Communication profiles for mobile devices based on historical characteristics
First Claim
1. A method of operating a mobile communication device, the method comprising:
- in the mobile communication device, monitoring current movement of the mobile communication device;
in the mobile communication device, identifying a projected path of the mobile communication device based on the current movement and past mobility information corresponding to past movement of the mobile communication device; and
in the mobile communication device, processing past performance information corresponding to past communication performance between the mobile communication device and a communication network on the projected path to determine communication performance along the projected path,if the communication performance at locations along the projected path does not meet a predetermined communication service quality, then disabling periodic polled communications initiated by different ones of applications of the mobile communication device;
orif the communication performance at the locations along the projected path does meet the predetermined communication service quality, then allowing the periodic polled communications initiated by the different ones of applications of the mobile communication device.

Abstract
Systems, devices, methods, and software for operating a mobile communication device are provided herein. In a first example, a method of operating a mobile communication device is provided. The method includes monitoring a current movement of the mobile communication device, identifying a projected location of the mobile communication device based the current movement and past mobility information corresponding to past movement of the mobile communication device, and processing past performance information corresponding to past communication performance between the mobile communication device and a communication network at the projected location to determine a communication profile for wireless communications with the communication network at the projected location.

7. A mobile communication device comprising:
-
a position system configured to monitor a current movement of the mobile communication device; a processing system configured to identify a projected path of the mobile communication device based on the current movement and past mobility information corresponding to past movement of the mobile communication device; and the processing system configured to process past performance information corresponding to past communication performance between the mobile communication device and a communication network on the projected path to determine a communication profile for the mobile communication device on the projected path, wherein the communication profile indicates communication performance at locations along the projected path; if the communication performance at the locations along the projected path does not meet a predetermined communication service quality, then the processing system configured to disable periodic polled communications initiated by different ones of applications of the mobile communication device;
orif the communication performance at the locations along the projected path does meet the predetermined communication service quality, then the processing system configured to allow the periodic polled communications initiated by the different ones of applications of the mobile communication device. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having program instructions stored thereon for operating a mobile communication device, that when executed by the mobile communication device, direct the mobile communication device to:
-
monitor a current movement of the mobile communication device; identify a projected path of the mobile communication device based on the current movement and past mobility information corresponding to past movement of the mobile communication device; and process past performance information corresponding to past communication performance between the mobile communication device and a communication network on the projected path to determine a communication profile for the mobile communication device on the projected path, wherein the communication profile indicates communication performance at locations along the projected path; if the communication performance at the locations along the projected path does not meet a predetermined communication service quality, then disable periodic polled communications initiated by different ones of applications of the mobile communication device;
orif the communication performance at the locations along the projected path does meet the predetermined communication service quality, then allow the periodic polled communications initiated by the different ones of applications of the mobile communication device. - View Dependent Claims (14)
