Apple Inc. patent applications published on May 18th, 2023
Summary of the patent applications from Apple Inc. on May 18th, 2023
Apple Inc. has recently filed several patents related to electronic devices, wireless communication systems, and resource allocation. These patents aim to address various challenges in the field and provide innovative solutions to improve user experience, efficiency, and reliability.
One patent application describes an electronic device with a sliding housing and flexible display. The device includes a display supported on the front face of the housing, which can slide between an unexpanded state and an expanded state. The flexible display substrate allows for compact storage of the display when not in use, while also providing the flexibility to adjust the display size as needed. This technology has potential applications in smartphones, tablets, gaming devices, e-readers, and wearable devices.
Another patent application focuses on improving data transmission during the inactive state of user equipment in wireless communication systems. By processing a service configuration signal received from a base station, the user equipment can determine the allowed service configurations for transmission during its inactive state. This technology can enhance the efficiency of data transmission, optimize power consumption, and improve network resource utilization in IoT devices.
Apple Inc. has also filed patents related to evaluating user equipment in a communication network, facilitating inactive state transmissions for both user equipment and base stations, and improving the NR RACH procedure for non-terrestrial networks. These patents address challenges such as efficient resource scheduling, collision detection and avoidance, and optimizing communication performance in various wireless communication systems.
Notable applications of these patents include enhancing the efficiency and reliability of communication networks, improving user experience with reduced packet loss and latency, optimizing power consumption and network resource utilization in IoT devices, and enabling seamless integration of non-terrestrial networks into existing cellular communication systems.
Summary of notable applications:
- Enhancing the efficiency and reliability of communication networks.
- Optimizing power consumption and network resource utilization in IoT devices.
- Improving user experience with reduced packet loss and latency.
- Enabling seamless integration of non-terrestrial networks into existing cellular communication systems.
