Abstract

A computing system includes: a context module configured to determine a transfer context for invoking a state transfer between a source device and a target device; a modulation module, coupled to the context module, configured to generate a transfer modulation based on the transfer context for adjusting to a modulation scheme suited for the transfer context; and a transmission module, coupled to the modulation module, configured to send a communication packet based on the transfer modulation for detecting the source device and the target device.

Claims (37)

1. A computing system comprising:

a control unit configured to:

determine a transfer context for invoking a state transfer between a source device and a target device,

detect a transfer intent based on a communication proximity within a transfer proximity, the communication proximity calculated as a transmission time for exchanging a communication packet of a notification type between the source device and the target device based on a transmission speed of the communication packet,

determine a packet type based on the transfer context for selecting the packet type suited for detecting the source device, the target device, or a combination thereof,

generate a transfer modulation based on the packet type for adjusting to a modulation scheme suited for the transfer context, wherein the transfer modulation includes either one of a modulation frequency below a specified frequency and above the specified frequency, and wherein the modulation frequency is determined by the surrounding noise level, and

a communication interface, coupled to the control unit, configured to send a communication packet based on the transfer modulation, the transfer intent, or a combination thereof for detecting the source device and the target device.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the communication interface is configured to send instances of the communication packet with at least two different instances of the transfer modulation.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 communication interface is configured to send a reply notification, an initiation notification, a confirmation notification, or a combination thereof.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to generate the transfer modulation based on a modulation frequency, a modulation amplitude, or a combination thereof.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to generate the transfer modulation based on an urgency level of the transfer context for adjusting the modulation scheme.

6. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to generate the transfer modulation based on a reliability level of the transfer context for adjusting the modulation scheme.

7. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to generate the transfer modulation based on a sensitivity level of an object for adjusting the modulation scheme.

8. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine a transfer intent for a transfer type based on a user's behavior for invoking the state transfer.

9. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine a transfer intent based on a device state for invoking the state transfer.

10. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein the control unit is configured to determine the packet type based on the transfer proximity for selecting the packet type suited for sending the communication packet between the source device and the target device.

11. A method of operation of a computing system comprising:

determining a transfer context for invoking a state transfer between a source device and a target device;

detecting a transfer intent based on a communication proximity within a transfer proximity, the communication proximity calculated as a transmission time for exchanging a communication packet of a notification type between the source device and the target device based on a transmission speed of the communication packet,

determining a packet type based on the transfer context for selecting the packet type suited for detecting the source device, the target device, or a combination thereof;

generating a transfer modulation with a control unit based on the packet type for adjusting to a modulation scheme suited for the transfer context, wherein the transfer modulation includes either one of a modulation frequency below a specified frequency and above the specified frequency, and wherein the modulation frequency is determined by the surrounding noise level, and

15. The method as claimed in claim 11 wherein determining the packet type includes determining the packet type based on the transfer proximity for selecting the packet type suited for sending the communication packet between the source device and the target device.

16. A non-transitory computer readable medium including process for execution, the process comprising:

determining a transfer context for invoking a state transfer between a source device and a target device;

detecting a transfer intent based on a communication proximity within a transfer proximity, the communication proximity calculated as a transmission time for exchanging a communication packet of a notification type between the source device and the target device based on a transmission speed of the communication packet,
