Abstract: System and methods of providing location techniques for a NB UE are described. The UE transmits, to a location server, a capability message that indicates position capabilities of the UE to support different positioning methods and common information related to the position methods, including that the UE is a NB UE. The UE receives a request for location information that includes a request for positioning measurement for a particular positioning method, a NB message size limit that indicates a limit on an amount of location information to return, and a NB response time to provide the positioning measurements. At least one of the response time or message size limit is different than for the NB UE than for non-NB UEs. The UE enters an idle state, performs the measurements, and transmits at expiry of or before the NB response time, a message containing the measurements.

Abstract: A method and system that separate thermal and background interference noise measurements from interference measurements can determine periodicity of an event using active percentage values. The active percentage value of an interference event may be determined based on unsupervised machine learning on a per-Recording Output Period (ROP) basis. The active percentage of the interference event may be used with other characteristics to help classify the interference source causing the interference. After measuring RF energy at a base station in the network at predetermined intervals over a plurality of consecutive first of time periods, for each time period, a method arranges binned values of the measured energy into at least one cluster, determines whether each cluster of the at least one cluster represents noise or interference, and characterizes the interference, and the method indicates a source of the interference.

Abstract: A system for detecting motion in one or more images of a video feed captured by an image capture device. The system collects the multiple images of the video feed and segments each image into multiple portions or cells. Multiple cell groups are determined based on the images, with each cell group including information relating to contents of set of a common portion of the multiple images. A difference metric is calculated for each of the cell groups and at least one level of change of values of the difference metric is determined. The at least one level of change is data representing the video feed that is compared with a still-scene data model associated with the image capture device to determine a respective probability that each of the cell groups includes motion. Motion is identified for those cell groups that have a probability greater than or equal to a threshold value. The system generates a transformed video feed including the video feed and a visual indication of the motion.
