Abstract: Methods and systems for providing monitoring and real-time feedback of CPR administration include a mobile device software application. The application is implemented on at least two mobile devices, one affixed to the wrist of at least one user and one used as a display device. The application utilizes data recorded by the accelerometer of the mobile device affixed to the wrist of the user and provides data and recommendations relating to chest compression rate and chest compression depth.

Abstract: Improved methods for utilizing 911 services, for implementing 911 dispatch protocols, and for measuring vital signs of a human, all by accessing mobile phone sensors and applications, are disclosed. Vital signs such as heart rate, breathing rate, breathing distress, and blood pressure can be measured using mobile phone sensors and applications. A method for differential estimation of blood pressure involves the synchronization of time between two mobile phones, locating an appropriate position for one cell phone and recording heart sounds, and recording video data from the finger tip of the subject using the other mobile phone.

Abstract: A method for performing CPR, comprising activating an application on one or more mobile phones having one or more sensors, placing one or more mobile phones on the finger of a subject to collect information about the subject, determining whether CPR is necessary based on the collected information about the subject, calibrating the sensors of the one or more mobile phones, placing the one or more mobile phones in a position on a hand of a user of the one or more mobile phones, administering chest compressions to the subject, activating a sensor of the one or more mobile phones, including an accelerometer sensor, to permit the application to capture information about the chest compression rate and displacement relating to movement of the chest of the subject, and transmitting the chest compression rate and displacement information of the subject to the emergency dispatcher using the mobile phone.

Abstract: A method and system for configuring a wireless router and a wireless communications network includes establishing connectivity between a wireless router and at least one wireline router. Connectivity between the wireless router and a plurality of neighboring wireless routers is established through the wireline router. The wireless router is configured based on information exchanged with the neighboring wireless routers through the wireline router.

Abstract: Methods and systems for indoor navigation utilize a smartphone equipped with various sensors. When a person whose initial position is unknown, and in some circumstances whose sight has been impaired, specifies a destination, the navigation system will calculate the coordinates of his/her present location from the sensor readings. It will then calculate the distance to be traveled to the destination and form routes to direct him/her towards the desired location. These steps are carried out using sensor readings and in some cases magnetic maps of the interiors of buildings stored on the smartphone. In some cases dynamic time warping (“DTW”) is used to align a recorded signature of the person's movement through the building with a stored magnetic map in order to identify the person's location within the building.

Abstract: A method for detecting and analyzing driving performance and habits as well as road conditions utilizes a smartphone having an accelerometer and a microphone. Acceleration in the x, y, and z axis can be measured as a function of time and at particular velocities to provide valuable information about driver habits, vehicle performance, and road conditions.

Abstract: A method and system for providing wireless-specific services for a wireless access network includes receiving at a call agent of a wireless access network a call origination for a mobile device. Whether the device is registered on the wireless access network is determined. If the mobile device is not registered, whether the mobile device is active is determined at a mobility control function (MCF). If the mobile device is active, the call is connected to the mobile device with a call agent based on a temporary line directory number (TLDN) assigned by the MCF and passed to the call agent in an extended session initiation protocol (SIP) message.

Abstract: A method and system for managing wireless bandwidth resources include the capability to receive at a serving node a service request for a mobile unit and to communicate with a wireless network node to determine whether sufficient wireless bandwidth is available for the requested service. The method and system also include the capability to process the service request based on the availability of wireless bandwidth.

Abstract: A method and system of control signaling for a wireless access network includes receiving from a wireless access network a signaling message for a mobile device. The signaling message is in a wireless-specific format. The signaling message is converted to a native format of a call agent to generate a call agent message. The call agent message comprises wireless-specific information of the signaling message.

Abstract: A method and system for providing supplementary services for a wireless access network includes downloading supplementary service triggers from a call agent to a mobility control function (MCF) for a wireless access network.

The call agent is informed of the events by the MCF through session initiating protocol (SIP) extensions.

Abstract: A redundancy architecture is described for network processing systems which allows the network to recover from failure of a network processing system without interruption in service. The redundancy architecture allows network processing systems that use state information to associate network traffic into discrete flows, to provide system level redundancy to prevent service outages, or loss of network traffic resulting from a failure in any single network processing system. The redundancy architecture includes an out-of-band network link between the redundant network processing systems. The out-of-band network link allows the network processing systems to exchange state and other data as necessary.

Abstract: A method and system for providing services for wireless data calls includes monitoring a wireless data call for a predefined event associated with a service for the wireless data call. The service is initiated for the wireless data call in response to detecting the predefined event for the data call. The predefined event may comprise a uniform resource locator (URL) match or change, excess use of transmission or time resources, a location change of a mobile device for the wireless data call, a network event, or a combination of any or all suitable events.
