20130182118 | Method For Performing Video Surveillance Of A Mobile Unit - A method for performing video surveillance of a mobile unit in a wireless network is provided. A wireless network receives a surveillance request for a mobile unit. The surveillance request comes from a law enforcement agency and includes the identity of the mobile unit and a geographical area. The wireless network determines that the mobile unit has entered the geographical area and sends the geographical location of the mobile unit from the wireless network to the law enforcement agency. | 07-18-2013 |
20130183922 | Method For Determining When A Large Crowd Gathers Based Upon Mobile Unit Registration Messages - A plurality of registration messages are received at a base station from a plurality of mobile units. The base station collects these registration messages for a predetermined period of time. At the end of the predetermined period of time, the base station sends the registration messages, or a summary of the registration messages, to a wireless network. The wireless network examines the registration messages to determine if the number of registration messages received for a predefined geographic area exceeds a predetermined threshold. If so, the wireless network sends a crowd information update message to a law enforcement agency if the plurality of registration message exceed a predetermined threshold. | 07-18-2013 |
20130183967 | Lawful Intercept Of Mobile Units In Proximity To A Target Mobile Unit - A method for performing lawful intercept of mobile units in proximity to a target mobile unit is provided. A first mobile unit to target is identified. A geographical area about the first mobile unit is defined. Wireless networks record any other mobile units that enter the geographical area and report these mobile units to a law enforcement agency. | 07-18-2013 |

20130302737 | FURNACE BURNER RADIATION SHIELD - A burner system for a furnace. The system may have a wedged or other shaped burner box. An air-fuel mixer may be attached to a smaller end of the burner box at virtually any angle relative to a direction of a gas and air mixture leaving the larger box end. A burner head may be attached to the larger end of the box. The burner head may be sufficient for numerous heater sections of a heat exchanger. A spacer and a radiation shield may be situated between the burner head and heat exchanger. An addition of the radiation shield may reduce the operating temperature of the burner box, burner head and/or spacer. A fan may move the gas and air mixture from the mixer, through the box and the burner head. The mixture may be ignited into a flame which is moved into the heat exchanger. | 11-14-2013 |

20140185614 | MULTIPLE DOMAIN ADDRESSING IN MESSAGE ROUTING - In one embodiment, a method determines a first address of a sender and a second address of a receiver. The first address includes a first hierarchy of a plurality of domains and the second address includes a second hierarchy of a plurality of domains. The method then calculates a crossover point and an index based on the crossover point and the first hierarchy of the first address. The method sends a message from the sender to the receiver where the message includes the index. Before the index reaches a predefined value, each node that receives the message adjusts the index and sends the message to a parent node based on the first address. Also, when the index reaches a predefined value, each node sends the message to a child node based on the second address until a domain in which the receiver is located is reached. | 07-03-2014 |

20110261491 | MONITOR CIRCUIT FOR DETERMINING THE LIFETIME OF A SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE - A circuit comprises a first conductor, a second conductor, and a first detect and disconnect circuit. The first conductor is coupled to a first power supply voltage terminal. The second conductor is positioned a first predetermined distance from the first conductor. The first detect and disconnect circuit has a first terminal coupled to the second conductor and a second terminal coupled to a second power supply voltage terminal. The first detect and disconnect circuit detects a first electrical property change between the second conductor and the first conductor. In response to detecting the change in the first electrical property, the second conductor is disconnected from the second power supply voltage terminal. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising the circuit is also provided. | 10-27-2011 |
