Abstract
This application discloses a novel technique to calculate time of day (TOD) by a user equipment (UE) or an Internet of Things (IoT) device using location coordinates of the radio unit (RU) of an IoT network or another IoT. Once the UE (IoT device) receives location coordinates of the RU or another IoT device, using its own location coordinates can calculate the distance between the RU or another IoT device and the UE (IoT device). If the RU or another IoT device sends a time stamp which indicates TOD at its antenna port in its system information, or broadcast packet, then UE (IoT device) uses this time stamp and its distance from the RU or another IoT device to calculate its TOD.
Claims7
An Internet of Things (IoT) device that is at least one of a moving object, a flying object, and a stationary object comprising:
- a navigation and protection system (NPS) with a transceiver to communicate with at least one of a radio unit (RU) of an IoT network, and a surrounding environment IoT device that is at least one of said moving object, said flying object, and said stationary object to:
- obtain a time stamp that indicates a time of day (TOD) at an antenna port of at least one of said RU, and said surrounding environment IoT device;
- and
- receive a location coordinate that belongs to at least one of said RU, and said surrounding environment IoT device;
- a central processing unit (CPU) within said NPS to use the location coordinate of said IoT device and said location coordinate of at least one of said RU, and said surrounding environment IoT device to calculate a distance between said IoT device and at least one of said RU, and said surrounding environment IoT device;
- said CPU converts said distance to nanosecond and adds it to the time stamp obtained from at least one of said RU, and said surrounding environment IoT device to update said TOD at said IoT device;
- said IoT device uses said TOD to schedule activities of a plurality of monitoring devices used by said NPS;
- wherein said plurality of monitoring devices provide an information data for an artificial intelligent (AI) algorithm executed by said CPU, and said AI algorithm uses said information data to decide to activate at least one of a navigation device, and a protection device.
