摘要： A method and apparatus for altering a media activity are disclosed. The provision (101) of a dynamic media activity to a recipient user is enhanced by the dynamic acquisition (102) of information regarding an ambient condition of the user's environment and the use (104) of the information to dynamically alter the media activity in a manner that correlates with the information. An apparatus (200) embodying the method comprises a dynamic media activity engine (201) operably linked to a memory (202) having information regarding at least one ambient condition of the user and to a user interface (205). Information regarding ambient conditions may be obtained by an ambient condition detector (203) linked to the memory (202) or by means of a wireless interface (204).

摘要： At lease one operating condition associated with an end user (120) of a network is obtained. Based upon the operating condition, a high bit-rate media feed being made to the end user (120) is halted. Thereafter, a lower bit rate media feed may be supplied to the end user in place of the high bit-rate media feed.

摘要： A system and method reduce latency involved in delivery of content to a handheld device. A sample channel comprises a plurality of content segments. Each content segment comprises recent content from one channel of a plurality of channels available for request by a subscriber. The sample channel is received by a handheld device and is not requested by the subscriber. The plurality of content segments are stored in a memory associated with the device. Upon detecting a request from the subscriber to view a specified channel, the content segment corresponding to the specified channel is located in memory and displayed on the device. A request is made for subsequent content from the specified channel, the subsequent content starting at or before the end of the content segment. Playback of the subsequent content is then initiated such that the subsequent content starts at a time when the content segment ends.

摘要： Various embodiments are described for establishing a group call session serially. After receiving a serial group call request from a remote unit (101), fixed network equipment (FNE) (201) selects a first subset of members (260) from the targeted group (250) of units and signals those members to join the group call session. Various techniques for selecting the first subset may be employed depending on what system benefits are desired. A second subset of members (270) from the targeted group of units is also selected and signaled to join the session. This second subset may be used to invite additional units in order to achieve a maximum number of group participants. Alternatively, the second subset may be used to invite a different unit (or units) to participate. This can be triggered by a user request to invite another subset to the group session, as could occur when the user is not able to resolve the particular matter at-hand with the group members of the first subset.

摘要： A network access node (eNodeB for example) changing status from active to deactivated sends a message to a location server indicating the changed status. The location server collects from uplink messages indications of which of a plurality of cells have a deactivated status and stores this information in its local memory. Then the location server utilizes the stored indications to ensure that all cells in a list provided to a user equipment for location assistance will have an active status. In various embodiments: the message is sent only when the status is changed for energy saving purposes; a list of cells included in a location request message may have some deactivated cells so the location server sends a message to the eNodeB to activate deactivated cells in the list which is done prior to providing the list to a user equipment; and a partial-activation for a probing/beacon mode is disclosed.

摘要： Link speed fluctuation reduction can be useful in a variety of communication systems. Such smoothing may have various benefits and may be achieved in various ways. For example, a policy and charging rules function can be leveraged to avoid repeated transfers of a same section of over-the-top video. A method can include detecting, for a link, a link traffic condition above a predetermined threshold. The method can also include estimating link speed to obtain an initial link speed value. When the detected link traffic condition is above a predetermined threshold, the method can further include limiting fluctuation of the link speed to within a threshold amount of the initial link speed value. The method can additionally include periodically re-estimating the recently achieved link speed as an updated link speed value and limiting the fluctuation based on the updated link speed value.
