| 20080221909 | ANIMATED CONNECTION PAGE - A method and device for facilitating interaction with one or more advertisement functionalities is provided. An advertisement middleware component provides advertisement functionalities for interfacing with one or more systems and components of an underlying device. The advertisement middleware component includes a connection page that provides a consistent and trusted user interface for mobile advertisement. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080263584 | Advertising Communications Interface - Provided is an apparatus for initiating a bidirectional communications channel via an advertising interface. The apparatus includes a communications unit configured to send and receive data and a processing unit in communication with the communications unit. The processing unit is configured to cause advertising data to be transmitted to a communications device for output as a selectable advertising interface. The advertising data may include contact data for contacting an entity associated with the advertising data, such as an entity associated with content of the advertising data. The contact data may be configured such that selection of the advertising interface at the communications device automatically prompts initiation of a bidirectional communications channel between the communications device and the entity. Methods and computer program products for initiating a bidirectional communications channel via an advertising interface are also provided. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20090106413 | Method and apparatus for detecting click fraud - Detecting click fraud at a user device involves detecting a event targeted to a network service that is rated based on the number of individuals who access the network service. The event is of a type associated with user interface selections. It is determined whether the user device is in a low-power state contemporaneously with the detection of the event. The event is caused to be disregarded for the purposes of rating the network service based on a determination that the user device was in the low power state contemporaneously with the detection of the event. | 04-23-2009 |
| 20090111433 | Method, System, and Program for Transmission of Multimedia Data - A method and system for transmitting ( | 04-30-2009 |
| 20090233587 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR UPDATING CAPABILITIES OF A DEVICE - A method and system for transmitting data to a device is described. The method includes steps of comparing, in a server, a list of capabilities of the server against a list of capabilities of a mobile terminal and creating a list of capabilities in the server and not in the mobile terminal. The method and system wirelessly transmit, to the mobile terminal, a request to confirm the capabilities of the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal receives the request and the list of capabilities and compares the list of capabilities to current capabilities of the mobile terminal and then wirelessly transmits data identifying its capabilities to the server, the data including information of new capabilities of the mobile terminal. The server then updates the list of capabilities of the mobile terminal based on the information of new capabilities. | 09-17-2009 |
| 20100169157 | METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR PROVIDING TARGETED ADVERTISING - A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided for providing targeted advertising. An apparatus may include a processor configured to generate a targeting vector and provide the targeting vector to an advertising platform to permit one or more advertisements to be selected based at least in part upon the provided targeting vector. The processor may be further configured to receive the one or more advertisements from the advertising platform. The processor may additionally be configured to monitor a user's interaction with the received advertisements to determine an effectiveness level of the advertisements. The processor may be further configured to update the targeting vector when the determined effectiveness level is less than a target effectiveness level by modifying the targeting vector to enhance the effectiveness level of advertisements selected based at least in part upon the targeting vector. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided. | 07-01-2010 |

| 20100009652 | POSITIONING-TRIGGERED HANDOVER - A method for estimating the location of a terminal operating in a communication system having at least two networks having overlapping areas of coverage, each network supporting at least one method for estimating the location of the terminal, and the terminal being in communication with a first one of the networks, the method comprising: assessing which of the networks is likely to form the more accurate estimate of the location of the terminal; and if that is the first one of the networks, estimating the location of the terminal by means of the first one of the networks, and if that is a second one of the networks, handling over the terminal to the second one of the networks and estimating the location of the terminal by means of the second one of the networks. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100067444 | TELEPHONY SERVICES IN MOBILE IP NETWORKS - An emergency telephone call is supported and routed to a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) in an IP based packet switched wireless communications network. An activate PDP context request is sent from a user equipment to the network. A parameter in said activate PDP context request indicates that the PDP context will be used to transfer an emergency call. An activate PDP context accept message is returned from said support node to said user equipment. Said activate PDP context accept message acknowledges said activate PDP context request message and provides the address of a call state control function. A call setup request transferred to the call state control function includes the Service Area Identity (SAI). The call state control function selects a PSAP based, at least in part, on the SAI included in the call setup request and forwards the emergency call to the selected PSAP. | 03-18-2010 |
| 20100210286 | Location services interworking with intelligent network - The invention provides location information indicating the geographical location of a mobile station via a core net-work node serving the mobile station The method includes the steps of initiating a communication between the mobile station and the network by calculating the geographical location, supplying corresponding location information indicating the geographical location to the core network node, and subsequently routing the communication between the mobile station and the network. | 08-19-2010 |
