Abstract
One embodiment of the disclosure sets for a method for synchronizing multiple mobile devices in a wireless network, which includes the steps of calculating a time interval for a first mobile device to respond to a request, receiving timing information of the first mobile device, determining a first offset associated with the first mobile device based on the time interval and the timing information, receiving a first data stream including the timing information of the first mobile device, and inserting a first dataset into the first data stream based on the first offset before transmitting the first data stream.
Claims15
A method to maintain a communication session of an interactive application in a wireless network, comprising:
- determining a first identification information associated with a mobile device;
- in response to the mobile device leaving a first wireless range associated with the wireless network, accessing a second identification information associated with the first identification information, wherein the second identification information is assigned to the mobile device when the mobile device is in a second wireless range associated with the wireless network and registers itself to a stationary device covering the second wireless range;
- and
- maintaining the communication session with the mobile device by utilizing the second identification information in a signaling protocol.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing a sequence of instructions to maintain a communication session of an interactive application in a wireless network having a first computing device and a second computing device, which when executed by the first computing device, causes the first computing device to:
- determine a first identification information associated with a mobile device;
- in response to the mobile device leaving a first wireless range of the first computing device, access a second identification information associated with the first identification information, wherein the second identification information is assigned to the mobile device when the mobile device is in a second wireless range of the second computing device and registers itself to a stationary device covering the second wireless range;
- and
- maintain the communication session with the mobile device by utilizing the second identification information in a signaling protocol.
A computing device configured to maintain a communication session of an interactive application in a wireless network, the computing device comprises:
- a memory unit;
- and
- a processing unit, wherein the processing unit is configured to
- determine a first identification information associated with a mobile device,
- in response to the mobile device leaving a first wireless range of the computing device, access a second identification information associated with the first identification information, wherein the second identification information is assigned to the mobile device when the mobile device is in a second wireless range of another computing device in the wireless network and registers itself to the another computing device, and
- maintain the communication session with the mobile device by utilizing the second identification information in a signaling protocol.
