PROXIMITY SENSING DEVICE CONTROL ARCHITECTURE AND DATA COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- detecting a device within a proximity of a speaker box coupled to a data network;
filtering a data packet received from the device to determine a received signal strength associated with the device;
comparing the received signal strength to a threshold; and
determining whether an action is to be performed based on a result of the comparing the received signal strength to the threshold.

Abstract
Mobile device speaker control may include: monitoring one or more devices coupled (e.g., wired or wirelessly) with a data network, receiving one or more data packets from each of the one or more devices, filtering received data packets by evaluating a received signal strength (e.g., RSSI) of the received packets. The received packets may be ordered in a priority based on a value, and comparing the received signal strength of each of the received packets to a threshold to determine whether the one or more devices are to perform an action; and/or detecting a device within a proximity of a speaker box coupled with a data network, filtering a data packet received from the device to determine a received signal strength associated with the device, comparing the received signal strength to a threshold, and determining whether an action is to be performed based on a result of the comparing.

13. A system, comprising:
-
a memory operative to store data transmitted over a data network; and a processor operative to detect a wireless device within a proximity of a wireless speaker box that is wirelessly coupled with the data network, to filter a data packet that is wirelessly received from the wireless device to determine a received signal strength associated with the wireless device, to compare the received signal strength to a threshold, and to determine whether an action is to be performed based on a result of the comparing the received signal strength to the threshold. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
