VARIABLE INTERVAL FOR PERIODIC FIX REQUESTS OF MULTIPLE CLIENTS

摘要

A hub can service data requests for various different clients having different periodic fix intervals. The sensor hub detects a specified value on a timer, and adjusts a count associated with each client by the specified value. The adjustment can be either to increment or decrement, depending on the implementation. If the adjustment to any count causes the count associated with the client to reach the periodic fixed interval associated with the client, the sensor hub notifies the client. For counts that have not reached the respective fixed periodic request interval, the sensor hub iterates for the next specified value for the timer.

1. A method for managing periodic fix requests, comprising:
detecting that a timer has incremented a specified period; adjusting by the specified period a count associated with each of multiple clients, the multiple clients having different fixed periodic request intervals with a sensor hub processor that provides data to each of the clients at the respective different fixed periodic request intervals; determining if the adjusting causes any count to reach the respective fixed periodic request interval for the associated client; and notifying any client whose count has reached the fixed periodic request interval.
