20140285145 | SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR CHARGING MULTIPLE POWER RECEIVERS IN A WIRELESS CHARGING ENVIRONMENT - A wireless power charging system and a method thereof are provided. The system includes a power transmitter configured to charge one or more power receivers. The power transmitter includes a signal and control unit configured to detect the one or more power receivers present within a radio frequency range of a power transmitter, transmit a request for discovering each of the one or more power receivers, and determine whether a response is received from each of the one or more power receivers. The power transmitter further includes a regulator unit connected to the signal and control unit configured to modulate an amount of radiation to be transmitted based on the number of power receivers that provided a response and a power conversion unit connected to the regulator unit transmitting energy radiation to charge the one or more power receivers. | 09-25-2014 |
20140328194 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR HANDLING INTERFERENCE BETWEEN A LOW POWER NETWORK AND A HIGH POWER NETWORK SHARING A COMMON FREQUENCY BAND - A method and a system for handling interference between a low power network and a high power network sharing a common frequency band are provided. The method includes receiving an association request message containing a set of parameters from the low power device. The method further includes determining a second set of parameters for transmission of the data in the uplink direction based on the first set of parameters, where the second set of parameters indicates resources allocated to the low power device for transmitting the data in a presence of interference from the high power network device on the common frequency band. Moreover, the method includes sending an association response message containing the second set of parameters to the low power device in response to the association request message. | 11-06-2014 |
20140351446 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING LOGICAL CHANNELS FOR COMMUNICATION - An apparatus and method for providing one or more protocols for one or more electronic devices are provided. The method includes establishing, by an electronic device configured to provide a framework interface by executing instructions stored in a memory, one or more physical channels with an external electronic device, using one or more communication modules, executing, by the electronic device, two or more application programs to interface with the framework interface, and communicating, via the framework interface, data from the two or more application programs through the one or more physical channels to the external electronic device, using at least one logical channel or session for a respective one of the two or more application programs. | 11-27-2014 |
20140351832 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE USING FRAMEWORK INTERFACE FOR COMMUNICATION - An apparatus and method for providing one or more protocols for one or more electronic devices are provided. The method includes establishing, by an electronic device configured to provide a framework interface by executing instructions stored in a memory, one or more physical channels with an external electronic device, using one or more communication modules, executing, by the electronic device, two or more application programs to interface with the framework interface, and communicating, via the framework interface, data from the two or more application programs through the one or more physical channels to the external electronic device, using at least one logical channel or session for a respective one of the two or more application programs. | 11-27-2014 |
20150038083 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SWITCHING COORDINATOR IN A PERSONAL AREA NETWORK - A method, an apparatus, and a system for switching coordinators in a Personal Area Network (PAN) are provided. The method includes initiating a request for switching at least one device present in a network session to a first priority PAN coordinator, the initiated request including a count of the at least one device, transmitting the initiated request to the first priority PAN coordinator, the initiated request including a requirement for supporting the at least one device of that count, determining whether the first priority PAN coordinator is capable of supporting the at least one device, and switching, when the first priority PAN coordinator is capable of supporting the at least one device, the network session of the at least one device with the first priority PAN coordinator to facilitate establishment of the network session with the first priority PAN coordinator. | 02-05-2015 |
20150043493 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SUPPORTING COEXISTENCE OF MULTIPLE RADIO - For a system providing coexistence between a WPAN coordinator and WLAN Access Point (AP), the WPAN coordinator requests WLAN AP for WPAN operation in a selected WLAN channel. The WLAN AP responds with the allocated time limit for which the WPAN operation can be performed. After expiration of the allocated time limit, the WPAN coordinator relinquishes the channel to the WLAN AP. A method addresses the operation of the WPAN system in 2.4 GHz ISM band when a non-overlapping WPAN channel selection is infeasible. | 02-12-2015 |
