  • Patent number: 9749840
    Abstract: Generating and analyzing call detail records for various uses of mobile network resources includes, at a mobile network service bus configured to communicate with one or more service entities in a mobile core network, generating a first set of call detail records (CDRs) for messages received from the service entities in the mobile core network and a second set of CDRs for messages received from a tenant server that is providing an applications or a service on the mobile core network. Each of the CDRs included in the first set of CDRs and the second set of CDRs is tagged based on the processes involved in generating the particular CDR. Relationships are determined between the CDRs included in the first set of CDRs and the second set of CDRs based on the tagging and one or more of usage operations and network diagnostic operations are performed based on the relationships.

  • Publication number: 20100098134
    Abstract: An input signal to a radio device is received and has its frequency spread prior to processing the signal to allow the performance benefits of a spread spectrum signal. After processing, the signal is despread by analog or digital processing to create an output signal. The spreading and despreading functions can be implemented with known techniques or a truly random bit sequence.

  • Patent number: 4685522
    Abstract: A fully programmable system for controlling the operation of one or more gas or oil production wells by controlling the intermittent operation of the wells in response to either programmed information or monitored and measured criteria related to the wells themselves. The system includes battery powered solid state circuitry comprising a keyboard, a programmable memory, a microprocessor, control circuitry, means for inputting measured parameters from a plurality of transducers and a liquid crystal display system for displaying information contained within the memory, or one of the measured parameters. In one embodiment, the system monitors pressure, flow, and other parameters of a plurality of wells drawing petroleum products from a common reservoir to control the intermittent operation of either gas injection to the well, outflow of fluids from the well, or shutting in of the well to maximize the overall output of the entire array of wells drawing from the common reservoir.
