  • Publication number: 20230389116
    Abstract: The technologies described herein are generally directed to providing radio resources to facilitate a predicted transition to active mode by idle user equipment in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. An example method can include predicting that a user equipment of a group of user equipment in an idle mode will transition to an active mode after passage of a time duration, starting from the predicting, that is lower than a time threshold. The method can further include identifying base station equipment that is able to provide coverage to the user equipment during the passage of the time duration before the user equipment transitions to the active mode. Further, the method can include prioritizing allocation of, within the group of user equipment, an antenna resource of the base station equipment to provide the coverage to facilitate an active mode connection by the user equipment to the base station equipment.

  • Publication number: 20230387977
    Abstract: The technologies described herein are generally directed to providing, based on a paging message, radio resources to facilitate a transition to active mode by idle user equipment in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. An example method can include identifying an idle mode activation message. The method can further include, based on the activation message, predicting that the user device is going to request an active connection. Further, the method can include prioritizing allocation of antenna resources to the user device over different user devices in an idle state, based on a prediction that the user device will transition to an active state before the different user devices. Further, the method can include, based on the prioritizing, directing a base station to cause a beamformed signal to a predicted location of the user device to accept the active connection.

  • Patent number: 11029159
    Abstract: A terrain-based navigation system include at least three laser range finders, each fixedly mounted to a vehicle body, each pointing in a different direction and arranged such that they can be used to calculate terrain gradient in two dimensions. Existing terrain-based navigation systems for aircraft that use a radar altimeter to determine the distance of the vehicle from the ground make use of the large field of view of the radar altimeter. The first return signal from the radar altimeter may not be from directly below the aircraft, but will be interpreted as being directly below the aircraft, thereby impairing the chances of obtaining a terrain match, or impairing the accuracy of a terrain match. The use of a plurality of laser range finders each fixedly mounted to the vehicle body allows more terrain information to be obtained as the terrain can be detected from the plurality of different directions.
