DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION ABOUT COMMUNICATION STATE OF NETWORK IN ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18103785 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INFORMATION ABOUT COMMUNICATION STATE OF NETWORK IN ELECTRONIC DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a display, a communication circuit, and a memory. The device is capable of transmitting a designated packet to an external electronic device through a designated network. It can receive feedback information from the external device, including the strength of the received signal, in response to the transmission. The device then determines the communication state of the network based on the received feedback information and displays an indicator on the display to indicate the communication state.

  • The electronic device has a display, communication circuit, and memory.
  • It can transmit a designated packet to an external device through a designated network.
  • Feedback information, including signal strength, is received from the external device.
  • The communication state of the network is determined based on the received feedback information.
  • An indicator is displayed on the device's display to represent the communication state.

Potential Applications

  • This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, or other electronic devices with communication capabilities.
  • It can be applied in IoT devices to monitor and display the communication status of connected devices.
  • This technology can be useful in network troubleshooting and diagnostics.

Problems Solved

  • The technology helps users determine the communication state of a network.
  • It provides feedback information, such as signal strength, to assess the quality of the connection.
  • Users can quickly identify if there are any issues with the network or the connected device.

Benefits

  • Users can easily monitor the communication state of a network through the displayed indicator.
  • The technology provides real-time feedback on the strength of the signal received from the external device.
  • It simplifies network troubleshooting by visually indicating the communication state.


Original Abstract Submitted

According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, an electronic device comprises: a display, a communication circuit, and a memory which stores commands, wherein the communication circuit is configured to: transmit a designated packet to an external electronic device through a designated network; receive feedback information, including the strength of a signal received from the electronic device, from the external electronic device in response to the transmission of the designated packet; determine the communication state of the designated network based on the received feedback information; and display, on the display, an indicator indicating the communication state based on the determined communication state of the designated network.
