SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ENABLING OPERATIONS BASED ON DISTANCE TO AND MOTION OF REMOTE DEVICE

摘要

Various operations may be performed based on a distance-related function associated with two or more devices. For example, an association procedure for two or more devices may be based on one or more determined distances. Similarly, presence management may be based on one or more determined distances. A distance-related function may take various form including, for example, a distance between devices, two or more distances between devices, a rate of change in a relative distance between devices, relative acceleration between devices, or some combination of two or more of the these distance-related functions.

1. An apparatus for wireless communications, comprising:
a receiver configured to receive at least one signal from a remote device by way of a wireless medium; an indication generator configured to:
generate a first indication related to a distance between the apparatus and the remote device based on the at least one signal;generate a second indication related to a motion of the remote device relative to the apparatus based on the at least one signal; and a processor configured to perform an operation based on the first and second indications.
