POWER SENSITIVE WIRELESS COMMUNICATION RADIO MANAGEMENT
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- selecting, by the wearable device, a particular wireless communication technology from a plurality of wireless communication technologies of the wearable computing device predicted to use a least amount of power to transfer an amount of data to the wearable device from another device;
determining whether the wearable device can connect to the other device using the particular wireless communication technology; and
responsive to determining that the wearable device can connect to the other device using the particular wireless communication technology, transferring, by the wearable device and using the particular wireless communication technology, the data from the other device.

Abstract
In one example, a wearable device includes one or more processors, a plurality of communication components, one or more motion sensors configured to detect motion of the wearable device and generate, based on the detected motion, motion data, and a storage device configured to store at least one module. The at least one module may be operable by the one or more processors to: responsive to determining that the wearable device is not connected to the computing device using the first communication technology, determine, based on the motion data, whether the wearable device is currently being worn, and responsive to determining that the wearable device is currently being worn, establish the wireless connection to the computing device using the second communication component.
