Patent number: 8654727Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and system for transmitting a position reference signal, which includes: acquiring a currently needed Position Reference Signal (PRS) sequence with a length of 2×NRBPRS, wherein NRBPRS is the PRS bandwidth configured by high layer signaling, which is represented by a unit of a resource block; determining the position of the PRS sequence in a physical resource block; and transmitting the acquired PRS sequence on the determined position. With the method of the present disclosure, a currently needed PRS sequence is acquired directly, or at first, a PRS sequence with the maximum length is generated, and then the currently needed PRS sequence is intercepted from the PRS sequence with the maximum length. The present disclosure ensures that an effective PRS sequence can be acquired in any circumstance, thereby ensuring the realization of the positioning function of the PRS.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2009Date of Patent: February 18, 2014Assignee: ZTE CorporationInventors: Bo Dai, Guanghui Yu, Weijun Li, Xun Yang

Patent number: 7881607Abstract: A method and corresponding apparatus is disclosed for determining a particular Optical Network Terminal (ONT) in a Passive Optical Network (PON) is malfunctioning by sending a continuous stream of light up a shared fiber, which results in adversely affecting communications between the ONT and an Optical Line Terminal (OLT). The example embodiment verifies the failure is due to a faulty optical transmitter in the ONT and not a different network fault, such as a fiber optic line cut or power outage. Through the use of the example embodiment, a service provider can determine in an automated manner which specific ONT of a PON is malfunctioning.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2006Date of Patent: February 1, 2011Assignee: Tellabs Petaluma, Inc.Inventors: David A.

Patent number: 7065652Abstract: A system for preventing accurate disassembly of computer code. Such code masking, referred to as “obfuscation,” is useful to prevent unwanted parties from making copies of an original author's software, obtaining valuable information from the software for purposes of breaking into a program, stealing secrets, making derivative works, etc. The present invention uses assembly-language instructions so as to confuse the disassembler to produce results that are not an accurate representation of the original assembly code. In one embodiment, a method is provided where an interrupt, or software exception instruction, is used to mask several subsequent instructions. The instruction used can be any instruction that causes the disassembler to assume that one or more subsequent words, or bytes, are associated with the instruction. The method, instead, jumps directly to the bytes assumed associated with the instruction and executes those bytes for a different purpose.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2000Date of Patent: June 20, 2006Assignee: Aladdin Knowledge Systems, Ltd.Inventors: Bin Xu, Jim Sesma, Robert Freeman, Weijun Li

Publication number: 20060021068Abstract: A system for permitting offline content playback and for managing the rights to one or more digital content files within a computer network. The system manages these rights by encrypting the content files to prevent unauthorized access to the files. Encryption is accomplished by using one or more keys which are associated with one or more segments of the content file. These keys enable an authorized user to decrypt and playback the content files at a subsequent time. When the keys are received, a license which specifies the rights of the user regarding the content files, is obtained by the end user system, and verified locally to permit the content playback.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 27, 2005Publication date: January 26, 2006Inventors: Bin Xu, Weijun Li, Kyle Smith, Dalun Bao

Patent number: 6334213Abstract: The present invention, generally speaking, provides a method for modifying an original executable by injecting it with an injection executable, using a code injection utility. The original executable and the injection executable are of the same or compatible file formats, and the structure of both executables is either known in advance or ascertainable, i.e., by “dumping” and analyzing the contents of the executable. Preferably, the injection executable is a complete, self-contained executable written using standard development tools, such as a graphical, object-oriented development environment. In an exemplary embodiment, the code injection utility combines the original executable and the injection executable in such a way as to control execution of the original executable through prior execution of the injection executable.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 1998Date of Patent: December 25, 2001Assignee: Preview SystemsInventor: Weijun Li
