Patent number: 12126586Abstract: A messaging system for both generating and receiving message data, which breaks up a sent message and displays it as a time sequence of message parts on the receiving user's device. Breaks in the sent message are defined by delimiters, which are inserted into the message data by the user on the generate device and are detected by the receiving device. Delimiters or other part of the message data determine the time period for each part of the message. The first part of the message is displayed on the receiving user's device for the time period associated with that part. Once the time period for the first message part has expired, the next message part is displayed in addition to the preceding part. This continues until the whole sent message is displayed, thus creating a timeline of message parts for the receiving user.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 2023Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: KING.COM LIMITEDInventors: David Viklund, Driss Louriagli, Pontus Lundwall

Patent number: 12108305Abstract: During a positioning session between a user equipment (UE) and a location server, the location server may send the base station a request to suspend the Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection with the UE. For example, the location server may send a request to the base station recommending suspension of the connection or may provide an indication of the amount of time during which position related messages between the UE and the location server are not expected. The base station may determine whether to suspend the connection with the UE, thereby placing the UE in an inactive state based on the information provided. The base station may further determine whether to suspend the connection based on data activity of the UE. While in an inactive state, the UE and base station store UE connection context, which may be used to quickly resume the connection.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2021Date of Patent: October 1, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Bapineedu Chowdary Gummadi, Avinash Shrivastava, Stephen William Edge
