Abstract
The disclosure is directed to using a change in motion to improve place of relevance (PoR) detection. An aspect determines whether or not a motion state of a mobile device has changed to a new motion state, determines whether or not to trigger the mobile device to scan for available local wireless networks if the motion state has changed, and identifies a PoR based on the scanning.
Claims38
A method for using a change in motion to improve place of relevance (PoR) detection, comprising:
- determining whether or not a motion state of a mobile device has changed to a new motion state;
- if the motion state has changed, determining whether or not to trigger the mobile device to scan for available local wireless networks;
- and
- identifying a PoR based on the scanning.
An apparatus for using a change in motion to improve place of relevance (PoR) detection, comprising:
- logic configured to determine whether or not a motion state of a mobile device has changed to a new motion state;
- logic configured to determine whether or not to trigger the mobile device to scan for available local wireless networks if the motion state has changed;
- and
- logic configured to identify a PoR based on the scanning.
An apparatus for using a change in motion to improve place of relevance (PoR) detection, comprising:
- means for determining whether or not a motion state of a mobile device has changed to a new motion state;
- means for determining whether or not to trigger the mobile device to scan for available local wireless networks if the motion state has changed;
- and
- means for identifying a PoR based on the scanning.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium for using a change in motion to improve place of relevance (PoR) detection, comprising:
- at least one instruction to determine whether or not a motion state of a mobile device has changed to a new motion state;
- at least one instruction to determine whether or not to trigger the mobile device to scan for available local wireless networks if the motion state has changed;
- and
- at least one instruction to identify a PoR based on the scanning.
