Abstract: In some embodiments, a method comprises obtaining a video stream of a portion of a geographic area, the video stream comprising a plurality of video frames, each of the plurality of video frames captured at a respective first time. Contextual metadata is obtained, the contextual metadata associated with one or more objects located in the portion of the geographic area at a second time, the second time being before each of the respective first times. The contextual metadata is inserted into one or more of the plurality of video frames, thereby causing the contextual metadata associated with the one or more objects to be overlaid on one or more corresponding portions of the one or more of the plurality of video frames.

Abstract: A method can include receiving a request for loading a seismic volume; determining a loading order for portions of the seismic volume, where the loading order prioritizes an interior portion of the seismic volume over a boundary portion of the seismic volume; and transmitting, via a network interface, at least one of the portions of the seismic volume according to the loading order.

Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for implementing a hybrid 5G-RAN solution using one or more F1-GWs or IAB-GWs connecting to a F1-PP or IAB-PP of a Private 5G-RAN that can be configured to allow one or more mobile network operators and/or private network operators access to a shared radio access network. In one or more examples, the Private 5G-RAN can be shared via secure F1 or IAB protection-proxy connection to a MNO's F1 or IAB gateway at the mid-haul level of a 5G wireless network. In one or more examples, the F1 or IAB protection-proxy can be configured to receive network traffic from MNO's CU or IAB donor nodes associated with mobile network operator (MNO). The IAB protection-proxy can receive the traffic from the one or more MNO's IAB-gateway nodes, and can transmit the traffic to one or more distributed units based on the intended recipient of the traffic.

Abstract: A network device may receive, from a sending device, a message in a first messaging format en route to user equipment. The first messaging format may correspond to one of a 3GPP cellular network standard or a 3GPP2 cellular network standard. The network device may determine whether the user equipment is associated with the first messaging format or with a second messaging format. The second messaging format may correspond to one of the 3GPP cellular network standard or the 3GPP2 cellular network standard. The first messaging format and the second messaging format may be associated with different cellular network standards. The device may selectively provide the message in the first messaging format or the second messaging format based on whether the user equipment is associated with the first messaging format or the second messaging format. The device may transmit an acknowledgment message based on the first messaging format.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for blocking data packets that are not desired or capable of being received. One or more data packets are received from a data server. The data packets that are addressed to a wireless device are transmitted via a gateway server. The error messages generated by either the wireless device or the gateway server are forwarded to the data server and their number also counted. When the number of error messages meets a predetermined criterion, additional data packets from the data server that are addressed to the wireless device are blocked, for example, preventing tolling the user account of the wireless device for data packets sent by the data server when the device is not available or the user no longer wants to receive the data.

Abstract: A mobile communication device registers for data communication through a mobile communication network with a packet-based network. The device may or may not have a mobile device number, and registers using a fully-qualified-domain-name (FQDN) uniquely identifying the device in a domain-name-system (DNS) of the packet-based network. A packet-data-network gateway assigns a packet-based address for the device, and generates a request for registering the address with the FQDN in a DNS server. Alternatively, the device generates the packet-based address based on a received portion of the address, retrieves the FQDN from an identity module, and sends a DNS-Update message to the DNS server including the address and FQDN. Again alternatively, a DNS server receives an encrypted DNS update message including a FQDN and a packet-based address, and decrypts the message prior to registering the address and FQDN in a DNS database.
