Apple brought new patent applications for the registration of a document called Network access using short-range connectability. This document is submitted for registration May 1, 2012 and is already close to approval. According to Apple proposal , personal devices such as smart phones and other mobile electronics may have a cellular modem to work with Internet, but in case of detection in range of the network, as they say low-power communications, the device is automatically included in the network of low-consumption and work with the global network services as usual. As an example, LPC-networks patent is standard Bluetooth, which refers to 11 years ago.
Bluetooth standard is selected as the basic protocol for the so-called WPAN-networks - Wireless Personal Area Networks (IEEE 802.15) - in March 2002. The development of this standard, IEEE began in 1999. Yes, with connection via Bluetooth is not going smoothly. If Apple WPAN - will work with the host, Bluetooth, both with Wi-Fi - this will be great . Rejection of Wi-Fi for Internet access at short distances will save battery power. This is particularly interesting when it comes to portable computers such as glasses or watches.
