  • Patent number: 10595290
    Abstract: A procedure for synchronization of re-configuration of RRC procedures between the radio base station and the UE is achieved by associating a new configuration to be used by a UE with an additional UE identity. The UE is normally identified by a first UE identity, but is informed in a re-configuration message that the UE also has the additional UE identity. The UE is identified by the additional UE identity when the new configuration is to be activated. Hence, when the radio base station detects that the UE responds to requests, which included the additional UE identity, the radio base station can conclude that the UE has activated the new configuration.

  • Publication number: 20200017103
    Abstract: A method for tracking an object in a transportation system is described. The method includes determining, at a first time, a first location of the object based on a positioning system. A first area includes the first location. The method includes determining, based on a movement sensor, that the object is moving. The movement sensor determines that the object is moving at a second time that is after the first time. The method includes determining, at a third time that is after the second time, based on the positioning system, a second location of the object, and setting the moving time of the object to be the second time, responsive to determining that the object has moved to the second location that is in a second area that is different from the first area. Related systems, devices and computer program products are also described.

  • Patent number: 10126854
    Abstract: A device may determine touch position information representing a position where a touch surface is touched by an object, and may determine force information representing a force being applied by the object to the touch surface. Based on the force information, the device may determine that the force applied to the touch surface does not satisfy a force threshold. Afterwards, the device may determine that a particular duration has not elapsed. Finally, after determining that the particular duration has not elapsed, the device may provide the touch position information for further processing.

  • Publication number: 20180302931
    Abstract: A method for use in a first node in a wireless access communication system (100). According to the method, the first node controls traffic to and from users, UEs, within a certain area in the system, a cell, and the first node is equipped with a plurality of transmit antennas. The first node can employ a variety of multi antenna transmit modes for downlink transmissions, i.e. transmissions to the UEs, and the first node can carry out a so called Random Access (RA) procedure with UEs which do not have a dedicated uplink resource, i.e. a resource to the eNodeB. According to the method, one and the same downlink multi antenna transmit mode is used by the first node during the RA procedure.
