Patent number: 9036643Abstract: A method for establishing a virtual channel between network devices is disclosed. In the case of a local network device establishing a virtual channel with a remote network device, a virtual channel request message is sent from the local network device to the remote network device. A virtual channel acknowledgement message and a remote capability list are received and a virtual channel resume message and a local capability list are sent. The virtual channel is then enabled. In the case of a remote network device establishing a virtual channel with a local network device, a virtual channel request message is received from a local network device by a remote network device. A virtual channel acknowledgement message and a remote capability list are sent and a virtual channel resume message and a local capability list are received. The virtual channel is then enabled.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2013Date of Patent: May 19, 2015Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Shiri Kadambi, Shekhar Ambe, Mohan Kalkunte, Sandeep Relan, Allan Christie, Uri Elzur, Martin Lund, Daniel Talayco

Patent number: 8863205Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and system for multimedia viewership surveying of an end-user's set-top-box (STB). The multimedia information may be received from at least one satellite via a satellite receiver. The satellite receiver may convey the multimedia information to a service provider location. At the service provider location, a content server may receive a request for transmission of multimedia information. The request may be validated to determine whether the request is authorized. The method may also include monitoring channel requests, and channel viewing times. The method may also include recording and/or logging the channel requests and information associated with the requested program in a user log. The user log may be evaluated to facilitate targeted marketing of end-user subscribers based upon demonstrated television viewing habits.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2004Date of Patent: October 14, 2014Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Sandeep Relan, Brajabandhu Mishra, Rajendra Khare

Patent number: 8565240Abstract: A method for selectively controlling the flow of data through a network device is discussed. The network device has a plurality of ports, with each port of the plurality of ports having a plurality of priority queues. Congestion at one priority queue of the plurality of priority queues is detected and a virtual channel message is sent to other network devices connected to the network device causing data destined for the one priority queue to be halted. After the congestion at the one priority queue has abated, a virtual channel resume message is sent to the other network devices.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2011Date of Patent: October 22, 2013Assignee: Broadcom CorporationInventors: Shiri Kadambi, Shekhar Ambe, Mohan Kalkunte, Sandeep Relan
