Title: Time multiplexed additional carrier for LTE carrier aggregation and machine-type communication (MTC)
Inventor: DARWOOD PETER
IPC: H04W72/04
Filed: 2011-07-21
Abstract: A telecommunications system comprises one or more transmitters operable to transmit a first carrier C1 over a first frequency bandwidth and a second carrier C2 over a second frequency bandwidth. During a first time period T1 data receivable by a first class of terminal (a machine-type communication (MTC) terminal) is transmitted on the first carrier and data receivable by a second class of terminal (a Long Term Evolution (LTE) type terminal) is transmitted on the second carrier. During periods outside T1 data is transmitted to the second class of terminal on both the first and second carriers in combination, i.e. the carriers are aggregated. During the first time period control data is transmitted on the first carrier to enable the second class of terminal to maintain synchronisation with the first carrier. In this way the invention allows the first carrier to be time multiplexed between the transmission of LTE data using carrier aggregation and the transmission of MTC data.

Title: Using common time alignment timer for time advance values from multiple base stations with similar rates of change
Inventor: CHANDRAN SUJITH
IPC: H04W56/00
Filed: 2011-08-12
Abstract: Time Advance (TA) values are used to compensate for the time of flight propagation delay in the uplink from a user equipment (UE) to a node (eg. e-NodeB or repeater). The TA will be valid for a limited time due to movement of the UE. This validity period is monitored using a Timing Alignment Timer (TAT) which determines when the TA needs to be updated/refreshed. In situations where the UE 16 communicates with multiple nodes 10,12 each air link will have its own propagation delay and TA. Movement of the UE may be such that it travels tangentially to one node 12 but radially to another 10. Hence the rate of change of the two TAs will be different and separate TATs will be required, however if the motion is such that the changes to the TA are correlated a single TAT would suffice. The invention monitors changes in the TA values to check for correlations, and rationalises the number of TATs where correlation is found.

Title: Machine-to-machine communication terminal location using timing measurement taken during hard handover
Inventor: WEBB WILLIAM
IPC: H04W4/70
Filed: 2011-09-08
Abstract: A method for determining the location of a communication terminal in a network comprising a plurality of communication devices, each configured to communicate with at least one terminal, the method comprising instructing the terminal whose location is to be determined to handover from a communication device to which it is currently attached to another communication device in the network. The communication terminal may be an M2M terminal, the handover may be switching for one communication device to another or from one carrier frequency to another and the network may operate in white space (UHF TV band from450-800MHz). As M2M communications are often tolerant of delays a small break in communications is acceptable and therefore enforced hard handover 403 to make timing measurements 404 is possible. The timing measurements are sent to a location server 405 to be used in locating the M2M devices. The M2M devices may be static or mobile.

Title: Generating a modified image with additional content provided for a region thereof
Inventor: SHECHTMAN ELI
IPC: G06T11/00
Filed: 2010-05-05
Abstract: An image is displayed in a computer system. The image includes contents having a feature visible therein. The contents have a region thereof defined to be provided with additional content in generating a modified image. An input is received comprising a semantic mark to be placed on the image. The semantic mark indicates an inside-region part inside the region and an outside-region part outside the region. The additional content for the region is determined using a patch-based optimization algorithm applied to the image. The patch-based optimization algorithm (i) identifies the additional content for the inside-region part based on the outside-region part and not on an area of the image that the semantic mark does not indicate, and (ii) identifies the additional content for a remainder of the region without being restricted to the outside-region part. The modified image having the additional content in the region is stored.
