  • System and method for obfuscating location of a mobile device
    Patent number: 12279107
    Abstract: A system and a method for obfuscating a mobile device's location are provided. For privacy or security reasons, the user of a mobile device may desire to prevent the mobile device from reporting the mobile device's true location. To prevent a mobile device from determining its location accurately, an RF enclosure encapsulates the mobile device and prevents the mobile device from receiving RF signals from sources outside of the enclosure. Within the enclosure, antenna modules broadcast RF signals, such as cellular-network signals, Wi-Fi signals, Bluetooth signals, or GPS signals, that contain information associated with a user-selected target location. The mobile device receives the RF signals from the antenna modules and determines that it is located at the target location rather than the true location.

  • Default boost mode state for devices
    Patent number: 12277020
    Abstract: One or more components of a computing device are run by default in a boost mode state. The one or more components continue to run in the boost mode state until the boost mode state is no longer sustainable, e.g., due to power consumption of the one or more components or temperature of the one or more components. The one or more components are switched to a reduced power state (e.g., a non-boost mode state) in response to the boost mode state no longer being sustainable. When operating the one or more components in the boost mode state again becomes sustainable due to power consumption or temperature of the one or more components, the one or more components are returned to the default boost mode state.
