Publication number: 20240283744Abstract: A domain and a mobile device may exchange data via a radio access node included in a mobile network. During a time of peak demand, a data load level of the radio access node may exceed a threshold. To accommodate the peak demand, historical types and volumes of data may be used to manage a data rate related to data associated with the domain. Based on the historical information, the data rate for a mobile device, a radio access node, a range of time, or a data type may be controlled. The data rate may be managed by a network gateway, such as a gateway included in the mobile network.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2024Publication date: August 22, 2024Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Sheldon Meredith, William Cottrill, John Pastore

Patent number: 10300965Abstract: An aerodynamic drag reduction device for use on an over-the-road cargo vehicle. The vehicle has a prismatically shaped cargo area, which includes a rear face of the cargo area substantially perpendicular to the direction of travel. The device comprises a plurality of resilient prongs arranged along a rear edge of the vehicle body, extending from a respective fixed end secured to the vehicle body rearward in a flow-wise direction beyond the rear edge of the vehicle body to a respective free end. Each prong is separated from an adjacent prong in the plurality, and each is flexible to permit deflection, under the influence of airflow over the vehicle at a predetermined speed, above and below a first plane defined by the surface of the vehicle to which the plurality of prongs is secured. Each prong is further resistant to deflecting in a direction parallel to the first plane.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2017Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: AT&T MOBILITY II LLCInventors: Sheldon Kent Meredith, Mario Kosseifi, John Pastore

Patent number: 10277709Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer-readable storage device, and apparatus for determining a visitation profile for a user are disclosed. For example, the method gathers uniform resource locator visitation data from each user endpoint device of a plurality of user endpoint devices associated with the user, aggregates the uniform resource locator visitation data that is gathered from the plurality of user endpoint devices associated with the user, and determines the visitation profile for the user, wherein the visitation profile indicates a trend of the uniform resource locator visitation data over a time period.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2014Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: AT&T Mobility II LLCInventors: Sheldon Kent Meredith, John Pastore, Rick Tipton

Patent number: 10229411Abstract: Fraud analysis for a location aware transaction is disclosed. Location information can be associated with historical fraud events. A location of user equipment can be analyzed against historical fraud information associated with the location to facilitate determination of a fraud factor value. The fraud factor value can reflect a determination related to a likelihood of fraud occurring in an instant transaction based on the historic fraud events proximate to the location. The determination can be based on fraud rules. Further aspects provide for abstraction of the fraud factor to limit exposure of personal information associated with wireless carrier subscribers in fraud analysis for a location aware transaction.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2015Date of Patent: March 12, 2019Assignee: AT&T MOBILITY II LLCInventors: Sheldon Meredith, Mark Austin, John Pastore

Patent number: 9864875Abstract: Event driven permissive sharing of information is disclosed. In an aspect, user equipment can include information sharing profiles that can facilitate sharing information with other devices or users, such as sharing location information. The information sharing profiles can include trigger values, such that when a target value transitions the trigger value, a permission value is updated to restrict or allow access to sharable information. As such, event driven permissive sharing of information allows for designation of temporary friend information sharing with user-defined triggers.Type: GrantFiled: October 7, 2015Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: AT&T MOBILITY II LLCInventors: Sheldon Kent Meredith, Mario Kosseifi, John Pastore
