    Abstract: The present invention discloses a Bluetooth mesh network system having wake-up management mechanism that includes a control node and low power nodes. The control node broadcasts a wake-up parameter setting packet at broadcast time spots based on a broadcast period. Each of the low power nodes receives the wake-up parameter setting packet to be operated in a wake-up management mode to configure a start time spot, a time length and a period interval length of a wake-up period that is synchronous among the low power nodes accordingly. The control node further transmits data corresponding to the low power nodes in the wake-up period and the low power nodes is operated in a wake-up state within the wake-up period to receive the data from the control node and is operated in a sleep state outside of the wake-up period.

  • Patent number: 11356169
    Abstract: Techniques, systems, devices, and methods for utilizing a mobile communicator for communicating with multiple satellites, e.g., simultaneously over an interval of time, are disclosed. The mobile communicator is disposed on a vehicle, and the multiple satellites may be disposed in different satellite constellations operating in different orbits. The mobile communicator establishes multiple communication links to the multiple satellites by utilizing only the set of antenna resources provided by a single antenna platform or array. Subsets of the antenna resources are dynamically apportioned and adapted, e.g., while the vehicle travels, to establish and maintain different communication links to different satellites via different spatial channels and their respective air interfaces to thereby maintain optimal satellite communicative connectivity. On-board connectivity services for personal electronic devices and/or other on-board applications may be supported by the disclosed techniques.

  • Patent number: 11323969
    Abstract: Novel techniques for pooling the available transmit power of a beam across the subcarriers that are or that are scheduled to be in use (and not across all available subcarriers) are disclosed. The scheduled subcarriers may be located in the same or different carriers of a modulation transmitter modulation system, and the pooled transmit power may be allocated or distributed across the scheduled subcarriers of the beam. Modulation symbols or resource elements may be transmitted in accordance with allocated, per-subcarrier power budgets, thereby maximizing the SNIR of signals that are transmitted in the beam via the scheduled subcarriers. Additionally, the allocation of the pooled transmit power to various subcarriers may continuously and/or dynamically vary over time, e.g., based on traffic demands, interference characteristics, etc., as well as based on subsequent scheduling of subcarriers to transmit subsequent modulation symbols or resource elements.
