  • Patent number: 8934437
    Abstract: An apparatus and method that allow user equipment (UE) to transmit information directly with other user equipment, using a device-to-device (D2D) mode is disclosed herein. A first D2D UE (dUE1) that wishes so communicate to a second D2D UE (dUE2) in D2D mode makes various communications requests to an Evolved Node B (eNB), which can facilitate the connection between the dUE1 and the dUE2. Among these requests are to make the D2D connection via WiFi instead of via Long Term Evolution (LTE). The eNB determines the WiFi capabilities of dUE1 and dUE2, then assigns a subset of available channels to be scanned by dUE1 and a separate subset of available channels to be scanned by dUE2. Thereafter, the eNB can assign a WiFi channel based on the scans performed by dUE1 and dUE2.

  • Patent number: 8935767
    Abstract: The overlay human interactive proof system (“OHIPS”) and techniques described herein operate in conjunction with any known or later developed computer-based applications or services to provide secure access to resources by reliably differentiating between human and non-human users. Humans have a generally superior ability to differentiate misaligned characters or objects from correctly aligned ones. As such, the OHIP splits an image including one or more visual objects into two or more partial images to form a HIP. The partial images may also be further split into groups of sub-partial images, and/or the partial images (or the sub-partial images) may be moved, so that at any given alignment position, a user can recognize only some visual objects. A user is instructed to reassemble the partial images at one or more predetermined alignment positions using a GUI, and the user is asked to identify information regarding one or more visible objects.

  • Patent number: 8934850
    Abstract: The present invention relates to user equipment (UE) having at least two transmit antennas that are capable of transmitting RF signals to a base station, which selects either an open-loop mode or a closed-loop mode depending on how the RF signals from the UE are changing. In the closed-loop mode, the base station periodically evaluates the RF signals from the UE and selects which of the UE's transmit antennas are to be used. This information is then sent to the UE. If the base station determines that the RF signals from the UE are changing too rapidly for effective control, then the base station selects the open-loop mode, such that the UE selects which of the UE's transmit antennas are to be used.

  • Patent number: 8934471
    Abstract: The invention provides methods for implementing synchronous uplink HARQ process in multiple BS coordinated receiving network. According to one embodiment, for synchronous uplink HARQ process with a relatively short response time limit, the service BS provides a receiving response in accordance with the response time limit, and formally instructs the terminal to retransmit or start a new transmission after the merging is completed. According to another embodiment, the synchronous uplink HARQ process has a response time limit matching the delay of multiple BS Coordinated network, and thus the service BS can transmit receiving response or control signaling on PDCCH after the mergence is completed. Thereby, the synchronous uplink HARQ process in multiple BS Coordinated networks of LTE and LTEA can be implemented.

  • Patent number: 8934969
    Abstract: Various systems, methods, devices and arrangements are implemented for use in pacing of the heart. One implementation is directed to methods and systems for determining a pacing location in the right ventricle of a heart and near the His bundle. A pacing signal is delivered to the location in the right ventricle. The pacing signal produces a capture of a left ventricle. Properties of the capture are monitored. Results of the monitored capture are used to assess the effectiveness of the delivered pacing signal as a function of heart function. The heart function can be, for example, at least one of a QRS width, fractionation and a timing of electrical stimulation of a late activation site of a left ventricle relative to the QRS.
