  • Patent number: 9572126
    Abstract: A system (10) for determining effects of one or more factors on one or more properties of a signal received by a wireless communication enabled device (24), the system (10) comprising: at least one sensor for sensing and gathering sensor data relating to a state of the wireless communication enabled device (24) or a state of the environment surrounding the wireless communication enabled device; and decision means for receiving input including the sensor data and determining whether one or more criteria are satisfied based on the input, each criteria being associated with a respective factor affecting a respective property, and determining the effects on the one or more properties of the signal on the basis of the criteria determination.

  • Publication number: 20160007263
    Abstract: A method for re-routing data from a first communications device (200e) to a second communications device (202e) via one of a plurality of networks (206, 208), comprising the steps of a computing system (200a) including a network access point communicating with the first communications device (200e) to receive data and/or information associated with the first communications device (200e) and/or with the second communications device (202e), and to determine the location of the first communications device (200e) and the location of the second communications device (202e) on the basis of the received data and/or information, wherein upon determining the location of both the first communications device (200e) and the second communications device (202e), the computing system (200a) selects one of the plurality of networks (206, 208) to connect the first communications device (200e) and the second communications device (202e).
