  • Patent number: 9148679
    Abstract: Processing video data for delivery to a remote wireless includes receiving video data from a video source and receiving position and motion information regarding the remote wireless device. Operation also includes, based upon the position and motion information regarding the remote wireless device, determining an anticipated Quality of Service (QoS) available for servicing of transmissions to the remote wireless device and determining video processing parameters based upon the video data and the anticipated QoS. Operation further includes processing the video data based upon the video processing parameters to produce an output video stream and transmitting the output video stream for delivery to the remote wireless device. Operation may also/alternatively include altering wireless transmission parameters of a transport stream servicing delivery of the video data to alter the anticipated QoS.

  • Patent number: 8908907
    Abstract: Methods and systems for video transmission and processing with customized watermarking delivery are disclosed and may include watermarking data at a communication device utilizing received global positioning (GPS) data and communicating the watermarked video data to a receiving communication device. The receiving communication device may verify the watermarked data, and may determine whether to render the received watermarked data based on the verification. The communication device may include an edge device, and may receive a feedback signal communicated from the receiving communication device. The watermarking of subsequently processed data may be adjusted based on the received feedback signal, which may include GPS data and/or device parameters corresponding to the receiving communication device. The watermarked video data communicated to the receiving communication device may be adjusted based on one or more device parameters corresponding to the receiving communication device and/or GPS information.

  • Patent number: 8707379
    Abstract: A network module receives network global positioning system (GPS) signals and that transmits a video signal to a remote device that includes time stamps that are based on the network GPS signals. The network module receives a device parameter from the remote device that indicates that local GPS signals are available to the remote device. The network module reduces a frequency of the time stamps when the device parameter indicates that local GPS signals are available to the remote device.

  • Patent number: 8654837
    Abstract: A video transmission system includes a transceiver module that receives a device parameter from a remote device and that transmits a video signal to the remote device, wherein the video signal is transmitted as at least one separate video layer stream chosen from, an independent video layer stream and at least one dependent video layer streams that require the independent video layer for decoding. A control module chooses the at least one separate video layer stream based on the device parameter.

  • Patent number: 8494440
    Abstract: Transmitting streamed video to at least one wireless terminal by a wireless network having a channel frequency reuse pattern. The wireless network receives a request for the streamed video from the at least one wireless terminal and receives position information from the at least one wireless terminal requesting the streamed video. The wireless network selects a transceiving device to service transmission of the streamed video to the at least one wireless terminal. The transceiving device is allocated a first channel frequency set of the channel frequency reuse pattern. The wireless network or a component thereof selects a channel from a second channel frequency set that is different from the first channel frequency set. The transceiving device then, using a directional antenna, transmits the streamed video to the at least one wireless terminal in a direction based upon the position information using the selected channel.
