Abstract:
Systems, methods and apparatus for remotely controlling the power management of a mobile device are provided. The system, method, and apparatus may include a mobile terminal wirelessly connected to a sensor platform. The sensor platform may send a constant awake message to the mobile terminal that prevents the mobile terminal from entering a sleep mode until the sensor platform sends a release signal to the mobile terminal.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a collaborative demand-based dual-mode Wi-Fi network control framework that may optimize wireless power and performance on wireless devices that may support multiple Wi-Fi networking technologies. In particular, a high performance Wi-Fi link may be reserved to services or applications that have substantial quality of service (QoS) requirements and conventional Wi-Fi links may be utilized to transfer data for services or applications that have typical performance requirements. For example, bandwidth requirements associated with forward traffic may be measured according to sizes and latency requirements associated with the forward traffic and the appropriate Wi-Fi networking mode may be controlled according to the forward traffic bandwidth requirements in combination with the average bandwidth and average retransmission rate associated with the conventional Wi-Fi links, among other factors. Furthermore, when no forward traffic needs to be transmitted, all Wi-Fi subsystems may enter a low power state.
Abstract:
In an embodiment, a media source transmits, to media presentation device(s) over a local wireless connection, media, a first key for decrypting the media and a second key for decrypting the first key. The second key is transmitted via a unicast protocol and is encrypted is based upon a point-to-point security framework (e.g., IPSec). The media presentation device(s) each decrypt the first key using the second key, and then decrypt the media using the decrypted first key. The media presentation device(s) then present at least a portion of the decrypted media.
Abstract:
A device for transmitting data to a network includes a source subsystem and a communication subsystem. The source subsystem generates a first data packet that includes first timing information that is based on a time that the first data packet is generated. The first timing information is generated responsive to a first timing generator included in the source subsystem. The communication subsystem is coupled to the source subsystem via one or more abstraction layers and is configured to modify the first data packet to generate a modified data packet for transmission to the network. The modified data packet includes the first timing information and second timing information that is based on a time that the modified data packed is transmitted. The communications subsystem includes a second timing generator that is linked to the first timing generator through the one or more abstraction layers to generate the second timing information.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a low-power co-processor subsystem that can optimize power consumption in a wireless service platform having a main wireless application datapath, wherein the low-power co-processor subsystem may offload certain service discovery tasks from the main wireless application datapath (e.g., such that components residing therein can transition to a low-power state). For example, the service discovery tasks offloaded to the low-power co-processor subsystem may be determined according to protocol-specific service descriptions associated with one or more services to be provided and/or consumed at a wireless device. Furthermore, rules to wake the components in the main wireless application datapath may be dynamically defined and redefined or otherwise tuned to maximize the time that the components in the main wireless application datapath can spend in the low-power state and to determine conditions under which to selectively wake the components in the main wireless application datapath as needed.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communication are provided. An apparatus may be configured to generate canvas rendering instructions associated with at least one application on the apparatus. The apparatus may be configured to encode the canvas rendering instructions into a data stream based on a remote rendering protocol. The apparatus may be configured to transmit the data stream to a sink device to enable at least the partial rendering of a source canvas of the apparatus onto a sink canvas of the sink device. The data stream may include the encoded canvas rendering instructions.
Abstract:
Wireless communication devices are provided with direct video and audio streaming capability. The streaming capability may support overlays. Some implementations include incorporation of these features into devices with a mirroring display mode.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product provide feedback to a user of an augmented reality (AR) device having an optical see-through head mounted display (HMD). The apparatus obtains a location on the HMD corresponding to a user interaction with an object displayed on the HMD. The object may be an icon on the HMD and the user interaction may be an attempt by the user to select the icon through an eye gaze or gesture. The apparatus determines whether a spatial relationship between the location of user interaction and the object satisfies a criterion, and outputs a sensory indication, e.g., visual display, sound, vibration, when the criterion is satisfied. The apparatus may be configured to output a sensory indication when user interaction is successful, e.g., the icon was selected. Alternatively, the apparatus may be configured to output a sensory indication when the user interaction fails.
