Abstract: Disclosed is a method of determining call quality for a contact centre. A call is initialised between a customer agent and a contact centre agent, with the customer agent connecting to the call at a point of presence having a selectable geographic location. Monitoring information is received, for the call, measured at the customer agent, the contact centre agent and a contact centre service provider connecting the call between the customer agent and the contact centre agent. Quality of the call is determined from the monitoring information collected from the customer agent, the contact centre agent and the contact centre service provider.

Abstract: Certain embodiments are directed to techniques (e.g., a device, a method, a memory or non-transitory computer readable medium storing code or instructions executable by one or more processors) for passive beacon communication techniques. Transmitting devices (e.g., beacons) can transmit advertising messages using a first wireless protocol to provide timing for ranging messages for one of more ranging messages over a second protocol (e.g., UWB).

The method is executable by a terminal device or a network device, and comprises: determining at least one time domain resource unit for transmitting a reference signal; and transmitting the reference signal on the at least one time domain resource unit. Since the reference signal is transmitted on the at least one specific time domain resource unit rather than being transmitted by reusing a portion of subcarriers of a time domain resource unit for data transmission, a delay in transmission of the reference signal is reduced, thereby reducing a delay in data demodulation or CSI measurement performed on the basis of the reference signal, and reducing control signaling overhead for indication of a rate matching resource and complexity of performing rate matching.

Abstract: A light-weight solution for media handovers between different Radio Access Technologies (RAT) is provided. A user may switch from Wi-Fi to Cellular Data (e.g., LTE/4G/3G/ . . . ), from Cellular data to Wi-Fi, and the like. In contrast to a “make-before-break” design for switching between RATs, the technologies described herein are a “break-before-make” design. When a change in a RAT is detected, an application on the computing device utilizing the connection is notified of the change. Instead of removing connection information, the connection is maintained for a configurable period of time such that the application can re-register with the network to continue the communication session. During a transition to a second RAT, the application provides one or more notifications to the user of the change in RAT. For instance, a graphical user interface (GUI) can be displayed showing the change and/or a tone can be played indicating the change in the RAT.
