20150045023 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVED MEASUREMENTS IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS - Methods and apparatus for communication comprise storing a first portion of a set of frequencies in a frequency measurement list, wherein the first portion of the set of frequencies includes a first sequence of one or more frequencies. The methods and apparatus further comprise storing a second portion of the set of frequencies in a frequency waitlist when a maximum frequency measurement list size meets or exceeds a maximum frequency measurement list size threshold value, wherein the second portion of the set of frequencies includes a second sequence of one or more frequencies. Moreover, the methods and apparatus comprise performing a communication procedure based on one or more frequencies stored in one or both of the frequency measurement list and the frequency waitlist. | 02-12-2015 |
20150230157 | PRUNING A CELL IN CELLULAR WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS - Aspects for pruning a spurious cell are provided for a user equipment (UE). At the UE, based in part on transmission gap pattern sequence (TGPS) information received from a serving cell of the UE, a search period for measurement events for cells in a database different from the serving cell is determined. Among the cells in the database in the UE, a candidate cell is selected. Among a plurality of measurement reporting event time-to-triggers (TTTs) associated with the candidate cell, a smallest measurement reporting event TTT is determined. Further, based at least in part on the search period and the smallest measurement reporting event TTT value associated with the candidate cell, a cell age pruning threshold for the candidate cell may be determined. The cell age pruning threshold may be used to determine whether to prune the candidate cell from the database. | 08-13-2015 |
20150237055 | Network Access and Control for Mobile Devices - Systems, methods, and devices of the various embodiments enable content controls to be implemented by a modem of a mobile device to ensure the controls are implemented regardless of whether an application processor of the mobile device has been rooted. In an embodiment, content controls may be implemented by a modem or list component separate from the application processor when in a subsidized content delivery mode. In an embodiment, content controls may include a whitelist and/or a blacklist of IP addresses that addresses of content requests may be compared against to filter authorized content from unauthorized content. Content requests for authorized content may be sent to the content location, while content requests for unauthorized content may be dropped. In the various embodiments, a whitelist and/or blacklist may be updated on demand and/or automatically by a whitelist/blacklist management portal. | 08-20-2015 |
20150278031 | ADAPTIVE FILE BACKUP SYSTEM - A resource availability score for a client device is determined based on metrics of one or more resources of the client device. Client device resources may include a central processing unit, memory, battery and a communications module. Metrics of the resources may include a percentage of CPU load, amount of available memory, remaining battery life, and communication signal quality. A backup urgency score for a file stored on the user device is determined based on metrics of one or more file parameters of the file. File parameters may include file size, file modification timestamp, timestamp of the last file access, file creation time stamp, timestamp of last file backup, and file creator. A determination of whether to back up the file to a storage device is made based on a comparison of the urgency score and the resource availability score. | 10-01-2015 |
20150317467 | APPARATUSES AND METHODS FOR FAST ONBOARDING AN INTERNET-ENABLED DEVICE - Various aspects directed towards automating an onboarding procedure are disclosed. In a first aspect, an administrative communication associated with onboarding an onboardable device is received by an access point (AP) device, such that the administrative communication originates from a device different than the onboardable device. The AP device then enables the onboardable device to access a secure network based on the administrative communication. In another aspect, an identifier is transmitted from an onboardable device while the onboardable device operates in an AP mode. The onboardable device then receives credentials associated with accessing a secure network via an AP device. Here, the credentials received from the AP device are in response to an authentication of the identifier by an administrator. The onboardable device then connects to the secure network by utilizing the credentials. | 11-05-2015 |
20160029190 | RADIO-AGNOSTIC MESSAGE TRANSLATION SERVICE - In various aspects, the disclosure provides a hub that is adapted for radio-agnostic message translation. The hub may be configured to establish a connection with a target device using a first network access technology, receive a first message from a first client device through a connection established on a second network access technology, translate the first message from a first transmission format to obtain a second message in a second transmission format, and transmit the second message to the target device and using the first network access technology. The first network technology may employ a first wireless technology having a range that is less than 100 meters. The first client device may be separated from the target device by a distance that is greater than the range of the first wireless technology | 01-28-2016 |
20160044444 | DETERMINING RANGE IN A WIRELESS SYSTEM - A method includes obtaining a received signal strength indication and processing the received signal strength indication to determine a range between a first device and a second device free of prior configuration data between the first device and the second device. | 02-11-2016 |
20160085440 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING AN ANATOMICALLY ADAPTABLE KEYBOARD - An improved wireless device generates a customized representation of a keyboard for a touch-sensitive screen. The wireless device generates an anatomical model specific to the operator of the wireless device in response to an operator contacting their fingertips in a “typing” position as if the operator were about to use a standard QWERTY keyboard. The anatomical model is used to derive a keyboard layout optimized for a present operator of the wireless device. | 03-24-2016 |
