Filed:

Jun 19, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/142482

Inventors:

Gaurav Lamba - Los Altos CA, US
Kirk A. Burroughs - Alamo CA, US
Bryan R. Cook - Oakland CA, US

Assignee:

QUALCOMM Incorporated - San Diego CA

International Classification:

H04W 4/00
H04W 24/00

US Classification:

4554321, 4554322, 4554323, 4554561, 4554562, 4554563

Abstract:

Techniques to support location services for a roaming mobile station are described. The mobile station may communicate with a serving mobile switching center (MSC) in a serving network. A roaming service provider (RSP) network may map an actual MSC identity (MSCID) of the serving MSC to a generic MSCID and may provide the generic MSCID to a home network. A home mobile positioning center (H-MPC) may map the generic MSCID to an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a mapping server within the RSP network and may send a location request message containing a mobile station identity (MSID) to the mapping server. The mapping server may determine a serving mobile positioning center (S-MPC) based on the MSID and may forward the message to the S-MPC. The mapping server may also receive a location response message from the S-MPC and may forward the message to the H-MPC.

International Classification:

H04R 5/02

US Classification:

381300

Abstract:

A method for reducing phase differences varying with frequency occurring at certain listening positions with respect to loudspeakers reproducing respective ones of multiple sound channels in a listening space, the phase differences occurring in a sequence of frequency bands in which the phase differences alternate between being predominantly in-phase and predominantly out-of-phase, comprises adjusting the phase in multiple frequency bands in which the multiple sound channels are out-of-phase at such listening positions. Such adjustment of phase includes the frequency bands in which the width of comb filtering pass bands and notches resulting from phase differences at such listening positions would be greater than or commensurate with the critical band width if the phase adjustment were not applied. The listening space may be the interior of a vehicle.

International Classification:

H04R 5/00
H04R 5/02

US Classification:

381 17, 381309

Abstract:

Method and devices for providing surround audio signals are provided. Surround audio signals are received and are binaurally filtered by at least one filter unit. In some embodiments, the input surround audio signals are also processed by at least one equalizing unit. In those embodiments, the binau-rally filtered signals and the equalized signals are combined to form output signals.

International Classification:

G06F 3/0346
G06F 3/01

Abstract:

Method, apparatus, and systems for roll angle estimation for an input/gesture device (IGD) are disclosed. The method includes estimating a first axis vector of the input/gesture device (IGD) relative to the surface of the mobile device (MD), as a first frame of reference, using readings from a first type of sensor; and estimating the first axis vector of the IDG relative to a different, second frame of reference using a gyroscope integration of readings from the 3-axis gyroscope. The method further includes aligning the first axis vector of the IDG in the first frame of reference with the first axis vector of the IDG in the second frame of reference; minimizing a change in the alignment of the first axis vectors between the first frame of reference and the second frame of reference; and determining the roll angle of the IDG relative to the surface of the MD.
