  • Patent number: 9335180
    Abstract: Described herein are one or more examples of an apparatus, the apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory. The memory comprises computer program code stored thereon, the at least one memory and computer program code being configured to, when run on the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to identify one or more geographic route options, for a particular traveler, based on a travel time criteria or travel distance criteria for the traveler. The apparatus is also caused to provide, based on the respective travel time criteria or travel distance criteria, respective range indication signalling for at least one of the identified one or more geographic route options.

  • Patent number: 8909147
    Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, a method is presented which comprises searching for at least a device that is capable of a point-to-point transmission of media data. If such a device is not selected for the point-to-point transmission, a transmission of the media data is started on a second communication interface using a broadcast transmission.

  • Patent number: 8306233
    Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus is presented that comprises a multichannel audio transmitter which has a first mode for transmitting a multichannel audio signal and a second mode for transmitting at least a first and a second audio signal, each having fewer channels than the multichannel audio transmitter. A controller is configured to switch the multichannel audio transmitter from the first mode to the second mode when the first audio signal becomes available.
