Abstract:
A wireless device (100) is provided. The wireless device (100) includes a portable communication device (102) and a personal health module (104). The wireless device (100) further includes means for receiving a signal relating to an operating condition of the wireless device (100) that influences operation of the personal health module (104), means for determining whether the operating condition is outside an operating range, and means for disabling components of the wireless device (100). If it is determined that the operating condition is outside the operating range, one or more components of the wireless device (100) will be disabled until the operating condition is within the operating range.
Abstract:
Implementations relate to systems and methods for localized notification that provide localized information to one or more mobile devices in a wireless communication system that are located in one or more geographical regions. The wireless communication system includes a localized notification server that responds to geographically-targeted broadcast requests and localized service or information requests. The localized notification server localizes components of the wireless communication system into sets of localized components that provide wireless communication service to mobile devices in the specific geographical regions. In response to a request to broadcast to a target geographical region, the localized notification server identifies a set of localized components associated with the target geographical region. The localized notification server then broadcasts information to mobile devices actively serviced by the set of localized components.
Abstract:
Técnicas para el manejo de la energía de una batería de un dispositivo móvil. En un aspecto, la energía de la batería puede ser reservada para una aplicación antes de la ejecución de la misma en el dispositivo móvil. La reserva puede asegurar que la aplicación tenga energía de la batería suficiente para su ejecución. En otro aspecto, la energía de la batería puede ser asignada a aplicaciones sobre la base de sus prioridades. Las aplicaciones pueden ser ordenadas sobre la base de sus prioridades, y la energía de la batería disponible para el dispositivo móvil puede ser asignada a una aplicación a la vez, comenzando con la aplicación de más alta prioridad. En aún otro aspecto, la energía de la batería puede ser asignada a aplicaciones sobre la base de la curva de descarga de la batería para el dispositivo móvil. Puede seleccionarse un punto de operación en la curva de descarga de la batería sobre la base de al menos un objetivo. La energía de la batería disponible puede ser determinada sobre la base del punto de operación seleccionado y asignado a las aplicaciones.

Abstract:
Techniques for managing battery power of a mobile device are described. In an aspect, battery power may be reserved for an application prior to execution of the application on the mobile device. The reservation may ensure that the application has sufficient battery power for execution. In another aspect, battery power may be allocated to applications based on their priorities. The applications may be ordered based on their priorities, and the available battery power for the mobile device may be allocated to one application at a time, starting with the highest priority application. In yet another aspect, battery power may be allocated to applications based on a battery discharge curve for the mobile device. An operating point on the battery discharge curve may be selected based on at least one objective. The available battery power may be determined based on the selected operating point and allocated to the applications.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for creating a dynamic GeoFence area by determining an instant reference point using a first set of pseudorange measurements received by a GeoFence device, defining the dynamic GeoFence area referenced to the instant reference point, determining a position fix using a second set of pseudorange measurements, and comparing the position fix to the dynamic GeoFence area. In one aspect, an alert message based on the comparison results is presented to a user.

Abstract:
A wireless device having a remote station portion, such as a cellular telephone, PDA, laptop computer, handheld computer, or the like and a removably connectable medical device portion, such as a blood glucose monitor or the like, is provided. The medical device portion is separated from the remote station portion by an isolation circuit and electromagnetic shielding to inhibit the electronics and radio frequency transmission of the remote station portion interfering with the medical device. Moreover, a control processor in the remote station portion has a battery management module to disable functions as the charge in the power source falls to provide sufficient power for operation of the medical device.
