Method for preventing mistouch by using top-emitted proximity light, and terminal
11606455 · 2023-03-14 · ·

Embodiments provide a proximity sensor located at a side edge of a terminal or a top side edge of the terminal. A first included angle is formed between light emitted by the proximity sensor and a touchscreen of the terminal. The terminal obtains data detected by a motion sensor, and motion data of the terminal based on the data detected by the motion sensor. The terminal determines whether the motion data is less than a first threshold. If the motion data is less than the first threshold, the terminal determines that no external object is currently approaching, and skips performing a mistouch prevention action. If the motion data is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal determines, based on data detected by the proximity sensor, whether an external object is approaching, and determines, based on a determining result, whether to subsequently perform the mistouch prevention action.

Method for IOT device to stagger TX and save power

Disclosed are methods and systems for delaying packet transmissions over a wireless communication channel until a more favorable channel condition is detected. A device may measure a channel metric when it receives periodic beacon signals. The device may compare the channel metric against a programmed metric threshold. If the channel metric is less than the metric threshold, the device may delay the transmission of a packet until a later transmission window or transmit opportunity (TXOP) when the channel metric rises above the metric threshold, indicating the presence of a more favorable condition for transmission, or until a preconfigured timeout period elapses before the more favorable condition is found.

Techniques for managing uplink transmissions for power saving

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may support various extended reality (XR) applications. In some examples of XR applications, features from the real and virtual environments may be overlaid and displayed to a user for consumption via the UE. To avoid visual conflicts, such as misaligning objects from the real and virtual environments, and other visual conflicts, the UE may generate and send pose information to a network (e.g., a server hosting the XR application). The UE may be configured to manage transmission of pose information to the network, which may result in reduced power consumption. For example, the UE may determine a downlink burst occasion for the XR application, generate pose information associated with the UE and the XR application, and transmit the pose information only during the downlink burst occasion.
