Publication number: 20240099594Abstract: A method of generating a blood pressure estimation for a subject includes receiving real-time PPG data from a PPG sensor attached to the subject, and generating a blood pressure estimation for the subject via an adaptive predictive model using the real time PPG data. The method includes receiving a real-time measurement of blood pressure via a blood pressure monitoring device attached to the subject and, in response to receiving the real-time measurement of blood pressure, updating one or more parameters of the model in real-time to improve blood pressure estimation accuracy of the model. The method may also include detecting whether the generated blood pressure estimation is above or below a threshold and, in response to determining that the generated biometric estimation is above or below the threshold, receiving a real-time measurement of blood pressure and then updating the parameters of the model to improve blood pressure estimation accuracy of the model.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2021Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Namita LOKARE, Tushar Dilip TANK, Steven Francis LEBOEUF, Keith RICHESON, Paul Motoi MATSUMURA, Julian MULLANEY, Robert Lee SWEITZER

Patent number: 11917435Abstract: A network speed map indicating data rates (e.g., download speeds) provided by a mobile network within a geographical area can be created based on crowd-sourced data. An example process includes receiving a plurality of data samples from mobile devices, each sample including a CQI value and a geolocation. Efficiency values can be determined from sampled CQI values associated with a bin of interest within the geographical area, and a spectrum efficiency value associated with the bin can be determined based on the determined efficiency values. A data rate (e.g., a download speed) associated with the bin can be estimated based on the spectrum efficiency value, and a network speed map showing one or more bins, including the bin, with estimated data rates (e.g., download speed) can be generated and displayed on a user computing device.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.Inventors: Hongliang Zhang, Julian Loaiza, Kevin Hinson, Jacob Lee
