  • Real-time comparison of quality of interfaces
    Patent number: 7885185
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a system and method for substantially real-time comparison of quality of interfaces by mobile devices over heterogeneous networks is disclosed. The method can be performed using a dynamic and rapid comparison by distributed hosts, using a minimal number of injected network packets, using minimal path quality metrics, which path quality metrics are independent of how a QoI is measured, and in a manner suitable for both wireline and wireless networks.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 23, 2005
    Date of Patent: February 8, 2011
    Assignees: Toshiba America Reseach, Inc., Telcordia Technologies, Inc.
