    Abstract: A communication device detects sound with a microphone to produce a sound signal representative of the sound and searches the sound signal for unique inaudible sound signatures associated with a group identifier. Each sound signature identifies a respective communication device. Each sound signature is in an audible frequency band but masked to be imperceptible. If any of the sound signatures are determined to be present in the sound signal, the communication device selects one based on predetermined criteria associated with the group identifier.

    Abstract: Embodiments include detecting an increase in delay of a flow assigned to a first queue of a network device, where the increase is sufficient to cause the flow rate of the flow to decrease if the flow is delay-sensitive. Embodiments further include determining whether an amount of bandwidth consumed by the flow decreases sufficiently after the increase is detected, and assigning the flow to a second queue based, at least in part, on determining the amount of bandwidth consumed by the flow does not decrease sufficiently. Specific embodiments include evaluating a series of two or more bandwidth measurements of the flow according to a bandwidth reduction measure to determine whether the amount of bandwidth consumed by the flow decreases by sufficiently. More specific embodiments include the first queue being configured to receive delay-sensitive flows and the second queue being configured to receive delay-insensitive nice flows.

    Abstract: A first endpoint generates an acoustic spread spectrum signal including a pilot sequence and a data sequence representing a token synchronized to the pilot sequence, transmits the acoustic spread spectrum signal, and records a transmit time at which the acoustic spread spectrum signal is transmitted. A receive time at which a second endpoint received the acoustic spread spectrum signal transmitted by the first endpoint is received from the second endpoint along with an indication of a second token as recovered from the received acoustic spread spectrum signal by the second endpoint. A separation distance between the first endpoint and the second endpoint is computed based on a time difference between the transmit time and the receive time. The first endpoint is paired with the second endpoint when the token matches the second token and the computed distance is less than a threshold distance.

    Abstract: In a transmit method, a set of data eigenvectors that are based on a Prometheus Orthonormal Set (PONS) code construction and orthogonal to each other are stored, wherein the data eigenvectors are mapped to unique multi-bit words. A pilot sequence representing a pilot eigenvector that is based on the PONS code construction and orthogonal to each of the data eigenvectors is generated. Input data are grouped into multi-bit words and data eigenvectors among the data eigenvectors are selected based on the multi-bit words. A spread data sequence including the selected data eigenvectors and that is synchronized to the pilot sequence is generated. An acoustic signal including the synchronized pilot sequence and the spread data sequence is generated. The acoustic signal is transmitted.
