Abstract: A method and system for a mobile station to determine its position (or velocity) and time using a hybrid combina-tion of satellite orbit data. In one aspect, the mobile station combines predicted orbit data from one satellite and real-time orbit data from another satellite in the determination of a fix. The combination can be made to the satellites in the same or different satellite systems. The mobile station can use the real-time orbit data of a satellite at one time period and the predicted orbit data of the same satellite at another time period. In another aspect, the mobile station can use the real-time orbit data to correct the clock bias in the predicted orbit data. The correction to the clock bias can be made to the same satellite that provides the real-time orbit data, or to a different satellite in the same or in another satellite system.
Patent CA-2719426-A1 (CA)
Inventor: LEE DALSU
IPC: H04W4/12
Filed: 2010-10-27
Abstract: Automatic identification and authentication of a user of a mobile application entails receiving from the wireless communications device a unique device identifier and an e-mail address corresponding to the wireless communications device, associating a registration identifier with the unique device identifier and the e-mail address, generating an authentication token, and communicating the authentication token and the registration identifier to the wireless communications device. This technology obviates the need for the user to remember and enter a user ID and password to access backed-up application data on a server. This is particularly useful for instant messaging applications, e.g. PIN messaging, in which the unique device identifier is used to identify the user and is also the transport address. Once registered, the user who has switched to a new device or has wiped his existing device, can restore contacts or other application data from the server based on the registration identifier.
