Patent number: 10536863Abstract: A gateway turns encrypted PS data traffic on the Iub interface into clear IP packets so that WAN stream de-duplication and other optimization can be performed to eliminate the transfer of repetitive data across the Iub interface, thereby increasing the throughput between the NodeB and the RNC of the WCDMA network. The gateway pulls PS data traffic out from Iub without disturbing the signaling and CS traffic. The bifurcated PS data traffic is redirected to the GTP I/O port of the gateway where the stream de-duplication is applied. Deployment of the gateway is transparent to the WCDMA network. No network reconfiguration is required to deploy the gateway on the Iub interface.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2017Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Assignee: IDIRECT UK LIMITEDInventors: Michael Godley, Richard Lord, Edmond Higgins, QiMing Zhu, Siu Bun Chan, Ian Walter

Patent number: 9560468Abstract: A communication system comprises a remote optimization server and a central optimization server adapted to communicate with each via a backhaul network. The central optimization server communicates with core network elements for data delivery. The servers provide access to local data servers, manage backhaul links, perform data caching, and optimize transmission of data that needs to be back-hauled in order to reduce data transfer via the backhaul network in a manner which is transparent to users and to core network elements. The servers perform compression and protocol optimization. The remote optimization server comprises a HTTP accelerator which uses client and server side optimization functions to retrieve a bundle of resources associated with a request for base HTML, and maintains a set of persistent connections over which all HTTP traffic is carried.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2012Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: PARALLEL LIMITED, LLCInventors: Michael Fitzgerald, Guy Waugh, Richard Lord, Michael Godley, Christopher Young, Joseph Cahill, Tadhg Crotty, Edmond Higgins, Paul Davern, Noor Nashid Islam, Cormac John Sreenan, Ahmed Zahran

Patent number: 8437750Abstract: A mobile network comprises remote base transceiver station (BTS) nodes (3, 4) linked with a central base station controller (BSC) node (9). The latter is in turn linked with a mobile switching center (MSC, 10), a visitor location register (VLR, 11), and a home location register (HLR, 8). Mobile stations (2, MS-A, MS-B, and MS-C) are located in the cells of the BTSs (3, 4). The remote nodes (3, 4, 3(a), 4(a)) are connected to the central node BSC (9) over a remote backhaul satellite connection. Calls are routed locally while the central nodes continue to manage calls and services from central feature-rich and typically more reliable switches of a core network. This means that calls set up between subscribers on the same remote node get connected within the remote node but call supervision is still carried out by the central nodes. The features and services of the existing core network are preserved.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2006Date of Patent: May 7, 2013Assignee: Slieve Mish Inventions LimitedInventors: Michael Fitzgerald, Guy Waugh, Richard Lord, Michael Godley, Christopher Young, Liam Kenny, Ian Walter, Tadhg Crotty

Patent number: 7783288Abstract: A remote mobile network part (2, 11, 12) may be on an aircraft, a ship, or in a geographically remote location. It comprises a gateway (6) which communicates with a central gateway (9) via a satellite link. The two gateways (6, 9) together are a base station controller (BSC), the satellite link being used for BSC-internal communication. Such communication can be optimised to make best use of the limited bandwidth available on the satellite link.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2006Date of Patent: August 24, 2010Assignee: Slieve Mish Inventions LimitedInventors: Guy Waugh, Michael Fitzgerald, Christopher Young, Michael Godley, Richard Lord

Patent number: 7652568Abstract: Monitoring device modules (10) in containers on a ship are polled by a tracking proxy (12). Monitoring data is thus captured, and the proxy 12 can ascertain in real time that the correct group of containers is present. The proxy (12) also transmits higher-value report messages with relatively low bandwidth via a satellite communication system (13) to a gateway (15). The gateway (15) routes the messages on to various systems such as tracking centers. Also, the gateway (15) regularly polls and authenticates the distributed tracking proxies (12) within its group.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2006Date of Patent: January 26, 2010Assignee: Slieve Mish Inventions LimitedInventors: Guy Waugh, Michael Fitzgerald, Christopher Young, Michael Godley, Richard Lord

Patent number: 7356388Abstract: A radio interference avoidance system (1) has a processor in a detection system (11) which receives real time inputs from various sensors (12-16). The processor dynamically determines if a craft (for example, ship) movable network (19) is within an interference distance of a fixed network. It uses real time craft position data relative to fixed network position and also radiation characteristic data for both the movable (19) and fixed networks.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2006Date of Patent: April 8, 2008Assignee: Slieve Mish Inventions LimitedInventors: Guy Waugh, Michael Fitzgerald, Christopher Young, Michael Godley, Richard Lord, John Walsh, David Sharp

Publication number: 20060128431Abstract: A communication system comprises an adapter (10) having interfaces (25-27) linked with user device components (12). A terminal controller (29) dynamically associates the components in real time to provide mobile stations. Thus, passengers of an aircraft can insert SIM cards into conveniently-located readers (22) and use in-flight entertainment i/o devices to make and receive cellular calls. The adapter (10) also has a BTS emulator (30) for direct communication with a BSC (3) with non-wireless internal network communication. This avoids the need for a mobile station to BTS wireless link.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 8, 2006Publication date: June 15, 2006Inventors: Guy Waugh, Michael Fitzgerald, Patrick Scanlon, Liam Kenny, Richard Lord, Christopher Young, Michael Godley, Gregory Steinmetz-Herve
