Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100182974Resource Allocation - Apparatus including a transmitter arranged to transmit an indicating acquisition indication channel signature wherein said indicating signature is used to indicate an enhanced dedicated channel resource to be used by a user equipment.07-22-2010
20100322246DISTRIBUTED OPERATION - A method comprises determining that at least one data portion is missing from a first data set; the first data set comprising a plurality of data portion; creating a second data set having a plurality of parts from the plurality of data portions; inserting an indicator for each data portion in the second data set; the indicator indicating the end of the respective data portion; and calculating which parts of the second data set are affected by one or more data portions which have not been received.12-23-2010

20100226562COMPUTER-IMPLEMENTED METHODS FOR DETECTING AND/OR SORTING DEFECTS IN A DESIGN PATTERN OF A RETICLE - Various computer-implemented methods are provided. One method for sorting defects in a design pattern of a reticle includes searching for defects of interest in inspection data using priority information associated with individual defects in combination with one or more characteristics of a region proximate the individual defects. The priority information corresponds to modulation levels associated with the individual defects. The inspection data is generated by comparing images of the reticle generated for different values of a lithographic variable. The images include at least one reference image and at least one modulated image. A composite reference image can be generated from two or more reference images. The method also includes assigning one or more identifiers to the defects of interest. The identifier(s) may include, for example, a defect classification and/or an indicator identifying if the defects of interest are to be used for further processing.09-09-2010

20090252074Method for Determining Successful Receipt at a Mobile Terminal - Transmissions sent on a multicast broadcast multimedia service control channel (MCCH) to a mobile terminal are determined to be successfully received by signalling the expected number of messages within the transmission; and terminating receipt of the MCCH only when the number of messages received is equal to the number of messages signalled.10-08-2009
20100042882Packet Retransmissions - A method of packet retransmission in a communications system having a plurality of user devices and at least one network device involves broadcasting a multimedia broadcast multicast service transmission to the plurality of user devices. One or more of the user devices which failed to receive the complete transmission correctly send a request for retransmission to the network device and the network device retransmits requested packets of the original transmission on a different transmission channel to the original broadcast channel.02-18-2010
20100098003Packet Scheduling - A method of scheduling packets in a mobile communication system includes, in each time period, assigning to each bearer of a terminal, a credit. In each time period for which resources are available, accepting data packets from a bearer in accordance with predefined constraints of priority, buffer content and credit. An accepted data packet size may exceed the available credit by an amount in a predefined range.04-22-2010
20100182943IDENTIFICATION OF MBMS SERVICE FROM A CENTRAL NODE TO UMTS LTE ENBS - An apparatus configured to receive packets associated with a service and to communicate the packets to at least one user in a system enabling communication of multiple data streams in a transmission is disclosed. The apparatus is configured to assign packets of a data stream with a service identifier.07-22-2010

20090023438Method Of Controlling Receipt Of Signals At A Terminal Of A Communications System - A method of controlling receipt of signals at a terminal (01-22-2009
20090213774METHOD OF DETERMINING NEIGHBOR CELL SELECTION - A mobile terminal selects neighbor cell(s) to use in receiving a broadcast or multicast by deriving an estimate of cell quality for each neighbor cell; comparing the estimated quality with a minimum acceptable quality; and choosing those neighbor cells having the highest quality from the acceptable neighbor cells. The estimate of cell quality is based on a parameter of the difference between a common pilot channel transmit power and a secondary common control physical channel transmit power that is transmitted to the mobile terminal on a multimedia broadcast multicast control channel.08-27-2009
