Patent number: 11929828Abstract: Systems and methods for differentiated application of an Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM) to enhance link performance in satellite communication systems are disclosed. A system may include a processor and a memory storing instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to dynamically compute bandwidth capacity of a terminal from a plurality of terminals. Based on the computed bandwidth capacity of the terminal, the processor may automatically determine a ModCod to be applied for transmission to or from the terminal to optimize bit error rate (BER) performance. The to processor may determine the ModCod using an ACM technique. For the plurality of terminals, the processor may dynamically determine aggregate bandwidth availability and congestion within the ACM technique to optimize sharing of available bandwidth.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Hughes Network Systems, LLCInventors: George Joseph Choquette, John Leonard Border

Patent number: 11616734Abstract: Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to a method, comprising: receiving a plurality of traffic flows transmitted by a plurality of user devices; determining, at a modem, a user device of the user devices that is associated with each of the traffic flows; classifying, at the modem, each of the traffic flows according to a class of service associated with a traffic class; and allocating, at the modem, bandwidth to each of the traffic flows based on the traffic flow's class of service and the user device associated with the traffic flow. A total available bandwidth may be allocated to the traffic flows as a function of traffic classes associated with the traffic flows, the classes of services associated with the traffic flows, and the user devices that transmitted the traffic flows.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2020Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: HUGHES NETWORK SYSTEMS, LLCInventors: Venkat Ganesan, Tayyab Khan, George Joseph Choquette, Eddie Beal

Publication number: 20220271832Abstract: A system for monitoring operational status and detecting faults in a satellite system is disclosed. The system may include a processor and a memory storing instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the processor to select, from a plurality of terminals, a subset of terminals to perform system operation tests. The processor may select the subset of terminals using at least one of a semi-static pre-qualification technique and a dynamic pre-qualification technique. The processor may also perform system operation tests using the selected subset of terminals. The processor may further report results from the system operation test using the selected subset of terminals. In some examples, the processor may also determine potential system operation issues based on the results of the system operation tests, generate an alarm or notification based on the determination of potential system operation issues, and/or abort testing or delay testing to a future testing cycle.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 9, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Applicant: Hughes Network Systems, LLCInventor: George Joseph CHOQUETTE

Patent number: 11272350Abstract: Systems and methods are described, and one method includes receiving at a first network a request for a second network configuration data and an identifier of a first network home service plan of the mobile terminal, and transmitting to the second network an inter-network configuration data request. The inter-network configuration data request carries the request for the second network configuration data and an identifier of the mobile terminal's first network home service plan. The first network receives from the second network an inter-network configuration data response that carries the second network configuration data and, in response, transmits the second network configuration data to the mobile terminal.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2020Date of Patent: March 8, 2022Assignee: Hughes Network Systems, LLCInventors: Rajeev Gautam Oza, George Joseph Choquette, Guy Bryan Montgomery, Suresh Kumar Korada

Publication number: 20210075643Abstract: Data communications methods and systems for data packets transmitted via tunnel sessions. Satellite data communication system providing data communication services between two or more network node devices via a satellite or other data communication system are typically associated with round trip times that can cause delay in the exchange of data. Many conventional protocols, such as TCP, are not well designed for operating across links with such long delays. To address this and provide a more acceptable end-user experience, the system can include a common acceleration and optimization processor configured to provide various network acceleration and/or optimization functions and a tunnel processor configured to provide tunnel protocol-specific processing for multi-protocol encapsulated traffic.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2020Publication date: March 11, 2021Applicant: Hughes Network Systems, LLCInventors: George Joseph Choquette, Satyajit Roy

Patent number: 10476585Abstract: Various arrangements for establishing a bidirectional satellite communication session are presented. Initialization data may be accessed to tune an antenna to a geosynchronous satellite, wherein the initialization data is stored locally by the access node. The initialization data may be used to point and tune the antenna to the geosynchronous satellite. Ephemeris data may be received from the geosynchronous satellite. The ephemeris data may be indicative of orbital locations of satellites that are part of a non-geosynchronous satellite constellation. The ephemeris data may be used to point and tune the antenna to a satellite of the non-geosynchronous satellite constellation. The bidirectional satellite communication session may then be established with the satellite of the non-geosynchronous satellite constellation.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2018Date of Patent: November 12, 2019Assignee: Hughes Network Systems, LLCInventors: Robert James Torres, George Joseph Choquette
