  • Publication number: 20240015482
    Abstract: A device and a method for controlling radiation from a local radio wave communication device, in particular the radiation of radio waves for a local wireless communication device, such as Wifi™, Bluetooth™ etc. The control device includes a controller of a direction of transmission of local radio waves from the communication device. Thus, since the direction of transmission of the radio waves is controlled, a broadcasting thereof to outside of a residence can be avoided and risk of hacking can be limited. In addition, this can also reduce unnecessary exposure to radio waves, in particular by avoiding the transmission of radio waves to bedrooms.

  • Patent number: 11741919
    Abstract: A permanent data indicator and managing and adapting methods are provided. In particular, the permanent indicator is a pictogram permanently present on a screen of a terminal in active mode. The permanent indicator relates to a second datum and being able, furthermore, to form a permanent indicator relating to a first datum distinct from the second datum, the first datum being delivered by a first process implemented by the terminal. Thus, a given indicator is able to permanently inform the user of an active terminal of the value of the distinct datum, for example the permanent pictogram of a clock will indicate the time but also the time remaining to the next alarm, the weather forecast for the next 12 or 24 hours, air-quality, etc. The management of the permanent indicators will therefore be optimized.

  • Patent number: 11632350
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing sharing of a message of a first type through a communication network. The method includes, following selection of a sharing command from an interface for reproducing the first message of the first type, integrating content of the first message of the first type into a second message of a second type to be transmitted through the communication network, the second type being distinct from the first type. Thus, a message of a first type can be shared by using a messaging of a distinct type, for example an email can be shared by SMS, MMS, instant messages, Tweet (registered trademark), etc.

  • Patent number: 11108904
    Abstract: Embodiments discussed herein relate to automatic communication management, such as automated closure of a communication in circumstances where establishment of the communication is accidental, particularly from mobile terminals. A method of use of automatic communication management is disclosed. The method can include a triggering, following establishment of a communication between at least a communication terminal of the user and at least one other communication terminal, an activated automatic communication management which enables triggering of a closure of the established communication in progress as a function of the detected vocal sound level on at least one audio stream of the established communication in progress. In this way, if establishment of the communication is detected as being unintentional because of the vocal sound level of the communication, the communication will be closed.

  • Patent number: 11032171
    Abstract: A router of a domestic network and a method for supervising use of a domestic network. The router is able to be connected to several communication terminals and includes a supervisor of the resources of the domestic network on the basis of real-time data of use of the resources of the domestic network by communication terminals connected to the domestic network. Thus, the router has at its disposal, at a given instant, not only overall up-going and down-going bitrates but also the share of these bitrates relating to at least one connected terminal, or indeed the share of these bitrates relating to connected terminals.
