  • Publication number: 20240146848
    Abstract: A system for monitoring voice services has a service monitor that is configured to periodically assess the registration state of a voice service provided to a customer. If the service transitions to an unregistered state, the service monitor logs the state change and continues to monitor the service to determine approximately when the service transitions back to a registered state. Thus, over time, the service monitor tracks loss-of-registration (LOR) events and analyzes the history of such LOR events to determine when they are indicative of a network or service problem that warrants further analysis or attention by a user. Using these techniques, the service monitor may be able to detect and, in some cases, diagnose problems that are degrading voices services for one or more customers even before such customers realize that their services are degraded.

  • Patent number: 11444689
    Abstract: A system for detecting an optical network condition, such as a fiber bend, has an optical line terminal (OLT) that is configured to communicate control information with optical network terminals (ONTs) indicating the transmit power levels and the receive power levels of optical signals, such as optical data signals, that are communicated between the OLT and the ONTs. Based on such information, line losses at different wavelengths are determined and then compared in order to detect an optical network condition, such as a fiber bend. Since the measurements can be performed on optical data signals ordinarily communicated between the OLT and the ONTs, the testing may be performed during data communication. Further, as long as optical communication between the OLT and the ONTs is possible, a fiber bend or other network condition may be detected at any point along the optical path.

  • Patent number: 11325777
    Abstract: Systems and methods for remote monitoring of a container are disclosed. The system includes at least one data collector configured to collect data corresponding to a physical attribute of the container, a wireless transmitter in communication with the at least one data collector and configured to transmit the data corresponding to a physical attribute of the container to a location remote from the location of the container, a server in communication with the wireless transmitter to receive and process the data corresponding to a physical attribute of the container, and a physical attribute analysis engine in communication with the server to receive the data corresponding to a physical attribute of the container and calculate a current value for the physical attribute based upon the received data.
