First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method to calculate a flighted schedule campaign reach comprising:
- selecting two media components from a plurality of media components;
calculating a first flighted schedule campaign reach based on the two media components; and
repeating the selecting and calculating using the first flighted schedule campaign reach and a third media component from the plurality of media components to calculate a second flighted schedule campaign reach associated with the first, second, and third media components.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus to compute reach and frequency values for flighted schedules are disclosed. An example method includes selecting two media components from a plurality of media components, and calculating a first flighted schedule campaign reach based on the two media components. The example method also includes repeating the selecting and calculating using the first flighted schedule campaign reach and a third media component from the plurality of media components to calculate a second flighted schedule campaign reach associated with the first, second, and third media components.

11. An apparatus to calculate a flighted schedule campaign reach comprising:
-
a collector to collect reach values associated with a first and second media components from a plurality of media components; a duplicator to calculate reach value differences of the collected reach values to estimate exposure duplication; and a reach calculator to iteratively calculate the flighted schedule campaign reach based on the reach value differences and another media component from the collector. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method to calculate a flighted schedule campaign comprising:
-
selecting first and a second media components from a plurality of media components; calculating a first combined reach of the first and second media components; fitting the first combined reach to a distribution model; selecting a third media component from the plurality of media components; and calculating a second combined reach based on the first combined reach and the third media component. - View Dependent Claims (18)

19. A method to calculate a flighted schedule campaign comprising:
-
identifying a first media component from a plurality of media components, the first media component comprising a first shortest time period; identifying a second media component from the plurality of media components, the second media component comprising a second shortest time period; combining the first and second media components to calculate a reach value for each of the first and second time periods; calculating a first flighted schedule campaign reach based on the combined media components; and fitting a model parameter to the first flighted schedule campaign.
