Patent CA-2837097-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SONG BONGYONG
IPC: H04W76/00
Filed: 2012-05-31
Abstract: The application relates to group communications over multimedia broadcast-multicast services MBMS. E-MBMS services can be used to distribute multicast data to groups and could be useful in group com¬ munication systems. However, in conventional E-MBMS services, the time to establish a new flow is on the order of 10 seconds. This laten¬ cy is unacceptable for high performance group communication sys¬ tems, such as a push to talk system that requires less than 1 second from the call initiation from the originator to the granting of the floor to at least one group member. This problem is solved in that a multi¬ cast flow is pre-reserved for the media flow in such a way that it can be quickly established. Furthermore, another multicast flow, which is "always-on", is used as a sort of application layer paging flow in order to indicate activity on the media flow. The user equipment monitors the paging flow (Multicast flow#l) regarding activity of a group com¬ munication (Call Announcement) and upon receipt of a call announce message, switches to the corresponding media flow (Multicast flow #2).

Patent CA-2854784-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CHEMEL BRIAN
IPC: H05B44/00
Filed: 2012-11-02
Abstract: An ambient light sensor measures an ambient light level at one point in an illuminated environment, such as a warehouse, office, shop, cold-storage facility, or industrial facility, and provides an indication of the measured ambient light level to a processor. The processor maps the measured ambient light level to an estimated ambient light level at a different point in the illuminated environment from the measured ambient light level (e.g., a "task height" about three feet from a warehouse floor). The processor may determine the difference between the estimated ambient light level and a desired light level at the task height, and may change the artificial illumination provided by a light fixture to make the actual ambient light level at task height match the desired light level at the task height.
