20120129549 | Method and Apparatus for Determining the Location of a Wireless Client Device on a Wireless Network - The rate at which a particular wireless client may be PINGed may depend on many factors, including the accuracy with which the location of the wireless client is required to be known, how accurate the system has historically been able to locate other previous clients in the same general area; the speed with which the client is moving, the amount of other data being transmitted by the client, the needs of other clients being serviced by the access point that will need to PING the client, the current battery life of the client, and the priority of obtaining an accurate location for a particular wireless user verses other uses of the network bandwidth. Based on the multiple factors considered by the system, the rate at which the client will be PINGed is adjusted to optimize the amount of bandwidth used to determine the client's location. | 05-24-2012 |
20120258717 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR HANDOVER IN CELLULAR WIRELESS USING ROUTE PROGRAMMING AND TRAINING PROCESSES - A method and system for managing handover where a database that receives location information about a moving object includes information regarding which base station is used in a current radio link connection and which base stations were used from historic radio link connections. Using the base station radio link history of the object and an electronic map, a processor selects which physical path the moving object is using. Upon matching the object's path with a history of path routes on the list, the processor will apply an optimized handoff sequence to the moving object. The optimized route can be derived from an algorithm that processes previous historical data from moving objects traveling on the same route. | 10-11-2012 |
20120294182 | Method and Apparatus for Providing Mobile Inter-Mesh Communication Points in a Multi-Level Wireless Mesh Network - A mobile backhaul inter-mesh communication point forms an interface between a wireless mesh network on a first level and a wireless mesh network on a second, higher bandwidth, level. The two wireless networks are differentiated, e.g., by causing the mesh networks to be formed using different spectra, protocols or coding, or antennae. The mobile intra-mesh communication point functions as an access point in the lower level mesh network and as a relay point in the upper level mesh network. Utilizing mobile inter-mesh communication points facilitates deployment of wireless network access points while enabling the location of access points to follow the concentration of network users. Mobile inter-mesh communication points may be deployed in personal vehicles such as cars, trucks, and motorcycles, public transportation vehicles such as busses, trains, and aircraft, emergency vehicles such as fire trucks and ambulances, and many other types of vehicles. | 11-22-2012 |
20140019640 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY RE-CONFIGURING COMMUNICATIONS SESSION ROUTING BASED ON LOCATION INFORMATION - System and method for dynamically re-directing communications sessions destined for a particular entity in a communications system, each communications session being associated with at least one predefined route. Location information indicative of a current location of the particular entity is obtained and applied to a predefined set of conditional routing rules associated with the particular entity. This rules-based processing generates a routing result, on the basis of which the at least one predefined route associated with each communications session destined for the particular entity is dynamically updated. | 01-16-2014 |

20090276427 | Method of Extracting Sections of a Data Stream - A method of extracting sections of a data stream, the sections including a set of sequences. Each sequence is encoded separately and coupled together to define a section. The method involves determining a combination of at least two sequences of the set, comparing the combination of sequences with sequences in the data stream, and rejecting or accepting extraction of the section of the data stream based upon the result of the comparison. If the combination of sequences does not include a start and end marker for the section, a search for the start and end markers is carried out before the section is extracted. | 11-05-2009 |
20090282119 | METHOD OF FILTERING SECTIONS OF A DATA STREAM - A method of filtering sections of a data stream involves determining a set of characters of interest, testing each section of the data stream for the presence of one or more of the set of characters of interest and extracting sections in which at least one of the characters is present. | 11-12-2009 |
