  • Systems and methods for visualizing a communications network
    Patent number: 9077634
    Abstract: A system facilitates the visualization of a network having multiple nodes. The system collects information from at least one of the nodes. The information describes network operation over a period of time. The system then reconstructs the network operation for the time period from the collected information and presents the reconstructed network operation to an operator.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 1, 2011
    Date of Patent: July 7, 2015
    Assignees: Verizon Corporate Services Group Inc., Level 3 Communications, LLC, Raytheon BBN Technologies Corp.

  • Systems and methods for visualizing a communications network
    Patent number: 7995479
    Abstract: A system facilitates the visualization of a network having multiple nodes. The system collects information from at least one of the nodes (510). The information describes network operation over a period of time. The system then reconstructs the network operation for the time period from the collected information (520) and presents the reconstructed network operation to an operator (530-550).

  • Band manager for use in multiple-channel networks
    Patent number: 6621795
    Abstract: A band manager (100) for a frequency-agile network simplifies packet transmission over multiple channels in an ad hoc network or wireless network by acting as a filter between a radio layer (104) and a network layer (102). The band manager (100) selects one channel out of multiple channels for transmitting and receiving packets, thereby taking the channel-decision making responsibility away from the components (e.g., the routing module (206), packet multiplexer (204), clustering module (210)) in the network layer (102). As a result, the radio layer (104) and the network layer (102) transmit and receive packets over a single channel selected by the band manager (100) rather than handling multiple packets over multiple channels. The inventive band manager (100) simplifies a multiple-channel network by making the network layer (102) and radio layer (104) act like a single-channel network.
