Inventor: MORGAN DAVID L III
IPC: G06T1/20
Filed: 2003-03-19
Abstract: A system for rendering terrain from a viewpoint, the viewpoint having an area of regard, comprises a database, for storing vertices and texture maps.  The vertices represent points on a surface of an object to be rendered and the texture maps represent visual properties of the surface of an object to be rendered. A first database retrieval module retrieves vertices from the database and stores the retrieved vertices in a tile assembly buffer. A first tile assembly buffer is communicatively coupled to the first database retrieval module and stores a plurality of vertices included within the area of regard. At least one sector buffer stores vertices extracted from the first tile assembly buffer, and assembles the extracted vertices into geometric primitives for rendering. A  graphics pipeline renders the geometric primitives.

Abstract: Techniques for supporting location services with roaming are described. A  mobile station interacts with a home mobile positioning center (H-MPC) in a home network for location services even when roaming. The mobile station communicates with a visited network for a data session and receives a request for its location. The mobile station sends first information (e.g., SID and NID) indicative of its current network location to the H-MPC. The H-MPC  determines a serving mobile positioning center (S-MPC) in the visited network based on the first information. The S-MPC determines a serving position determining entity (S-PDE) in the visited network based on the first information. Depending on the selected positioning method, the H-MPC may receive an S-PDE address or a position estimate of the mobile station from the S-MPC and may forward this information to mobile station. The mobile station may communicate with the S-PDE for positioning using the S-PDE address.
