Using motion to optimize place of relevance operations

摘要

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.

主权项

1. 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 from a stationary motion state to a non-stationary motion state or from the non-stationary motion state to the stationary motion state; based on the motion state having changed from the stationary motion state to the non-stationary motion state, triggering the mobile device to reduce a rate of scanning for available local wireless networks; and identifying a PoR based on the scanning.
