  • Publication number: 20120113828
    Abstract: A method, program, system and apparatus for implementing programmable radio patterns (i.e. beam-forming) in a wireless communication network are discussed. Beam-forming is performed by weighting data samples to compensate for phase variation and frequency variation introduced by a signal path. The phase variation and frequency variation introduced by a signal path is estimated by correlating stored data and calibration data. The phase variation and frequency variation are compensated for by applying phase and frequency corrections, or weights, to the data so as to equalize the phase variation and t frequency variation of the data.

  • Publication number: 20120038513
    Abstract: An antenna interface system, device, method and program allow access to a centralized antenna interface by establishing connection to a server via a first network connection, wherein the server includes a user interface configured to establish a communication connection between the antenna interface system and the user of the access device. The server also includes one or more antenna control programs which when executed provide the command signals, and a second network connection establishes a communication connection between the server and converters that transmit the command signals from the server to the antennas. Each converter is located in the vicinity of one or more antennas and the antennas are connected to the converters so as to receive the command signals. The command signals are used for making adjustments to and gathering information for antenna parameters of the antennas.

  • Publication number: 20110312335
    Abstract: A cellular location method is used in a cellular location system including a database. The cellular location method obtains radio measurements from a user terminal located in the communications network, extracts information from the obtained radio measurements, determines the location of the user terminal based on the extracted information, and stores the determined location of the user terminal and the extracted information as an entry in the database such that the determined location of the user terminal is retrieved based upon a matching score between the extracted information from the user terminal and extracted information from the specified user terminal. Additionally, when the determined location of the user terminal is retrieved based upon the matching score, the location of the specified user terminal is determined to be the determined location of the user terminal.

  • Publication number: 20110130146
    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention relates to a network management method for improving E911 services. The network management method including determining a location of at least one user in a communications network, creating a coverage map for the communications network based on the determined location of the at least one user in the communications network, and providing the coverage map to an emergency services database. Additionally, the coverage map includes information depicting at least one user in the communications network.
