Apparatus and method for using an intelligent network for analyzing an event external to a signaling network
11582352 · 2023-02-14 ·

A system and method in an intelligent network are provided for analyzing an event external to the intelligent network. A set of intelligent network subscribers is selected in a selected geographic area. Next, signal message data is obtained from a signaling network in the intelligent network, wherein the signal message data indicates status of subscribers in the set of intelligent network subscribers. External data related to the selected geographic area is obtained, wherein the external data is external to the intelligent network. The signal message data and the external data are then fused to produce synthetic data. In response to the synthetic data, an alert of an external event is produced. The alert can be graphically represented on a display.

Unsupervised learning of metric representations from slow features

A method of unsupervised learning of a metric representation and a corresponding system for a mobile device determines a metric position information for a mobile device from an environmental representation. The mobile device comprises at least one sensor for acquiring sensor data and an odometer system configured to acquire displacement data of the mobile device. An environmental representation is generated based on the acquired sensor data by applying an unsupervised learning algorithm. The mobile device moves along a trajectory and the displacement data and the sensor data are acquired while the mobile device is moving along the trajectory. A set of mapping parameters is calculated based on the environmental representation and the displacement data. A metric position estimation is determined based on a further environmental representation and the calculated set of mapping parameters.

11582578 · 2023-02-14 · ·

A control method implemented by a communication device. The control method includes: acquiring a current location and current capacities of a drone; selecting a destination point that can be reached by the drone according to the location and capacities thereof, the destination point being located in the coverage area of a point of access to a mobile communication network; and providing the drone with instructions specifying the destination point towards which the drone is to travel and communication operations to be carried out in connection with the mobile communication network. Once the instructions are obtained, the drone moves towards the destination point and performs the communication operation as soon as it reaches the destination point or as soon as the connection quality reaches a satisfying level.

Processing alarm signals

Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for processing alarm signals are presented. In some embodiments, a mobile device may be registered with a security system that is installed at a premises. Subsequently, an alarm trigger associated with the security system may be received.
