Patent number: 11880331Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate a testing of an unknown USB supply that is connected to a CPE (customer premise equipment) device to determine a current draw capacity of the USB supply. The CPE device may test the USB supply to determine whether the USB supply is capable of supplying a predetermined current. If the determination is made that the USB supply is not able to supply the predetermined current, an end-user may be instructed to plug an alternative PSU (power supply unit) into the CPE device, wherein the alternative PSU is capable of supplying the predetermined current to the CPE device. The CPE device may output an indication that an alternative PSU should be used via a graphics output to a display device through an HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) connection or via an LED indication using one or more LEDs at the CPE device.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2022Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: ARRIS ENTERPRISES LLCInventors: Antony J.

Patent number: 11882615Abstract: During operation, a radio node may provide, at a transmit time during a first time interval, a first instance of a keep-alive message to a computer. Then, the radio node may receive, at a receive time prior to a first instance of a transmit expire time, an instance of a keep-alive response from the computer, where the instance of the keep-alive response authorizes the radio node to transmit in a granted portion of the spectrum until a second instance of the transmit expire time has elapsed. Moreover, the radio node may determine, based at least in part on the receive time and the first instance of the transmit expire time, an updated transmit time. Next, the radio node may provide, at the updated transmit time, which is prior to the second instance of the transmit expire time, a second instance of the keep-alive message addressed to the computer.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2023Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: ARRIS Enterprises LLCInventors: Awaiz Khan, Ravi Sharma

Patent number: 11882224Abstract: A method for signing data such as software images is provided that uses modules executable by a generic client to sign hashes of the software images rather than the images themselves. The method avoids both the requirement for new or updated client software and the uploading of full software images to the signing system. This approach uses a generic client that requests and downloads processing modules from the signing system to perform the pre-processing operations in signing software images, as well as optionally for post-processing operations.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2021Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignee: ARRIS Enterprises LLCInventors: Tat Keung Chan, Ting Yao, Jason A.

Publication number: 20240022622Abstract: Techniques for efficient content delivery in an MABR system. Precisely, the disclosure recites a method comprising receiving, at an MABR client device, a manifest request from an ABR player, wherein the manifest request is initially redirected to the MABR client device by a rendezvous service upon updating the manifest request with a channel ID and an upstream CDN base information. The method further recites translating, by the MABR client device, the manifest request with a representation ID and obtaining a stream ID from the translated manifest request. The method further discloses performing look up in a cache for media content, requested in the translated manifest request, using the obtained stream ID.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 29, 2023Publication date: January 18, 2024Applicant: ARRIS Enterprises LLCInventors: Kanakendiran RAMACHANDIRAN, Varma L.

Patent number: 11876753Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a first signal that is sent in a first direction in a network. Communications in the network are full duplex communications in a same frequency band. The first signal is amplified in the first direction. The method trains a first echo canceller to cancel a first echo signal from the first signal where the first echo signal is received in a second direction. After training the first echo canceller, the trained first echo canceller is enabled. The method receives a second signal in the second direction that is sent in the second direction in the network. The second signal is amplified in the second direction. The method trains a second echo canceller to cancel a second echo signal received in the first direction from the second signal where the first echo canceller cancels the first echo signal that is received in the second direction.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2022Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: ARRIS Enterprises LLCInventors: Thomas J.

Patent number: 11872771Abstract: Non-standard, resin-infused fiber bundle includes localized regions of fibers having a sub-nominal amount of polymer resin positioned along its length. These regions function as “bending regions,” where the non-standard resin-infused fiber bundle can be readily deformed by virtue of the reduced amount of resin. The bending regions segregate the non-standard resin-infused fiber bundle into what is, effectively, discrete (smaller) segments of (standard) resin-infused fiber bundle. The ability to easily manipulate the non-standard, resin-infused fiber bundle via the bending regions is useful for creating fiber-bundle-based preforms, and preform charges (assemblages of fiber-bundle-based preforms).Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2020Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: ARRIS COMPOSITES INC.Inventors: Todd Pelman, Dylan Harper, Christopher Bender, Riley Reese, J.

Patent number: 11870838Abstract: A wireless gateway for steering a client device between content streaming apparatuses in a wireless local area network (WLAN). The gateway provides an access point (GW AP) including a gateway steering controller configured to determine whether a client device should be steered to a content streaming apparatus based on at least one sample measurement on received signal strength between the client device and the content streaming apparatus and at least one other content streaming apparatus, and conduct steering logic calculations. The steering logic calculations are compared against predetermined thresholds, and said gateway steering controller provides an instruction to steer the client device to one of the content streaming apparatuses based on a difference between the steering logic calculations and the predetermined thresholds. Optionally, the gateway steering controller may also provide band steering as well as signal strength steering.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2022Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: ARRIS ENTERPRISES LLCInventors: Jay Strater, Gregory Nakanishi, Michael J.

Patent number: 11870692Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to facilitate dynamic port forwarding. A CPE device may be configured to dynamically modify one or more port forwarding rules based upon a detection of changes at the CPE device, one or more client devices, and/or a local network that is supported by the CPE device. In response to a steering of a client device to a network extender, the CPE device may amend port forwarding rules to forward traffic from the CPE device to the network extender for delivery to the client device. In response to a detection of a low quality parameter value for a first client device, the CPE device may amend port forwarding rules to forward traffic associated with the first client device to a second client device, wherein the second client device is identified as a device supporting interchangeable services with the first client device.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2020Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: ARRIS ENTERPRISES LLCInventors: Murali Sahasranaman, Lakshmi Arunkumar

Patent number: 11871149Abstract: A multi-modal portal system provides an authorization prior to establishing a visual interface connection between a support user or caller and a client user or receiving party. Once the caller is authorized, the caller is permitted to drop-in such that a visual interface connection is established with the receiving party. The authorization can be based on a profile configuration that indicates whether the caller has the credentials required for the visual interface. The authorization can require that a notification be sent to a trusted user or primary contact or the caller can be associated with a profile configuration that allows for a pre-authorization without requiring the notification. By providing such an authorization, a secure and private visual interface with the client user can be accomplished without requiring an express action or consent by the client user.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2022Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: ARRIS ENTERPRISES LLCInventor: Navneeth N Kannan
