Patent CA-2652847-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CLAESSON INGVAR
IPC: G10L21/0208
Filed: 2006-06-05
Abstract: The invention relates to an adaptive method of extracting at least of desired electro magnetic wave signals, sound wave signals (40, 42), and any other signals from a mixture of signals (40, 42, 44, 46) and suppressing noise and interfering signals to produce enhanced signals (50) corresponding to desired (10) signals, and an apparatus (70) therefore. It relies on the concept of at least one of an attenuation of input signals in each sub-band for signals in such a manner that all desired (10) signals are attenuated less than noise or interfering source signals, and/or an amplification of input signals in each sub-band for source signals in such a manner that all desired (10) signals are amplified, and that they are amplified more than the noise and interfering signals.

Title: Predictive downloading of map data
Inventor: CROWLEY MICHAEL J
IPC: G01C21/36
Filed: 2009-05-01
Abstract: A method of requesting map data by a wireless communications device entails steps of predicting a future area of interest for which map data may be required, downloading the map data for the future area of interest, and then caching the map data for the future area of interest. Cached map data is thus available for rendering when the device moves into the future area of interest, thus expediting the generation of onscreen maps. Predicting the future area of interest can be accomplished, for example, by determining the direction of travel, by identifying a roadway upon which the device user is travelling, or by identifying a programmed route in a navigation application.
