Patent number: 8539552Abstract: A system and method for network based policy enforcement of intelligent-client features is provided. An operator of an IP telephony and/or IP multimedia network may enforce authorization or privileges of intelligent end-user clients to utilize or invoke services in the network. A network policy enforcement point is maintained in the network by elements that are under control of the network operator. The network policy enforcement point controls access to, and invocation of, features and services that may otherwise be delivered to subscribers without the knowledge or authorization of the network. The network policy enforcement point receives messages, associates the message with a known service, makes a determination as to whether a beneficiary of the service is authorized to invoke the service, and then filters the messages based on the determination.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2003Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: David Grabelsky, Anoop Tripathi, Michael Homeier, Guanglu Wang

Patent number: 7860089Abstract: A method and system for network based call-pickup is provided. In one embodiment a first user agent communicates in a communication session with a second user agent in a network telephony system. The second user agent may request that a third user agent replace the second user agent in the communication. The third user agent may be a park server, and when it replaces the second user agent, the communication session may thereby be parked at the park server. A fourth user agent may then request that the third user agent (e.g., park server) initiate a communication session between the first user agent and the fourth user agent. The third user agent may then instruct the first user agent to communicate with the fourth user agent. The parked communication session may thereby be picked up by the fourth user agent.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2008Date of Patent: December 28, 2010Assignee: Hewlett-Packard CompanyInventors: Anoop Tripathi, David A.

Patent number: 7463620Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling features and services in packet-based networks are disclosed. The present application provides systems and methods that include sending a first message to a network core device, and identifying a profile from user account information stored on the network core device. The profile specifies which features and services may or may not be implemented by an end device. In the systems and methods of the present application, the profile is added to a second message that is sent from the network core device to the end device. Alternatively, a single message or multiple messages containing the profile, regardless and/or independent of any prior message sent from an end device, may be sent from the network core device to the end device. These systems and methods may also use the session initiation protocol for their communications, with the end devices being session initiation protocol phones and the network core device being a session initiation server.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2002Date of Patent: December 9, 2008Assignee: 3Com CorporationInventors: Guanglu Wang, Michael Homeier, Anoop Tripathi

Patent number: 7340047Abstract: A remote service forwarding (RSF) system allows the telephone service user to access the subscribed services via different access devices without the loss of service. The system allows a user to access different systems or uses dissimilar phone devices or different service providers by porting services over an IP connection. The user may access subscribed services such as Centrex or PBX services over a mobile IP connection.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2004Date of Patent: March 4, 2008Assignee: UTStarcom, IncorporatedInventors: John Fijolek, Guanglu Wang

In an exemplary embodiment, a conferencing system may include a conference control server in communication with a central media mixer (CMM) and one or more edge media mixers (EMM). The conference control server may create a media path that connects the CMM and the EMM(s) via a call-control protocol. Additionally, conference participants may communicate with one another by connecting to the CMM and/or the EMM.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2002Date of Patent: November 20, 2007Assignee: 3Com CorporationInventors: Michael Homeier, Guanglu Wang

Publication number: 20060085545Abstract: A Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) proxy is dedicated, at least in part, to supporting routing of communications for a plurality of clients (such as push-to-talk mobile clients) in a given region. In a preferred embodiment, such support exists notwithstanding that at least some of the clients are able to present any of a plurality of differing user identifiers. In particular, differing user identifiers are nevertheless recognized and used by the SIP proxy(ies) to effect compatible provision of a service such as push-to-talk services.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2004Publication date: April 20, 2006Inventors: Michael Borella, Guanglu Wang

Publication number: 20060064473Abstract: A first presence server as comprises a part of a first communications domain and a second presence server as comprises a part of a second communications domain are configured and arranged to communicate presence information regarding the respective client devices of their respective communications domains. Pursuant to one approach, session initiation protocol messaging facilitates such an exchange of presence information. Pursuant to one embodiment, inter-domain presence information can be cached at a receiving presence server to permit subsequent use when responding to a local request for inter-domain presence information.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2004Publication date: March 23, 2006Inventors: Michael Borella, Guanglu Wang

Publication number: 20040176128Abstract: When an Internet protocol connection for a given mobile communications unit already exists, that existing link can be used to conduct an Internet protocol communication with that mobile communications unit. When such a link does not already exist, and a need exists to convey information to the mobile communication unit via such a link, a message can be provided to the mobile communications unit via a non-Internet protocol wireless link to cause the mobile communications unit to self-initiate establishment of such an Internet protocol communications link. Upon establishing such a link, the requesting entity, service, or application can use that link to facilitate the desired Internet protocol-based communication.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 30, 2003Publication date: September 9, 2004Applicant: 3Com CorporationInventors: David Grabelsky, Anoop Tripathi, Guanglu Wang
