摘要:
An accessory for an electronic device includes a cable, such as an audio cable having first and second ends, and a plurality of light guides attached to the cable. The light guides have first ends proximate the first end of the cable and extend along a length of the cable. Respective ones of the plurality of light guides terminate at different points along the length of the cable. The accessory may further include an interface adapter coupled to the cable and the plurality of light guides and at least one light emitting device, and the light guides may be configured to receive light emitted by the at least one light emitting device.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method of keeping track of and staying tuned to a transmitter even when a receiver is moving at a relatively high speed. Electronic equipment carried on fast moving vehicles and comprising receiving means can experience a shift in the frequencies received due to Doppler shift. Embodiments provide a way of taking such a Doppler shift into account by means of acceleration measurements of the electronic equipment. Some embodiments may be used in electronic equipment containing a GPS receiver or the like, where re-tracking of satellites can be power and time consuming.
摘要:
The position of a given mobile terminal is determined by communicating satellite positioning system information between the given mobile terminal and at least one other mobile terminal over a short-range, ad hoc wireless network, such as a Bluetooth network, to cooperatively determine the position of the given mobile terminal by the given mobile terminal and the at least one other mobile terminal that communicate over the short-range, ad hoc wireless network. Satellite positioning system information may communicated by distributing processing of the satellite positioning information, by distributing receiving of satellite positioning system information from a satellite, by communicating assistance data and/or by synchronizing timing of satellite positioning information, between the given mobile terminal and the at least one other mobile terminal over the short-range, ad hoc wireless network.
摘要:
Methods of establishing a point-to-point communication connection using an uplink radio resource of a communication system include allocating an unused portion of the uplink radio resource of the communication system as a communication channel. The communication channel is assigned to establish the point-to-point communication connection.
摘要:
A target modulation is detected in a signal, e.g., a radio signal received by a device such as a mobile communications terminal. Respective target modulation correlations for respective carrier timing hypotheses are determined by demodulating signal values corresponding to the signal for the respective carrier timing hypotheses using a common carrier demodulation template and detecting the target modulation from the target modulation correlations. The target modulation may be, for example, a pseudonoise (PN) code, such as a GPS code or a CDMA communications system code, and the carrier timing hypotheses may correspond to various potential Doppler shifts.
摘要:
Portable electronic devices are provided including a housing and a display integrated with the housing. A thumb-operable input device is positioned on a side of the housing. An indicator is provided on the display and is operatively associated with the thumb-operable input device. The indicator is positioned on the display to highlight and/or select menu items on the display responsive to input received at the thumb-operable input device. Related man-machine interfaces (MMIs) are also provided.
摘要:
The invention includes a method for a wireless connection of a wireless portable device 10 to a selected wireless device 10a in a group of nearby wireless devices 10a-10c, which device 10 is provided with a short-range-unit 50 for a wireless communication with said group of nearby devices 10a-10c, a substantially omnidirectional antenna 52 connected to said short-range-unit 50 for a substantially omnidirectional communication, and at least one directional communication device 54, 24 for a directional communication, which method includes the steps of: activating the directional communication device 54, 24; directing the directional communication device 54, 24 towards a nearby device 10a; connecting the portable device 10 to the selected device 10a using the directional communication device 54, 24; communicating with the selected device 10a via said substantially omnidirectional antenna 52 after said connecting.
摘要:
A portable mobile communications device for diverting the destination of a mobile broadcast program broadcast by a mobile broadcast service provider includes a mobile broadcast device, a processor running a mobile broadcast diversion application communicable with the mobile broadcast service provider, and a user interface for controlling the mobile broadcast device and the mobile broadcast diversion application such that mobile broadcast programs can be diverted to an alternate device when the received signal quality of the mobile broadcast falls to unsatisfactory levels. The alternate device can include a home media server, a computer, or a mobile radio access network (M-RAN) coupled to and communicable with the mobile broadcast service provider via the Internet.
摘要:
Methods of delivering electronic content include exchanging communications with a network access point from a control terminal to establish a communication link configured for two-way communications. Electronic content transmitted by the network access point is received at a remote terminal over the established communication link without providing responsive communications to the network access point from the remote terminal.
摘要:
A mobile terminal includes a processor that is programmed to provide a user of the mobile terminal with a hearing test and to determine a set of coefficients. A microphone is configured to receive audio signals therethrough. A digital filter is programmed with the determined set of coefficients and is configured to process the audio signals and transmit the processed audio signals to an earphone.
