Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing a situation- and industry-agnostic situational awareness platform, which provide a suite of data services to client applications. The platform uses geographical and/or geo-temporal data associated with various endpoint devices in combination with real-time inputs from sensors and other connected devices, such as legacy systems or data sources, to identify urgent and emergent events and determine the appropriate endpoint devices to notify, and the content of notification, based on user-defined roles of users associated with each device as compared to the nature of the event, according to user-defined rules. The platform thus provides a common operational picture of a session of devices and integrates multiple point solutions into a single platform for decision support.

Abstract: In order for more effectively supporting a Dedicated Core Network, there is provided a network system including a first node (30) that establishes secure connection with a UE (10) initially attempting to attach to a network, through a radio base station (20), and a second node (40) to which the UE (10) is redirected from the first node (30) through the radio base station (20). Upon the redirection, the first node (30) sends information on the first node (30) itself to the second node (40) through the radio base station (20). The second node (40) uses the information to retrieve security context necessary for establishing the connection with the UE (10) from the first node (30).

Abstract: A method for estimating the position of a mobile device. Initializing an Extended Kalman Filter. Moving mobile device from a first unknown position (xt1, yt1) at a first time t1 to a second unknown position (xt2, yt2) at a second time t2. Measuring distance traveled d and angle traveled ? between the first unknown position and the second unknown position. Calculating a first possible position (x1, y1) at the first time and a second possible position (x2, y2) the second time. Using the Extended Kalman Filter, a predicted first unknown position ({circumflex over (x)}, ?) is calculated at the first time. A first final value is calculated according to ?{square root over (({circumflex over (x)}?x1)2+(??y1)2)}. A second final value is calculated according to ?{square root over (({circumflex over (x)}?x2)2+(??y2)2)}. If the first final value is less than or equal to the second final value, the first possible position (x1, y1) is output. Otherwise, the second possible position (x2, y2) is output.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques described herein are directed to network based personal number blocking. In particular, the systems, devices, and techniques can be implemented in networks including user equipment (UE) associated with native numbers and alias numbers, and can include blocking native numbers or alias numbers. Further, users can access a user profile or an application via a UE to assign personal number blocking (PNB) preferences to the various native numbers and alias numbers. Indications of such PNB can be transmitted from a UE to a network device to update a user profile in a central repository or database. If a user activates another UE or otherwise associates additional native numbers or alias numbers, the PNB can be seamlessly applied to the new device or numbers.

Abstract: A computing system such as an alert originator may provide an interface through which a user (e.g., an employee of a public safety agency) may input a definition of a target area for distribution of a prospective alert. Upon receiving a target-area definition, the computing system may then request and receive a definition of an actual area in which the prospective alert would be distributed—which is composed of the coverage areas in which each participating wireless carrier networks would distribute the prospective alert. In turn, the computing system may present the user with a depiction of the actual distribution area for the prospective alert (e.g., an overlay of a geospatial shape on a map graphic), which enables the user to assess the actual distribution area and decide whether to refine the target geographic area for an alert before that alert is distributed.

Abstract: To determine a location of a client device in a wireless network having at least first and second network devices, with known locations, one of the network devices transmits a message to the other network device and the other network device responds with an acknowledgement message. A client device receives the message and the acknowledgement message as well as respective times indicating actual times at which the message and the acknowledgement message were processed by one of the first and second network devices. The client device determines its location based on the times at which it received the message and the acknowledgement message and the difference between the actual processing times. This location may be refined by determining an angle between the client device and at least one of the network devices having multiple antennas and being configured for steered beam communications.
