Abstract

Methods and systems for telecommunication devices to share a network connection between a utility engine and an application. While the outgoing data of the utility engine and the application are merged over the shared network connection, incoming data is filtered via an IP data filter to route utility engine specific data to the utility engine while allowing all other data to pass through for use by the application. Numerous utilities may be supported by different forms of utility engines. Among such utilities include GPS service, where GPS related data may be received from a GPS server and utilized by applications which provide location specific information based on a location determined by the GPS server.

- The embodiment device may include one or more processors, the device: the at least one application processor and at least - the data processor processing ☆ 1 at least one data processor can support at least - the public engine Implementation. A public engine is a program or circuit/program that provides services or materials utilized by many applications. A GPS engine is an example of a public engine because the geographic location information it generates can be used by many location related programs. The application processor manages and executes many software applications: and controls the user interface. The at least one modem processor can manage the radio frequency entity resources and the lowest level radio and co-money way to or to a plurality of fixed base stations, associated networks, and network feeders. The data processor is also σ , the application programming interface ( Α 丨 用于 ) used for the interaction between the application processor and the data processor. The GPS engine can be executed on the modem processor because it has radio frequency receiver resources that can be selected and used to receive signals from one or more GPS satellites. After receiving the satellite signal, the GPS engine can send the information to a remote GPS server processing via a shared network connection. The remote GPS server processor may be able to calculate the location of the mobile device based on the poorness received from the GPS engine. Once the mobile device's I23060.doc 200813739 location is determined, the GPS server or the other network resources may also provide additional information to the rental based on the determined action location. Examples of this supplement include (but are not limited to, &) new digital maps, nearby facilities (such as restaurants, businesses and stores), local weather forecasts, entries from a single location > near Qin List, style female ^ local geographic information. This supplemental information may not be used regionally on mobile devices. Attribution, the amount of bait manipulated, the % engine on the modem processor

C can use a packet and a beacon network connection to communicate with the remote server. Compared to conventional circuit switching, the packet switched data network initiates a modified poor material transfer rate. Fengbaishan No. 1 Baofu tribute network connection can be used on 2G and 3G mobile telecommunication devices. For example, a Global Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) device is a 3G device that is a packet switching device. A packet data protocol (PDP, for example, ^^丽(4) content is a data structure existing on a UMTS device, which contains the user when the user has an activity 曰J (the period of interaction between the heart and the system) Date Bellow. When a mobile device wants to use umts, it must be attached first and then start-network set-up (four) medical k F〇fiie). This network profile can be (but is not limited to) PDp intrinsic. This configures a network configuration slot in the Servo GPRS Serving Node (SGSN) that the user is currently accessing and the gateway sigh 8 service node ((5)(10)) of the Serving User Access Point. UMTS allows multiple network profile support. Therefore, multiple network connections can be maintained by UMTS to support multiple applications. However, in a UMTS service with multi-package data protocol (PDP) content support, a public service (such as a Gps service) may be available on a network profile of only 123060.doc 200813739. The GPS engine on the data branch can be configured and has a special network profile associated with the GPS server. In the example of the support-public engine (for example, the GPS engine), the semaphore profile has been used by another application, the public quotation north (1) engine τ is deducted from the "data network" The connection is connected to a shared data network that is executed by the application on the σσ. The public engine itself, the colony _ ^ m, or another software module can be selected for sharing. Data network technology, _,, migrating. Since only one IP address is assigned to the subscription device during pDp startup from a given domain, it is attempting to support the network and multiple processors. There may be a delivery issue when there is a simultaneous transfer between multiple applications. To address this delivery issue, an embodiment may include - for the purpose of public engine specific information and application specific information The transferred IP (4) selection mechanism. In addition, the embodiment may provide an application interface to share location information among the applications. A plurality of public engines may be used by a mobile device including, for example, a GPS engine. For the sake of simplicity, the _Gps engine is first described to describe the organization and functions of various embodiments, because the Gps service is used by many applications and requires an external data source (ie, a Gps server). H of the public service of the road connection Next, an embodiment of a mobile device having one or more general public engines is described with reference to Figures 7 to 9. In a multi-mode mobile device (such as a cellular phone, mobile phone or laptop data) There may be several available networks and several packet data network connections for data transmission and reception. In addition, multi-mode mobile devices may be able to access multiple wireless technologies (eg, ΐχ, EvD〇, UMTS) , WLAN & wiFi) multiple wireless networks and multiple ιρ networks (example 123060.doc 10 200813739 such as 'IPV4' IPv6p Although UMTS networks can support connectivity to multiple domains simultaneously, such data networks Only one data network connection in the road connection can support the -GPS service. In the case of multiple data network connections, the multi-mode mobile device can identify a support (10) service via the network. The network & connection. Once the data connection is identified, the data network connection can be assigned to the GPS engine for receiving GPS services. ' However, the data network connection for GPS services can also be other GPS and non-GPS service applications provide remote services (such as Internet connectivity). Specifically, it may be necessary to share a support Gps service between an application executing in a multi-mode device and a GPS engine. Data network connection. The application does not need to be a GPS application. The only relationship between the GPS engine and the application sharing the data network connection is that both need to access the same data network connection at substantially the same time. A connection manager can be used by mobile devices to configure a limited number of possible data network connections and manage the sharing of a data network connection. Ο Specific and in a UMTS environment with multiple PDP support, the mobile device can make multiple network profiles active at the same time. A network profile (which can include the IP address of the GPS service) can be required for the (}] 8 engine. The network settings His parameters can include the network profile number, the Apn name, the pdp type, the Ip - network Family (v4*v6), and type of technology (eg, CDMA/EV-DO, GSM/GPRS, UMTS, WLAN, etc.). For certain computers such as PDAs, smart phones, and embedded in laptops For some types of devices (ie, form factor), the parameter settings can be configured on the application processing απ and all packet data 123060.doc 200813739 connections can be configured by the application processor. The parameter settings can be configured by the modem processor (such as in a single-cell cellular phone or a cellular phone that acts as a modem for a laptop-type laptop). Also, an application (not necessarily related to GPS) may need to access the same data network connection associated with the GPS engine's network profile. That is, the application and the GPS engine need to share the same packet data call. Figure 1 illustrates a Including a management of multiple data networks The connected application is located in a system block diagram of an embodiment of a lyon and a data processor having a GPS engine. As shown in Figure 1, the mobile device can include - or multiple processing benefits, 200 And a GPS engine 21. In the illustrated embodiment, the row (four) 90 has at least one application processor ι and a data processor 200 〇 application processor _ can manage and execute many software applications For example, the application processor 100 can manage at least one Gps application 110, a wireless application protocol (WAP) application, an internet-network probe application, m, and a multimedia messaging service (MM). Program 119, and other software applications. The application processor can control the user interface via a display and a keypad or keyboard (not shown). +Data processor · Manages RF entity resources and lowest level Radio and Protocol Link 91. The Radio and Protocol Link 91 can provide wireless communication using one or more of the None. The Data Processor 2 (9) can also have 7 Application Programming Interface (API) 22 G is provided to the application processor _ for the application processor! 相互 and the data processor 2〇〇 mutual mutual 12360.d〇i 200813739 control and data interaction. Establish communication with the data processor 200 The wireless communication network of the link generally includes at least one fixed base station and at least one data server (not shown). The at least one data server may itself or may include a GPS server 301. Both the application processor 100 and the data processor 2 are included in an embodiment of the same integral unit, such as a smart phone or a personal data assistant (PDA). Alternatively, the application processor 1 and the data processor 200 can be located in separate units. For example, a laptop can be tied to a cellular phone that acts as a modem. In this example, the application processor 100 is located in a laptop and the data processor 2 is located in a GPS enabled cellular telephone or wireless adapter connected to the laptop. In this example alternative configuration, the link laptop and the phone/transfer area connection can be, for example, a cable, Bluetooth link, or infrared link through which the control message and data stream pass. A GPS engine 210 can be a software module executing on the data processor 2A. Alternatively, GPS engine 210 can be in the form of a hardware or firmware such as an asic wafer. The GPS engine 210 can share and utilize the radio frequency transceiver (transmitter_receiver) 23 found in the modem processor 2 to receive the wireless signal 92 from one or more of the bar satellites 400. That is, the receiver resources of the radio frequency transceiver 230 that are typically used for network communications can be time shared or temporarily co-opted for GPS satellite signal reception. This may include portions of the circuitry of the transceiver 23 (such as amplifiers or filters, memory cells, and data connections and delivery circuits) or time sharing of the central transceiver circuitry and functions (see 123060.doc 13 200813739 eg 'Temporarily change the receiving frequency and the way the signal of the transceiver 230 is decoded in order to receive the GPS satellite time signal). After receiving and decoding the GPS satellite signals from a sufficient number of satellites 400, the GPS engine 21 processes the op satellite signals into a form of digital data to be transmitted via a TCP/IP or similar communication stack 240. The processed digital data signal can then be transmitted to a GPS server 3〇1 via the wireless transceiver network via the wireless communication network. (}1>8 servo is, 301 can further process the GpS satellite signal received from the GPS engine 21〇 to determine the position coordinates of the mobile device 90 and/or additional supplementary location information. Then via the wireless communication network 3〇 The location data determined by the Gps server 3.1 is transmitted back to the GPS engine 21. The location relative information may otherwise not be used regionally on the mobile device 9. The information provided by the GPS server 301 (eg ) identifiable location of the mobile device relative to the street address, city, county, region, or other political area. Because the modem processor 200 located within the mobile device may lack sufficient hardware to perform non-conforming, time-consuming, and highly accurate Degree of 3D geometric calculation, so the mobile device can

123060.doc A router connection (such as a software communication stack in a -14-200813739 UMTS environment with multiple network profiles support, GPS services may be available for only one network setting. Data processor 200 The GPS engine 2 10 can be configured with a particular network profile associated with the particular Gps server 301. This particular configuration or provisioning information may need to be passed from the GPS engine 210 to the connection manager 13〇. A direct information path to perform the action, but a fully designed packet data (PD) application interface 22 can be managed via packet data

The device 120 communicates the information in a more structured and trained software protocol. In order to support the GPS location service and other applications executing on the application processor, the GPS engine 210 may need to share one of the potentially several data network connections with the application processor. This is because only the -_ address can be assigned to the slot 90 during the start-up of the self-giving domain. Therefore, there may be a case where the data packet from the wireless communication network 3 is correctly delivered to the GPS engine 21G and correctly delivered to the shore program processor 100 - or a plurality of applications 110, 1U, 112 , ···. Some other way of 119. In order to solve this delivery problem, an embodiment may include a Gps specific: the application and the application specific information are connected via the same data network (ie, by sharing the data of the assigned IP address)>罔 连接 ) 之 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料 资料The filter 242 is a squat module that monitors the data packet, and pays attention to the data package having a specific preview or content. In the example embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1, the Win 6 Ip _ sheller selector is configured to pay special attention to the GPS related data packet and to isolate the knife from the GPS server 301. . The GPS-related format or content may include the TCP port number and the IP address 123060. (}〇c -15- 200813739 or other unique content, which identifies the data packet as originating from GPS based on the source address in the data packet. 301.

An application for network connection and heart address. By knowing in a similar manner, 'IP data filter 242 can also allow more than one of 9 devices, and the application shares the same pDP boot and network connection. And the address of the Ip.

However, the GPS application no, which starts GPS, and the fixed location (fix), can access the network resources on different networks and therefore start through different (10), and the network resources ( For example, it can be a map graphic or geographic material: see both Figures 1 and 2 to explain the operation of an exemplary embodiment. Figure 1 shows ^ an application handles crying,

GPS, a data processor, and a network of GPS 123060.doc -16· 200813739 Various interacting components of the server and the control and/or data flow paths connecting the components. The control and data paths in Figure 1 are identified by the numbering of the corresponding functional steps shown in Figure 2, which facilitates the flow of information via the control and/or data flow paths. In step 1, the packet data manager 120 requests the service from the GPS engine 210 via the packet data application programming interface (PD API) 220 in the data processor 2'. As part of this step, the packet data management 120 can obtain communication parameters from the GPS engine 210, such as the supplied network connection providing the desired GPS service, the desired interface family type, or whether the GPS fixed program session has in progress. In this manner, the packet data manager 120 can identify network connections that support GPS data. This control flow step 1 begins the management of packet switched (PS) data connections. In step 2, the user can launch an application that requires Gps location information. For example, the user can use his mobile device 9 to obtain the driving direction to the nearest golf course. Launching a GPS application 11 stored on the mobile device 9 causes a request to be sent to the packet data manager 120 to initiate a GPS location fix program session to determine the location of the mobile device. The packet data manager 11() can in turn send a signal to the packet data API 220 such that a request to determine the location of the mobile device 9 is forwarded to the GPS engine 210. If you are already at the step! In the identification of the data network connection supporting the GPS service, the packet data manager 12 can send a signal to the GPS engine 210 to the GPS engine 21. Notify the network connection to be used. In step 3, the GPS engine 21G attempts to initiate a packet exchange data call 123060.doc 200813739

call. To perform this action, GPS Inference 210 signals the Packet Profile Manager 120 to initiate the requested network interface (CDMA, UMTS, WLAN, ...). The requested interface (such as the supplied umtS PDP content) is an interface suitable for connecting the gps engine 2 10 to a GPS server 301 via a wireless communication network. The GPS engine 210 can provide the packet data manager 120 with the requested interface name, family type, and techniques for performing packet parent data exchange calls. In addition to specifying Cdma, UMTS, WLAN, etc., GPS engine 210 may also request a particular version (lpv4, 1?'''6', etc.). Especially for the 11] ^ "words" (31 ^ engine 21 〇 can provide the access point name (ApN) as a parameter of the interface request, pDp type (for example, IP, X.25, FrameRelay), the required service quality ( Q〇s), etc. You can use these parameters to completely establish a poor network connection to the one-to-one 7-bit service. ----~ Gongyin Shimu X buried device 13 0 to = Find the starting ^Package (PS) f material call. In step 3, you can use the parameters for the data call from (4) and pass the parameters to the caller: Reason: 3°: or 'Net The route provider can provide internal data such as 'APN name, PDP type, IP family, etc. In response, the connection management H13G is based on the packet data management (3) provided: to guide the data processor 2〇 Call the appropriate available interface.

These parameters can be used as the location of the mobile device. Changing in the network. In step 6, once the appropriate network interface 9 is active via the RF transceiver unit 23G, the connection manager 13 queries the wireless communication network for the final interface parameters. And transmitting the information (ApN, device π address, call type) back to the packet data manager 12. In step 7, the packet data manager 12 notifies the GPS engine 210 of the packet exchange via the packet data (4). The data call is successfully opened. The packet data manager 120 then proceeds to the (4) engine 2 via the packet data to perform the necessary network information for the GPS engine 2 to access the Gps server 3 g. The network information of the GPS engine 21G may include the connection request information generated in step 3 above. This information may include interface name/technology (CDMA, UMTS, WLAN, etc.), interface family (ιρν4, IPV6, etc.) Etc. 'and interface specific information (for UMTS, the name is PDP 4, Q〇s, domain name, services supported by the domain, etc.). Additionally, network information may include assignments for Data call duration Interface IP address. In step 8, the GPS engine 210 uniquely identifies the network interface generated using the network information from the packet data manager 120 of the application processor 1 using the provided network interface parameters. The GPS engine 210 is coupled to the network interface for transmitting and receiving data for the gpS location fix program via the TCP/IP communication stack 240 and the IP data filter 242. In step 9, the IP data is used. The filter 242 and the TCP/IP communication stack 240 automatically capture network GPS information from the 1P data service. That is, the GPS-related received data traffic is removed or screened by the IP data filter 242 123060.doc -19- 200813739 and sent to the milk engine 21G. Specifically, each incoming data packet of the particular (four) related form is expected to be diverted to the GPS engine via the communication stack 24〇. Any other data packets received on the same network connection are not delivered via the communication stack 24G, but are instead delivered to the application processor (10), such as via the -PPP interface 245. This delivery can occur transparently to the user. Combine any data transmitted by the GPS engine 21〇 with the data transmitted via the same network and processed by G.

staggered. In step 10, an application using the GPS service determines if another GPS location fix is required. If necessary, repeat step 9 and step 丨^ for an indefinite number of times. In step 11, if the GPS location fix is no longer needed, the application 110 notifies the packet profile manager 120 to suspend the session with the GPS server. Alternatively, the packet data manager 120 can detect that the GPS application 110 has not requested the GPS location fix program for a period of time. This timeout period may be necessary in mobile devices where the application may never be explicitly terminated by the user. In either case, the packet data manager unaware to the connection manager 130 that the packet exchange data call is no longer shared with the GPS engine 21A. The right is no longer shared with the application by the parent, and the call is terminated. If the packet exchange data call is used by an application, the call is terminated without the connection management state 130, and the operation of the application processor 1 (9) continues as normal. In step 12, the packet data API notifies the GPS engine that the packet exchange data call has been terminated and terminates the IP data filter 242 because there is no further need to filter out the GPS related data. Figure 1 shows the interconnection between the application processing crying and the modem processor 200 at the point-to-point protocol (PPP) hierarchy 245. It should be noted that although the interconnects 140, 245 are depicted as PPP, it is not intended to limit such interconnections to PPP. The processors 100, 200 can also be directly interconnected at the IP level via an Ethernet or any other link layer interface or proprietary interface. The GPS engine 210 can also communicate with a GPS application 11 at a higher level, such as at the F-layer or at the open system interconnect (the higher level of the Ds-D architecture). Figure 3A illustrates an embodiment with at least one additional GPS application. Figure 3A shows the implementation of the same application processor on the computer = = GPS application 11〇, 115, which can be used in the old sleeve / a scholar There are even more GPS applications that are executed on the same application processor 100 (not shown or, if there are more than one application processor, the various GPS applications no, 115 can be executed in one The above application processor. In the embodiment shown in the figure, two application processors are included. For example, the mobile device may contain a "dual core" or even a "quad core" processor. The wafer D-processing chip itself contains two or more processing units. As shown in FIG. 3A, in contrast to the single network connection as shown in the embodiment, the alternative embodiment is lpf (four) Μ可可-check Packets on more than one network connection. This configuration allows one or more network connections to be shared at a time. Referring to Figures 3A and 3B, an embodiment may include a Gps interface 121, such that the GPS interface m is multiple The GPS application 11〇, 115, 61〇 share 123060.doc 200813739 GPS location information from the GPS engine 210. The shared GpS interface 121 can simply be an extension of the packet data manager 120. For example, the first GPS An application (such as the application 110 of FIG. 3A or FIG. 3B) can establish a Gps location fix program session as described above in connection with FIG. 2, steps 1 through 8. Next, other GPS applications 115, 6 10 can The available location information is accessed via a call to the shared gpS interface m as shown in Figures 3A and 3B, respectively, since an application, such as the Gps application 110, begins via the packet data manager 12 GPS service (as in step 2 of Figure 2) 'so it may be appropriate to extend the packet data manager ι2〇 to have a shared GPS interface 121 (as shown in Figures 3A and 3B). The shared GPS interface 121 can be rendered A managed, high-level, shareable virtual GPS resource that hides how GPS is implemented. In other words, the interface will be the same as in the presence of a fully self-standing GPS processor. In other exemplary embodiments, multiple GPSs The application can be executed simultaneously. In these examples, a packet exchange data call for the GPS engine 2 may already be active. This may be because when another GPS application 115 or 610 requests GPS service, A GPS application 11 has facilitated the connection. In this case, when requesting another GPS service, the packet data manager 120 (or more specifically, the shared Gps interface 121) can simply return a successful status to a GPS application 115 or 610. 5, together with FIGS. 3A, 3B, 4A, and 4B, illustrate a sequence of steps of an alternative embodiment that can initiate and manage a shared packet data connection to the network and support two or more GPSs. application. In step 5i, the shared GPS interface 121 requests service from the GPS engine 210 via the packet 123060.doc-22-200813739 data application programming interface (PD API) 22(4) in the modem processor. The shared (^; § public 〇 11 / 丄 1 ^ hi face 121 can obtain communication parameters from the GPS engine 21 经由 via the PD manager 120 and the PD API 22 。.

The program requires the Gps bit of the mobile device 9 [by launching the _GW application lio, sending a request to the shared Gps interface ΐ 2ι to initiate a GPS location fix program session to determine the mobile device 9 〇 The location. The packet data manager 丨20 may in turn send a signal to the packet data ap! 220 such that the request to determine the location of the mobile device 9 is forwarded to the GPS engine 210. In step 53, the GPS engine 210 requests the start A packet exchange data call. In order to perform this action, the GPS engine 210 signals the shared interface 121 to initiate the requested interface (cdma, umts, WLAN, . . . ).

In step 55, the reverse connection by Meng & state 130 based on the processing in step 54 by the shared GPS interface 121 is provided; n-k-Fo OilPainting optional pose number via the RF transceiver tea

(Transmission to - Receiver) 23〇 to start the Fittest A 7-week Tianzhi available poor feed network connection. ♦ ^ · w field negative network connection is initiated by the modem processor 200 based on the number of parameters provided by the GPS interface 121 shared by the gate in step 54. The parameters provided by the shared Gps interface 121 may be different each time a data call is initiated. These parameters may vary depending on the location of the mobile device 90 and the available network. In step 506, once the appropriate network interface connection 91 is active via the RF transceiver, the connection manager 13 queries the wireless communication network for the final interface parameters. And this information (ApN, device p address, call type) is transmitted back to the shared GPS interface 121. In step 57, the shared GPS interface 121 notifies the GPS engine 210 via the packet data API 220 that the packet exchange material call was successfully opened. The shared GPS interface 121 then provides the GPS engine 210 with the necessary data network connection information for the GPS engine 21 to access the GPS server 3〇1 via the packet data API 22〇. The data network connection information for the GPS engine 2 may include the connection request information generated in step 53 above. This connection request information may include interface name/technology (CDma, UMTS, 123060.doc -24-200813739 WLAN ', etc.), interface family (ΙΡν4, Ιρν6, etc.), and interface specific information (for UMTS, APN name, pDp type, q〇s, 'domain name, service supported by the domain, etc.) β Additionally, data network connection information may include assignments for data. It is called the interface of the meeting period ^ address. Ο In step 58, 'the GPS engine 210 uniquely identifies the network interface generated using the network information of the commonly used GPS interface 121 from the application processor using the network interface parameters described above in step 57. . The GPS engine 210 is coupled to the network interface for transmitting and receiving for the coffee location fix program W via the Tcp (10) communication stack 240. Filter 242 is configured to filter a particular form of data packet via communication stack 24 and to deliver it and all other data packets to a particular communication stack 14 that shares the network connected application. In V59, the data filter 242 of the Tcp/Ip communication stack is used to automatically retrieve network information from the IP beacon. That is, the gm related received data message is removed or filtered by the Ip data filter 242 and sent to the GPS engine 21〇. In particular, each incoming data packet of a particular form is expected to be routed to gps engine 10 via communication stack 240 and not forwarded to application processor (10). Any other data packets received on the same data network = are not transferred via the communication stack, such as via a PPP interface 245 to the application processor 1 〇 0 °. It occurs transparently to the user. Any material transmitted by the GPS engine 210 is combined or interleaved with data transmitted from the application (4) processor (10) via the same data network connection. In step 52A, the application 610 of the second application (1) of FIG. 38 or the figure 123060.doc 200813739 3B is executed and the GPS location fix is requested via the shared Gps interface. In response, the shared Gps interface increments s uranium to require a count of applications for the GPS location fix program. Step 52A can occur at any other time during the process and is placed as shown in Figure 5 for illustrative purposes only. Additionally, the third gps application can similarly be initiated by the user and needs to be serviced via the shared GPS interface 121 at any time. The purpose of the shared GPS interface 121 is to manage and synchronize all requests for the GPS service. The shared GPS interface 121 and the packet data Αρί 22〇 actually present a virtual shared GPS service. The shared GPS interface 121 can be implemented by the packet data manager 120. Alternatively, the shared Gps interface 121 can be implemented by adding the packet data API 220. However, positioning the Gps interface 121 in the packet data 可能 ι 22 may limit the storage of the GPS interface by the application 610. The accessibility of the Gps interface from the application 519 of FIGS. 4A and 4B is taken or restricted. In step 60, one of the currently active Gps applications 11, 115, 115 or 61 疋疋 determines whether it no longer needs the service of the shared Gps interface i2i. This may be because a particular GPS application 11〇, 115 or 61〇 has been stopped or has been inactive for a specified period of time. In this case, the count of the application using the shared GPS interface is decremented by one. If the count is not zero, the shared GPS interface 121 will continue to support other Gps applications that currently require a GPS location fix, and proceed to step 59. If the count of the active GPS application (as decremented by the shared Gps interface i2i 123060.doc -26-200813739) is zero, then step 61 can be performed. In step 61, the shared GPS interface 121 notifies the connection manager 13 that it is no longer necessary to share the packet exchange data call with the GPS engine 210. If no other application currently shares the packet exchange data with the GPS engine 210, the connection manager 13 terminates the name data call. In either case, the shared Gps interface 12 1 notifies the packet data 步骤ρι in step 62 to stop the Gps fixed program session. Step 62 may include deactivating the IP data filter 242 in the communication stack 24, as there may be no more Gps related data packets to be screened out. 4A and 4B illustrate additional alternative embodiments. In addition to the application processing state 100, there may be at least one external processor 5 such as a laptop or PDA. The external processor 5 can be linked to the multiprocessor mobile device 9 by means of an electronic mirror or a wireless button (4) or 94 (such as 'Ethernet, _, Firewire, Bluetooth or some proprietary technology). In the embodiment illustrated in Figure 4a, a dedicated pass link transceiver 540 is included on any end of the communication link 93. In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 4B, the existing communication stack 140 is included in the application processor_ for communication protocol stack 54 communication with the external processor 500 via the channel 94. For the purpose of illustration, Figures 4A and 4B simply show one (10) application. Autumn, like the application processor, can be executed on the external processor 5: multiple (10) applications. The external processor 5 can be at least as complex as the application processor. The external processor 5 can also include additional software components, such as the exhibition + field, and the assembly is not used for the application processor.彳罕人 Figures 4A and 4B show different types of communication between external processor _ and application processor 1 〇〇 123060.doc -27- 200813739. In addition, FIG. 4A shows the flow of data between the control stream 2 and the GPS application 510 and the shared gps interface 121. A Gps application 510 executing in the external processor 500 can be connected by a communication link

540 and communication channel 93 request GPS service from the shared gps interface 121. For example, this configuration can be used if the communication driver 540 uses a non-TCP/IP protocol such as 'Bluetooth or USB. Figure 4B shows the control flow 2 and the TCP/IP communication stack 140 and 540. This configuration can be used if the communication channel 94 uses a standard TCP/IP network protocol. In this case, the packet The physical manager 120 to the connection manager 130 must establish a zone connection, such as an icpi/ipi/pppi connection 14 to the external processor 5 (8). The GPS application 51 then uses this connection to send requests and data to The shared Gps interface 121 or receiving requests and data. It is assumed that the GPS application 510 is a GPS-related application to show how it relates to the various software components U of the GPS engine 210 and the application processor 1. In addition to <31 The steps performed by the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 4A and 4B may be the same as the steps in FIG. 5, except for the control and data path changes between the application 510 and the shared GPS interface 121. Steps to set up a GPS engine for sharing a packet exchange data call with an application that has been connected to a network by a packet exchange data call. The embodiments of Figures 4A and 4B can be specifically It is necessary to configure the communication channel 93 or 94 between the application processor 100 and the external processor 5A. This is performed in step 51 of Figure 5. Figure 6 illustrates another embodiment in which the Gps engine 21 is excluded. In addition, data 123060.doc -28- 200813739 machine processor 200 can execute at least one utility engine 25. Figure 6 shows a gps engine 210 that manages control and/or data flow to additional public engine 250. An additional public engine 250 There may be its own TCp/Ip/filter stack 260. In particular, a common engine 25 may be capable of filtering out - or injecting into a ppp stream data packet specific to the public engine 250, similar to GPS. The engine IP data filter 242 delivers GPS specific data packets. Instead of the PPP protocol, a different protocol (not shown) can be implemented on the link layer of the communication stack 240 and/or 260 because both CDMA and UMTS are also Support for direct transmission of data packets via a network data connection. Other configurations, interconnections or numbers of GPS and public engines are possible. For example, in Figure 7, GPS engine 210 and utility engine 250 have individual communication stacks. Stack, but share a single composite filter. In the case of a composite filter, Lu's can feed the data retrieved from the data packet flow for the appropriate destination', meaning that each processor and TCP of the GPS engine 210 /IP stacking, public engine 250, or another application sharing the data connection in the application processor 1. Figure 8 is an action that does not have the 8 engine executed on the data processor 2 A block diagram of another embodiment of device 90. In place of the gps engine, there is at least one non-common 8 public engine 250 (25 1) that may need to access a communication stack 26 〇 (261) via a communication stack 26 25 (261) Internet connection. Like the GPS engine, the non-GPS public engine 250 (25 1) may need to share one or more active data network connections with an application program 16 or 11 8 executing on at least one application processor 100. The reason for sharing a data network connection can be as described above. That is, only one 1p address can be assigned to the device during the pDp initiation of 123060.doc -29-200813739 from a given domain. However, it may be necessary to use the common feeder 3G2 to - The application is out of (1) with A while using the engine 260 while transferring the lean material. / It may also be necessary to transfer data in the opposite direction via a shared network connection. A is shared with the application 116 or 118 - the data network connection, the public engine 250 or 251: using the "four" material filter to monitor the packet data via the shared connection π spear force ° IP poor material (four) device 27 〇 based on specific The expected address, format or content to identify the data packets associated with the public engine. For example, the lpf filter is configured to take care of the associated beacon packet and separate it from the common server 302 based on the source address in the data packet. The public correlation may or may include a TCP or UDP coded IP address or other unique content: it identifies the data packet as originating from the public server 302. The IP profiler 270 delivers the identified public profile M data # package to the public engine 250 or 251 (all data packets are associated with the public engine) and delivers all other data packets to the shared data network connection. Application. Alternatively, as in the case of Figure 6, each public engine 25 or 25 may have its own independent IP data filter. Referring to Figures 8 and 9, a sequence of steps for an alternate embodiment is illustrated in conjunction with a system for performing the method steps. In step 71, the packet data manager 120 registers its presence with the connection sharing manager 29 via the packet data application interface (PD API) 220 in the data processor 2a. The packet data manager 120 can obtain communication parameters from the connection sharing manager 29 via the packet data manager 12〇&pD Αρι 220. Such communication parameters may refer to the provisioned data network connection to the public related server 3〇2 123060.doc -30- 200813739 required by the public engine 250, 25 1 for the purpose of the public engine 250, 251 It is the official data sharing network connection. It is provided to the packet data manager 12: the number can include the desired interface family type, or whether the public service is already in progress. This control flow step 71 begins the management of the packet switched data connection. In step 72, the user can launch an application ιι6 that requires service from the A-use engine 250, 251. The request is sent to the packet data manager 120 by the launch-application (6) to initiate the service from a public engine 250 '251. The packet data manager 12 can send a signal to the packet data 〇ρι 22〇, so that the public service request is forwarded to the connection sharing processor 29G, and the connection sharing manager can forward the request to a request. The utility engine 250, 251. If an application on X can request a spear from a particular public engine, the PD processor 120 or the connection manager 290 can maintain the application required for each of the services of the public, 25G, 251. The U count of the number of programs. In step 73, the connection sharing manager 290 requests a packet exchange data call. In order to do this, the connection sharing manager 290 signals the packet data manager 120 to initiate the requested interface (cdma, 'UMTS, WLAN, ...). The requested interface (such as the supplied UMTS PDP content) is the interface that will connect the appropriate public engine 250, 251 to the public server 3〇2 via the wireless communication network. The connection sharing manager 290 can provide the packet data manager 12 with the requested interface name, family type, and techniques for performing packet exchange data calls. In addition to 123060.doc -31 - 200813739 specifying CDMA, UlVn^, WLAN, etc., connection sharing management 290 may also request, for example, _ ° 'Special 1P version (IPv4, IPv6, etc.). Youzi; UMTSff" 5, Connection Sharing Manager 29 provided as interface please::, parameter APN name, PDp type, required service quality ((10)), temple, etc. I, picker' in step 74, packet data The manager (3) picks up the manager 130 and asks for the ash & a mourning to initiate a packet exchange data call. It can be entered using a combination of the parameters obtained in step 723 from the connection sharing its σ 卜 &

Next, in step 75 Φ , 击 & » ^ ,, the connection manager 130 is based on the number of teas provided by the PD management 12 in the step 74, and the number of teas is selected via the RF transceiver ( Transmitter_Receiver 230 to start the appropriate interface for the appropriate ^T, J, and & 贫 贫 〆 〆 〆 〆 〆 〆 〆 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据 数据Start with the parameters provided by 120. By the package _ 八 > number in the mother:: person may start a data call may be different. These parameters can vary depending on the available network. In step 76, a 曰σσ__ 适田-before network connection 91 is active via the RF transceiver unit 203, pulling it away. The g state 130 is then queried for the final interface parameter to query the wireless communication network 3 " and the poor message (APN, device IP address, beer type) is passed back to the packet data manager 120. In step 77, the packet data manager 120 notifies the packet exchange material call via the packet data API 22 that the connection exchange manager 290 is successfully =. The packet data manager 12Q then provides the necessary network information to the public server through the package information Api22〇 to the engine 2 5 〇, 2 5 1 and the i car to the 妓田々々次. 302. The network for connecting to the sharing manager 29060.doc -32- 200813739 The road information may include the connection request information generated in step 73 above. The connection requesting the information may include the interface name/technology ( CDma, UMTS, WLAN, etc.), interface family (Ipv4, ιρν6, etc.), and interface specials (for UMTS, APN name, pDp type, Q〇s, domain name, domain name) Supported services, etc.) In addition, the network information may include an interface that is assigned for the data call session.

In step 78, the connection sharing manager 29 uses the network parameters described above in the steps to uniquely identify the network generated using the network information from the PD manager 120 of the application processor 100. The road interface = connection common processor 290 links the associated utility engine 25A, 251 to the network; the interface is used for development and reception from the public server 312 via the TCP/IP communication stack 26, 261 IP traffic. The connection manager 270 configures the data filter 270 to inspect a particular form of data packet via the communication stack 260, 261 and to deliver it and all other data packets to a particular communication stack of the application connected to the shared network connection. 14 (). In step 79, the incoming data from the public server 302 is automatically retrieved from the Ip data traffic by the Ip data filter. That is, the publicly associated received data message is removed or filtered by the Ip data filter 27 and sent to the appropriate utility engine 25(), 251, as configured by the connection sharing manager 290. Specifically, each incoming packet of the expected specific form of incoming poor packet or from the public server 3〇2 is routed to the connection sharing manager 29 via the communication stack 260 or 261. = 匕 has not been forwarded to the application processor (10). Any other data packets received on the same network connection are not delivered via the communication stack (10), 123060.doc -33 - 200813739, for example, via the interface 245 261, / I w . -Γ y...V Τ/入入Ί王王 Program processor 100. This delivery can occur transparently to the user. All data transmitted by the public engine 250 or 251 is merged or interleaved with data transmitted via the same data network and processed by the application processing crying n n w 100. At this time, in step 72A, the application program 118 can start execution and can request the public service by the PD manager 120. In response, the package data manager 12 can be transferred, and the ^9 field requires the application of the data machine public service.

The count of the program. Alternatively, step 7 2 A can be maintained at any other time during the process by connecting the sharing manager to maintain this count 2; and it is placed in Figure 9 as it is for the purpose of the month. In addition, a third: the program (if it is executed) can similarly be used by the user in the process: starting from the day and requiring service via the packet data manager 120. The purpose of the packet management urn is to manage and synchronize requests to the public service application. ...determine whether one of the currently active applications 116, 118 = need a public service again. This may be because a particular application 116, 8 has ceased to execute or has not been used for a specified duration (timeout period). * Native language mouth; or, applications 116, 118 can be explicitly managed to pD as notifications do not have two. . Or use the service. In either case, the packet data management is 12 〇 (or old, connected by the shared manager 290), and the number of applications that provide the engine 25 0, 251 that does not require the service of the eve service is counted. If the count is not zero, the JJK, J匕Baker Manager 120 will continue to support the currently required service. His application m < has eight' so the process continues at step 79. If the usage of the _1, the active application of the public engine 250, 251 is 123060.doc -34- 200813739 (if the packet data camp 81 is decremented) is zero, then #81 can be connected. In step 81, the sealing process is performed. The receiver performs the step of the package. The device is not required to be connected to the connection device, and the common processor is 29.
