A method for identifying an interfering transmitter in a network is disclosed. The method includes receiving an interference indication indicating interference between transmitters in the network. The method includes ceasing transmitting operations of all of the transmitters in the network for a threshold period of time. The method includes soliciting an interference assessment of the network for the threshold period of time when all of the transmitters in the network ceased the transmitting operations. When the interference assessment indicates cessation of the interference between the transmitters in the network, the method includes determining that the interfering transmitter resides inside of the network; and executing an interference isolation routine configured to identify the interfering transmitter.
A wearable device for information delivery may comprise a physiological sensor, a microprocessor, a display and a wearable housing. The wearable device may effectively receive a signal, convert the signal into information and renders a layout on a display. A method for information delivery may comprise signal reception step, signal transformation step and information visualization step. The method may be extensively applied in a wearable device or a device comprising at least a physiological sensor, a microprocessor and a display.
Proposed is a bracelet-type transmission/reception device comprising: a cartilage conduction vibration source provided in a portion to be attached to a wrist; a speaker; a variable directional microphone; and a control unit which sets the directivity of the variable directional microphone to the back side of a hand when the speaker is used and sets the directivity of the variable directional microphone to the palm side of the hand when the cartilage conduction vibration source is used. The bracelet-type transmission/reception device is provided together with a display means for information relating to a transmission/reception method or a handling explanation medium or advertising medium having the information relating to the transmission/reception method. An example of a method for use thereof is to conduct the vibration of the cartilage conduction vibration source to a thumb and to bring the thumb into contact with a tragus in a state where the back of the hand faces forward. The cartilage conduction vibration source is also used as a vibration source of an incoming vibrator, and when the cartilage conduction vibration source vibrates for cartilage conduction, a vibrational component in a low-frequency range that induces a sense of vibration is cut. The cartilage conduction vibration source vibrates for notification by announcement voice data in a storage unit.
Systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for dynamically charging an internal battery of a smart card from an interface device (such as a terminal) so that the battery life may be extended. A smart card device detects that it has interfaced with an interface device and that voltage is now being provided to the smart card device. The smart card device may divert some or most of the current being provided with the voltage to charge an internal battery of the smart card device, either concurrent to other communications between the smart card device and the interface device or before/after relevant communications are completed. As a result, the use of a smart card device contributes to the charge of the smart card device's internal battery, instead of draining it.
Embodiments of the disclosure are directed to performing a transaction between a mobile device and an access device. Value information is provided to the access device by the mobile device. The value information is not necessary to complete the transaction.
