Patent number: 11496983Abstract: A technique for reducing interference on conducted RF links involves a determination of active wireless channels in an electronic device. For example, the device can determine whether there are any active cellular, WiFi, and/or Bluetooth channels. If so, any active channels can be removed from a list of possible channels that can be used for generating the RF signals for the conducted RF link. If any idle channels remain available, one or more may be selected for use for the conducted RF link. Those idle channels having a higher offset from any active channels may be given a greater weight in the selection since they should be less likely to be subject to interference. If not, one of the least crowded active channels may be selected for use for the conducted RF link.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2015Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Chia Yiaw Chong, Hsin-Yuo Liu, Mohit Narang, Peter M.

Patent number: 10390313Abstract: In order to improve communication with another electronic device, during an advertising mode an electronic device (such as a smartphone) may transmit a packet with advertising information using a default transmit power level. Then, based on feedback about a performance metric associated with the communication from the other electronic device, the electronic device may selectively increase the transmit power level for a subsequent packet. Because this selective increase in the transmit power level may increase the overall power consumption, the change in the transmit power level also may depend on one or more factors, such as a battery power level of the electronic device. However, the selective increase in the transmit power level may, in some instances, decrease the overall power consumption by reducing or eliminating retries.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2016Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Mohit Narang, Peter Agboh, Vusthla Sunil Reddy, Chia Yiaw Chong, Indranil S.

Patent number: 9635677Abstract: Devices at either end of a wireless communication link are each configured to support multiple different link settings. During communication, a device that is receiving data can monitor the signal quality and initiate a dynamic transition to a new link setting if performance of the current link setting falls below a lower threshold or exceeds an upper threshold. Dynamic link adaptation can be implemented within a wireless communication interface of the device and can be transparent to application and/or operating system software executing on the device.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2015Date of Patent: April 25, 2017Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Hsin-Yuo Liu, Peter M.

Patent number: 9549387Abstract: The present techniques relate to reducing interference on conducted RF links by utilizing country information to determine where an electronic device is located, and using such information to select sub-bands or channels that are not available for wireless transmission to be used for transmission of signals via the conducted RF links. Because the conducted RF links operate on frequency bands that are different from the frequency bands used for wireless communications in a given country, there is less likelihood that wireless communications will create interference in the signals being transmitted via the conducted RF links.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2015Date of Patent: January 17, 2017Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Chia-Yiaw Chong, Hsin-Yuo Liu, Mohit Narang, Peter M.
