Abstract: Methods and systems for determining traffic information for devices along one or more routes are described. A content server may send a message to a plurality of devices along a route. The message may comprise an indication requesting each of the devices to send, to the content server, status information regarding the respective device. Intermediary devices may receive the message, respond with the requested information, and forward the message through the route. The message may comprise a stateless messaging protocol message such as an ICMP or UDP packet.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for presence detection of a wireless device in a sensing region. Communication parameters determined by a computing device over one or more periods may be used to generate criteria for determining the occurrence of enter events or leave events. The criteria may comprise, for values of one or more communication parameters, rates of change associated with movement into or out of the sensing region. The criteria may be compared against subsequent data associated with the communication parameters to determine if an enter event or a leave event has occurred.

Abstract: A telephone number (TN) from a group of telephone numbers may be assigned/allocated to a user device (e.g., an internet-of-things (IoT) device, a computing device, a sensor, a smart meter, a tablet, a network device, a session initiation protocol (SIP) device, a web real-time communication (webRTC) enabled device, and/or any other device that is configured for communication (e.g., voice communication, video communication, signal communication, etc.) for a time period (e.g., the duration of timer, etc.) during which the TN may be used to make and/or receive calls. Once the time period expires the TN may be placed in a group of telephone numbers available to be assigned/reassigned to user devices.

Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing distributed content to a mobile device (e.g., in a mobile vehicle) through multiple content access points along a particular route are presented. In some embodiments, a computing device may receive a selection of media content and a selection of a particular route from a plurality of routes to enable navigation of a mobile vehicle from a start point to an end point calculated based on at least a number of content access points along each route. A computing device may divide the media content into a plurality of segments and send each segment to a respective planned content access point of a plurality of planned content access points along the particular route. In some embodiments, a mobile computing device within a mobile vehicle may receive a segment from each planned content access point to enable continuous uninterrupted playback of the media content.

Abstract: A mobile device may comprise a secure memory. The mobile device may receive a request from a mobile application executing on the mobile device to store data in the secure memory. The request may comprise the data and a group identifier associated with the mobile application. A primary symmetric key associated with the group identifier may be determined. The data may be encrypted, using the primary symmetric key, to produce first encrypted data. A secondary symmetric key associated with the group identifier may be determined. The first encrypted data may be encrypted, using the secondary symmetric key, to produce second encrypted data. The second encrypted data may be stored to the secure memory.

Abstract: Methods and systems for processing messages received from a security device are presented. In some embodiments, a server may receive one or more messages from a security console and subsequently may determine the location of the security console. The server then may identify one or more other devices that are grouped, e.g., located within a predetermined distance, with the security console. Thereafter, the server may send one or more alert messages to the identified devices.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods are described for reducing degradation of a voice recognition input. An always listening device may always be listening for voice commands via a microphone and may experience interference from unwanted audio such as from the output audio of television speakers. The always listening device may receive data associated with the output audio over a first communications channel. The always listening device may also receive, on a second communications channel, timing information associated with data. The always listening device may adjust admission of the audio received by the microphone to enable it to arrive at approximately the same time as the data received via the first communications channel. The unwanted output audio included in the audio received via the microphone may then be determined and may be removed so that a voice command in the audio received by the microphone may be processed.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for controlling data such as content and/or application data transmitted to one or more user devices. One method can comprise receiving a request for first content and generating, in response to the request for the first content, a first transport stream comprising the first content and application data relating to a first application. At least a portion of the first transport stream is transmitted to a recipient device. An interruption in the transmission of the first transport stream is detected and a determination is made that only a first portion of the application data has been transmitted to the recipient device. A second transport stream including second content and a second portion of the application data is generated and transmitted.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing a network are disclosed. One method can comprise causing transmission of a first beacon and a second beacon associated with available networks. After receiving a first request associated with the first beacon, the first request may be suppressed. Thereafter a second request may be received from the user device associated with the second beacon, and access may be provided to a network in response to the second request.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for wireless communications. A base station may send a message to a wireless device to activate uplink transmissions for a non-activated cell. The wireless device may receive the message and activate a previously non-activated cell.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for a digital rights management (DRM) interface. A DRM request can be received via a scheme-agnostic application program interface (API). A scheme-specific request based on the DRM request can be transmitted via a scheme-specific API. A response to the scheme-specific request can be received via the scheme-specific API. A response to the DRM request can be transmitted via the scheme-agnostic API.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for performing adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming. A user device may request a segment of a first version of a plurality of versions of a content asset from a content provider, and may receive the segment. An estimated time to receive a second segment of a second version of the content may be determined based on metrics associated with receipt of the segment of the first version and in a manner that takes into account latency with the network, such that a determination whether to switch to a higher or lower bitrate version of a content asset during ABR streaming may be more accurately made.

Abstract: A camera system may automatically identify high frequency motion regions in a field of view of the camera system. Analysis of motion events detected at different regions of a scene in the field of view, may be performed. Similar events frequently occurring at a certain region may be recorded/accumulated and compared to a threshold. Regions with high frequency activity may be determined and a user may be notified. If the user is not interested in events within the high activity regions, the regions may be ignored and notifications to the user may cease. The camera system may determine specific actions/events occurring in a region, such as a person approaching or leaving a home.

Abstract: This application describes methods, systems, and apparatus for allowing a user to easily determine whether the user and/or other user(s) have viewed content. For example, a program guide may display one or more graphics associated with the content (e.g., a movie poster), and in response to determining whether the user has viewed the content, the program guide may include an indication of whether the user has viewed the content. The program guide may include indications associated with multiple users (e.g., different colors, icons, graphics, or text). The program guide may filter the content based on whether the user has viewed the content (e.g., only display content the user has not viewed). A computing device storing the content may manage recording of the content based on whether the user has viewed the content (e.g., delete the recording if the user has viewed the content). A viewing history of the user may be maintained.

Abstract: Systems and methods for delivering content to user equipment are described. The content may be delivered using Internet Protocol (IP) delivery, Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) delivery, or another delivery format. For example, the system may receive content including a plurality of segments. The system may use manifest data to identify each of the plurality of segments. The system may also use the manifest data to generate index data for the plurality of segments, and the index data may be delivered to user devices with the plurality of segments. In some aspects, the system may use location information (e.g., timestamps, such as program clock references) for one or more data packet of the one of the plurality of segments to generate location information for other data packets.

Abstract: Wireless communications for random access procedures are described. A wireless device may send one or more messages as part of a random access procedure. The wireless may re-send a first message of the one or more messages a redundancy value equal to zero if the random access procedure is a two-step random access procedure. The wireless may re-send the first message of the one or more messages the redundancy value equal to zero if the wireless device falls back to a four-step random access procedure.

Abstract: Beam determination may be used in wireless communications, for example, in a beam failure recovery procedure. One or more parameters may be communicated and/or used to indicate an association between resources and a corresponding control resource set (CORESET) pool index of multiple CORESET pool indices. For each of the multiple CORESET pool indices, a reference signal associated with the CORESET pool index may be determined. Wireless communications may be performed by selecting a reference signal for each of the multiple CORESET pool indices, and resources associated with a corresponding CORESET pool index may be communicated based on the selected reference.
