Abstract: Various arrangements for handling a voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) emergency call are provided herein. A VoIP emergency call can be made to a designated emergency phone number from a user equipment (UE). During the VoIP emergency call, location data can be obtained from a presence information data format location object (PIDF-LO) tag. The location data from the PIDF-LO tag can be compared with a registered location mapped to the UE. If determined that the location data indicates a location more than a threshold distance away from the registered location, a registered location update request can be transmitted to the UE.

Abstract: Automated navigation systems and methods are provided. An example method includes receiving a request for automated navigation service from an autonomous vehicle, the request including vehicle information and a destination of the autonomous vehicle. The method further includes receiving continuously real-time location and position measurements data from the autonomous vehicle, determining a virtual zone centered around the autonomous vehicle, identifying nearby vehicles proximate to the autonomous vehicles within the virtual zone, receiving continuously real-time location and position measurements data of the identified nearby vehicles, obtaining and updating real-time traffic environment data of the traffic environment, generating an optimal route segment for the autonomous vehicle in the virtual zone, and transmitting an instruction to the autonomous vehicle for guiding the autonomous vehicle to adjust operational parameters comply with the optimal route segment.

Abstract: Intelligent paging for User Equipment (UE) devices in idle mode or inactive mode is disclosed. A UE device that is in idle or inactive mode may be temporarily brought into active mode to acquire its location using intelligent paging. This allows the requesting entity to track the UE device. The location of UE devices may be tracked at the Cell-ID level or at a more accurate level, such as with latitude, longitude, and/or altitude.

Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating inter-network handover of a communication with a call center are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method includes: receiving, at a first network from a second network, information indicating a location of a user device, detecting, at the first network, presence or absence of an active connection between the user device and a call center designated to the first network, obtaining, at the first network, the location of the user device from the received information, in response to the detection of the presence of the active connection, and transmitting the information indicating the location to a location database in communication to the call center.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving accuracy of location information related to mobile communication are provided. In one example, a method includes: receiving communications including location information corresponding to locations where the communications are initiated by a requestor, wherein the communications include a first communication including first location information having a first level of accuracy, obtaining a first registered location based on the first location information, returning the first registered location to the requestor, receiving updated location information for the first communication from the requestor, wherein the updated location information has a second level of accuracy, comparing the first level and second level of accuracies, and in response to the second level of accuracy is higher than the first level of accuracy, registering the updated location information corresponding to the first location information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for reducing the object code size of an application that requires run-time dispatching of object oriented methods. The method comprises scanning an object file corresponding to the application for references to object oriented methods in a dispatch table that performs run-time object oriented method binding. The highest inheritance level associated with an object oriented method is found. All references to object oriented methods above the highest inheritance level are designated as unused. All references to object oriented methods below the highest inheritance level are designate as used. All references to object oriented methods that are designated as unused are deleted from the dispatch table.

Abstract: A communication system according to one aspect of the present invention, comprises one or more integrated circuits. The one or more integrated circuits comprise at least one of a local integrated circuit and a remote integrated circuit. At least one sending application hardware module located on the local integrated circuit has a sending logic that controls the sending of messages from the sending application hardware module. At least one receiving application hardware module is located on at least one of the local integrated circuit or remote integrated circuit. A sending application hardware module sends messages to a receiving application hardware module without its sending logic having been constructed with a priori knowledge of the address of or the path to said receiving application hardware module. A dispatch logic located on the local integrated circuit that routes at least one or more.

Abstract: A communication device (104) includes a radio frequency power amplifier (202) and a bias circuit (204). The power amplifier (202) includes a depletion mode MESFET (214) for RF power amplification. To properly bias the MESFET (214) in a circuit including logic components powered by a conventional battery (136), the bias circuit (204) includes a level shifter (223) to provide the necessary gate-to-source voltage for the MESFET (214). To maintain the RF output power from the communication device (104) constant over temperature, the bias circuit (204) output voltage varies over temperature to track the temperature variation of the MESFET (214).
