Abstract: Method for passively identifying an entity responsible for causing a user equipment (UE) generated uplink communication in accordance with an LTE communication standard. The method includes capturing uplink traffic associated with an LTE communication network. A Demodulation Reference Signal (DRS) group sequence number is extracted from each of a plurality of data packets in a plurality of time slots associated with the uplink traffic. The DRS group sequence numbers which have been extracted are used to determine at least one Physical Cell Identity (PCI) of, or DRS group number used by, a Base Transceiver Station (BTS) entity responsible for causing the uplink traffic.

Abstract: System for passively classifying a signal as a user equipment (UE) generated uplink communication in accordance with in an LTE communication standard includes a radio frequency receiver and a computer processor operatively coupled to the receiver. The system evaluates physical parameters of the RF signals and obtains an extracted bit sequence contained in a time slot in which a Demodulation Reference Signal (DRS) would be normally transmitted. The extracted bit sequence information is compared to a plurality of known bit sequences specified for DRS in an LTE uplink communication.

Abstract: Described is an insulated non-halogenated, heavy metal free vehicular cable comprising an inner core of a copper based metal wire having a cross sectional area of between about 0.05 mm2 and about 0.13 mm2, and an outer insulation, covering the length of the inner core, comprised of a thermoplastic polyphenylene ether composition that has no halogen or heavy metal added thereto.

Abstract: A spacecraft (102) can include a communications receiver (210) for receiving a selected list of targets (114, 116) for which desired information is to be acquired by the spacecraft (102). In addition to location data concerning the targets, the list can also include a predetermined priority value assigned to each target on the list. The list can include data acquisition targets that collectively comprise more data than can be stored on the spacecraft's onboard solid state recorder (204). One or more computer processors (206) can be also be provided onboard the spacecraft. The processor (206) can process the acquired data onboard the spacecraft to determine whether the data contains at least a predetermined portion of the desired information and can overwrite lesser priority data (316) when the solid state recorder (204) is otherwise full.
