Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to acquisition and exchange of location data with an emergency call center using a private cellular network. A private cellular network includes a location engine configured to store specific location information of user equipment connected to the private cellular network via an access point; and at least one network element configured to receive a request for placing an emergency call from an endpoint communicatively coupled to the private cellular network; determine endpoint specific location information for the endpoint by communicating with the location engine of the private cellular network that identifies location of the endpoint within a confined space in which the private cellular network is deployed; and send the endpoint specific location information of the endpoint to an emergency service provider for dispatching to a location of the endpoint based at least in part on the endpoint specific location information.

Abstract: In one aspect, a network component associated with a private cellular network includes at least one memory having computer-readable instructions stored therein and one or more processors. The one or more processors are configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to receive, from a user equipment, a request to register with the private cellular network, the user equipment having a unique identifier; determine, at the network component or via cloud-based Evolved Packet Core (EPC) communicatively coupled to the network component, a home EPC associated with the user equipment using the unique identifier of the user equipment; and establish an IP Multimedia Service (IMS) Access Point Name (APN) connection between the user equipment and the home EPC associated with the user equipment, the IMS APN enabling a seamless connectivity of the user equipment to a terminal on a Private Branch Exchange (PBX) system using a native dialer of the user equipment.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a private cellular network that includes a common evolved packet core component and a router configured to receive network traffic from a plurality of endpoints communicatively coupled to the router; identify each endpoint as an endpoint registered with the private cellular network and for which the router and an associated edge evolved packet core deployed at a location, serve as a home network, or an endpoint roaming on the private cellular network at the location; and route the network traffic via an interface of the router to the edge evolved packet core for each endpoint registered with the private cellular network and for which the router and the edge evolved packet core server as the home network, or via the common evolved packet core component to a corresponding home evolved packet core of each endpoint roaming on the private cellular network.

Abstract: The invention concerns an autonomous container ship comprising a bottom, a propulsion system, a loading and unloading system for loading and unloading containers, a balancing system, characterized in that the bottom has a hull incorporating a propulsion system and the ship comprises a carrying system for transporting containers from important ports equipped with facilities for loading and unloading containers to small ports not provided with such equipment and less than 4 meters deep. The ship includes a propulsion system ensuring the ship's cruising speed on the high seas and its speed in estuaries and ports, a loading and unloading system adapted to ports not provided with appropriate equipment, and a balancing system for balancing the ship at sea providing stability and trim during container handling operations.

Abstract: A container ship includes a hull, propulsion device, support, guide disposed on the support that is extendible beyond the hull, and handler movable along the guide. Thus, the container ship enables containers to be unloaded near a variety of points of use, i.e., not only in ports that are not equipped with port handling facilities, but also onto unequipped beaches, banks, or landing slips. The container ship also unloads containers in such a manner that it has practically no effect on the equilibrium of the ship, whatever its size.

Abstract: The present invention relates in particular to an autonomous container ship of the type having a hull, propulsion means, and loading and unloading means, characterized by having ballasting means and means (11, 12, 5) for varying the air draft without changing the draft.

Abstract: The invention concerns an autonomous container ship comprising a hull, a propulsion system, loading and unloading systems for loading and unloading containers, and a balancing system. The ship transports containers from larger ports equipped with facilities for loading and unloading containers to smaller ports which may not provide such equipment and may be less than 4 meters deep. The ship includes a propulsion system to propel the ship to cruising speed on the high seas and at lower speeds in estuaries and ports, loading and unloading systems adapted to ports not provided with appropriate equipment, and a balancing system for balancing the ship at sea by providing stability and trim during container handling operations.
