Embodiment Construction

[0016] Provided herein are various example techniques that may be implemented at one or more of a plurality of mobile devices to implement various processing schemes for determining position fixes for objects co-located with the plurality of mobile devices.

[0017] As may be appreciated, in some cases, a person holding or carrying a first mobile device (e.g., a smartphone) may also wear or carry a second mobile device, such as a wearable computing device and / or the like, which The second mobile device may be attachable for co-location with a specific point of the person. For example, a person may wear a smart watch on his / her wrist, may also carry a smartphone in his / her pocket or purse, etc. In certain embodiments, a wireless connection may be established between a first mobile device (e.g., a handheld communication / computing device) and one or more other mobile devices (e.g., a second mobile device, possibly in the form of a wearable computing device). A communication link...

Abstract

Various techniques are provided that may be implemented at one or more of a plurality of co-located mobile devices. For example, a first mobile device (104-1) may identify a plurality of signal acquisition tasks, transmit a request indicative of a subset of the plurality of signal acquisition tasks to be performed by a second mobile device (104-2), and receive a response to the request.

Description

[0001] Related applications [0002] This is a PCT application claiming priority to US Nonprovisional Patent Application Serial No. 14 / 475,271 filed September 2, 2014, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The subject matter disclosed herein relates to electronic devices, and more particularly, to use by and / or in a first mobile device to determine co-located information with the first mobile device and at least one other mobile device. A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture for fixing the position of an object. Background technique [0004] As the name implies, a mobile device may be moved around, eg, generally carried by, or otherwise co-located in some manner with, an object, such as a person, animal, machine, or the like. By way of some non-limiting examples, mobile devices may take the form of cellular telephones, smart phones, tablet computers, laptop computers, wearable computers, navigation and / or tracking devi...
