Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying a location based at least in part on identifying a wireless access point and at least one service set identifier associated with the wireless access point.

Abstract: In various embodiments, two wireless communication devices may communicate with each other using multiple protocols, by dividing the data to be communicated into multiple portions, and using each protocol to communicate different portions. The different protocols may be used simultaneously or concurrently. This multi-protocol technique may be used in several different ways to provide different types of advantages in wireless communications.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques related to reducing scanning in a cellular network. A mobile device reduces scanning of the cellular network when coverage holes are detected and/or predicted along a route traveled by or a place visited by the mobile device. A mobile device also reduces scanning of the cellular network when the mobile device is stationary. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope and meaning of the claims.

Abstract: Based upon the present location and historical usage at that location, the technologies disclosed herein select a wireless peripheral device (e.g., a printer, monitor, keyboard) for wireless connection with a portable device (e.g., a laptop computer or tablet).

Abstract: Described herein are technologies related to estimating a route being traveled by a mobile device based upon detection of an array of ambient identifiable wireless signal (IWS) sources while the device is traveling. More particularly, technologies disclosed herein predict estimated-time-of-arrival (ETA). This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques related to preventing dropped cellular phone calls through predicting the behavior of cell phones along a route traveled by a mobile device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technology related to low-power, accurate location estimation for mobile devices (such as a smartphone). More particularly, the disclosed technology facilitates estimation of a physical or “real world” location (e.g., geo-location) without relying on the conventional always-on and battery-draining approaches of Global Positioning Systems (GPSs) or some form of telemetry based upon multiple radio signals (e.g., cellular). This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Abstract: Described herein are technologies for managing lists of universal resource locators (“URLs”) for a mobile device based, at least in part, upon the determined location of the device. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Abstract: Described herein are technologies related to technologies for learning a route being traveled by a mobile device based upon 1) detection of ambient identifiable wireless signal (IWS) sources while the device is traveling the route and 2) assistance from centralized or network resource. The network assistance may, for example, provide information from other devices that has traveled the same route or part of the same route before. Consequently, the route is learned much faster than it would be otherwise. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Abstract: Described herein are technologies related to estimating location of a mobile device especially while the device is traveling a known and mapped route. That is, the described technologies estimate a user's location when they are traversing a commonly traveled route. More particularly, the described technologies are especially suited to estimating geo-location of a user. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Abstract: Described herein are technologies related to estimating a route being traveled by a mobile device based upon detection of an array of ambient identifiable wireless signal (IWS) sources while the device is traveling. Route estimation also includes destination prediction. The ambient IWS sources are part of topography of such IWS sources that are located within reception range along a route being traveled or have been previously detected along a route that was traveled. This Abstract is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying a location based at least in part on identifying a wireless access point and at least one service set identifier associated with the wireless access point.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed involving communications between source and destination devices. Such communications may involve multiple cooperating devices that retransmit (e.g., simultaneously retransmit) transmissions sent by a source device. Thus, the delivery of transmissions from source devices to destination devices may involve two or more “hops” (e.g., a first “hop” comprising an initial transmission, and a second “hop” comprising two or more relay transmissions).

Abstract: Embodiments of a base station and method for reducing asynchronous interference in a multi-tier OFDMA overlay network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a lower-tier base station is configured to adjust OFDMA frame boundaries to cause frames communicated by a higher-tier to arrive within a cyclic prefix at the lower-tier base station. The lower-tier base station may also be configured to adjust OFDMA frame boundaries to cause frames communicated by a lower-tier of the network to arrive within a cyclic prefix at a higher-tier mobile station. Accordingly, frames from one tier may arrive within the cyclic prefix of another thereby reducing asynchronous interference.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein include methods, apparatus, and system architectures for using GPS within wireless networks to assist with wireless network management including handovers and data transfers, along with navigation decisions within heterogeneous networks.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system and methods for resource management and interference mitigation techniques for relay-based networks are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is described for processing of network data packets by a network processor having cipher processing cores and authentication processing cores which operate on data within the network data packets, in order to provide a one-pass ciphering and authentication processing of the network data packets.
