Patent number: 11252548Abstract: A guest engagement system and associated methods provide seamless engagement with guests of facilities through the use of wireless sensing technologies. The system makes use of individual guest devices which are carried by guests and used to automatically identify and authenticate the guests throughout the facility. Services can thereby be seamlessly provided to the guests throughout the facility. The services include automatic unlocking of doors, including hotel or state room doors, based on the guests' immediate proximity to their assigned room's door. The services also include automated payment services provided at checkout or vending terminals, and automated log-on to interactive displays and portals, among others, based on secure wireless authentication of the guest devices.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2019Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: CARNIVAL CORPORATIONInventors: John Padgett, Michael G. Jungen, Douglas Steele, Kyle Prestenback, Richard J. Criado, Vince Ball, Adam Leonards, Glenn Curtis, Manny Vellon, Patrick Mendiuk, Sander Lam

Patent number: 11191145Abstract: A small cell networking device includes a light sensor and a light control circuit. The device also includes a compartment in which at least one printed circuit board (PCB) is mounted. A first networking module, a second networking module, and a third networking module are mounted on the PCB. The first networking module is a gateway to a first cellular-based network. The second networking module is a gateway to a second cellular-based network. The third networking module monitors network traffic. First and second antennas are mounted to a first surface of the compartment, between a second surface of the compartment and the PCB. A third antenna is mounted to the second surface of the compartment between the second surface of the compartment and the PCB. The first, second, and third antennas are respectively coupled to the first, second, and third networking modules.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2019Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: Ubicquia, Inc.Inventors: Ronald B. Zimmerman, III, Ian B. Aaron

Patent number: 11191022Abstract: A transmission apparatus according to an embodiment includes a power amplifier, an antenna switch, and a control circuit. The power amplifier amplifies and outputs a transmission signal. The antenna switch switches, among at least two or more antennas, an antenna configured to output the transmission signal from the power amplifier. The control circuit performs output power control of the power amplifier when the control circuit outputs to the antenna switch a switching control signal for switching the antenna.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2020Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignees: KABUSHIKI KAISHA TOSHIBA, TOSHIBA ELECTRONIC DEVICES & STORAGE CORPORATIONInventor: Masayoshi Oshiro

Patent number: 11039341Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and an apparatus for scheduling a voice service in a packet domain. The method includes: obtaining at least one value of a first scheduling parameter corresponding to each protocol sublayer of L2 of a voice service, determining a condition needing to be satisfied by quality of service of the voice service, determining a value of a service scheduling parameter of the voice service based on the condition needing to be satisfied by the quality of service of the voice service and based on the at least one value of the first scheduling parameter, and scheduling the voice service based on the value of the service scheduling parameter of the voice service. In this way, a service scheduling parameter is adjusted at an appropriate time when a particular condition is satisfied, so that transmission quality of a link can be ensured.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2018Date of Patent: June 15, 2021Assignee: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd.Inventors: Xin Tang, Yanbo Yang, Ming Li, Yuejun Wei
