  • Real-time network measurement
    Patent number: 8774008
    Abstract: A method of operation within a device coupled to a network. A first set of data is received from a first data path of the network. A first set of measurement information is identified from the first set of data, and a quality of the first data path is determined based on the first set of measurement information. A second set of data is then selectively transmitted via either the first data path or a second data path of the network, based on the quality of the first data path.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 27, 2012
    Date of Patent: July 8, 2014
    Assignee: Katsuo Cellular Limited Liability Company

  • Real-time network measurement
    Patent number: 8165011
    Abstract: A method of operation within a device coupled to a network. A first set of data is received from the network. A first set of measurement information, for use in determining a quality of the network, is then identified from the first set of data. A second set of measurement information is generated based on the first set of measurement information. The second set of measurement information and a second set of data are transmitted via the network, concurrently.

  • NETWORK BANDWIDTH DETERMINATION
    Publication number: 20100265833
    Abstract: A method for determining a bandwidth of a network system. A first device in the network transmits a plurality of test data during a first interval of time. A second device in the network receives an amount of the transmitted test data, wherein the amount of the test data received by the second device is less than a total amount of the test data transmitted by the first device during the first interval of time. The bandwidth of the network is then determined based on the amount of the test data that is received by the second device.

  • DATA FLOW MIRRORING
    Publication number: 20090080421
    Abstract: A network switch having flow-mirroring capabilities. A first port is provided for communicating data items, each associated with a particular data flow, over a network. A number of data ports are switchably connected to the first port for enabling the data items to be communicated between the first port and at least one of the data ports. A second port is provided for selectively outputting a copy of one or more of the data items based on the associated data flows.
