Summary of the patent applications from Apple Inc. on October 12th, 2023
Apple Inc. has recently filed several patents related to wireless communication, power-saving modes, device scanning, handover methods, headphone features, and camera interfaces. These patents showcase Apple's ongoing efforts to improve communication technologies, enhance user experiences, and optimize power consumption in their devices.
Notable recent patent applications by Apple Inc. include:
- A communications network with a relay device that can switch between ad hoc and organized modes to balance load and power consumption while relaying messages.
- A method for a wireless device to send a signal to a base station and listen for retransmissions of the response to ensure successful communication.
- A power-saving mode called "dynamic off period" for a base station in a wireless communication system, with two approaches for notifying user equipment about this mode.
- A technology that supports notifications in extended discontinuous reception (eDRX) mode, allowing a device to save power while still receiving important indications.
- A mobile electronic device that can scan for beacon advertisements and send authorization tokens to wireless devices, enabling accessories to remain in near-owner mode.
- A method for a user equipment to perform a handover to a target primary cell and add a target primary secondary cell, adjusting the radio frequency based on specific reference signal occasions.
- Systems and methods for detecting and maintaining wireless devices and accessories that rely on nearby owner devices for periodic maintenance and location tracking.
- A method performed by in-ear headphones to measure fit parameters and transmit them back to the audio source device.
- Features for circumaural and supra-aural headphone designs, including earpad assemblies, power-saving features, sensor configurations, and user comfort features.
- An electronic device with multiple cameras and a digital viewfinder user interface that allows previewing, capturing, and storing visual information from different cameras simultaneously.
These patents demonstrate Apple's commitment to innovation in wireless communication, power management, audio technology, and camera interfaces. By continuously developing and refining these technologies, Apple aims to enhance user experiences and improve the functionality of their devices.
