Abstract: Described herein are technologies related to an implementation of improving power and performance of a portable device by controlling background traffic of one or more device applications based upon a determined and measured radio link condition.

Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating detection and communication of geo-locations for devices according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes tracking, at a first smart device, one or more devices including a second smart device, and first and second smart devices including a computing device, and establishing a first connection with the second smart device, establishing further comprising exchanging first location data between the first smart device and the second smart device, establishing further including communicating a first current location associated with the first smart device to the second smart device. The method may further include identifying a second current location associated with the second smart device. The second current location may be initially recorded and iteratively rewritten at a first local memory of the first smart device.

Abstract: Validation information is communicated in a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connected session. Validation data is generated using said validation information. An advertisement string is broadcast from the BLE device in a connectionless session along with said validation data.

Abstract: Examples of a communication device and methods for synched distributed advertisement for device-to-device are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a method can include transmitting, from a first device of a publishing group, at a group publishing beacon interval (T), a first publishing beacon (PB) including social information of the first device and social information of (N?1) other devices, wherein the group publishing beacon interval (T) represents a preset interval of time between each successive publishing beacon transmission of the publishing group, and wherein the first publishing beacon and the each successive publishing beacon includes a first value representative of the group publishing beacon interval.

Abstract: A method of determining proximity of Bluetooth/Bluetooth Low Energy (BT/BLE) devices, in a connectionless session includes executing a contiguity profile at a first device, the contiguity profile providing for connectionless proximity determination. The method further includes determining a proximity of a second device using Bluetooth/Bluetooth Low Energy (BT/BLE) protocol without establishing a Bluetooth/Bluetooth Low Energy (BT/BLE) connection to the second device.
