Abstract: Examples are disclosed for techniques for wireless docking. According to some embodiments, a mobile device may scan for an available docking device, for example a device with one or more I/O devices such as a display. The mobile device may automatically establish a secure wireless link with the docking device, for example, if the docking device is known to the mobile device. However, I/O services to be provided by the docking device are not activated. Instead, the docking device will prompt a user for identification data. If the identification data passes verification, the I/O services may be activated. According to some embodiments, the identification data obtained by the docking device may also be used to wake the mobile device, to login to the mobile device, and/or to unlock the mobile device for user access.

Abstract: Notification methods and devices are described. In notification method, a notification template corresponding to a notification is generated. The notification template can be provided to a docking system connected to a communication device. A notification control signal that corresponds to the notification template can be generated. The docking system is controlled to present the notification in response to the notification control signal. The docking system presenting the notification can use one or resources of the docking system based on the notification template.

Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to methods, system and apparatus to optimize Quality of Service (QoS) for communications using Medium Agnostic Universal Serial Bus (MA USB) protocol. In one embodiment, assignment of specific QoS parameters for certain Endpoint is triggered by the platform running MA USB host once a specific usage model occurs. Once triggered, MA USB Host engages an MA USB Hub or Device in a two-way handshake to communicate QoS parameters. The two-way handshake includes transmitting an Update Endpoint Quality-of-Service (QoS) Request frame to the selected Endpoint Handles at the MA USB Device; and receiving an Update Endpoint QoS Response from the MA USB Device.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a system for non-network controller communication. In general, an example wireless network may comprise a network controller (NC) device and at least one network member (NM) device. The at least one NM device may respond to inquiries received from outside-of-network (OoN) devices by providing at least an NC device name in a user-friendly form. This information may be provided via a new information element (IE). Should the at least one NC device later receive a service discovery request (e.g., from the OoN device), the at least one NC device may determine whether services it may provide are currently unavailable, and may then transmit a service discovery response including at least unavailable service information. In at least one embodiment, service discovery responses may also include information about current consumers of the unavailable services.
