  • Patent number: 11582331
    Abstract: Described herein are techniques, devices, and systems for handling Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) messages with malformed header fields. A communication device that receives a SIP message from an additional communication device may identify one or more identified header fields of a plurality of first header fields in a message header of the SIP message that correspond to (e.g., match) one or more second header fields in a list of second header fields accessible to the communication device. If the communication device determines that the one or more identified header fields are not malformed, the communication device may process the SIP message without regard to remaining header fields in the message header. If, however, the communication device determines that at least one identified header field of the one or more identified header fields is malformed, the communication device may reject the SIP message.

  • Patent number: 11576019
    Abstract: In a 6G network, microservices can be utilized in the absence of a core network. For example, after a mobile device has authenticated, through its carrier network, with a transport service layer, microservices can be allocated to the mobile device without having to be transmitted via the core network. Thus, removing the core network from the process can generate a direct line of microservices from the transport layer to the end-user. Furthermore, additional microservices and/or resources can be access through a microservices library. Consequently, packets can be securely transmitted be a wireless network facilitating sending packet profile data from one to many node devices in anticipation of the packet traversing the various node devices.

  • Patent number: 11569903
    Abstract: Various arrangements for a satellite-based forward link overlay are presented herein. In some embodiments, broadband data is modulated at a particular frequency, phase, and/or timing to create a broadband data signal. The frequency, phase, and/or timing are used to modulate a low-bandwidth data signal. The low-bandwidth data signal can then be combined with the broadband data signal and transmitted via satellite to a geographic region. A low-bandwidth receiver unit may determine the frequency, phase, and/or timing from the embedded broadband signal and use such information to demodulate and despread the low-bandwidth data signal.
