Embodiment
Following detailed is exemplary, only is used for explanation, does not limit the invention to this.Description of drawings the preferred embodiments of the present invention, it has illustrated principle of the present invention with associated description.Below in detail referring to the preferred embodiment of the present invention that provides.
Referring to Fig. 1, show and to realize radio apparatus 100 of the present invention.Shown in the block diagram of Fig. 2, radio apparatus 100 comprises antenna 202, transceiver 204, comprise the microprocessor 206 of memory, comprise power supply IC208 and analog to digital converter 211, accelerometer 210, microphone 212, loud speaker 214, vibrator 216, keyboard 218 and the display 220 of multiplexer 209.Antenna 202 is by transceiver 204 receiving and transmitting signals.These signals are sent to microprocessor 206 and handle.This microprocessor is also handled the input of keyboard 218, and output is sent to display 220.Microprocessor 206 receives input from A/D converter 211, and the latter receives aanalogvoltage from accelerometer 210, and voltage transitions is become digital form, uses for microprocessor 206.In a preferred embodiment, the output voltage of accelerometer 210 is sent to multiplexer 209, makes an A/D converter to use.Power supply IC208 is connected to microphone 212, loud speaker 214 and vibrator 216, outputs to the power of these devices in order to control.
Accelerometer 210 is the accelerometer based on 2 MEMS of analog machine (electrical micro-machine) preferably, and part number ADLX202 generally can buy from many places.Two voltages of accelerometer 210 outputs, one of each X and Y are about about middle power.Along with radio apparatus quicken (or moving)+/-X ,+/-Y, the two combination perhaps appears, then the dc voltage on two circuits increases or reduces.In the table of Fig. 5, the acceleration direction value that provides for X and Y is corresponding to the change in voltage direction of accelerometer 210 outputs.For example, increase if radio apparatus mobile caused the dc voltage of X accelerometer output voltage, then have mobilely on " X " direction, the acceleration of directions X is positive (+).If the mobile dc voltage of X accelerometer output voltage that caused of radio apparatus reduces, then have mobilely on " X " direction, the acceleration of directions X is (-) that bears.If radio apparatus does not move on directions X, then the output voltage of X accelerometer does not change, and does not have acceleration (0) on the directions X.Y accelerometer output voltage also is like this.
The remainder of circuit shown in Figure 2 can be realized by universal component well-known in the art.Because these aspects of radio apparatus are not directly related with the present invention, so no longer described in detail herein.
In the preferred embodiment that provides, microprocessor 206 monitors accelerometer output voltage X and Y, realizes according to different input method of the present invention.Be different from the known device of accelerometer as input method, microprocessor 206 of the present invention only monitors acceleration change.In the method, do not need to know the absolute or relative position of phone, do not need to know the present speed of phone yet.Therefore, do not need acceleration is carried out integration.
Relate to following steps by action to the preferred embodiment of the method for radio apparatus 100 input informations: be the radio apparatus function, for example shut down, start, speed dialling, scrolling memory or the like, the required movement pattern.In case distribution has also been stored pattern in memory, the user just can be with specific preassigned pattern action phone 100, and phone 100 will be finished the function of appointment automatically.In possibility, radio apparatus 100 has just been stored pattern in process of production in advance, these patterns corresponding to or be assigned to specific function.Before the pattern of using storage was finished function, the user at first entered the pattern generate pattern.In a preferred embodiment, the user enters this pattern by 102 (Fig. 1) that press ﹠ hold.If pinned button 102, when user action phone 100, microprocessor 206 monitors X and Y accelerometer, thereby generates pattern.In case discharged button 102, show that pattern finishes, this pattern is compared with the pattern in being stored in memory.If there is coupling, then microprocessor 206 instruction phones 100 are finished the function corresponding to this memory module.
By above-mentioned principle, can also the usage operation pattern in radio apparatus 100, generate alphanumeric character.For example, in case pattern is imported phone, be assigned to certain alphanumeric character and be stored in the memory, then the user can move phone 100 with preassigned pattern, generates corresponding alphanumeric character.
Action can also after the section interphone does not move at the fixed time, notify the user to receive certain incident as the input of radio apparatus 100.For example, receive message if having the radio apparatus 100 of Short Message Service function, microprocessor 206 is determined do not detecting X or Y acceleration in the message sink predetermined amount of time, when receiving the indication that this phone moved, microprocessor 206 can send a message to loud speaker 214 or vibrator 216, gives the user with this message informing.This notice can be provided by microprocessor cycle, obtains confirming until short message.This informing function is particularly useful for such clam shell phone, and this phone is hidden display usually in time spent.If this function not, the user need open clam shell and watch whether receiving message.
The flowchart text of Fig. 3 pattern is assigned to multinomial function, and it is stored in method in the memory.In frame 300, microprocessor detects the user and selects to enter the pattern assignment mode.In frame 302, all functions that microprocessor display user can the required movement pattern.After the user had selected function, microprocessor detected user's selection in frame 304.When the user action phone, determine pattern, microprocessor monitors the action (acceleration) of phone in frame 306, preferably to the symbol (frame 308) of user's demonstration corresponding to this action.In frame 310, when microprocessor finishes if detecting pattern, in frame 312 pattern is stored in the memory.
The flowchart text of Fig. 4 microprocessor software how to explain the preferred embodiment of method of the acceleration of phone.At first, microprocessor detects the user and enters into pattern generate pattern (frame 400).In a preferred embodiment, this realizes by the button that the user pins on the radio apparatus.Then, in frame 402, on behalf of phone variable n of acceleration times on same direction, microprocessor will be initialized as 0.Microprocessor reads X and Y acceleration figure (frame 404) from A/D converter.If acceleration figure is not more than certain threshold value, processor determines whether this user still is in pattern generate pattern (decision box 408).If then microprocessor time-delay a period of time (frame 410), repeat from the processing of frame 404 beginnings.If the user no longer is in the pattern generate pattern, then the fixed-action pttern of action in the microprocessor comparison buffer and association (frame 412) determines whether buffer mode mates the fixed-action pttern of any association (frame 414).If, then carry out the function (frame 416) that is associated with pattern, this method finishes (frame 428).If not, then this method finishes (frame 428).
Later referring to judgement frame 406, if acceleration figure, shows that acceleration is actual greater than this threshold value and take place that then microprocessor uses X in the question blank of Fig. 5 and/or Y acceleration to judge what action (frame 417) has taken place.Then, in judgement frame 418, this method whether determine to quicken with nearest acceleration in same direction.If then microprocessor incremental variable n proceeds to aforementioned judgement frame 408.If not, then microprocessor determines that this time acceleration is whether at the rightabout (frame 420) of nearest acceleration.If microprocessor decrement value n (frame 422) then, the variable revised of determining to lag behind are less than or equal 0 (judgement frame 424).(hysteresis can detect and the reverse and action of division operation stops, and does not determine speed and do not need that acceleration is carried out integration.) if not, enforcement of judgment execute a judgement frame 408.If, then showing the reverse of phone direction of action, microprocessor adds action in the action buffer, with variable n zero clearing (frame 426), enforcement of judgment execute a judgement frame 408.
Turn one's head referring to judgement frame 420, if quicken the opposite direction of no longer nearest acceleration, then microprocessor determines whether the action buffer expires (judgement frame 423).If, the action of then having stored maximum quantity, this method proceeds to judgement frame 408.If not, then in the action buffer, add action (acceleration), with variable n zero clearing.
The example how flow chart shown in Figure 4 is used to open radio apparatus 100 is described below.In this example, " Z " pattern is corresponding to " start " function of storing in the memory.(following will the explanation, move in the question blank of Fig. 51,6,1 defined " Z " pattern).In frame 400, microprocessor detects the user and has entered the pattern generate pattern.Then, in frame 402, microprocessor will speed up number of times and is initialized as 0.After the user quickened phone, corresponding to first action " 1 " of " Z " pattern, microprocessor read X and Y value from accelerometer 210 (by MUX 209 and A/D converter 211).Then, whether microprocessor 206 determines this time acceleration greater than certain predetermined threshold, guarantees the actual generation of quickening (judgement frame 406).If quicken greater than threshold value, then this method determines that according to X and Y acceleration direction current action is the action (frame 417) corresponding to action identifier " 1 " in the question blank of Fig. 5.
Then, this method determine this time acceleration whether with the same direction of nearest acceleration (frame 418).Because this is to quicken the first time of taking place, so answer is a "No", this method proceeds to frame 420, determine this time acceleration whether with nearest acceleration (frame 420) in the other direction.Because answer is still "No",, determine whether this action buffer is full so this method proceeds to frame 423.At this moment, in the method, the action buffer less than, so this method proceeds to frame 426.In frame 426, this method will move (corresponding to action identifier " 1 ") add the action buffer, n=0 is set.Then, this method checks whether the user still is in pattern generate pattern (frame 408).If, then this method time-delay, preferably 100 milliseconds (frame 410) proceeds to frame 404 then, repeats this processing.
If the user still is arranged in the process of finishing first action, the answer of then adjudicating frame 418 is "Yes", and this method proceeds to frame 419, increment n.As long as the user finishes first action, this method remains in the circulation 403.When the user began next action of " Z " action, the answer of judgement frame 418 was "No", and this method proceeds to judgement frame 420.In frame 420, this method is determined second action of " Z " action not in first opposite direction of moving, so this method proceeds to frame 422, checks whether the action buffer is full.If the action buffer less than, then this method will " Z " second action of action be stored in and move in the buffer, with the n zero clearing, proceed to frame 408.This method resembles the front and continues describing, and until the 3rd action of having finished " Z " action, and it is stored in the action buffer.At this moment, the user withdraws from the pattern generate pattern, the action in this method comparison buffer and be stored in pattern (frame 412) in the memory.If there is coupling, then carry out the function (frame 416) that is associated with this pattern, this method finishes (frame 417).
Person of skill in the art will appreciate that, in the structure of device of the present invention and this device, can carry out multiple improvement and variation, and can not depart from scope and spirit of the present invention.
