Granted: 2012-11-13
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for dynamically and automatically allocating network resources through anticipatory analysis and control. In an exemplary embodiment, the network comprises a broadcast switched digital architecture, and network bandwidth allocation to multiple digital program streams is performed by processing historical user tuning data, which is obtained directly from the subscriber's consumer premises equipment (e.g., DSTB). When an increase or decrease in bandwidth required to support certain programs is anticipated, network resource re-allocation is performed automatically by a software process running on the switching server. In this fashion, speculative but "intelligent" projections of bandwidth and program stream requirements can be made automatically by the server software, without operator intervention. The server also optionally dictates the optimal monitoring and data collection parameters to the DSTB.

Title: Methods and apparatus for selecting between multiple carriers based on signal energy measurements
Inventor: LAROIA RAJIV
IPC: H04B17/40
Filed: 2004-10-15
Granted: 2010-12-07
Abstract: Carrier frequency selection and handoff initiation methods in wireless communications systems employing multiple carrier frequencies are described. Although the receiver is tuned to a single band, based on the relative energy of one or more beacon signal components corresponding to the currently used carrier and one or more beacon signal components corresponding to an alternative carrier, a carrier selection and a handoff determination is made. Mobile nodes can use a single RF chain with a controllable RF filter to receive and process a signal within a first selected carrier band including components from different transmitters, e.g., a first signal component identified with the first currently selected band and a second signal component identified with a second alternative band. The signal components, e.g., beacon signal components from different transmitters may be obtained from a signal which corresponds to multiple symbol transmission time periods. Separate signal energy measurements are performed on the first and second signal components. The signal component energy is compared, and a determination is made as to whether a handoff should be initiated.

Title: Transient compensation of egr and boost in an engine using accelerator pedal rate data
Inventor: KENNEDY MICHAEL
IPC: G05D1/00
Filed: 2005-09-12
Granted: 2011-07-26
Abstract: An internal combustion engine (10) has a control system (24) for processing various data to develop data for control of various aspects of engine operation, including controlling a device, such as an EGR valve (22) or turbocharger (16). A transient compensation strategy develops a multiplier data value for transient compensation of a control data value for controlling the device by multiplying that control data value by that multiplier data value. The transient compensation strategy comprises a map (34, 40) containing data values for the multiplier, each of which is correlated with both a particular data value for engine speed within a range of data values for engine speed (N) and a particular data value for accelerator pedal rate (APS  d) within a range of data values for accelerator pedal rate. The strategy selects one of the multiplier data values from the map on the basis of a data value for engine speed and of a data value for accelerator pedal rate and then multiplies the control data value for controlling the device by the one selected multiplier data value.
