Patent number: 9841506Abstract: A geographic tracking system with minimal power and size required at the mobile terminal collects observation data at the mobile terminal, forwards the data to a processor, which calculates the position. The mobile terminal needs only to gather a few milliseconds of observation data, and to relay this observation data to the processor. In one embodiment, the observation data is communicated to the processor using either a satellite communication network or through a mobile telephone network.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2012Date of Patent: December 12, 2017Assignee: SkyBitz, Inc.Inventors: Jay Brosius, Richard Burtner

Patent number: 8929279Abstract: A system and method for improving efficiency of satellite communications is described. In one embodiment, efficient satellite communications is enabled through event-driven reporting by a mobile terminal.Type: GrantFiled: April 9, 2012Date of Patent: January 6, 2015Assignee: SkyBitz, Inc.Inventors: Rich Battista, Jay Brosius, Uday Shankar

Patent number: 8633819Abstract: A multi-mode asset tracking and monitoring system and method is provided that enables comprehensive reporting of asset position, status, and alerts. In one embodiment, the multi-mode system and method is based on the addition of a local network monitoring system to a wide area satellite network monitoring system. In this example, the local network monitoring system would add container presence and status monitoring in crowded environments (e.g., within a port facility, on-board a ship, etc.), while the wide area satellite network monitoring system would provide tracking and monitoring coverage when the container is in dispersed environments. Both the local and wide area monitoring systems work together to provide end-to-end container tracking and monitoring to thereby ensure continuous container tracking and monitoring from container loading to container unloading.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2012Date of Patent: January 21, 2014Assignee: SkyBitz, Inc.Inventor: Jay Brosius
