20100246825 | WIRELESS COMMUNICATION METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR TRANSMISSION AUTHENTICATION AT THE PHYSICAL LAYER - The subject authentication scheme encompasses a large family of authentication systems which may be built over existing transmission systems. By superimposing a carefully designed secret modulation on the waveforms, authentication is added to the signal without requiring additional bandwidth. The authentication information (tag signal) is sent concurrently with data (message signal). The authentication is designed to be stealthy to the uninformed user, robust to interference, and secure for identity verification. The tradeoffs between these three goals are identified and analyzed. The use of the authentication for channel estimation is also considered, and improved bit errors are demonstrated for time-varying channels. With a long enough authentication code word an authentication system is achieved with very slight data degradation. Additionally, by treating the authentication tag as a sequence of pilot symbols, the data recovery may be improved by the aware receiver. | 09-30-2010 |

20110128350 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CHOOSING A DESIRED FIELD OF VIEW FROM A WIDE-ANGLE IMAGE OR VIDEO - A wide-angle camera will collect wide-angle images. A portion of the wide-angle image (desired field of view) will be selected based on accelerometer readings. More particularly, to keep the desired field of view of a camera in an appropriate position, a correction is made to the tilt and roll of the desired field of view by using motion sensors to determine the horizon based on measuring the direction of gravity. A correction is also made to the yaw of the desired field of view using motion sensors to determine a forward facing position when the user is in motion. Because the desired field of view is corrected for variations resulting from user activity, any image collected from the camera is more likely to be pointed at a desired position. | 06-02-2011 |

20090003342 | Reliable multicast with automatic session startup and client backfil support - A form of multicast, referred to as “on-demand multicast,” provides a methodology that allows for “on demand” multicasting of data. On-demand multicast allows clients to join or leave a transmission at any point. There is no transmission session start or end time—the session is continuously available, although data is not necessarily continuously transmitted. Data blocks missed by late-joining clients are retransmitted per amalgamated client requests through multiple transmission cycles until all clients that have joined the transmission session receive all content. Once a client has received all data blocks comprising the content for the session, the client may exit the ongoing session. | 01-01-2009 |
