  • Patent number: 11109297
    Abstract: A method of communication between a user terminal powered by a battery and a base station allowing optimization of the management of the battery of the user terminal, includes a step of selecting from among terminals, termed surrounding terminals, powered by battery and situated in a zone within range of the base station, terminals whose distance with the user terminal is less than a predetermined distance and whose battery level is greater than a predetermined threshold, termed neighbour terminals, a step of configuring the neighbour terminals and the user terminal by way of a configuration setpoint, a step of transmitting data between the user terminal and the base station according to the configuration setpoint defining at least one neighbour terminal through which the data pass.

  • Patent number: 10051589
    Abstract: A communication method of a first device over a first radio communication link of a first communication network and a second device over a second radio communication link of a second communication network, includes a step of suspending, during a suspension time interval, transmission of a first signal by the first device over the first radio communication link; and a step of receiving, with the second device, a second signal over the second radio communication link during the suspension time interval.

  • Patent number: 9661578
    Abstract: A battery sharing method to increase the service life of the batteries of PMR terminals having important uses, such as the terminal of the head of a group such as the police, firefighters, or the like, is disclosed. The technique is based on the detection of neighboring networks and/or neighboring nodes. The detection is facilitated by reiterating a selection (or reselection) of cells and a handover (HO)/vertical handover (VHO) procedure, while relaying and coordinating transmission and reception. The aim of the techniques is to improve communications as well as the duration thereof, in order to enable improved management of the battery of each terminal and to broaden coverage in areas that are not served by a network.

  • Patent number: 9161311
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for managing the charge level of a battery of a mobile terminal connected to a network of transmission of information. The method comprises measuring the charge level of the battery. If the charge level of the battery is lower than a predefined threshold of charge level, the method controls the operation of the terminal to reduce its power consumption during an operation of transmission of information from or toward the terminal.
