  • Patent number: 8536975
    Abstract: A control method for a handheld terminal, including the steps of: reproducing and outputting a piece of music in accordance with a reproduction list; detecting motion of the terminal in real space and determining whether or not the detected motion corresponds to a motion situation where the terminal is moving in real space; obtaining, on the basis of motion information derived from the motion of the terminal, the movement distance of the terminal in real space when the terminal is determined to be in a motion situation where the terminal is moving in real space; comparing the movement distance with a predetermined distance determination threshold and determining whether or not the movement distance exceeds the distance determination threshold; and changing the reproduction list of music to be reproduced, when the movement distance is determined to exceed the distance determination threshold.

  • Patent number: 7016691
    Abstract: Regulating the unnecessary handover control count and reducing the power consumption of a radio mobile station thereby reducing the load on an entire radio telecommunications system to maintain stable communications. By adding a position calculator, a direction calculator and a velocity calculator to a radio mobile station and adding the information on a radio base station and the peripheral radio base stations into report information used by the radio base station, handover control considers the position, direction, and velocity as well as the downlink communications quality according to the related art. This regulates the unnecessary handover control count and reduces the load on the entire radio telecommunications system and the power consumption of the radio mobile station.
