  • Patent number: 10880691
    Abstract: A determination is made that a mobile device is associated with a reference activity of a user based on motion, orientation, rotational, magnetic field, and/or location data provided by sensors of the device. Activity data associated with the reference activity is obtained from the sensor-provided data. The activity data is recorded on the device for a configured period of time after which it is determined that the device is no longer performing the reference activity. The retained activity data for the reference activity is sent from the device to a network-based behavior analyzer when a network connection is available from the device. The network-based behavior analyzer derives user behaviors for the reference activity based on the activity data.

  • Patent number: 6778586
    Abstract: The radio communication apparatus (10) comprises a buffer (14) which temporarily stores data to be sent, a transmission/receiving circuit (12) having a data transmission circuit (30) and a data receiving circuit (40). The data transmission circuit (30) includes an input processor (41) which generates, when transmitting the data, a preamble to output it to a QPSK modulator (42), thereafter reads from the buffer (14) a data row of 256 bits and outputs it to the QPSK modulator (42). Accordingly, the transmission circuit (30) is constituted such that the data sets each including the preamble and the data row are repeatedly transmitted. On the other hand, the receiving circuit (40) includes a DMF (86) which accomplishes acquisition using a portion in the received data corresponding to the preamble.
