20090186619 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REDUCING CALL ESTABLISHMENT DELAY IN A WIRELESS NETWORK - A system and method for reducing call establishment delay in wireless network is provided, in which a network node establishes a call to a wireless terminal controlled by an AP via a sever. The wireless terminal notifies the server of its listen interval. In the power saving mode, the wireless terminal wakes up every listen interval and listen the beacon to check whether any buffered packet for it. When the wireless terminal learns from the beacon that there are packets waiting, it communicates with the access point to retrieve them. The server records a listen time at which the wireless terminal will wake tip and listen to the AP based on the listen interval. When a network node calls the wireless terminal, the server buffers the request for a time interval based on the listen time, and then sends the request to the wireless terminal. | 07-23-2009 |

20090245150 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING IDLE MODE OF A MOBILE NODE WITH MULTIPLE INTERFACES - A method for controlling a first interface and a second interface installed on a mobile node is provided, wherein the mobile node communicates with a first access network (AN) through the first interface and communicates with a second AN through the second interface. The method comprises following steps. A first IP address is acquired through the first interface and the first AN for accessing a service network (SN). A second IP address is acquired through the second interface and the second AN for accessing the SN. The first interface is then selected as an awake interface. The second bridging node is directed to create and cache binding information indicating a binding of the second IP address to the first IP address. The second interface is turned off after the binding information is successfully created and cached on the second bridging node. | 10-01-2009 |
20090254528 | DATA INQUIRY SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THREE-DIMENSIONAL LOCATION-BASED IMAGE, VIDEO, AND INFORMATION - This invention discloses a data inquiry system for three-dimensional location-based image, video, and information, which comprises a client device and a remote server. The client device provides space parameters and lens parameters to the remote server through a transmission module. The remote server determines a space inquiry range by the space parameter and lens parameter, inquires an object data of an object space position parameter at the space inquiry range, shows the object data in an image data displayed by the client device to facilitate users to identify the desired viewing object, and further inquires the object data and related image and/or video data. | 10-08-2009 |
20110069677 | Systems and Methods for Handoff in Wireless Network - Methods performed by a mobile node (MN) in a secured network for handoff of communication from a serving access point (AP) to a target AP are provided. In a bounded delay channel switching (BDCS) method, the MN periodically switches between a first channel and one of multiple other channels during handoff, utilizes the first channel to transmit/receive packets to/from a corresponding node (CN) via the serving AP and utilizes one of the other channels to perform the handoff procedure to the target AP. In a dual-MAC switching (DMS) method, the MN employs a first MAC (medium access control) address to transmit/receive packets to/from the serving AP and a second MAC address to perform the handoff procedure to the target AP. The BDCS and DMS methods may be used concurrently, and may be used in a secured network that complies with, e.g., the IEEE 802.11, IEEE 802.1x or IEEE 802.11i plus IEEE 802.11f standards. | 03-24-2011 |
20120004871 | POWER MONITORING DEVICE FOR IDENTIFYING STATE OF ELECTRIC APPLIANCE AND POWER MONITORING METHOD THEREOF - A power monitoring device for identifying the state of an electric appliance based on user feedbacks and a power monitoring method thereof are provided. The power monitoring device includes a measurement module, a variation detection and search module, and an electric appliance signature database established based on user feedbacks. When the measurement module detects a variation of a power consumption feature, the variation detection and search module searches the electric appliance signature database according to the variation to obtain electric appliances similar to the variation and the states thereof. A user contributes data to the electric appliance signature database by confirming the search result, or selecting the correct electric appliance and the state thereof. When the user confirms the search result, the power monitoring device establishes an association between the electric appliance and its electric appliance signatures and updates the electric appliance signature database. | 01-05-2012 |
20130297259 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF APPROPRIATE SERVICES DETECTION FOR A SMART BUILDING - A system and method of appropriate services detection for a smart building are disclosed in the present invention. The invention may select appropriate services for a house or a building. After a user lives in a smart building with the system of the present invention for a period of time, the system uses the service gateway to collect and analyze environment information and appliance information so as to find relationship within appliances, sensors and actuators. Thus the cloud service platform selects appropriate services for the building to avoid downloading or installing an inappropriate service by a user. Further the cloud service platform may suggest a user buying additional equipment for matching the requirement of a service. The system of the present invention may learn a relationship of devices; locate positions of devices; and automatically collect state data of appliances to identify the appliances. | 11-07-2013 |
20150149130 | POWER CONSUMPTION PREDICTION APPARATUS, METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM THEREOF - A power consumption prediction apparatus, method, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium thereof are provided. The power consumption prediction apparatus receives a plurality of power consumption data of an appliance, wherein the power consumption data have a temporal sequence. Each power consumption datum includes a recorded status and a recorded time length, wherein each recorded status is one of a plurality operation statuses of the appliance. The power consumption prediction apparatus calculates an average operation time length of each operation status according to the recorded statuses and the recorded time lengths and calculates at least one transferring probability of each operation status according to the temporal sequence and the power consumption data. Each transferring probability is the probability of entering into a target status from a source status, wherein the source status is one of the operation statuses and the target status is one of the operation statuses. | 05-28-2015 |
