Patent number: 9648110Abstract: One or more devices are provided that receive a request, from a client device, to connect to an operator network. The request is received at a request time. The one or more devices obtain information identifying a connect time at which the client device is permitted to connect to the operator network and determine whether the request time matches the connect time. If the request time is determined to be different than the connect time, the one or more devices reject the request to connect to the operator network based on the request time being determined to be different than the connect time. If the request time is determined to match the connect time, the one or more devices establish a communication session between the client device and the operator network based on the request time being determined to match the connect time.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2014Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignees: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc., Cellco PartnershipInventors: Lalit R. Kotecha, Jyothi Keshavdas

Patent number: 9548993Abstract: A security device may be configured to receive information regarding traffic that has been outputted by a particular user device; and compare the information regarding the traffic to security information. The security information may include device behavior information, traffic policy information, or device policy information. The security device may determine, based on the comparing, that a security threat exists with regard to the traffic; and take, based on determining that the security threat exists, remedial action with respect to the traffic. Taking the remedial action may include preventing the traffic from being forwarded to an intended destination associated with the traffic, providing an alert, regarding the security threat, to the particular user device, or providing an alert, regarding to the security threat, to another device.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2013Date of Patent: January 17, 2017Assignees: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc., Cellco PartnershipInventors: Steven R. Rados, Lalit R. Kotecha, Jyothi Keshavdas, Arda Aksu, Thomas W. Haynes

Patent number: 9544020Abstract: A mobile device includes a transceiver for performing wireless communication, a microprocessor for operating said mobile device, a near field communications (NFC) system for performing wireless communication independent of the transceiver and at a lower amount of power than said transceiver, a contactless front end included in the NFC system for receiving or transmitting signals with an NFC capable device, and a pairing system implemented in the microprocessor for pairing one NFC capable device with another NFC capable device. The pairing system configures the mobile device to receive a tag or a device driver from one of the NFC capable devices that are to be paired with each other; and transfers the tag or a device driver obtained from the tag to the other of the NFC capable devices in order to enable interoperation between the two NFC capable devices.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2013Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignees: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc., Cellco PartnershipInventors: Jyothi Keshavdas, Lalit R.

Patent number: 9392483Abstract: A system may include a machine-to-machine (M2M) gateway. The M2M gateway may receive M2M information associated with an M2M application. The M2M gateway may mark the M2M information to create marked information. The marked information may be created to allow the marked information to be identified as M2M information. The M2M gateway may provide the marked information. The marked information may be provided via a wired common public radio interface (CPRI) connection to a base station to permit the base station to identify the marked information as M2M information and provide the marked information to a management device based on identifying the marked information as M2M information.Type: GrantFiled: May 14, 2014Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignees: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc., Cellco PartnershipInventors: Jyothi Keshavdas, Satish S.

Patent number: 9277371Abstract: A reporting server receives reports on content items being accessed by a plurality of UE devices through a first multicast/broadcast single frequency network (MBSFN). The reporting server determines, for each content item being accessed, which of the UE devices is accessing the content item. The UE devices are then grouped by the accessed content items such that at least one content item is accessed by a first group of UE devices and not accessed by a second group of UE devices. The reporting server then sends data representing the first and second groups to a broadcast video provisioning system (BVPS) with a recommendation to split the MBSFN into second and third MBSFNs. In another implementation, the reporting server receives reports from fourth and fifth MBSFNs and recommends joining the fourth and fifth MBSFNs to form a sixth MBSFN if broadcast bandwidth requirements are met.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2013Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignees: Cellco Partnership, Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Lalit R.

Patent number: 9232246Abstract: A reporting server receives reports on unicast and/or broadcast multimedia content items being accessed by respective user equipment (UE) devices through a network. The reporting server determines, for each multimedia content item, a number of UE devices that are accessing the multimedia content item and whether it is being unicast or broadcast. The reporting server ranks the multimedia content items by the number of UE devices accessing each item. In several disclosed examples, a broadcast video provisioning system switches unicast transmissions to broadcast transmissions based on the ranked list, based on this ranking and possibly on the available unicast and broadcast bandwidth.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2013Date of Patent: January 5, 2016Assignees: Cellco Partnership, Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Lalit R.

Patent number: 9220074Abstract: A device is configured to store target location information indicating an acceptable signal strength at a target location. The device may receive a signal emitted from a base station. The signal may be received at the target location. The device may measure the signal strength of the signal at the target location. The device may transmit a signal strength message including information based on the signal strength. The signal strength message may cause the base station to adjust a power with which signals are emitted from the base station such that the signals satisfy the acceptable signal strength at the target location.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2014Date of Patent: December 22, 2015Assignees: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc., Cellco PartnershipInventors: Sagiv Draznin, Arda Aksu, Mingxing S.
