Utility
Fitness activity related messaging
7 Feb 23
In one embodiment, a method for generating a message to a friend of a user is provided, comprising: processing activity data of a first user measured by an activity monitoring device to update a value of an activity metric for the first user; identifying a change in an inequality relationship between the value of the activity metric for the first user and a value of the activity metric for a second user; in response to identifying the change in the inequality relationship, prompting the first user to generate a message to the second user.

Utility
State Of Health Determination Of A Battery
19 Jan 23
A computer-implemented method for improved determination of state of health (SoH) of a battery of a device can include determining that the device is in a charging state such that a charge of the battery is increased over a charge procedure; determining that a state of charge (SoC) metric of the battery reported by a battery gauge system has increased by a fixed SoC interval; determining a charge time interval over which the SoC metric of the battery has increased by the fixed SoC interval; and determining a SoH metric indicative of the SoH of the battery based at least in part on the charge time interval; wherein determining the SoH metric is based at least in part on a known relationship between a reference time interval representative of time required to increase a reference battery at full SoH by the fixed SoC interval and the charge time interval.

Utility
Automatic Rf Transmit Power Control For Over The Air Testing
19 Jan 23
A computer-implemented method for setting RF transmit power of a wireless device includes obtaining power response data for a power detector of the wireless device, the power response data providing a relationship between power detector readings from the power detector and measured transmit power of a transmitter of the wireless device; identifying a target power detector reading value corresponding to a target transmit power based at least in part on the power response data; initializing a transmitter gain of the transmitter to an initial transmitter gain value; obtaining a power detector reading value from the power detector; determining that a difference between the power detector reading value and the target power detector reading value is greater than a tolerance margin; and adjusting a transmitter gain value of the transmitter in a direction of the difference between the power detector reading value and the target power detector reading value.
