Publication number: 20240107498Abstract: Techniques are described herein for smart page scanning through identifier sensing, An example method includes a first core receiving, by a first core of a first computing device, a first paging message from a second device at a first duration. The first computing device can determine that a second core of the first computing device is performing an operation that prevents completion of a paging process. The first computing device can determine a second duration for a second paging message based at least in part on determining that the second core is performing the operation. The first computing device can cause the second core to scan for the second paging message from the second computing device at the second duration. The second core can receive the second paging message at the second duration.

Publication number: 20240107500Abstract: Techniques are described herein for low power page scanning through identifier sensing. An example method includes a first computing device determining that an operation of a first core of the first computing device during a first duration corresponds to a paging message scan by a second core of the first computing device scheduled during a second duration. The first computing device can determine the operation of the first core prevents transmission of a paging message response for establishing a connection with a second computing device via a short range transmission protocol. The first computing device can determine a third duration for the paging message scan such that the operation of a first core does not prevent the transmission of the paging message response. The first computing device can cause the second core to scan for a paging message during the third duration.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Applicant: Apple Inc.Inventors: Xianbo Chen, David J.
