ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17965751 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic apparatus that includes a communication circuitry, a power supply, and two processors.

  • The first processor has two modes:
 * In the first mode, it receives power from the power supply and connects with a server through the communication circuitry to transmit and receive information. 
 * In the second mode, it receives either no power or a lower power than the first mode from the power supply.
  • The second processor repetitively outputs a mode switching signal within a preset time interval based on the second mode of the first processor.
 * This signal causes the first processor to switch over to the first mode, where it transmits connectivity keeping information to the server through the communication circuitry. 
 * After transmitting the information, the first processor switches back to the second mode.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • This technology can be used in electronic devices that require intermittent connectivity with a server, such as IoT devices or remote sensors.
  • It can be applied in energy-efficient devices that need to conserve power when not actively transmitting or receiving information.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • This technology solves the problem of maintaining connectivity with a server while conserving power when not actively transmitting or receiving data.
  • It addresses the issue of intermittent power supply by allowing the first processor to operate in a lower power mode when necessary.

Benefits of this technology:

  • The electronic apparatus can conserve power by switching to a lower power mode when not actively transmitting or receiving data.
  • It ensures that connectivity with the server is maintained by periodically switching to the higher power mode to transmit connectivity keeping information.
  • This technology allows for efficient use of power supply and extends the battery life of the electronic apparatus.


Original Abstract Submitted

An example electronic apparatus includes a communication circuitry; a power supply; a first processor configured to have a first mode which receives first power from the power supply and connects with a server through the communication circuitry to transmit and receive information, and a second mode which receives no power or second power lower than the first power from the power supply; and a second processor configured to repetitively output a mode switching signal within a preset range of time interval based on the second mode of the first processor, wherein the first processor is switched over to the first mode based on the mode switching signal, is configured to transmit connectivity keeping information to the server through the communication circuitry and is switched over to the second mode.
