Patents by Inventor CHRISTOPHER YEATTS

CHRISTOPHER YEATTS has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11937339
    Abstract: A Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) device can include identification information disposed on an exterior surface of the FWA device. The FWA device can be configured to receive over a local communication network from a mobile device, provisioning information associated with the FWA device based on the identification information and install the provisioning information in a memory unit. The FWA device can establish cellular connectivity with a network base station based on the provisioning information. The provisioning information can be obtained by the mobile device scanning the identification information, providing the identification information to a server, and receiving the provisioning information from the server based on the identification information.

  • Patent number: 11539826
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for effectuating a self-installation application that may be utilized by end users of 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) devices, installation professionals, etc. to optimally locate and position/orient a 5G FWA device relative to an installation environment. Various guidance can be provided to a user depending on the user's level of experience or familiarity with installation of such devices. Calculations can be executed to determine performance of a 5G FWA device depending on its location/position/orientation relative to elements or structures or obstructions that may impact its ability to effectively connect to/obtain service from a serving cell or network infrastructure.

  • Publication number: 20220286917
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for 5G service management in a multi-dwelling unit, including updating a FWA device and/or the switch to create further specialized devices for the network. For example, the FWA device can obtain service to the 5G network from a 5G small cell (e.g., gNodeB, base stations, etc.) and then determine throughput or 5G Quality Of Services (QoS) for each home GW or AP of the multi-dwelling unit. Software agents or applications may reside on various locations, including the FWA device/modem, switch, cloud (e.g., local cloud, central cloud, etc.), and home GW/APs to determine bandwidth and QoS provided to each AP using traffic shaping algorithm. Alternative embodiments may include: (1) integrating with a billing system of the service provider (e.g., ISP, etc.) where the FWA device can transmit data used via the 5G communication network or (2) the FWA device acts as a virtual carrier.

  • Publication number: 20220217547
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for effectuating self-installation and device management that may be utilized by end user of 5G Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) devices, installation professionals, mobile network operators, etc. to optimally locate and position/orient a 5G FWA device relative to an installation environment, as well as subsequently manage the 5G FWA device. Various guidance can be provided to a user depending on the user's level of experience or familiarity with installation of such devices. Calculations can be executed to determine performance of a 5G FWA device depending on its location/position/orientation relative to elements or structures or obstructions that may impact its ability to effectively connect to/obtain service from a serving cell or network infrastructure. For example, a heat map can be generated to assist with optimal 5G FWA device installation.
