Patent number: 9860778Abstract: A controller of a layered radio environment map of a wireless communication system. The controller configures a mobile terminal to make a measurement associated with a wireless signal from the mobile terminal to a base station. The mobile terminal constructs a minimization of drive test (MDT) measurement report from the measurement, and uses a network connection to transmit the MDT measurement report. The network connection is selected based at least in part on information related to the mobile terminal. As such, the power consumption in the mobile terminal is minimized.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2014Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Huawei Technologies Sweden ABInventors: Tao Cai, Jaap Van De Beek

Publication number: 20170065831Abstract: A system that generates a three-dimensional model of a tissue surface, for example the inner surface of the heart from two-dimensional image data slices. On this surface, one or more pattern lines are drawn, e.g., by a physician using a user interface, to designate desired lesion(s) on the surface. From the pattern lines, a three-dimensional volume for a lesion can be determined using known constraints. Advantageously, the series of boundaries generated by the three-dimensional volume may be projected back onto the individual CT scans, which then may be transferred to a standard radiosurgical planning tool.
