Title: Uplink resource selection based on service type
Inventor: KUBOTA KEIICHI
IPC: H04W28/02
Filed: 2012-05-17
Abstract: A method of wireless communications comprises performing an uplink resource selection procedure 50 configured to determine a service type (52) of the data to be transmitted, and select an uplink resource from available uplink resources in response to the service type 54, 56, 58. Data is transmitted to a communications network element using the selected uplink resource. The selection may be selection between a R99 PRACH (Release 99 Physical Random Access Channel) or an E-DCH (Enhanced Dedicated Channel). The service type on which the selection is based may be to determine whether the service is for a circuit-switched call setup, a packet-switched connection setup, registration, an emergency call or for a low-priority connection. The selection is made by the User Equipment based on an indicated mapping received from system information 51.

Title: Processing a plurality of received data copies using multi-input CRC with maximum ratio combining
Inventor: ACHIR MOUNIR
IPC: H03M13/09
Filed: 2012-08-01
Abstract: A method for processing a plurality of received copies of the same data 30, 40, 50 comprises performing maximum ratio combining of equivalent data portions of the received copies to derive a further copy 60, dividing the received copies and the further copy into sub-portions and then assembling combinations of the divided sub-portions to provide reconstructed copies of the data 165. An error assessment is performed on the reconstructed copies and on this basis one is selected as an output. The maximum ratio combining may take the form of a simple majority decision and the error assessment may involve a cyclic redundancy check (CRC). A parallel architecture may be employed for the processing (fig. 4) with the CRC checks on the reconstructed copies being performed continuously while the data of the received copies is read. Consequently the CRC checks can start simultaneously for all of the reconstructed copies before the data is completely read.

Title: Management of Memory for Storing Display Data
Inventor: SKINNER COLIN
IPC: G06F3/14
Filed: 2012-12-21
Abstract: Managing display control device (16) memory (28) at a host (10), the memory used for storing display data sent from the host to the device for display, comprises maintaining a map (18) at the host corresponding to the device memory, the map indicating locations corresponding to addresses of the memory at which data is stored or not. The map is used to determine a size of a portion of the display data, and a location on the map where the portion of display data would fit. A memory address corresponding to the determined location on the map, together with the data, is then sent to the device, and the location on the map corresponding to the memory address is updated to indicate that the address is occupied. The data may be compressed using compression parameters, which can be selected so that the compressed data will fit into a free space in the device memory. The order of portions to be decompressed and combined can also be sent. An expectation of whether the memory will run out of space before all the display data is sent can be calculated. Receiving display data at a device and storing it according to received instructions is also disclosed.

Title: Estimating and correcting for multipath in GNSS navigation systems
Inventor: LIN XIANGDONG
IPC: G01S5/02
Filed: 2013-05-02
Abstract: The present invention relates generally to methods and apparatuses for estimating and correcting for multipath in GNSS navigation systems. According to some aspects, the invention takes advantage of situations where position and estimated position error are reasonably stable so as to detect when large multipath errors are present with confidence. After detection, the slowly varying biases from multipath or other un-modelled sources can be modelled separately from the navigation state. This makes it possible to keep the measurements in the solution without biasing the navigation state and further ignores the long-term biases for use over short-term periods with minimized pseudorange error when necessary.
