Patent number: 10547669Abstract: A device can receive a request to provide content to a set of devices in a service area. The request can include a set of content configuration parameters associated with the content. The device can obtain the content by using the set of content configuration parameters to search a content source. The device can separate the content into a set of content segments using a content configuration parameter of the set of content configuration parameters. The device can provide multicast session instructions to a multicast system to cause the multicast system to provide the set of content segments to the service area using a multicast session. The multicast session can be used by the set of devices to store one or more content segments of the set of content segments.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2017Date of Patent: January 28, 2020Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Arvind Basra, Kevin Lisewski

Publication number: 20200029179Abstract: A first cell device obtains, from a second cell device, multicast information associated with the second cell device, where a first wireless coverage area associated with the first cell device at least partially overlaps a second wireless coverage area associated with the second cell device. The first cell device transmits the multicast information to an element management system, and receives, from the element management system, an instruction, generated based at least on the multicast information, to not use one or more subframes, associated with a multicast transmission session associated with the second cell device, to transmit during the multicast transmission session. The first cell device determines, after receiving the instruction, that the multicast transmission session has been initiated, and causes the first cell device to not use the one or more subframes to transmit during the multicast transmission session associated with the second cell device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2018Publication date: January 23, 2020Inventors: Arvind BASRA, Glenna S.
