LOCATION SENSING SYSTEM AND METHOD EMPLOYING ADAPTIVE DRIVE SIGNAL ADJUSTMENT
First Claim
1. A location sensor system, comprising:
- an untethered stylus comprising circuitry configured to receive a drive signal and transmit a stylus signal, the circuitry configured to be energized by the received drive signal and comprising frequency-sensitive circuitry; and
a location sensor comprising a controller and sensing array, the location sensor configured to generate the drive signal and receive the stylus signal, the controller configured to adjust a parameter of the drive signal that improves receptivity of the stylus signal by the location sensor.

Abstract
Systems and methods provide for adaptive drive signal adjustment to improve reception of a stylus signal at a location sensor. A location sensing system includes an untethered stylus comprising circuitry configured to receive a drive signal and transmit a stylus signal. The circuitry is configured to be energized by the received drive signal and includes frequency-sensitive circuitry. A location sensor includes a controller and a sensing array. The location sensor is configured to generate the drive signal and receive the stylus signal. The controller is configured to adjust a parameter of the drive signal that improves receptivity of the stylus signal by the location sensor.
