Abstract:
Before a vehicle is parked, a signal is received from at least one of a base station and a location determination system. It is determined when the signal fails to meet at least one predetermined criteria. When the signal fails to meet the at least one predetermined criteria, a warning message is formed and presented to an operator of the vehicle.
Abstract:
A system for providing access to a telematics service provider has a network access device and an antenna in communication with the network access device. The antenna provides wireless communication between the processor and the telematics service provider. A processor of the network access device is configured to send an equipment identifier and a subscriber identifier of a network access device to the a telematics service provider, send an equipment identifier of the network access device and the subscriber identifier of a secondary device to the telematics service provider, and determine if data received from the telematics service provider is to be processed by the processor of the network access device or the secondary device.
Abstract:
A system and method for communicating between a controller and a device is provided: The controller communicates with the device over a communication link. The controller shutting off a power supply that is connected to the communication link, for example, due to inactivity parameters. The device generating a wake up signal and transmitting the wake up signal from the device to the controller while the power supply is shut off.

Abstract:
Jamming is detected as occurring to communications associated with at least one electronic device disposed at a vehicle. Responsive to detecting the jamming, an indication is transmitted from the vehicle to a base station informing the base station that jamming is occurring. Communications are subsequently conducted between the base station and the vehicle on at least one predetermined and prearranged communication channel.
Abstract:
Communications are maintained between a base station and a stolen vehicle tracking (SVT) module disposed with a vehicle. At the SVT module at the vehicle, it is determined whether jamming is occurring with communications between the SVT module and the base station and a temperature is measured at the SVT module. When jamming is detected, an adjustment is determined for a frequency of an oscillator of the SVT module and the adjustment is based at least in part upon the temperature. The frequency of operation of an oscillator is adjusted according to the adjustment. A message is transmitted to the base station according to the adjusted frequency.
Abstract:
The jamming of a radio frequency (RF) transmission after the vehicle is parked is detected. When the jamming is detected, an emergency message is broadcast on a first random access channel (RACH) associated with the vehicle according to a last known broadcast channel (BCH). When the jamming is detected, at least one last known neighbor serving cell from a stored data structure is determined, and the emergency message is broadcast on one or more second RACHs associated with each of the at least one last known neighbor serving cells.
Abstract:
Measurement of circulating ST2 and/or IL-33 concentrations is useful for the prognostic evaluation of subjects, in particular for the prediction of adverse clinical outcomes, e.g., mortality, and the detection of severe disease.
Abstract:
A multi-band communication device with a front end antenna switch module having a reduced number of control inputs is disclosed. Control over an antenna switch modules occurs via control inputs from a controller or processor to enable operation over multiple bands or under numerous different standards. In one embodiment an input/output port is configured to connect to an antenna and a diplexer is connected to the input/output port. In this embodiment, the diplexer is configured to pass outgoing signals to the antenna and direct incoming signal from the antenna to one of two or more paths. One or more switches are connected to the diplexer such that the one or more switches are responsive to two or fewer control signals. The switch are configured to selectively enable operation of the antenna switch module into transmit or receive mode. A filter bank may also be provided as part of the module.
Abstract:
A power control loop for a power amplifier is disclosed. Embodiments of the power control loop include deriving a secondary control signal. The secondary control signal may be used to control a gain applied to the power signal in the power control loop and to control a supply current or voltage delivered to a power amplifier.
