Abstract: A method of calculating local time, in an intelligent network, of a subscriber's User Equipment (UE), determines whether a call originates or terminates with the UE, the UTC offset and DST observance indicator for the (G)MSC signaling the intelligent network, and a determination is of whether the UE is in a Problem Area cell site. If the UE is in a Problem Area cell site, the received time and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) Offset is corrected. A Cell Global Identity (CGI) is used to lookup the UTC Offset and a Daylight Saving Time (DST) observance indicator for the Cell Site. For calls terminating with the UE, if the UE is not in a Problem Area cell site, the VLR serving the UE is used to lookup the UTC offset and DST observance indicator for the subscriber. A time zone delta is applied to the call time of day and the UTC Offset and if DST is in effect, and there is a difference of DST between an MSC serving the UE and the location associated with the UE, a DST delta is applied to call time of day.

Abstract: The present invention uses newly received signal samples to update previously determined scatterer parameters, and therefore, reduces the processing effort required for characterizing scattering objects in a wireless channel. Broadly, the present invention determines a first set of scatterer parameters based on signal samples derived from signals received during one or more previous time intervals, and determines an updated set of scatterer parameters for a subsequent time interval based on the first set of scatterer parameters and the new signal samples. In one exemplary embodiment, the receiver uses a continuous sequential update process, e.g., a per-symbol-period inverse Prony process, to update the scatterer parameters. In another exemplar embodiment, the receiver uses an integrated Doppler approach to update the scatterer parameters.

Abstract: Protocol is provided for safe transfer of files from between nodes of a communication system. The protocol includes a handshake operation between a source (local or initiating) node sending one or more files and a remote (responding) node receiving the files to ensure that control of the file remains with the source node until the file is successfully transferred. The protocol is provided by a file transfer manager that controls the transfer process through a series of file moves that include moving the file into a directory associated with the file transfer manager, from which the file is sent and moving the file out of that directory after the remote node acknowledges a safe copy operation of the file. Files are maintained in the sending directory and under control of the source node at least for a configurable amount of time until the file is safely transferred.
