Abstract
An apparatus for communications configured to support first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence. The apparatus further configured to select one of the first and second channels for communications to avoid a collision of information that would otherwise occur based on their pseudorandom sequences.
Claims40
An apparatus for communications, comprising:
- a processing system configured to:
- support first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence;
- determine whether a collision of information on the first and second channels would occur based on the pseudorandom sequences;
- and
- select, based on the collision determination, between using one of the first and second channels for communications or using both of the first and second channels for communications.
A method for communications for an apparatus, comprising:
- supporting first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence;
- determining whether a collision of information on the first and second channels would occur based on the pseudorandom sequences;
- and
- selecting, based on the collision determination, between using one of the first and second channels for communications or using both of the first and second channels for communications.
An apparatus for communications, comprising:
- means for supporting first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence;
- means for determining whether a collision of information on the first and second channels would occur based on the pseudorandom sequences;
- and
- means for selecting, based on the collision determination, between using one of the first and second channels for communications or using both of the first and second channels for communications.
A computer-program product for wireless communications, comprising:
- non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising codes executable by at least one processor to:
- support first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence;
- determine whether a collision of information on the first and second channels would occur based on the pseudorandom sequences;
- and
- select, based on the collision determination, between using one of the first and second channels for communications or using both of the first and second channels for communications.
A headset, comprising:
- a processing system configured to:
- support first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence,
- determine whether a collision of information on the first and second channels would occur based on the pseudorandom sequences, and
- select, based on the collision determination, between using one of the first and second channels for communications or using both of the first and second channels for communications;
- and
- a transducer configured to provide an audio output based on information from at least one of the first and second channels.
A watch comprising:
- a processing system configured to:
- support first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence,
- determine whether a collision of information on the first and second channels would occur based on the pseudorandom sequences, and
- select, based on the collision determination, between using one of the first and second channels for communications or using both of the first and second channels for communications;
- and
- a user interface configured to provide an indication based on information from at least one of the first and second channels.
A sensing device for wireless communications, comprising:
- a processing system configured to:
- support first and second spread-spectrum channels, each of the first and second channels being based on a different pseudorandom sequence,
- determine whether a collision of information on the first and second channels would occur based on the pseudorandom sequences, and
- select, based on the collision determination, between using one of the first and second channels for communications or using both of the first and second channels for communications;
- and
- a sensor configured to provide information to at least one of the first and second channels.
