  • Patent number: 11973607
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems manage use of shared network resources among subscribers to a data communication service. In some implementations, a first metric is computed representing a subscriber's use of the shared network resources. A second metric may also be computed that represents the amount of network congestion of the shared network resources. Data derived from the first metric and the second metric may then be presented to the subscriber. The data may be transmitted to the subscriber over a network and/or the data may be displayed to the subscriber on an electronic display.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 7, 2022
    Date of Patent: April 30, 2024
    Assignee: VIASAT, INC.

  • Patent number: 9246775
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems manage use of shared network resources among subscribers to a data communication service. In some implementations, a first metric is computed representing a subscriber's utilization of the shared network resources. If the subscriber's utilization exceeds a first threshold, the subscriber's network traffic over the shared network resources may be filtered to allow use of the shared network resources only with a first set of capabilities. When the subscriber's data is filtered, their upload or download speed may be unaffected. If the subscriber's utilization exceeds a second threshold, the subscriber's data download speed may be limited. In some implementations, the second threshold is larger than the first threshold.
