TL;DR: A preferred contact group centric interface for a communication device can be used to facilitate communications by a user as mentioned in this paper, which can be arranged to activate from a user's "home page" on the display, from an idle screen that is accessed after a timeout period expires, or any other appropriate mechanism that activates the preferred contact groups centric experience.
Patent
Eyepiece with uniformly illuminated reflective display
Ralph F. Osterhout,John D. Haddick,Robert Michael Lohse,John N. Border,Gregory D. Miller,Ross W. Stovall +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an eyepiece includes a mechanical frame adapted to secure a lens and an image source facility above the lens, which includes an LED, a planar illumination facility and a reflective display.
Patent

Patent
Bi-directional wireless detection system
TL;DR: In this article, a system consisting of a detector, a programmable controller, and a network is described for detecting at least one event of interest, where the user can control the detector.
Patent
Interactive traffic display and trip planner
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a traffic information system having servers that makes traffic data, images and video clips available to client devices in a common format that is independent of the format used within any particular public highway monitoring system that supplies the raw media elements.
Patent
Determining the geographical location from which an emergency call originates in a packet-based communications network
TL;DR: In this paper, the location of the emergency caller is determined by entities within a packet-based network without the need for modification of existing emergency services network infrastructure, which is solved by enabling the geographical location of an emergency caller to be determined.
Patent
System and method for providing wireless telephony over a packet-switched network
Kim Phuc Vo,George Foti,Hung Tran,Jean-Francois Bertrand,Bartosz Balazinski,Francis Lupien,Zeng-Jun Xiang,Yang Lu +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a system and method of providing an integrated wireless telecommunications network including a cellular network portion (104) and a packet-switched network portion(108).
Patent
Capacity enhancement for multi-code CDMA with integrated services through quality of services and admission control
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method for estimating the capacity of a CDMA carrier with both voice and data users using an interference-based analysis of the reverse link, in which several codes are allocated to a single high-speed data user for parallel transmission.
