  • Publication number: 20240111504
    Abstract: A method for generation of chat applications includes receiving a deployment request requesting deployment of a no-code application generated by a user within a no-code environment to a chat application environment. The no-code application includes a trigger condition, an action response defining an action in response to the trigger condition being satisfied, and a no-code environment graphical user interface (GUI) view based on the action response. The method includes, after receiving the deployment request, receiving an interaction indication indicating that the trigger condition is satisfied. In response to receiving the interaction indication, the method includes executing the action response, translating the no-code environment GUI view into a chat application GUI view, and transmitting the chat application GUI view to a user device. The chat application GUI view is configured to cause the user device to display the chat application GUI view within the chat application environment.

  • Publication number: 20120293366
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system, method and computer program for a GNSS receiver that is operable to provide an ultra fast Time To First Fix (TTFF). The invention is implementable without requiring the decoding of a navigation message transmitted by GNSS satellite systems. The system of the present invention may comprise a parameter obtaining means, a clock obtaining means and a Fast TTFF engine. The parameter obtaining means may obtain satellite parameters of one or more GNSS satellites. The clock obtaining means may obtain a clock for estimating a GNSS time tag. The Fast TTFF engine may be linkable to a signal interface that is operable to provide I/Q samples from a GNSS antenna. The Fast TTFF engine may comprise a measurement generation utility, a coarse search utility and a fine search utility. The measurement generation utility may compute the Doppler frequency shift and the code phase of the one or more GNSS satellites based on the I/Q samples.

  • Publication number: 20120293369
    Abstract: The present invention relates to navigation data bit synchronization for a GNSS receiver and more specifically to a software-based GNSS receiver that is operable to rapidly achieve accurate navigation data bit synchronization. It provides a system, method and computer program for navigation data bit synchronization for a GNSS receiver. The system comprises a navigation bit synchronization engine operable to detect one or more indicators in one or more data samples received from a GNSS satellite. The location of the navigation bit is derivable from the one or more indicators. The bit synchronization engine may include one or more of (i) a coarse search utility, (ii) a regular search utility, (iii) a fine search utility and (iv) a bit-edge prediction utility.
