  • Patent number: 10717312
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a data carrier comprising an opaque layer and a method for making the data carrier. During personalization phase, the ablation of the opaque layer by laser through the data carrier allows to define a see-through portion of the data carrier carrying opaque security, said see-through portion having an improved security corresponding to opaque embossing pattern overlapping at least partially the opaque security partially destroyed. Said defined see-through portion carrying opaque security partially destroyed with opaque embossing pattern on its surface is even more difficult to reproduce by forger, even more difficult to remove, replace or exchange and easy to check.

  • Publication number: 20190394245
    Abstract: Examples pertaining to indication of user equipment (UE) voice capabilities using non-access stratum (NAS) signaling in 5th Generation (5G) mobile communications are described. A processor of an apparatus (e.g., a user equipment (UE)) transmits an indication of a voice domain preference in a 5th Generation System (5GS) to a communication entity of a 5G mobile network. The processor then receives a voice service from the 5G mobile network responsive to the transmission of the indication.

  • Patent number: 10243691
    Abstract: A communication device including various circuitry is provided. The first and second circuitry provide a first communication link to a remote device using a first access technology and a second communication link to the remote device using a second access technology, respectively. The third circuitry detects whether a video call has been handed over from the first communication link to the second communication link, or whether an OOS condition of the first or second communication link that occurred during the video call has ended. The fourth circuitry generates a first intra frame for the remote device or requests that the remote device generate a second intra frame for the communication device, when the video call has been handed over from the first communication link to the second communication link or when the OOS condition occurred during the video call has ended.

  • Patent number: 10043128
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a data carrier, especially a security document, such as an identification card, e.g. a passport or a driving license, a credit card and a bank card, the data carrier comprising authentication data comprising personalized data, and as a security feature, an array of lenticular elements being arranged to provide only from predetermined angles of view an image of at least a piece of authentication data of said authentication data. In or to make the data carrier impossible or at least very difficult to copy and forge, the array of lenticular elements is provided with a complex structure providing a further security feature.

  • Patent number: 9242502
    Abstract: The invention relates to an identification document (21) comprising a non-transparent core (6), and one or more layers of a transparent material (14) arranged on at least a back (13) or a front surface (12) of said core. In order to achieve an identification document where forgery attempts are visibly detectable, the identification document (21) has a translucent security element in a region (7) where the thickness of the non-transparent core (6) material is smaller as compared to the thickness of the non-transparent core material in other parts of said core (6).

  • Patent number: 8045542
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method, transmitting device (10) and system for providing user plane traffic during a state of inactive user plane of a connection to an access network. A sequence of successive packet headers, adapted to continue a header sequence transmitted until the start of the state of inactive user plane is generated, and respective dummy portions are added to the sequence of successive packet headers. The generated stream of data packets is then transmitted from the transmitting device (10) via the unlicensed mobile access network during the state of inactive user plane so as to obtain a continuous stream of user data irrespective of the state of inactive user plane. Thereby, user plane traffic can also be provided during states of inactive user plane of the transmitting device (10), e.g. holding states, call setup states or mute states, and real-time traffic requirements can be met.

  • Patent number: 7796651
    Abstract: This invention relates to a transmission of a media from a sending terminal to a receiving terminal. In a method for sending media from a sending terminal to a receiving terminal, at least part of the media is transmitted to the receiving terminal as a sequence of data packets and stored in the sending terminal, so that as a response to received data packets, notifications are returned from the receiving terminal, whereupon according to the notifications a presentation of the stored transmitted media is formed in the sending terminal. The invention relates also to a system, to a device, and to a computer program product.
