DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING DATA - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17958009 titled 'DEVICE AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING DATA
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an electronic device that can communicate with multiple external devices through different communication links. The device has a memory, a communication circuit, and a processor.
- The device can transmit data to each external device simultaneously through the different communication links.
- While transmitting data, the device also monitors for any broadcast data being received.
- If a specific condition is met, the device can switch from transmitting the original data to transmitting the received broadcast data to at least one of the external devices.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This technology can be used in smartphones, tablets, or other electronic devices that need to communicate with multiple external devices simultaneously.
- It can be applied in smart home systems where the device needs to transmit data to different smart devices within the home.
- This technology can also be used in industrial settings where multiple machines or sensors need to communicate with a central control system.
Problems solved by this technology:
- This technology solves the problem of efficiently transmitting data to multiple external devices simultaneously.
- It addresses the issue of handling broadcast data while transmitting other data to external devices.
- It provides a mechanism to switch between transmitting different types of data based on specific conditions.
Benefits of this technology:
- The device can transmit data to multiple external devices simultaneously, improving efficiency and reducing communication delays.
- The ability to monitor and handle broadcast data allows for better coordination and synchronization between devices.
- The flexibility to switch between transmitting different types of data based on conditions provides adaptability and versatility in communication.
Original Abstract Submitted
According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise a memory, a communication circuit configured to perform communication with at least two external electronic devices through at least two communication links, and at least one processor operatively connected with the memory and the communication circuit. The memory may store instructions configured to, when executed, cause the at least one processor to, transmit first data to each of the at least two external electronic devices through the at least two communication links. The processor further monitors whether second data, which is broadcast data, is received while transmitting the first data. The processor further transmits the second data, instead of the first data, to at least one of the at least two external electronic devices based on a set condition.
