Abstract: In some embodiments, the systems and methods obtain parameters for a set of mobile devices (or, other items), such as volume information, price information, and perceived value information for each mobile device within the set of mobile devices. The set of mobile devices may be a tier of substitute mobile devices that each affect consumer demand of other mobile devices within the set of mobile devices. The systems and methods may then determine substitution factors for the obtained parameters associated with the set of mobile devices, generate a substitution forecast for the set of mobile devices that is based on the substitution factors determined for the obtained parameters associated with the mobile devices, and determine a consensus forecast for the set of mobile devices that adjusts a baseline forecast for the demand of the set of mobile devices using the substitution forecast.

Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing one or more cameras at a mobile device to assist in the implementing anti-counterfeit measures for digital barcodes are disclosed. For example, the systems and methods use a mobile device's front camera to capture photographs (or images) at a certain frequency (e.g., capture a photograph every 0.20 seconds). The systems and methods then scan the captured photograph and retrieve relevant image data (for example, scan image vertically and utilize image data of every fourth pixel). The systems and methods compare certain properties of the retrieved image data with properties of one or more comparison light sources. When the systems and methods detect a match (for example, a match within certain threshold parameters), they identify a barcode among a set of barcodes and display the identified barcode at a display screen of the mobile device.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, method, and manufacture for generating backup power in a wireless communications system such as a wireless communications service base station. The system includes a communications interface, a primary power interface, a generator, rectifiers, and a battery circuit. During normal operation, the communications interface is powered from the primary power interface. During a power outage, the communications interface is powered from either the generator or the battery circuit. The generator is cycled on and off during power outages to charge the battery circuit while conserving fuel. To decrease rectification loss, rectifiers are run near full load while rectifying the generator output.

Abstract: Systems and methods for authorizing drones with access to airborne fulfillment centers (AFCs) and other warehouse facilities are described. For example, the systems and methods perform multiple authentication processes, including a physical authentication process and a virtual or electronic authentication process, when determining whether a drone is authorized to access an AFC. Once authorized, the drone may access the AFC to pick up and/or deliver packages or other products, to recharge, to seek repairs, to be housed, and so on.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining network congestion (e.g., reduced or low average user throughput with telecommunications networks, such as LTE networks, are described. The systems and methods described herein facilitate the identification and/or prediction of congestion at cell sites, which may enable telecommunications networks to prevent and/or remedy current or future occurrences of congestion at cell sites within their networks.

Abstract: A voice user interface (VUI) may be deployed for accessing data that are stored in databases of a telecommunications network. A voice command received at a voice interface device connected to a telecommunications network may be converted into a persistent data representation via a speech interpretation engine. The persistent data representation is sent to an intent mapping service that maps persistent data representations to intermediate command representations. In turn, a command interpreter of the telecommunications network may receive the intermediate command representation from the intent mapping service. The command interpreter may translate the intermediate command representation into a database function command via a command interpreter of the telecommunications network. The database function command may be executed on data stored in a database of the telecommunications network via a database interface to generate at a synthesized speech output presented by the voice interface device or a visual output presented by a display device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and network topology for network address translation (NAT) are disclosed. In some embodiments, a cluster of NAT devices shares at least one backup NAT device configured to back up all or some of the NAT devices in the cluster. Each NAT device, including the backup NAT device, advertises its status at a regular interval to a router. If the router determines that an active NAT device is no longer advertising its status, the router can send data to the backup NAT. In some embodiments, the router routes traffic to active and backup devices based on networking protocols such as Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and/or Open Shortest Path First (OSPF). The router can also route data to NAT devices using a round-robin algorithm.

Abstract: A coverage model is generated to forecast network coverage robustness for vertically layered 3-dimensional sections of airspace above an area. Network configuration data for multiple base stations of a wireless communication network located in an area are received. Environmental data that includes information on natural and manmade features in the area are received. The airspace above the area into a plurality of vertically layered 3-dimensional sections is segregated. A coverage model is generated based at least on the network configuration data and the environmental data for predicting network coverage of the wireless communication network in the 3-dimensional sections in the airspace above the area.
