A system for monetizing deployment of building management software configured to operate an HVAC device includes one or more processors coupled to non-transitory memory. The one or more processors are configured to create a service task for a field technician including information identifying the building management software to be installed on an end device. The one or more processors are further configured to generate a unique product key and attach the unique product key to the service task, transmit the service task to a field technician platform configured to be accessed by the field technician, validate bound data received from the field technician platform, the bound data comprising end device fingerprint information and the unique product key. The one or more processors are further configured to generate a license file configured to complete installation of the building management software.

Techniques to manage a mobile device based on network density are described. An apparatus may comprise a mobile computing device having a radio module operative to receive radio signals, a resource detector operative to collect a sample for one or more wireless resources based on the received radio signals, a network density module operative to estimate a network density for an operating environment of the mobile computing device based on the sample and a probability density function, and a parameter management module operative to manage one or more operational parameters of the mobile computing device based on the estimated network density. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Techniques to manage a mobile device based on network density

Techniques to control shared antenna architectures for multiple co-located radio modules are disclosed. The shared antenna architecture may include a combiner and at least one bypass switch for enabling simultaneous operations or mutually-exclusive operations of multiple transceivers. Dynamic gain control is employed to accommodate different front-end losses associated with a variety of signal paths that are achievable using the switch and combiner. Such dynamic gain control can include selecting from multiple sets of amplifier gain values that are tailored to meet the needs of the particular applications that are active at a particular time. Gain values can be chosen based upon received gain information including characteristics including a desired path loss, an application demand, a radio module type, a path configuration, and a mode of operation. By providing dynamic selection of gain values based on application demands, range and throughput of the transceivers can be attained. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Techniques to control transmit power for a shared antenna architecture

Techniques to control a shared antenna architecture for multiple co-located radio modules is disclosed. For example, a method may comprise receiving power state information for a set of transceivers, receiving activity information for the set of transceivers, and generating control signals for simultaneous operations or mutually-exclusive operations for a shared antenna structure connecting the set of transceivers to an antenna based on the power state information and activity information. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Techniques to control a shared antenna architecture for multiple co-located radio modules

Techniques for enhanced co-existence for co-located radios are described. A mobile computing device may comprise a first radio module operative to communicate wirelessly across a first link using a first set of communications channels, a second radio module operative to communicate wirelessly across a second link using a second set of communications channels, and a coordination module operative to receive information regarding operation of the first and second radio modules, and modify a communications parameter for the first or second radio module based on the received information. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Techniques for enhanced co-existence of co-located radios

A shared antenna architecture for multiple co-located radio modules is disclosed. For example, an apparatus may include an antenna, a first transceiver to communicate wirelessly across a first link, a second transceiver to communicate wirelessly across a second link, and a shared antenna structure communicatively coupled to the first transceiver, the second transceiver and the antenna. The shared antenna structure may comprise a combiner and at least one switch arranged to allow the first transceiver and the second transceiver to share the antenna for simultaneous operations or mutually-exclusive operations. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

Shared antenna architecture for multiple co-located radio modules

A mobile computing device is described that includes one or more wireless transceivers, a data traffic monitor module operative to monitor one or more wireless communications parameters, and a power management module operative to select a power mode for the mobile computing device based on the one or more wireless communications parameters. In various embodiments, the power mode comprises an extended power save mode wherein the one or more wireless transceivers are disabled during a plurality of consecutive wireless beacon events. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
