Publication number: 20230396958Abstract: Aspects presented herein may improve the performance of mobile/computer applications. Aspects presented herein may enable mobile/computer applications to differentiate entities that are associated with UEs or entities running the navigations applications, thereby enabling the mobile/computer applications (or their associated servers) to have a more accurate understanding of the conditions surrounding the UEs and their users. In one aspect, a network node obtains first information including at least one feature associated with a plurality of devices. The network node selects a first subset of the plurality of devices for a measurement based on the at least one feature associated with the plurality of devices (or the network node may exclude a second subset of the plurality of devices from the measurement).Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2022Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Benjamin LUND, Bala RAMASAMY, Edwin Chongwoo PARK, Daniel BAKER, Dan VASSILOVSKI, Xiaoxin ZHANG, Soumya DAS, Garrett SHRIVER

Patent number: 11683684Abstract: Techniques described herein include utilizing a mobile device as a proxy receiver and/or transmitter for a vehicle in a V2X network. In some embodiments, the mobile device associated mobile device capabilities may be configured to obtain vehicle capabilities and store such data in memory at the mobile device. The mobile device may obtain any suitable combination of a reception credential and one or more transmission credentials. In some embodiments, the one or more transmission credentials may be generated by a credential authority based at least in part on determining that the vehicle capabilities and mobile device capabilities indicate that the sensor(s) and/or processing resources of the vehicle and/or mobile device meet transmission requirement thresholds for the network. The mobile device may subsequently transmit any suitable data message on behalf of the vehicle using at least one of the transmission credentials.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2020Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Benjamin Lund, Soumya Das, Edwin Chongwoo Park, Garrett Shriver

Patent number: 11682300Abstract: Techniques described herein include utilizing a mobile device as a proxy receiver for a vehicle such that a driver of the vehicle can be presented driving assistance information based on messages received by the mobile device. The mobile device can determine that it is temporally located with the vehicle. If so, the mobile device can be configured to receive messages from other entities (e.g., vehicles, roadside units, traffic signals, and the like) in a vehicle-to-everything network. On reception, the mobile device may determine whether a received data message is relevant to the vehicle. In response to determining that the data message is, in fact, relevant to the vehicle, the mobile device may provide driving assistance information that is generated based at least in part on the information provided in the received data message.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2022Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Benjamin Lund, Garrett Shriver, Edwin Chongwoo Park, Soumya Das

Patent number: 11659040Abstract: A user device and transportation entity, such as a transport vehicle or transport server, perform information exchanges for a transportation service using Device-to-Device (D2D) communications, such as dedicated short-range communication (DSRC), a cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X), or a 5G New Radio (NR). The information exchanges, for example, are related to, e.g., logistics and delivery of transportation services. For example, the user device may transmit a transportation request message that includes information elements, such as an identifier, a type of transport device requested, a number of users, requested destination, etc. The transportation entity may transmit a transportation response message accepting or rejecting the request. Additional messages, such as a status request and status of the transportation, as well as messages related to completing the transportation service may be exchanged.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2022Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Dan Vassilovski, Bala Ramasamy, Benjamin Lund, Soumya Das, Garrett Shriver

Patent number: 11593951Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for multi-device object tracking and localization are described. A device may transmit a request message associated with a target object to a set of devices within a target area. The request message may include an image of the target object, a feature of the target object, or at least a portion of a trained model associated with the target object. Subsequently, the device may receive response messages from the set of devices based on the request message. The response messages may include a portion of a captured image including the target object, location information of the devices, a pose of the devices, or temporal information of the target object detected within the target area by the devices. In some examples, the device may determine positional information with respect to the target object based on the one or more response messages.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2020Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Bala Ramasamy, Edwin Chongwoo Park, Benjamin Lund, Justin Tse
