Dynamic frequency inventory and masking
First Claim
1. A mobile computing device that facilitates wireless communications, comprising:
- a receiving component that obtains wireless device communication information comprising information relating to at least one operating frequency spectrum for at least one wireless device from the at least one wireless device through communications with the at least one wireless device; and
a reconciliation component that;
accesses available communication information defining governmental frequency spectrum transmission restrictions,selects at least one operating frequency for the at least one wireless device from the wireless device communication information based on the available communication information, and a geographic location of the mobile computing device, andsends the at least one operating frequency for the at least one wireless device to the at least one wireless device, wherein the reconciliation component prevents the wireless device from transmitting on frequencies outside of the governmental frequency spectrum transmission restrictions for the geographic location.

Abstract
A centralized wireless resource manager is leveraged to facilitate in reconciling communication conflicts between wireless devices that interact with a computing device and/or reconciling communication conflicts between a wireless device and a locale of a computing device interacting with the wireless devices. One instance allows dynamic reconciliation of a wireless device based, at least in part, on the wireless device'"'"'s hardware supported communication parameters and/or its currently utilized communication parameters and the like. Another instance provides dynamic communication adjustments based, at least in part, on a locale of a computing device. This facilitates in adjusting communication frequencies based on, at least in part, local laws and regulations and the like.

10. A method for facilitating wireless communications between a mobile computing device and a wireless device, the method comprising:
-
obtaining, at the mobile computing device, wireless device communication information from the wireless device that interfaces with the mobile computing device, through communications with the wireless device; determining a geographical location of the mobile computing device; obtaining, at the mobile computing device, communication information comprising a governmental wireless frequency spectrum transmission restriction applicable for communication of the wireless device with at least the mobile computing device at the geographical location; determining, at the mobile computing device, frequency transmission parameters for the wireless device to enforce the governmental wireless frequency spectrum transmission restriction, from the wireless device communication information, based on the governmental wireless frequency spectrum transmission restriction and the geographical location of the mobile computing device; and communicating, by the mobile computing device, to the wireless device the determined frequency transmission parameters, whereby the wireless device is restricted from transmitting on frequencies that violate the governmental wireless frequency spectrum transmission restriction. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A system comprising at least a wireless device communicating with a mobile computing device that facilitates wireless communications, the system comprising:
-
means for obtaining, at the mobile computing device, wireless device communication information from at least one wireless device, wherein the communication information comprises operating frequencies that are supported by the wireless device; means for reconciling, at the mobile computing device, the wireless device communication information with available communication information for the mobile computing device with which the wireless device is communicating, wherein the means for reconciling; obtains governmental restrictions on transmission frequencies for a geographic region in which the mobile computing device and the wireless device are currently located, wherein the available communication information includes the governmental restrictions on transmission frequencies, identifies, from the wireless device communication information, frequencies on which the wireless device can operate that do not violate the governmental restrictions on transmission frequencies, based on the governmental restrictions on transmission frequencies for the geographic region, and communicates to the wireless device allocation information including the identified frequencies on which the wireless device can operate; and means for preventing the wireless device from transmitting on transmission frequencies outside of the identified frequencies on which the wireless device can operate that do not violate the governmental restrictions on transmission frequencies for the geographic region.
