Qualcomm aims in has developed a more battery-friendly as devices power supplies easily drains using the main phone features to to function such as WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS signals. Such effects are evident when using apps such as Google Now, Foursquare and Keep for these apps rely on locational awareness, in layman’s term, “geofencing”, to house contextually sensitive information, such as the location of friends and nearby restaurants.
To target this battery dilemma, Qualcomm has formulated LTE direct, a device-to-device discovery service. The discovery is expected to lead to better exchange of information of smartphones as well as tablets with piggybacks on LTE that can reach as far as 500 meter range.
A highlight of LTE Direct includes battery preservation which brings it to the advantage over other information transport technologies like Bluetooth. Instead of the usual constant beeping, LTE enables the devices to search and detect each other coordinately; the action gives little effect to battery life performance.
With LTE Direct, devices can hide their identity to others due to their privacy sensitivity capacity. Furthermore, LTE Direct is well applicable for applications in searching, push advertising, and loyalty services because of its better range than those of other applications, says Qualcomm.
Unfortunately, because LTE Direct is still undergoing several operating trials, the said technology will most likely not be enjoyed this year. But the promises and possible benefits it brings may lead to other discoveries and better living. Qualcomm will be introducing some notable features of LTE Direct during the developers conference on September 18-19 in San Francisco.
