Patents by Inventor Barry Steven Braun

Barry Steven Braun has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9398509
    Abstract: Methods and systems for dynamic parameter selection are provided. A station receives a condition measurement report from user equipment (UE) served by the station. The condition measurement report includes a signal strength indication, which includes a strength of a reference signal measured by the UE that is received by the UE over the air from the station. The wireless communication network includes a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. A parameter controller compares the signal strength indication to a signal strength threshold, to identify a change in the strength of the reference signal. The parameter controller selects an alternate parameter value of a parameter associated with hand-over that is different from a current parameter value, responsive to the identified change in the reference signal strength. The station sends an instruction to the UE served by the station to perform hand-over measurement reporting using the selected alternate parameter value.
