  • Publication number: 20230258449
    Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for elevation tracking of devices are provided. Barometric pressure data points and elevation data points associated with a set of barometric measurement devices proximate a device are obtained. An interpolated field of barometric pressure is generated using the barometric pressure data points and the elevation data points. x, y location coordinates of the device are projected onto the interpolated field as a projected point within the interpolated field. Barometric leveling is executed upon a device barometric pressure value provided by the device and a barometric pressure data point at the projected point to determine a relative height difference between the device and the projected point. An elevation of the device is determined based upon the relative height difference.

  • Patent number: 10999790
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide for the selection of a cell of a wireless telecommunications network to which a User Equipment (“UE”) should connect. The UE may receive radio frequency (“RF”) signals from a group of cells (e.g., implemented by Radio Units (“RUs”)) of a radio access network (“RAN”), and may determine signal strengths or measures of channel quality associated with the RF signals. For example, the UE may determine a rate of change of signal strengths over time associated with each cell, a differential rate of change, or some other value, and may select the cell based on the respective rates of change. For example, the UE may select a particular cell which exhibits the lowest differential rate of change of signal strengths over time. A particular cell may be implemented, for example, by a mobile RU mounted on a vehicle that maintains relatively close proximity to UE.

  • Publication number: 20030046450
    Abstract: A method and system for enabling dynamic data-centered programming in a distributed computer network, such as, for example, the Internet or Intranet-based computer networks. A software method can be dynamically associated with an instance of incoming data utilizing at least one processing node within the distributed computer network. The software method can be dynamically located utilizing a discovery mechanism integrated with the distributed computer network. The software method can also be dynamically fetched from any location with the distributed computer network, wherein at least one processing node can dynamically program itself for a current instance of incoming data, such that all future instances of an identical type of incoming data can also be processed utilizing the software method without searching the distributed computer network and downloading the software method.

  • Publication number: 20030046422
    Abstract: Object-oriented routing specifies a method and system for routing objects over a network. An object, which comprises a self-contained module of data and associated processing information (i.e., software method), can be designated and thereafter routed over the distributed computer network utilizing an object router, which can parse the object and apply the associated processing information contained with the object thereby permitting the object router to be self-programmable for any data format. The object router thus comprises an object-oriented router. The object router is permitted to construct the object by dynamically downloading the associated processing information corresponding to data received from an external data source.
