20080250136ACCELERATED AND REPRODUCIBLE DOMAIN VISITOR TARGETING - A device, system, and method are directed towards managing and tracking of cross-domain user activities through use of a beacon. As a user of a client device requests content from different domain services managed by a common entity, they may receive a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) to a beacon in at least one of the different domains. In one embodiment, the beacon is a single pixel image. The client device may also receive a Match-ID. A beacon server in one of the other domains may receive the request for the beacon, and store in a domain log the Match-ID, and other information about the client device, which domain service provided the URL, and/or other related user activities. The different domain logs may then be employed for use in searching for matching Match-IDs, joining common user or client device activities, and for tracking other cross-domain user activities.10-09-2008

20110004700PROVIDING ACCESS TO CLIENT OVERHEAD WHILE TRANSPARENTLY TRANSMITTING THE CLIENT SIGNAL - A method includes receiving client data; extracting overhead data from the client data; mapping the client data into one or more frames, where each of the one or more frames has a frame payload section and a frame overhead section, where the client data is mapped into the frame payload section of the one or more frames; inserting the overhead data into the frame overhead section of the one or more frames; transporting the one or more frames across a network; extracting the overhead data from the frame overhead section of the one or more frames; recovering the client data from the one or more frames; inserting the extracted overhead data into the recovered client data to create modified client data; and outputting the modified client data.01-06-2011
20110032938DISTRIBUTED RSVP-TE IN A MULTI-CHASSIS NODE ARCHITECTURE - A network device includes a multi-chassis system in which each chassis includes a RSVP-TE protocol stack that may provide RSVP-TE services for LSP tunnels associated with each chassis. The multi-chassis system may include an administrative chassis. The administrative chassis may forward RSVP messages to other chassis of the network device. The administrative chassis may encapsulate the RSVP messages with a chassis address. The other chassis may de-encapsulate the RSVP messages and process the RSVP messages according to the RSVP-TE protocol. The administrative chassis may obtain session information associated with other chassis based on RSVP messages received. The administrative chassis may manage adjacency mechanisms and failure and recovery mechanisms. The multi-chassis system including the distributed RSVP-TE protocol stacks may minimize scalability issues and improve performance when high-capacity routing and/or switching services are needed.02-10-2011
20110305136ACTIVATION SIGNALING IN TRANSPORT NETWORKS - A method comprising the steps of receiving a signal indicative of a failure of a working connection in a mesh network having a headend node, a tailend node and an intermediate node, and having a protecting connection, and transmitting an activation message via the protecting connection from at least one of the headend node and the tailend node to the intermediate node for activating the protecting connection.12-15-2011

20130100144ILLUMINATION DEVICE AND PROCESS FOR FORMING COATED RECESSED LIGHT GUIDE FEATURES - This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for providing illumination by using light turning features in a light guide. In an aspect, an illumination system is provided with a light guide configured to support propagation of light along the length of the light guide. The light guide includes a light turning feature formed by an indentation in the light guide. A coating layer is disposed along surfaces of the indentation and the volume of the indentation over the coating is filled with a filler. The filler substantially fills the indentation to an upper surface of the light turning feature and is spaced apart from the light guide. The light guide is configured to provide total internal reflection of light at the upper surface of the light guide. Light from a light source can be injected into the light guide and then redirected by the turning features to illuminate a display.04-25-2013

20120274602WIRING AND PERIPHERY FOR INTEGRATED CAPACITIVE TOUCH DEVICES - This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus for a projected capacitive touch (PCT) sensor that may include thin sensor electrodes coated with additional layers to form an optical cavity that reinforces a wavelength range or color of incident light. The sensor electrodes and a cover glass border and/or decorations may be fabricated simultaneously. In some implementations, the thickness of the optical cavity will be selected such that the “color” of reflected light is black. The sensor electrodes may not be noticeable to a human observer. However, in some other implementations, the thickness of the optical cavity may be selected such that the sensor electrodes and/or the decorative portions will have another color. Routing wires of the touch sensor may be shielded by a grounded conductive layer in the border.11-01-2012

20130080559STORAGE AREA NETWORK ATTACHED CLUSTERED STORAGE SYSTEM - A storage area network (SAN)-attached storage system architecture is disclosed. The storage system provides strongly consistent distributed storage communication protocol semantics, such as SCSI target semantics. The system includes a mechanism for presenting a single distributed logical unit, comprising one or more logical sub-units, as a single logical unit of storage to a host system by associating each of the logical sub-units that make up the single distributed logical unit with a single host visible identifier that corresponds to the single distributed logical unit. The system further includes mechanisms to maintain consistent context information for each of the logical sub-units such that the logical sub-units are not visible to a host system as separate entities from the single distributed logical unit.03-28-2013

20090316842PHASE-NOISE RESILIENT GENERATION OF A CHANNEL QUALITY INDICATOR - System(s) and method(s) are provided for generating phase-noise resilient channel quality indicator(s). A pilot signal utilized to determine a channel quality indicator is rotated to be aligned to a phase reference signal. Separate noise evaluations in quadrature and in-phase directions are utilized, at least in part, to generate a net noise estimate that is phase-noise compensated or resilient. For example, various combination schemes of quadrature and in-phase noise evaluations can be exploited to generate a net noise estimate, the schemes include weighted average of in-phase and quadrature noise estimates and running averages thereof. Simulation of net noise estimates as a function of geometry conditions reveal that the combination schemes provide substantive mitigation of phase-noise, thus making CQI generation phase-noise resilient.12-24-2009
20100135172METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PREDICTING CHANNEL QUALITY INDICATOR IN A HIGH SPEED DOWNLINK PACKET ACCESS SYSTEM - Various embodiments are disclosed which predict the channel quality indicator (CQI) in High Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA). The accuracy of CQI is crucial for HSDPA performance. In some HSDPA systems the CQI may be as much as three (3) subframes stale. Accordingly, the prediction of CQI values is required in order to efficiently schedule data for transmission over the communication channel. Various embodiments disclose first order adaptive IIR filters which are significantly less complex than the finite impulse response (FIR) counterparts and achieve similar accuracy. By minimizing the mean squared error (MSE), an exact gradient descent algorithm may be used as well as two embodiment pseudolinear regression algorithms.06-03-2010
