CELLULAR API FOR SATELLITE CONFIGURATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240188031 titled 'CELLULAR API FOR SATELLITE CONFIGURATIONS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a system where a user equipment (UE) receives satellite ephemeris information from a server and calculates satellite parameters to control the operation of a software application that uses a data service provided by the satellite.

  • The UE calculates satellite parameters based on the received satellite ephemeris information.
  • The UE controls the software application by adjusting its operation according to the calculated satellite parameters.
  • The software application requests satellite ephemeris information from the UE via an API.
  • The UE provides the software application with a representation of the satellite parameters in response to the request.
  • The software application adjusts its operation based on the received representation of the satellite parameters.

Potential Applications: - Satellite communication systems - Location-based services - Navigation systems

Problems Solved: - Efficient utilization of satellite data services - Improved accuracy of satellite-based applications

Benefits: - Enhanced performance of software applications utilizing satellite data - Real-time adjustments based on satellite parameters

Potential Commercial Applications: - Mobile navigation apps - Fleet tracking systems - Emergency response services

Possible Prior Art: - GPS devices that calculate satellite parameters for navigation purposes

Questions: 1. How does the system ensure the security and privacy of the satellite ephemeris information being transmitted between the server and the UE? 2. Are there any limitations to the accuracy of the calculated satellite parameters that could affect the operation of the software application?

Frequently Updated Research: - Research on optimizing satellite data utilization in software applications for improved performance and efficiency.


Original Abstract Submitted

a ue receives satellite ephemeris information from a server server and calculates one or more satellite parameters for at least one satellite based on the satellite ephemeris information. the ue controls, based on the one or more satellite parameters, operation of a software application that utilizes a data service provided via the at least one satellite. calculating satellite parameters can include calculating one or more satellite parameters at an api of the ue, and controlling operation of a software application can include receiving, at the api, a request for satellite ephemeris information from the software application, providing, by the api, a representation of the one or more satellite parameters to the software application in response to the request, and adjusting, at the software application, an operation of the software application based on the received representation of the one or more satellite parameters.
