Patent number: 11621981Abstract: An originating user equipment may generate a request to utilize a service that links over-the-top content with a voice call, and may provide the request to an entitlement server of a core network associated with the originating user equipment. The originating user equipment may receive, from the entitlement server, information verifying entitlement of the originating user equipment for the service. The information may include a tag identifying the service. The originating user equipment may provide an invite message, with the tag, to a terminating user equipment and may establish the voice call with the terminating user equipment based on providing the invite message and via an Internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) network and the core network. The originating user equipment may establish, concurrently with the voice call, a connection for the over-the-top content with the terminating user equipment via a data network and the core network.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2021Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Jun Yuan, Hesham Elbatouti, Weimin Shi

Patent number: 11588771Abstract: A messaging platform may send, based on a query, information identifying one or more virtual assistants to a user device. The messaging platform may receive, from the user device, a response identifying a particular virtual assistant, of the one or more virtual assistants, wherein the virtual assistant is associated with an organization. The monitoring platform may send, to the user device, information related to the particular virtual assistant and may communicate, via the particular virtual assistant, with the user device via a rich communications services (RCS) communication session. The messaging platform may receive, from another device associated with the organization, a request to communicate with the user device and may convert the request into an RCS message. The messaging platform may send, via a server device, the RCS message to the user device to allow the user device to perform one or more actions.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2021Date of Patent: February 21, 2023Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Yousef Abdelmalek, Sethumadhav Bendi, Hesham Elbatouti

Patent number: 11444987Abstract: A session border manager (SBM) may receive a session initiation protocol (SIP) request for a session or a service involving a first user equipment (UE) that is subscribed to a first network and a second UE, that is subscribed to a second network, wherein the SIP request indicates a service type of the session or the service. The SBM may determine, based on the service type, a subnetwork of the second network that is to facilitate the session or the service, wherein the subnetwork is one subnetwork, of a plurality of subnetworks, of the second network that is designated to manage communications that are associated with the service type. The SBM may transmit the SIP request to the subnetwork to cause the subnetwork to initiate the session or the service with the second UE. The SBM may receive, from the subnetwork, a response to the SIP request.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2020Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Yousef Abdelmalek, Hesham Elbatouti

Patent number: 10264413Abstract: A device can determine that a sender user equipment connected to a network has been authenticated. The device can cause another device associated with the network to provide configuration information to the sender user equipment after determining that the sender user equipment has been authenticated. The device can receive an RCS message from the sender user equipment after causing the other device to provide the configuration information. The device can determine a capability of a set of receiver user equipment utilizing capability information stored in a data structure. The device can selectively provide the RCS message to the set of receiver user equipment utilizing the non-IMS RCS messaging based on the capability of the set of receiver user equipment, or provide the RCS message to the set of receiver user equipment without utilizing the non-IMS RCS messaging based on the capability of the set of receiver user equipment.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2018Date of Patent: April 16, 2019Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Kalyani Bogineni, Sudhakar Reddy Patil, Paula C.

Publication number: 20070143503Abstract: Communications may be exchanged between two computing devices for purpose of establishing a collection of data items on one of the devices. During the communication, a data transfer configuration may also be communicated to the device on which the collection of data items is established. When that device communicates with another computing device (“downstream device”), the data transfer process causes the automatic selection of certain data items, either for transfer to the downstream device to the exclusion of other data items in the collection, or for priority of transfer over some or all other data items in the collection.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2005Publication date: June 21, 2007Inventors: Parag Gupta, Hesham Elbatouti
