An antenna device has a radiating unit having a plurality of antennas, configured to emit a radio signal with a radiation pattern. In addition, the antenna device has a calculator configured to generate and to apply to the plurality of antennas a plurality of feed signals based on an identification signal provided in order to generate the radio signal. The calculator is additionally configured to control the feed signals in a time-varying manner so that the radio signal is emitted with a time-varying radiation pattern.

A terminal installs, according to a type of an HCE application, the HCE application in a terminal environment corresponding to the type of the HCE application. The terminal parses a first identifier of the HCE application and a second identifier included in the HCE application, where the first identifier identifies the HCE application in the terminal, and the second identifier identifies a message flow between a card reading device and the HCE application. The terminal registers routing information of the HCE application with the TEE, where the routing information includes the first identifier, the second identifier, and the terminal environment in which the HCE application is installed. An HCE application with two different security levels, a TEE and an REE, is supported on a terminal.

In an approach for determining relative positioning in a multiple display grid, a processor receives positioning information from sensors operably affixed to at least a first display and a second display. A processor analyzes the positioning information to determine a relative positioning between at least the first display and the second display. A processor generates an extended display on the at least the first display and the second display, based on the analyzed positioning information.

A remote data concentrator includes an enclosure with an interior divided into first and second compartments, a first transceiver, and a second transceiver. The first transceiver is seated within the first compartment and the second transceiver is seated within the second compartment. The first and second compartments are radio-frequency isolated such that the transceivers can independently communicate with external wireless devices and communicate with one another for testing readiness of the RDC for communication with external wireless devices.

A method and system for NFC-based mobile terminal password storage and recovery is provided. The method includes: binding a mobile terminal and an NFC tag; encrypting password information of the mobile terminal utilizing an identifier of the bound NFC tag; contacting and reading the NFC tag through the mobile terminal if a password input interface is opened and a password is inputted; and decrypting encrypted password information through the identifier of the bound NFC tag and inputting the password obtained after the decrypting into the password input interface if the current NFC tag is a bound NFC tag.

Systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for improving ease in transmitting information between peer devices. Communications devices establish a peer group. Each communications device in the group assigns different sections of its touchscreen to the other devices in the group. To transfer information to another device in the group, the user swipes on the touchscreen towards the assigned section for the target communications device. Upon detecting the swipe, and determining that the swipe was towards the assigned section, the communications device initiates a transfer of the information to the target communications device. This may involve confirmation at the device or a paired device before transfer, or no confirmation. Receipt of the information at the target communications device may trigger notifications to be displayed. It may also trigger a request for acceptance of the transfer at the target communications device after which receipt is confirmed.

A Physical Layer (PHY) of a host system of an electronic device may be implemented as a contactless PHY (Host-cPHY) for extremely high frequency (EHF) contactless communication and the operation of EHF transmitters (TX), receivers (RX) and transceivers (EHF-XCVR) in an extremely high frequency integrated circuit (EHF IC) of the electronic device. The Host-cPHY translates logical communications requests from the Link Layer (LINK) into hardware-specific operations to affect transmission or reception of signals over an EHF contactless link). The Link Layer (LINK) may also be optimized as a contactless Link Layer (cLINK) for EHF contactless communication. Multiple data streams may be transported over the EHF contactless link over a range of frequencies.

A localization system includes a plurality of radio frequency readers having transceivers and antennas. Adjustable configuration settings allow for configuration adjustments including signal strength, antenna gain, antenna polarization, and antenna orientation. A computer system is coupled with the radio frequency readers and is configured to determine a first location of an object based on data from the readers and compare it with a second location of the object based on data from a global positioning system device. The computer system is configured to perform an action based upon the determination that the first location and the second location are within a range, including that they are at the same location.

An electronic device having an attachment part that attaches/detaches the electronic device to/from a predetermined member; a physical quantity sensor detecting a physical quantity affecting the predetermined member according to a movement of a human body; and a communication unit configured to communicate with an external device and transmit the physical quantity detected by the physical quantity sensor to the external device.

Conduit structures for redirecting extremely high frequency (EHF) signals are disclosed herein. The conduit structures discussed herein are designed to re-direct EHF or RF signal energy from a first signal path to a second signal path. The conduit structures according to embodiments discussed herein can re-direct the RF signal energy while simultaneously adhering to specified signaling characteristic of the RF signal and minimizing stray RF signal radiation within a device to support device-to-device contactless communications.
