| 20080305736 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF UTILIZING MULTIPLE SATELLITE TRANSPONDERS FOR DATA DISTRIBUTION - Systems and method for providing digital data signals in conjunction with multiple satellite transponders are described. An uplink apparatus is configured to divide and recombine the digital data signal to generate a composite signal. The composite signal is then provided to a satellite and retransmitted by a plurality of satellite transponders to a content receiver. The content receiver is configured to recombine the plurality of transponder signals to regenerate the digital data signal. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20080263098 | Systems and Methods for Portable Personalized Radio - Systems and methods for delivering personalized content streams over a variety of devices and networks are disclosed. A user's preferences, customizations, and content are made available to the user through specialized clients for home, car, office, and portable environments. In order to enable personalized content streams on devices that are intermittently connected or that make use of network bandwidth during off-peak hours, the system prescribes a distributed content sequencing engine and a distributed, synchronized user profile and station/channel definitions. The system is also designed to support players connected via unidirectional or asymmetric connections such as satellite radios with or without an upstream data link. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20080261512 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SATELLITE AUGMENTED WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS - A system and method for a satellite augmented wireless communication network is disclosed. The method includes transmitting at least a portion of digital data via a satellite communication network to a satellite signal receiving device, receiving the digital data by the satellite signal receiving device, and providing the received digital data to a wireless communication device, wherein the wireless communication device is operable in a wireless communication network and is communicatively coupled to the satellite receiving device. The system includes a wireless communication device operative in a wireless communication network comprising a plurality of terrestrial receivers and terrestrial transmitters, each serving a designated service region, and a satellite signal receiving device operative in a satellite communication network comprising a plurality of satellite and satellite transponders, wherein the satellite receiver is communicatively coupled with the wireless communication device. | 10-23-2008 |
