20090007006 | AUTOMATIC SCROLLING - Techniques for scrolling through displayed information are disclosed. For instance, an apparatus includes a scrolling management module to set one or more automatic scrolling preferences, and an application to output a content item in accordance with the one or more automatic scrolling preferences. Examples of such scrolling preferences include scrolling speeds, designated input mechanism(s) to adjust scrolling, and the activation/deactivation of orientation-based scrolling. | 01-01-2009 |
20100285817 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING LOCATION-BASED SERVICES TO A MOBILE COMPUTING DEVICE HAVING A DUAL PROCESSOR ARCHITECTURE - Various embodiments of systems and techniques for providing location-based services (LBS) to a mobile computing device having a dual processor architecture are described. In one or more embodiments, the mobile computing device may comprise or implement hardware and/or software configured to enable LBS and data communications sessions using a single active data stack at any particular point in time. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 11-11-2010 |
20100309898 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF WIRELESS DEVICE ACTIVITY MESSAGING - A method and system of reachability indication between a wireless device and at least one push server, the method comprising the steps of: sending device status information from the wireless device to the at least one push server; and receiving the status information at the at least one push server; wherein the at least one push server is enabled to selectively start and stop serving the wireless device on the basis of the status information. The method further comprises sending status information to a packet data serving node that stores a list of push servers associated with a wireless device, and having the packet data serving node forward the status information to the push server. The system and method further includes selectively starting and stopping the serving of the wireless device by the push server during a voice call. | 12-09-2010 |
20110149917 | Method and Apparatus for Compensating Code Channel Power in a Transmitter - It has now been found that in some transmitter implementations which transmit multiple code channels, for example CDMA transmitters, the observed power for each code channel at the output relative to the other code channels is dependent upon the total transmit power due to non-linearities in the transmitter. Methods and apparatus are provided which use pre-set digital gains or digital gain adjustments to compensate for the non-linearities as a function of total transmit power such that at the output, the desired relative powers are observed. | 06-23-2011 |
20130260758 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR SYNCHRONIZATION RECOVERY IN A HYBRID NETWORK - Methods and apparatus for synchronizing operational state during hybrid network operation. In one embodiment, the various access technologies that makeup the hybrid network not fully synchronized. Thus, a wireless device operating in a mixed mode must be capable of managing synchronization across multiple access technologies. The wireless device is configured to estimate an expected “tune-away” period when disengaging with a one access technology to address events (for example, link maintenance, calls, data, and the like) or perform monitoring on a second access technology. The estimate is then used by the device to adjust its operational parameters on the technology from which it is tuning away. This ensures smooth switching away from and back to the various network technologies. | 10-03-2013 |
20140073366 | Conflict Avoidance in a Device Configured to Operate According to Multiple Cellular Communication Protocols - Avoiding conflicts between radio access technologies (RATs) in a device configured to operate according to multiple RATs. The device may be operated in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode according to each of a first RAT and a second RAT using a shared radio. It may be determined that a conflicting wakeup time is scheduled according to DRX cycles of the first and second RATs. A subscriber identity of the device may be changed in response to determining that a conflicting wakeup time is scheduled according to DRX cycles of the first and second RATs. | 03-13-2014 |
20140204737 | REDUCING ROUND-TRIP TIMES FOR TCP COMMUNICATIONS - The disclosed embodiments provide a system that processes network packets. Upon receiving a first Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) header for a first TCP segment from a network link, the system immediately provides a portion of the first TCP header to a transport layer prior to receiving all payload data for the first TCP segment. Next, the system uses the transport layer to transmit a first acknowledgment of the first TCP segment to the network link, wherein the first acknowledgment reduces a round-trip time (RTT) associated with the first TCP segment. | 07-24-2014 |
20140247811 | HetNet Mobility Management - A wireless communication system is presented for robust mobility management in a HetNet communication system. A source cell can prepare a macro cell and a target small cell as handover candidates during handover decision making and/or preparation. The mobile device is informed about the prepared macro cell and target small cell using radio resource control (RRC) messaging. After receiving a handover command or detecting radio frequency (RF) loss, the mobile device can try to connect with the target small cell. If the mobile device is unable to connect to the target small cell, the UE can fall back and connect to the macro cell. | 09-04-2014 |
