  • Patent number: 10466054
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for estimating a relative angle (?) between heading (X10) of a person (10) and heading (X12) of a mobile device (12) carried by the person. A first estimate of the relative angle is determined using a multi-axis accelerometer (18) of the mobile device. A second estimate of the relative angle is determined using a multi-axis gyroscope (20) of the mobile device. The first estimate and the second estimate are then combined to provide a combined estimate of the relative angle (?) between the person's heading and the mobile device's heading. The present invention also relates to a system for estimating a relative angle (?) between heading (X10) of a person (10) and heading (X12) of a mobile device (12) carried by the person.

  • Patent number: 9185578
    Abstract: A network device receives probe packets communicated by a user equipment device. The network device communicates response packets back to the user equipment device, including timestamps, and/or other information. The user equipment device may be configured to test the performance of different portions of a wireless network (i.e., determine an available bandwidth measurement throughput (ABMT) of the wireless network) by accessing different network devices (or information associated with different network devices).

  • Publication number: 20150271148
    Abstract: A system and method manages workflows exchanges a document between a first server associated with a first service provider and a second server associated with a second service provider over a network. A first workflow engine associated with the first service provider is configured to apply the document to a first workflow based on a first set of rules. A second workflow engine associated with the second service provider is configured to apply the document to a second workflow based a second set of rules. The first and second workflow engines run the first workflow at first service provider asynchronous to the second workflow at the second service provider. The system and method transports a document between the first service provider and second service provider. A first server encrypts the document to create an encrypted document and append an unencrypted header to the encrypted document. The header comprises a pairwise relationship identifier.

  • Patent number: 8918304
    Abstract: Various methods, systems, and computer program products are disclosed for determining a location estimate of user equipment in a mobile network. For example, a method may include receiving measurement data that includes a time of arrival indication of data communicated between the user equipment and base stations of the mobile network. The method may further include processing only the received measurement data that is within a particular time window and excluding some of the received measurement data outside the particular time window. The method may further include determining a sync value based on the received measurement data within the time window. The sync value may synchronize timing between at least two base stations of the mobile network. The method may include determining a location of the user equipment based on the sync value and the measurement data. The method may include geometric or linear optimization of the determined location estimate.

  • Patent number: 8756528
    Abstract: A system and method of enabling a user to customize a layout of a video display uses a data file. The data file may be stored within an application. The data file enables the user to specify at least one parameter of a cell of a video display such as, for example, a location, height, width, and display percentage. A layout creating module creates the layout based on the parameter(s) defined by the user. A dynamic icon creating module dynamically creates an icon that represents the layout created by the user. Preferably, the icon depicts the layout of created by the user.
