Patent number: 8948366Abstract: One or more aspects of the disclosure relate to various functions and processes related to routing of calls originating from other service providers. For example, a method includes receiving a request to route a call or a call session, such as a session initiation request, from a second service provider and proceeding to route the requested call or session through a call routing facility of the first service provider to a requested destination of the call. Routing the call through the call routing facility may include determining a service provider type and/or an origination number type for the call, determining routing information for the call using the type information, and causing routing of the call to a destination of the call based on the routing information. Further aspects of the disclosure relate to various functions and processes related to accessing routing data and/or information from a routing database.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2013Date of Patent: February 3, 2015Assignee: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Arvind Kaushal, Jon Boone, Sohel Khan, Louis Rubin, Brett Sherman, Jaime Jimenez

Publication number: 20140280994Abstract: Communication sessions may be initialized by sending an initialization request, and the request may include a frame of policy data identifying permissions, prohibitions and/or rules governing a requesting user or computing device's ability to make calls and use communication services. The policy frame of data may be included with the call initialization request for the session, and may be passed along to multiple nodes that receive the call initialization request.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2013Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Sohel Khan, Jon Boone, Robert Lambardia

Publication number: 20140280992Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to error prevention in a communication session traffic environment. One or more embodiments of the disclosure relate to mitigation of processing loops during establishment of a communication session in a network. A network node at the boundary of the network can mitigate processing loops by monitoring formation of such loops and proactively terminating communication processing in response to expiration of a timer. The timer can be initiated in response to formation of a loop.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2013Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: Comcast Cable Communications, LLCInventors: Sohel Khan, Jon A.

Publication number: 20140140198Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to routing of an emergency communication under fault conditions. Routing can be implemented in a packet-switching (PS) network that provides voice service. For a network node of the PS network, availability to route the emergency communication through a specific emergency service routing number (ESRN) can be determined and, in response to the network node being unavailable, administrative data associated with the ESRN can be accessed. In addition, an identifier associated with the administrative data can be updated (e.g., created or modified) with data indicative of the device that originated the emergency communication. The administrative data and the resulting identifier can be delivered to a second network node that can route the emergency communication to an emergency service network.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 27, 2014Publication date: May 22, 2014Applicant: COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS, LLCInventors: Arvind Kaushal, Jon Boone, Brett Sherman

Publication number: 20130315105Abstract: A system and method for improving the handling, management, and retention of particular accounts. An allowable calling number list is generated via a suitable mechanism such as a call center. The allowable calling number list is utilized by telephone number management server to manage inbound call access to suspended accounts. Account representatives are given access to the suspended numbers. Additionally, certain emergency inbound calls may be permitted from select numbers.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 3, 2013Publication date: November 28, 2013Applicant: COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS, LLCInventors: Chia-Chang Li, Jon Boone, Jaime Jimenez, Chris Kennedy

Publication number: 20120201368Abstract: One or more aspects of the disclosure relate to various functions and processes related to routing of calls based on origination and/or destination information. In one aspect, a method may comprise receiving a request for a call session, and the request may include an indicator that may indicate whether to route a call based on origination and/or destination information of the call session. Based on the indicator, a routing element may determine whether the call session should be routed based on origination information and/or destination information.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2012Publication date: August 9, 2012Applicant: COMCAST CABLE COMMUNICATIONS, LLCInventors: Arvind Kaushal, Jon Boone, Brett Sherman, Richard Wikoff, Jaime Jimenez
