Patent number: 7308269Abstract: The user of a mobile terminal capable of receiving low-power, short-range transmissions enters keywords indicative of messages the user wishes to peruse. When the mobile terminal receives a short-range transmission having a message, keywords associated with the message are compared with the user-entered keywords; if any match, a banner portion of the message is displayed on the mobile terminal and the mobile terminal issues a sensible alert. The user may request to view the message body associated with the banner portion. The user may request to take actions regarding the message body, such as storing the message body in the mobile terminal or calling a telephone number contained in the message body.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2004Date of Patent: December 11, 2007Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Timo M. Laitinen, Jarkko Lempiö, Tomi Heinonen, Mikko Rautiainen, Ari Aarnio

Patent number: 7295862Abstract: The user of a mobile terminal capable of receiving broadcast transmissions, such as Digital Video Broadcast (DVB) transmissions, enters keywords indicative of messages the user wishes to peruse. When the mobile terminal receives a broadcast transmission having a message, keywords associated with the message are compared with the user-entered keywords; if any match, at least a portion of the message is displayed on the mobile terminal. The displayed portion may be a “crawl” which appears at the bottom of the display screen. The user may request to view the remaining portions, if any, of the message, or to download data linked to the message, where the downloaded data may be for viewing or for another purpose.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2004Date of Patent: November 13, 2007Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Timo M. Laitinen, Jarkko Lempiö, Tomi Heinonen, Mikko Rautiainen, Ari Aarnio

Patent number: 7009956Abstract: The invention relates to a method of transmitting a message from a wireless radio-frequency short-range communication network (20) via a gateway (21) to a network (14, 24) external to the communication network (20). The method comprises receiving a first message (41) via a short-range radio link at the gateway from a terminal device (23) of the short-range communication network (20), the first message being addressed to an element (25, 34) external to the short-range communication network, and the first message comprising a network address of said terminal device as a transmitter's address and a first port number as a source port number, the network address of the terminal device being used inside the short-range communication network.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2001Date of Patent: March 7, 2006Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Tomi Heinonen, Antti Forstadius, Jarkko Lempiö, Mikko Rautiainen

Patent number: 6990316Abstract: An RF network with a host node and a plurality of satellite nodes for communicating data from terminal devices connected to the nodes. Each node includes a transceiver with a unique address. On start-up of the network, the transceivers send inquiries; transceivers receiving an inquiry respond by sending their unique address; the inquiry sending transceiver stores the received addresses. All transceivers store the unique addresses of “neighboring” transceivers within their range (including those not to be part of the network). The unique transceiver addresses to be in the network are stored in the host node. The host node pages its neighbors which are to be in the network; those neighbors become initialized by learning the unique address of the host node, and report the addresses of their neighbors; each reporting node pages its neighbors; the process is repeated until all nodes intended to part of the network are initialized.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2001Date of Patent: January 24, 2006Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventors: Tomi Heinonen, Mikko Rautiainen, Jarkko Lempiö
