Koninklijke KPN (KKPNY) USPTO patents

A system and method are provided for generating an output video, such as a video panorama, from a plurality of video streams representing different recordings of a scene.

The invention relates to a wireless access telecommunications system comprising at least an SA-cell with which a terminal in an active mode is configured to have a data connection and an LA-cell on which the terminal in an idle mode is configured to camp.

Systems and methods are provided for generating and rendering an enhanced audiovisual recording of a user, which may be used for multiuser communication, e.g., in Virtual Reality.

A method of establishing a connection between a remote User Equipment, UE, and a telecommunication network via a relay capable UE, wherein said telecommunication network comprises a core network and an access network, and wherein said connection is established using a Remote Radio Access Bearer between the remote UE, via a relay capable UE, via an access node in the access network, and the core network.

The invention is concerned with insertion of secondary content in a time slot of primary content.

The invention relates to a system for receiving an interest message.

A method of encoding video data into a bitstream comprising: determining from the plurality of video blocks of a video frame of a first resolution a current block and one or more reference blocks including reference samples for predicting original samples of the current block; determining predicted samples of the current block based on a downsampling scheme, the determining comprising computing samples of a first low-resolution block of a second resolution that is lower than the first resolution, and predicting samples of one or more second low-resolution blocks of the second resolution based on the samples of the first low resolution block, the samples of the first low-resolution block and the one or more second low-resolution blocks defining predicted samples of the current Block; and, determining residual samples of a residual block based on original samples of the current block and the predicted samples of the current block; transforming the samples of the residual block into a bitstream; and, embedding metadata associated with the current block in the bitstream for signalling a decoder apparatus that the predicted samples of the current block are based on the downsampling scheme.

A method and processor system are provided for adapting an acoustic rendering of an audio source to a visual rendering of an image-based object.

Some embodiments are directed to a blockchain management device (100) configured to distribute a new block of a secondary blockchain to at least one further blockchain management device that manages the secondary blockchain, and to distribute a transaction to at least one blockchain management device that manages a primary blockchain, said transaction comprising an identification of a set of transactions in the new block.

A system and computer-implemented method are provided for controlling network access of customer-premises equipment which may be connected via a last mile access line to a transport network.

The invention relates to a method for information transmission in a machine-to-machine telecommunications network and a machine-to-machine telecommunications network.

In a communication network, a network function may be provided for controlling Information Centric Networking (ICN) protocol-based traffic flow between a set of user equipment (UE).

A processor system processes image data for rendering a virtual environment for a user present in a real environment.

Stream control methods and devices are provided for use in a network for transferring a video stream from a video server to a video client via a distribution chain of network resources.

A method of establishing a signalling connection between a remote User Equipment, UE, and a telecommunication network via a relay capable UE, wherein said relay capable UE has established user plane connectivity to an intermediate node comprised by said telecommunication network and is arranged for supporting establishment of said connection for said remote UE, said method comprising the steps of receiving a registration message over said user plane forwarded by said relay capable UE and originating from said remote UE for registering said remote UE to said telecommunication network, forwarding said registration message to a Mobility Management Function comprised by said telecommunication network and receiving a registration accept message from said Mobility Management Function for accepting registration of said remote UE to said telecommunication network, and forwarding said registration accept message to said remote UE via said relay capable UE.

The present invention enables a network operator to select a gateway that provides desirable operational parameters to access a network node function in a network node requested by a client.

A system and method are provided for determining a size of a virtual object in a virtual environment.
