Inventor: RAYNOR JEFFREY MITCHELL
IPC: G01S17/10
Filed: 2012-07-24
Abstract: A proximity and gesture detection module includes an illumination source; radiation sensors; and a controller. The module operates in a proximity detection mode and a gesture detection mode. When in the proximity detection mode, the illumination source is used to emit radiation. The module measures the level of radiation incident on the radiation sensors, and determines for the presence of an object in proximity of the module by adjusting the measured radiation level to substantially cancel the contribution attributable to ambient radiation, and comparing the adjusted radiation level to a proximity threshold. When in the gesture recognition mode, the module repeatedly samples the level of radiation incident on each of a plurality of the sensors, individually; and determines the movement of an object in the field of view of the sensors by comparing the changes in the measured radiation levels over a plurality of the samples. Ambient radiation contribution is not removed from the sampled radiation levels during the gesture recognition mode.

Title: Mini-map-matching for navigation systems
Inventor: SYED QUTUB SALMAN
IPC: G01C21/30
Filed: 2012-12-04
Abstract: The present invention uses a map database which is created with the view of optimization in terms of size and complexity, so that it can be easily embedded into a navigation chip. The optimized map database is referred to as a "mini-map" database. The mini-map database easily integrates with the position calculation routine. The algorithm for position calculation includes a map-matching component, which is referred to as the "mini-map-matching" (MMM) algorithm, which is implemented on the navigation chip. Application of the present invention includes any navigation system for vehicles and/or pedestrians. The navigation system may include an inertial sensor, such as a dead-reckoning (DR) sensor, for further improvement in calculated positional accuracy when satellite signals are degraded due to environmental factors.

Title: Providing a UE with scrambling code initialization parameters associated with an interfering signal
Inventor: ROMAN TIMO E
IPC: H04B1/7107
Filed: 2012-12-13
Abstract: This application concerns the use of scrambling code signaling in support of interference cancelling receivers. In LTE systems, bit scrambling may be applied to downlink physical channels or/and downlink reference symbols such as CRS, CSI-RS, or DM-RS. Scrambling or descrambling such signals uses scrambling sequences. These scrambling sequences are calculated based on scrambling code initialization parameters (see the equation on page 14) such as cell ID, an interference cancelation identifier (ICID) associated with PDSCH transmissions, a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) or a scrambling ID (nscid). Conventionally, scrambling code initialization parameters for a wanted codeword are signaled to a UE, e.g. using RRC or PDCCH signaling. The inventors have realized that it is advantageous for a UE to additionally receive scrambling code initialization parameters for an interfering codeword. This allows the UE to carry out an interference cancellation process (such as SIC) to mitigate the effects of an interfering signal.

Title: Cross-site scripting attack protection
Inventor: ZURKO MARY ELLEN
IPC: G06F21/51
Filed: 2011-06-30
Abstract: A technique to provide runtime output sanitization filtering of web application content that contains multiple contexts in which dynamic output is included. To facilitate this operation, dynamically-generated content is prepared for sanitization in advance, preferably by being "marked" by the web application itself (or by middleware used by or associated with the application). Preferably, given dynamically-generated content is marked by enclosing it between dynamic content indicators. Then, after the document generation is completed but before it is output (delivered), the application-generated content is processed by a content sanitization filter. The filter uses the dynamic content identifiers to identify and locate the content that needs output escaping. The filter detects the appropriate context within which the dynamically-generated content has been placed, and it then applies the appropriate escaping. In this manner, the output content is fully prepared for escaping in advance even if it is being assembled from multiple input sources that do not operate in the same runtime environment. In this approach, escaping is added after all other application processing is finished and the complete document is ready for delivery to the requesting end user.

Title: Scheme for identification of MTMF signals
Inventor: JONES KEITH JOHN
IPC: H04Q1/453
Filed: 2013-11-27
Abstract: A method and process for identification of multi-tone multi-frequency signals, for example dual-tone multi-frequency(DTMF) signals, using multiple data sets obtained with variable duration non-periodic viewing windows. Frequency locations of MTMF signals in received signal data segments are estimated by applying a fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to each segment, and producing an interpolated power spectral density (PSD) across a set of FFT bins. The energy distribution of the PSD is determined and compared to an expected distribution for an MTMF signal to produce a likelihood that such a signal is present. Processing is carried out predominantly in the frequency domain, to preserve all relevant signal information received.
