  • Patent number: 12219362
    Abstract: In some implementations, an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) may receive a device identity of the user device as part of an emergency call. The IMS may transmit the device identity to an emergency call server (ECS). The IMS may receive, from the ECS, a subscriber identity of the user device. The IMS may transmit the subscriber identity to a public safety answering point (PSAP) through a next generation core services (NGCS) network that uses a Stir and Shaken protocol. The emergency call is then established with a true subscriber identity of the user device.

  • Publication number: 20240231393
    Abstract: Adjusting a navigation path of a worker land roaming edge device is provided. The worker land roaming edge device is identified moving along a navigation path to an asset to perform a task. It is determined that the worker land roaming edge device cannot reach the asset to perform the task due to an environment change along the navigation path. A set of task performance alternatives is generated in response to determining that the worker land roaming edge device cannot reach the asset to perform the task. A task performance alternative of the set of task performance alternatives is selected based on a set of criteria. The navigation path of the worker land roaming edge device is adjusted in accordance with the selected task performance alternative. The adjusted navigation path is sent to the worker land roaming edge device to dynamically adjust operation of the worker land roaming edge device.

  • Patent number: 11838153
    Abstract: A digital signal processor includes analog to digital converters to convert an analog voltage to digital voltage in unit intervals of an analog signal. A decision feedback equalizer (DFE) determines a first level of a digital sum of a digital voltage in a first UI and digital voltages of adjacent UIs (taps). The DFE identifies predetermined sequences of levels of consecutive UIs that include the first level and selects one of the predetermined sequences to decode digital data encoded in the analog signal in the UI. The DSP may be programmable to include taps from UIs that may affect the first UI. The predetermined sequences may include levels of the digital sums of consecutive UIs of the analog signal. The predetermined sequences may be identified in a look-up table based on the first level.

  • Publication number: 20230186121
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system include a processor(s) that engages, based on a request for an inference, from a group of sensors of multiple modalities at a physical location, sensor(s) of a main modality to provide data to a pipeline to generate the inference. The pipeline includes one or more machine learning models which generate the inference for a downstream task. The processor(s) obtains raw data from the sensor(s) of the main modality and applies an outlier detector to the raw data. Based on determining that there is an outlier the processor(s) automatically engages sensor(s) of at least one different modality than the main modality from the group of sensors of multiple modalities and obtains new raw data from the sensor(s) of the at least one different modality. The processor(s) applies the one or more machine learning models to the new raw data to derive the inference.

  • Patent number: 11570169
    Abstract: Usage information of a user for a plurality of computing devices is identified. A usage pattern for each computing device of the plurality of computing devices of the user is developed based on the identified usage information of the user. An indication of the user accessing an application on a first computing device of the plurality of computing devices is received. The application requires one or more credentials for an authentication process associated with the application. A determination is made whether the user accessing the application using the first computing device is following the developed usage pattern of the user. Responsive to determining that the user accessing the application using the first computing device is not following developed usage pattern of the user, the authentication process associated with the application is interrupted.
