摘要： A location determination system (100) utilizes a low accuracy timing infrastructure (106) to synchronize a personal tracking device (120) having high accuracy timing location determination devices integrated therein. The PTD (120) includes a radio frequency (RF) location unit (102) and integrated sensors, such as altimeter (132), GPS receiver (134) and inertial navigation unit (IMU) (136). The RF location unit (102) receives a synchronization command from the low accuracy timing infrastructure (106) and provides timing data representing range information in response thereto. The range information is used by the high accuracy timing infrastructure (180) to compute updated X, Y, Z coordinates of the PTD (120).

摘要： A communication device provides for a hardware configurable module interface port by using a programmable logic device (108). The programmable logic device (108) is reconfigured using software stored in memory (106). The reconfiguration of programmable logic device (108) depends on the type of module (110) that is attached to the communication device. Since data translation is not required to be performed by each of the different types of modules that can be attached to the communication device, the time to develop a module is shortened and support circuitry requirements to perform data translation is reduced.

摘要： A variable inductor is made from two elements separated by an insulating layer. The first element is elastic and serves as a coil shaped support for the inductive element. This elastic element is made with a memory and can be made to change its size by the application of heat. The inductive element is formed over the coil shaped support by layering a thin layer of a highly conductive material such as gold over the insulator layered on the elastic element. As heat is applied to the coil or as an electric current is applied to the elastic element, the size of the coil shaped support is changed which changes the inductive value of the inductive element formed by the conductive layer.

摘要： A frequency generation unit (FGU) in a communication device includes a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), an adjustable filter having a capacitive element for wideband operation, a current source with variable gain, and chirp generation control circuitry (CGC) that is used to generate location signals. The FGU receives, from a reference device, at least one location signal control parameter that defines linear frequency slope characteristics for a location signal. The CGC configures, based on the at least one location signal control parameter, the gain and a polarity of the current source to generate a first current during a first time period for charging the capacitive element to generate a control signal that is coupled to the VCO to generate a first part of the location signal having the defined linear frequency slope characteristics, wherein the first part of the location signal is transmitted using a transceiver of the communication device.

摘要： A reference device determines its distance from a communication device by first using a training process to determine a calibrated time delay for the communication device when the communication device is at a known distance from the reference device. The calibrated time delay is a steady state internal processing delay for the communication device. Subsequently, when the reference device is at an unknown distance from the communication device, the reference device determines the unknown distance using the previously determined calibrated time delay along with a measured signal travel time at the unknown distance.

摘要： If the mobile station (101) locates a peer it will request network metadata and may obtain location related services or service lists. The mobile station (101) negotiates with one of more peers (103) to share the work load of background scanning for network services. After successful negotiation, any peers in the “discovery net” will report or advertise to each other of any newly discovered networks, or networks to which connectivity has been lost. Since the various mobile stations may, when powered on, scan periodically for network changes, the metadata stored on the mobile station (101) will be dynamic and will change periodically upon travels and/or encounters with additional peers. Because the peers (103) may also possess location information, the mobile station (101) may additionally adjust its scan to prioritize services advertised by those members of peers (103) that are located most proximate to the mobile station (101).

摘要： A system (100) and method (300) for utilizing peer networks to extend a battery life of a mobile device in a wide area network (WAN) using a Wireless_Local Area Network (WLAN) is provided. The method can include monitoring (302) a power-level of the mobile device, determining (304) if the power-level is below a pre-determined threshold, identifying (306) peers to serve as transmit proxies in view of the power-level, and switching from a high-power transceiver (206) to a low-power transceiver (208) to reduce power consumption. The mobile device can communicate with the peers using a low-power transceiver in the WLAN to transmit communication data within the WAN.
