Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a method and apparatus for wireless mobile communication devices, such as headsets or cell phones, that can connect with multiple devices in close proximity. The devices use a directional wireless antenna to enhance the formation of desired links and can include a diversity antenna for even better connectivity. The technical effect of this invention is improved wireless communication in a wide variety of applications and services, with reduced interference and improved user experience.

Problems solved by technology

As wireless systems become ubiquitous, problems arise with multiple wireless networks and devices occupying the same space.
Interference between systems becomes problematic, with reduced range and audio quality being two noticeable effects.
The use of multiple short range wireless devices providing a wide variety of applications and services presents users with the problem of selecting which devices they wish to interact with for a given application.
This becomes problematic when the user input device is very simple with little user I / O functionality.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is a Continuation of application Ser. No. 11 / 173,363 filed Jul. 1, 2005, entitled “Look and Tune Mobile Communication Device”.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]As wireless systems become ubiquitous, problems arise with multiple wireless networks and devices occupying the same space. Interference between systems becomes problematic, with reduced range and audio quality being two noticeable effects.[0003]One technique to increase the operable density of wireless devices is to utilize devices with a shorter working range. The power in these devices can be reduced to appropriate levels and the effective density can be increased. The Bluetooth standard is an example of a local area wireless network with relatively short range devices. Bluetooth is a radio-frequency protocol which allows electronic devices to connect to one another over short-range radio links. Bluetooth devices operate in the ISM (industrial, scientific, medica...
