Communication protocol based on physical configuration of a wireless device
Techniques for communication protocol based on physical configuration of a wireless device are described and may be implemented to adapt to a variety of different wireless scenarios. For instance, configuration of an antenna system of a wireless device is adapted to optimize wireless performance in different physical configurations, such as open configurations and folded configurations. Further, network communications are adapted to optimize wireless communication with a wireless device in different physical configurations of the wireless device. The described techniques, for instance, optimize performance in different frequency bands based on changes in device configuration between open positions and folded positions.

LID ANGLE DETECTION
The present disclosure is directed to a device and method for lid angle detection that is accurate even if the device is activated in an upright position. While the device is in a sleep state, first and second sensor units measure acceleration and angular velocity, and calculate orientations of respective lid components based on the acceleration and angular velocity measurements. Upon the device exiting the sleep state, a processor estimates the lid angle using the calculated orientations, sets the estimated lid angle as an initial lid angle, and updates the initial lid angle using, for example, two accelerometers; two accelerometers and two gyroscopes; two accelerometers and two magnetometers; or two accelerometers, two gyroscopes, and two magnetometers.
