Patent number: 11983582Abstract: In a wireless communication network, a wireless network controller authenticates a wireless receiver and transfers receiver instructions and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) for wireless network slices to the wireless receiver. An item wirelessly transmits a network identifier (ID) and a product ID. The wireless receiver wirelessly detects the network ID and the product ID from the item at a geographic location. The receiver selects an API for a wireless network slice based on the receiver instructions and the network ID. The receiver transfers an API call to the wireless network slice. The wireless network slice selects a distributed Application (dAPP) based on the network ID, the product ID, and/or the geographic location for the item. The wireless network slice transfers the network ID, the product ID, and the geographic location for the item to selected dAPP.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2022Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: T-MOBILE INNOVATIONS LLCInventors: Mark Richard Bales, Lyle T. Bertz, Ahmad Arash Obaidi, Lyle Walter Paczkowski

Patent number: 11956702Abstract: A wireless communication network serves User Equipment (UEs) over a Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Network Exposure Function (NEF). The wireless communication network comprises a non-3GPP Interworking Function (IWF) and the 3GPP NEF. The non-3GPP IWF receives NEF Application Programming Interface (API) calls that have UE data from the UEs over non-3GPP access nodes. The non-3GPP IWF transfers the NEF API calls that have the UE data to the 3GPP NEF. The 3GPP NEF receives the NEF API calls that have the UE data from the non-3GPP IWF. The 3GPP NEF exposes the UE data to an Application Functions (AF) in response to the NEF API calls.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: T-MOBILE INNOVATIONS LLCInventors: Marouane Balmakhtar, Lyle T. Bertz, Robert Keith Butler, Mark Richard Bales

Patent number: 11930462Abstract: Precision digital chronography based on detected changes in state of a processor is described. The changes in state may be detected by another processor and an averaged time interval generated. A signal corresponding to the averaged time interval may be communicated to a distributed database and propagated to remote systems. Devices associated with the remote systems may adjust or set a device clock in accordance with the averaged time interval.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2023Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: T-MOBILE INNOVATIONS LLCInventors: Lyle W. Paczkowski, Peter P. Dawson, Ronald Richard Marquardt, Walter F. Rausch

Patent number: 11442547Abstract: A system and method for a haptic display is disclosed. The haptic display includes a display head and an actuator layer. The actuator layer includes a pin board configured with a plurality of opening, and a plurality of pins configured to translate within the plurality of openings. One or more of the plurality of pins includes a display interaction end configured to physically interact with the display head and an actuation end. The actuation layer further includes a plurality of linear actuator elements physically coupled to the actuation end of the plurality of pins configured to bias a set of the pins against the display head. A bias of the set of pins against the display head generates a protrusion on the flexible surface that may be reduced by a biasing force of a user, wherein the user detects a reduction of the protrusion.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2021Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: Rockwell Collins, Inc.Inventor: Lyle Richard

Patent number: 6207421Abstract: A universal terminator includes a heterocycle other than naturally occuring DNA heterocycles such as adenine, cytosine, guanine and thymine. In terminating strand synthesis, the hybridized primer-template is split into four aliquots. In the “A” vial is added DNA polymerase and normal amounts of “C”, “G”, and “T” deoxynucleotides, along with a reduced amount of “A” deoxynucleotide and an amount of the universal terminator such that statistically the universal terminator has less than a one percent chance of being incorporated at sites where a “C”, “G”, or “T” deoxynucleotide should be incorporated and about a one percent chance of being incorporated at sites where an “A” deoxynucleotide should be incorporated.Type: GrantFiled: July 21, 1995Date of Patent: March 27, 2001Assignee: Li-Cor, Inc.Inventors: Lyle Richard Middendorf, John A. Brumbaugh

Patent number: 6143151Abstract: To sequence long strands of DNA, clone strands having lengths longer than 100 bases are, in one embodiment, marked on one end with biotin. These strands are divided into 4 aliquots and each aliquot: (1) is uniquely chemically treated to randomly terminate the strands at the non-biotinylated end at a selected type of base; and (2) is moved continuously by electrophoresis through a different one of four identical channels. In the one embodiment, the strands are randomly terminated at a selected base type and they are moved into avidin, which due to high affinity, combines with the biotin marked ends of shorter strands before the longer strands are fully resolved in the gel. The avidin is marked with fluorescein, the strands are scanned and the signals are decoded. In another embodiment, the strands are synthesized, with termination at a selected base type and marked either by the above method of by ethidium bromide.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 1995Date of Patent: November 7, 2000Assignee: Li-Cor, Inc.Inventors: Lyle Richard Middendorf, John Brumbaugh

Patent number: 6086737Abstract: To sequence DNA automatically, DNA marked with far infrared, near infrared, or infrared fluorescent dyes are electrophoresed in a plurality of channels through a gel electrophoresis slab or capillary tubes wherein the DNA samples are resolved in accordance with the size of DNA fragments in the gel electrophoresis slab or capillary tubes into fluorescently marked DNA bands. The separated samples are scanned photoelectrically with a laser diode and a sensor, wherein the laser scans with scanning light at a wavelength within the absorbance spectrum of said fluorescently marked DNA samples and light is sensed at the emission wavelength of the marked DNA.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 1995Date of Patent: July 11, 2000Assignee: Li-Cor, Inc.Inventors: Gabor Patonay, Narasimhachari Narayanan, John A. Brumbaugh, Lyle Richard Middendorf

Patent number: 6004446Abstract: To sequence DNA, DNA samples marked with flourscent infrared dye are applied at a plurality of locations for electrophoresing in a plurality of channels through a gel electrophoresis slab. The channels are scanned with a laser and a sensor, that include a microscope focused on the gel slab. The focal point and slab are adjusted with respect to each other so that the focal point of the microscope remains on the gel slab during a scan. The data from the scan is directly used to amplitude modulate density readings on a display, and the scan is displayed in a horizontal sweep of a cathode ray tube, whereby said cathode ray tube provides intensity displays of bands representing DNA. Different sizes of glass gel sandwiches may be mounted to the same console for different sequencing tasks.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 1998Date of Patent: December 21, 1999Assignee: Li-Cor, Inc.Inventors: Lyle Richard Middendorf, Robert Clark Bruce, Robert David Eckles

The separated samples are scanned photoelectrically with a laser and a sensor, wherein the laser scans with scanning light at a scanning light frequency within the absorbance spectrum of said fluorescently marked DNA samples and light is sensed at the emission frequency of the marked DNA. The light is modulated from said laser at a predetermined modulation frequency and fluorescent light emitted by said DNA bands at said modulation frequency is detected, whereby background noise from the medium through which the light is transmitted is discriminated against.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 1996Date of Patent: January 26, 1999Assignee: The Board of Regents of the University of NebraskaInventors: Lyle Richard Middendorf, John Albert Brumbaugh, Gi Young Jang
