  • Publication number: 20220141776
    Abstract: A multi-standard indoor mobile radio access network having a centralized device is provided. In one embodiment of the present invention, once an emergency (e.g., 911, etc.) call has been place by a wireless device, an application operating on the device transmits a notification signal to the centralized device (e.g., via a radio head, etc.). In response thereto, the centralized device transmits location information of the wireless device to an emergency responder via a wireless service provider, where the location information is transmitted separately from the emergency call itself.

  • Publication number: 20180204205
    Abstract: A system and method for using at least location information to facilitate a transaction is provided. In one embodiment of the present invention, a mobile application operating on a mobile device is used to determine a location of the mobile device. Location information is then provided to a host device, where it is used to identify a second party (e.g., a store at the location, etc.). Information on the second party (e.g., store name, etc.) and acts of commerce (e.g., goods and services) offered by the second party is then provided to the mobile application. A first party can then interact with the mobile application to select or confirm an act of commerce that they would like to purchase. The host device then charges a payment method linked to the first party's account, and receipts of the purchase are provided to the mobile application and a merchant device.

  • Publication number: 20180204204
    Abstract: A system and method for using at least location information to facilitate a transaction is provided. In one embodiment of the present invention, a mobile application operating on a mobile device is used to determine a location of the mobile device. Location information is then provided to a host device, where it is used to identify a second party. Information on the second party, including transactions offered, is then provided to the first party (e.g., via the mobile device, an intermediate device, and/or a device operated and/or owned by the second party). The first party can then interact with the mobile application to select or confirm at least one of the offered transactions. If the transaction is a purchase of goods/services, then a linked payment method may be charged. If the transaction is financial, then the first party may have to further provide authentication data (e.g., a PIN).

  • Patent number: 9936363
    Abstract: A multi-standard indoor mobile radio access network having a centralized device is provided. In one embodiment of the present invention, a centralized device is configured to transmit a wake-up signal to a wireless device once the wireless device has entered a service area, wherein the wake-up signal triggers the downloading and/or opening of an application on the wireless device configured to determine whether a 911 call has been made. If a 911 call has been made, the application transmits a notification signal to the centralized device. In response thereto, the centralized device transmit location information of the wireless device to an emergency responder. The centralized device also transmits a “ping” to the wireless device during predetermined periods of time in order to keep the application open and/or installed on the wireless device.

  • Publication number: 20160262113
    Abstract: A multi-standard mobile radio access network for a building having a plurality of radio heads in communication with a centralized device is provided. In one embodiment of the present invention, each radio head is configured to transmit a plurality of test signals and to receive and measure reflections of the same (e.g., off of walls, ceilings, floors, etc.). Data associated with the test signals and the reflections (e.g., radio head IDs, transmittal and reception power levels, transmittal and reception times, angles of arrival, etc.) are then provided to the centralized device, where they are used to determine an RF power level for each radio head that minimizes interference with other radio heads and x-axis, y-axis, and/or z-axis locations of each radio head within the building.

  • Patent number: 8190503
    Abstract: A method, system, apparatus and media are directed to managing trading of financial instruments with a clearinghouse as a counter-party to trades. A plurality of inputs that includes trade data for trades executed using the computer system is received. A discount curve for projected prices of a swap contract over time based on the received plurality of inputs is determined in real-time. A swap contract price is valued based on the determined discount curve. A margin requirement is determined for a user who wishes to trade or hold a position in the swap contract in the user's account based on the swap contract price. Data about a trade of the swap contract that is executed within the computer system is incorporated into the trade data used for determining the discount curve to provide a feedback loop into the real-time determination of the discount curve.
