Abstract:
In a telecommunications network. including a first cell with a first base station node having a first node controller component and a first radio network controller (RNC) component; a method of mitigating interference within the first cell including: the first base station node determining when the first cell is experiencing interference; and the first base station node determining which one or more adjacent cells is likely to be a source of the interference; and the first base station node initiating a command configured to effect a reduction in power used by the one or more adjacent cells. The determination of likely interference source may be by received total wideband power (RTWP) measurements or outer loop power control (OLPC) commands. Preferably the first base station node determines the likely source of interference via the user terminals within its cell which are currently in soft handover, in that the cell or cells that they are in soft handover with are likely to contain the source of the interference.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method to test a protocol stack operable to be loaded to a wireless terminal. This involves the creation of simulation scripts from prior test case logs associated with a prior test case executed on a physical wireless terminal. When the prior test case is failed on a physical device, the simulation scripts are used to locate and correct errors in protocol stack. The simulation scripts are then stored within and retrieved from a library. These simulations scripts are loaded within a simulation environment within computer systems such as a personal computer. The simulation scripts are executed on the protocol stack within the simulation environment to produce a set of results. These results are then compared to a reference log, wherein a favorable comparison indicates a satisfactory simulation. Should an unfavorable comparison result, the protocol stack may be revised. The above process may then be repeated on the revised protocol stacks following the detection, location and correction of errors within the protocol stack.
Abstract:
A mobile telecommunications network includes a core and a radio access network having a wireless device for wireless communication with mobile terminals registered with the network, wherein the radio access network includes a controller operable to control the use of network resources by the mobile terminals. The controller may include an application programming interface (API) which provides a consistent interface to a multiplicity of applications hosted on the controller. The controller may be provided at an access node site and/or a gateway site.

Abstract:
The present invention provides methods for determining which ads to present to a user. An embodiment of the method comprises identifying one or more ads, at least one of the identified ads associated with a video. For each identified ad, a first score is calculated. The first score for the identified ad associated with the video is calculated based on one or more metrics representing user interactions associated with viewing the video. In one embodiment, the score for the ad associated with the video will be better (e.g., higher) the more viewers of the video hosting service interact with the associated video, since such interactions thereby indicate a higher over level of viewer interest in the video. One or more of the identified ads are selected to be presented to the user based at least in part on the first score of each of the identified ads. The one or more selected ads are transmitted to a device for presenting to the user.

Abstract:
A cooling pillow has a cooler module, a heatsink module. The heatsink module is formed in the cooler module. The peltier cooler has a bottom side and a top side. The peltier cooler transfers heat from the bottom side of the peltier cooler to the heatsink module. The water tube absorbs heat from the heatsink module. The fiberglass bottom stabilizes the heatsink module. The fiberglass bottom also insulates the heat within the cooler module. The pressure sensor is formed in the cooler module. The pressure sensor measures pressure from the user. The pillow antenna is formed within the cooler module.
