METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PERFORMING COMMUNICATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18151912 titled 'METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PERFORMING COMMUNICATION
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a method and device for determining the distance to an external electronic device using communication modules and time measurements.
- The device includes a communication module, memory, and processor.
- The processor broadcasts poll messages with distance measurement cycles.
- The device receives response messages from external electronic devices.
- The response messages include a time-error applied response time.
- The device determines the distance to the external electronic device based on the time error-applied response time.
Potential Applications
- Indoor positioning systems
- Asset tracking
- Robotics and automation
- Internet of Things (IoT) devices
Problems Solved
- Accurate distance measurement to external electronic devices
- Simplified communication and measurement process
- Efficient and reliable determination of distance
Benefits
- Improved accuracy in determining distance
- Cost-effective solution

- Enhanced efficiency and productivity
Original Abstract Submitted
A method and a device are provided. The device includes at least one communication module, a memory, and at least one processor operatively connected to the at least one communication module and the memory, wherein the at least one processor is configured to broadcast a first poll message including a first distance measurement cycle by using the at least one communication module, broadcast a second poll message including a second distance measurement cycle by using the at least one communication module, receive, from at least one external electronic device, a response message including a time-error applied response time, and determine the distance to the at least one external electronic device based on the time error-applied response time.
