event, and transferring the interruption event to the first secondary communication device.

An electronic device is operable to display images on a display screen of the device's display. The images include at least one icon and at least one image to be used as a background setting for the display screen. The electronic device includes the display, at least one storage device, and a processing unit. The storage device(s) digitally stores the images and operating instructions for displaying the images. The processing device is operable in accordance with the operating instructions to: retrieve the images from the storage device, determine at least one portion of the background setting that is of higher importance than a remainder of the background setting to produce at least one high importance portion of the background setting, and instruct the display to display the background setting and the icons on the display screen such that the high importance portion(s) of the background setting is viewable.

A method for receiving a broadcast message in a wireless communication device is disclosed. The device receives a broadcast message that has associated therewith a unique message grouping identifier and determines whether the unique message grouping identifier of the received message is equal to a unique message grouping identifier of a previously received message. The device ignores the received broadcast message when the unique message grouping identifier of the received message is equal to the unique message grouping identifier of the previously received message and in some implementations enters sleep mode.
摘要:
A method for controlling diversity receivers in a wireless communication device includes the steps of: determining if the wireless communication device is experiencing poor coverage (220), using a first receiver and a second receiver for diversity (230) if the wireless communication device is experiencing poor coverage, and using the second receiver for scanning (240) if the wireless communication device is not experiencing poor coverage. Thus, diversity can be used when needed to improve reception. Both receivers, however, can be used in a non-diversity mode to reduce current drain or to speed up channel acquisition when coverage is not poor.

A circuit (2) and method employing logic circuitry (30) and memory (40) identifies a reverse link limited channel (80). The logic circuitry (30) identifies a reverse link limited channel based on determining that an access probe failure occurred on a channel (64). The logic circuitry (30) causes the memory to store reverse link limited channel data (80) in response to the logic circuitry (30) determining that the access probe failure occurred. The reverse link limited channel data (80), for example, may be a channel identification associated with the channel (64), a base station identification associated with the channel (64), a location identification of the circuit (2) or any data suitable for identifying and adapting dynamically to the reverse link limited channel.
