Patent number: 9544785Abstract: A method collects data and subjects it to statistical analysis to detect localized events, which assists in network provisioning. Illustratively, the data employed is hourly network traffic counts that are collected at cell sites. By taking advantage of the additive property of a Poisson process, the method integrates spatial neighbor information by aggregating temporal data in various areas, and iteratively estimating the event location and the radius of event impact by examining the posterior probability based on the aggregated data.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2014Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Rong Duan, Siu-Tong Au, Heeyoung Kim, Guang-Qin Ma

Patent number: 7913483Abstract: On each draft element of a ring spinning frame, two pieces of short-staple roving from the roving bobbin enter into the draft mechanism to be drafted though a guide funnel in parallel, two pieces of filament are fed from the back of the front roller, and combine with two pieces of roving at front jaw respectively. The drafted two pieces of roving and filament are output from the front jaw and enter into the twisting triangle area to be twisted, and then are wound onto a yarn bobbin to produce yarn. Based on the relative position of the two pieces of roving and two pieces of filament, different yarns can be produced. Furthermore, multi-component yarn, such as core structure, wrapped structure, strand-like structure, can be produced on a ring spinning frame. The structure of yarn can be precisely determined. Special fiber yarn can be produced on traditional spinning frame.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2009Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: Shandong Ruyi Science & Technology GroupInventors: Yafu Qiu, Weilin Xu, Dong Qiu, Cailing Ding, Weigang Cui, Wenge Wang, Xiaolin Shen, Aiguo Yang, Baocang Li, Jianping Wang, Guang Qin
