  • Patent number: 8379634
    Abstract: Systems and methods to route a call over a voice and data network (VDN) are provided. A particular method includes receiving a call from a calling device at a telecommunications gateway (TCG). Authentication data is received via the call. A determination is made whether a user account associated with the authentication data is authorized to route calls via the TCG to a VDN. When the user account is authorized to route calls via the TCG to the VDN, call data received at the TCG via the call is converted into a format compatible with the VDN. The converted call data is sent via the VDN to a destination device.

  • Patent number: 7606217
    Abstract: A system and method for routing a mobile phone call over a voice and data network. A user places a call on a mobile phone to an end destination. The call is then routed to a telecommunications gateway, where the call is converted into a medium that is transferable over the voice and data network. The converted call is then sent over the voice and data network to another PSTN and finally to the end destination.

  • Patent number: 7054780
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method of operating a network analyzer, comprises applying a stimulus signal on at least one port of the network analyzer for provision to a device under test (DUT) within a test fixture coupled to the network analyzer; generating measurement data from the DUT in response to the stimulus signal on at least one port of the network analyzer; and generating an amplitude response of the DUT across a frequency range, wherein a port extension module of the network analyzer automatically applies loss compensation to the amplitude response in a manner that is non-linearly related to frequency according to at least one controllable parameter.
