MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202647109378 A) filed by Nokia Technologies Oy on September 11, 2026, for Device Proximity Determination.
Inventors include Barbu, Oana-Elena; and Tao, Tao.
The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.
Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to device proximity determination. In an aspect, a first device transmits, to a second device, a first configuration for transmitting at least one signal emulating at least one transmission from a fourth device. The first device further transmits, to a plurality of third devices, a second configuration for receiving the at least one signal. The first device receives, from at least one third device among the plurality of third devices, at least one measurement report based on the second configuration. The first device determines, based on the at least one measurement report, a device pair comprising the second device and a third device among the plurality of third devices. In this way, a third device (such as, a reader) proximity detection can be implemented without involvement of a fourth device (such as, an A-IoT device), and different proximity ranges can be emulated.
