Abstract: Methods, program products, and systems for using multiple sensors to determine a location fingerprint are described. A sampling device can measure RF signals detected at a train station of a transit system or a route of the transit system. The sampling device, or a location server receiving the measurements, can filter RF signal measurements using one or more readings from sensors coupled to the sampling device and that are different from RF receivers. The readings can be taken concurrently with the RF signal measurements. These readings, designated as motion cues, can include motion sensor readings, barometer readings, or magnetometer readings. Using the motion cues, the sampling device or location server can distinguish different platforms of a station of the transit system and different levels of the station, or filter out RF signal measurements that may have been inaccurate, e.g., as caused by disturbances from a train entering or leaving a station.

Abstract: Block processing pipeline methods and apparatus in which. motion estimation is performed at a stage of a motion estimation module for a current block with respect to a reference frame at one or more partition sizes to determine candidate motion vectors. The candidate motion vectors may be passed to a next stage for refinement. Motion estimation may then be performed at the next stage to refine the motion vectors. In performing motion estimation at this stage, the input motion vectors of at least one partition size received from the previous stage may be used as candidate motion vectors in searches for at least one other partition size.
