  • Patent number: 8204096
    Abstract: An automatic frequency hopping method is provided for use with a wireless device. The wireless device could transmit data in two or more communication frequency bands. According to the counts of successful data transmission in respective communication frequency bands, the reasons of communication failure are analyzed. According to the reasons of communication failure, the automatic frequency hopping method discriminates whether a frequency hopping procedure is performed. Since the frequency hopping procedure is performed when a proper frequency hopping condition is satisfied, the automatic frequency hopping method could achieve the power-saving purpose and avoid the wireless communication interference with other wireless devices.

  • Patent number: 8078779
    Abstract: A data transmission method for use with a wireless mouse includes the following steps. Firstly, a mouse displacement data including a horizontal displacement and a vertical displacement is periodically transmitted from a wireless signal emitter to a wireless signal receiver in every wireless transmission time interval T1. Then, the horizontal displacement and the vertical displacement of the mouse displacement data are partitioned to acquire plural horizontal sub-displacements and plural vertical sub-displacements, respectively. Afterwards, one of the plural horizontal sub-displacements and one of the plural vertical sub-displacements are periodically transmitted from the wireless signal receiver to the computer system in every wired transmission time interval T2. By the data transmission method, the wired report rate is increased without largely increasing power consumption, and the moving trajectory of the wireless becomes smoother.

    Abstract: A synchronous wireless transmission method is used in a synchronous wireless transmission system including a first wireless device for generating a wireless signal, a second wireless device for generating a second wireless signal, and a wireless signal receiver for receiving the first and second wireless signals. The wireless signal receiver receives the first wireless signal in the first receipt time segment and the second wireless signal in the second receipt time segment. When the first or second wireless signal is received, the wireless signal receiver issues a responding signal to the first or second wireless device. According to the responding signal, the first and second wireless device determines whether the time of issuing the first or second wireless signal to the wireless signal receiver is adjusted.

  • Publication number: 20090189860
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method for reducing power consumption of a wireless mouse. At least two sets of mouse moving data are combined into a single packet to be transmitted to a wireless signal receiver. In the wireless signal receiver side, the single packet is divided into the at least two sets of mouse moving data. Since the frequency of transmitting these mouse moving data is reduced, the power consumption of operating the wireless mouse is reduced.
