  • Media content delivery over a wireless network
    Patent number: 9888401
    Abstract: A method sending a first data burst from a base station via a wireless network to a communication device. The first data burst includes a first portion of media content. The method also includes generating a second data burst that includes a second portion of the media content. The second data burst has a size based on potential data wastage of the second data burst, usage efficiency at the base station, or both. The method further includes sending the second data burst to the communication device according to an effective transfer rate of the media content.
    Type: Grant

  • Adaptive pacing of media content delivery over a wireless network
    Patent number: 9654525
    Abstract: A method includes in response to a request to stream media content from a base station of a wireless network to a communication device via a wireless channel, determining, at the base station of a wireless network, a size of a data burst that includes a portion of the media content based on potential data wastage, usage efficiency of base station resources, or a combination thereof. The method includes sending the data burst via the wireless channel from the base station to a communication device.

  • Adaptive pacing of media content delivery over a wireless network
    Patent number: 9237467
    Abstract: A method includes monitoring, at a base station of a wireless network, channel quality information corresponding to a wireless channel used by the base station to stream media content to a communication device. The media content is streamed to the communication device at a particular effective transfer rate via data bursts. The method includes selecting, at the base station, a size of a data burst to send to the communication device and a download rate for the data burst. The size and the data rate are based on the channel quality information. The method also includes sending the data burst to the communication device at a first time from the base station.
