Patent number: 10757579Abstract: Multiple mobile cellular network (MCN) communication systems can be networked together to form a network of MCN communication systems (NOM). Each MCN communication system within the NOM can operate as an independent cellular network to provide communications between user equipment within a covered area. The MCN can be managed by a network management control center (NMCC). The NMCC can be configured generate coverage maps of the NOM and NMC system coverage areas.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2019Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: Oceus Networks Inc.Inventors: Joseph L.

Patent number: 10750423Abstract: Multiple mobile cellular network (MCN) communication systems can be networked together to form a network of MCN communication systems (NOM). Each MCN communication system within the NOM can operate as an independent cellular network to provide communications between user equipment within a covered area. When a UE in one MCN of the NOM moves into a different MCN of the NOM, the corresponding MCN communication systems can handover the UE. The UE can also be handed over between MCN communication systems when the MCN communication systems move.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2018Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: Oceus Networks Inc.Inventors: Pamela Schemagin, Vincent Charles Graffagnino, Jouko Rytilahti, Ian Gibbs, James McGovern, John Green, Kyle Collins

Patent number: 10742610Abstract: A UE communicates with a network gateway to access a provisioning device via a provisioning network. The provisioning device uses identification data of the UE to authenticate the UE for a primary network, and provides primary network configuration data to the UE. Using the primary network configuration data, the UE communicates with the network gateway to access the primary network. The primary network configuration data can include data to enable the UE to establish communications with one or more private networks accessible via the primary network.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2018Date of Patent: August 11, 2020Assignee: Oceus Networks Inc.Inventor: James Thomas Row, II
