Abstract: Disclosed herein is system for buffering processor interrupts from active input devices, such as Bluetooth devices, so that they are aligned with a video refresh rate. The system may include a processor that operates in a first operating mode (e.g., a low power mode) and, in response to an interrupt request, switch to a second operating mode (e.g., a higher power mode). The first operating mode may be different from the second operating mode (e.g., each with a different level of power consumption). The system may also include a video subsystem, in communication with the processor, that provides video information at a refresh rate. The system may also include an input subsystem, such as a wireless communication system, in communication with the processor, that receives an activity trigger representing an activity of a input device, such as a human input device, and provides, based on the refresh rate, the activity trigger to the processor as the interrupt request.

Abstract: Generally, this disclosure provides devices, systems and methods for improved transmit power adaptation for platforms with wireless communication capability. A device may include a memory to store a first transmission (Tx) power level and a Tx power determination module to receive a second Tx power level from a device driver, the second Tx power level provided from a Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) associated with a platform hosting the device. The Tx power determination module may further determine a third Tx power level based on a comparison of the first Tx power level and the second Tx power level. The device may further include a radio frequency (RF) transmission module to transmit a wireless signal at the third Tx power level.

Abstract: A communication device and a communication method are provided. Interface devices of the communication device can be respectively configured to communicate with one or more other communication devices using a plurality of communication protocols. The communication device can include a memory that can store a plurality of radio interface drivers (RIDs) respectively associated with the plurality of interface devices. The memory can also store an aggregated wireless driver (AWD) forming an interface between an operating system (OS) of the communication device and the plurality of RIDs.
