| 20110261007 | NOISE CANCELLATION TECHNIQUE FOR CAPACITIVE TOUCHSCREEN CONTROLLER USING DIFFERENTIAL SENSING - A differential sensing scheme provides a means for detecting one or more touch events on a touch sensitive device in the presence of incident noise. Instead of sensing one touch sensitive channel, such as a row, column, or single touch sensor, multiple touch sensitive channels are sampled at a time. By sampling two nearby channels simultaneously and doing the measurement differentially, noise common to both channels is cancelled. The differential sensing scheme is implemented using simple switch-capacitor AFE circuitry. The originally sensed data on each individual channel is recovered free of common-mode noise. The recovered sensed data is used to determine the presence of one or more touch events and if present the location of each touch event on the touch sensitive device. | 10-27-2011 |
| 20110261008 | USE OF RANDOM SAMPLING TECHNIQUE TO REDUCE FINGER-COUPLED NOISE - Random sampling techniques include techniques for reducing or eliminating errors in the output of capacitive sensor arrays such as touch panels. The channels of the touch panel are periodically sampled to determine the presence of one or more touch events. Each channel is individually sampled in a round robin fashion, referred to as a sampling cycle. During each sampling cycle, all channels are sampled once. Multiple sampling cycles are performed such that each channel is sampled multiple times. Random sampling techniques are used to sample each of the channels. One random sampling technique randomizes a starting channel in each sampling cycle. Another random sampling technique randomizes the selection of all channels in each sampling cycle. Yet another random sampling technique randomizes the sampling cycle delay period between each sampling cycle. Still another random sampling technique randomizes the channel delay period between sampling each channel. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20090175591 | MULTIMEDIA SCHEDULER - A song and ad scheduler supporting clip-based and stream-based scheduling of multimedia items generates several hours of schedule in advance. Having multiple channel capability, the scheduler uses as inputs: the channel, associated playlists, rotation pattern for the channel, and associated programming rules to produce a schedule of multimedia items for the channel. Initially, the scheduler produces a schedule for each channel of predetermined length; then it periodically revisits the channel to add more songs, keeping the schedule to the desired length. Length of the initial playlist is configurable. The scheduler uses a producer-consumer model for distributing work. Producer threads periodically scan the system for work to be done. When a producer thread encounters work to be done, e.g. adding to the schedule of a channel, the producer thread places a work request into a queue. Worker threads consume the work requests by fulfilling the requested work. | 07-09-2009 |

| 20110255692 | POWER SAVINGS THROUGH COOPERATIVE OPERATION OF MULTIRADIO DEVICES - Trust establishment in short range protocol pairing between client and proxy devices includes a first aspect in which application level security is used to encrypt all packets transmitted between the client and proxy. An application-based security derives a public key from the General Bootstrapping Architecture (GBA) and used that public key to generate an encryption key in an AES encryption algorithm. A second aspect provides for out of band security to be used to establish short range protocol pairing. In this second aspect, the client and proxy exchange identification information over a third party network that is out of band to the short range protocol. With this identification information exchanged out of band, the client and proxy may establish pairing in the short range protocol. | 10-20-2011 |
| 20110256891 | POWER SAVINGS THROUGH COOPERATIVE OPERATION OF MULTIRADIO DEVICES - Page monitoring in a proxy relationship is optimized through creation of a new page occasion (PO) or paging frame (PF). The new PO/PF includes pages for each client-proxy relationship. Once the new PO/PF is communicated to the proxy, the proxy monitors for the pages of each client by monitoring a single PO/PF. Depending on the embodiment implemented, the network will either continue to also transmit pages during original PO or cease such transmission. On detection of a failed link between the proxy and client, the client may begin to monitor the original pages in such networks, or will begin monitoring using the new PO/PF until the network notifies the client that the state has changed. | 10-20-2011 |
