Patent number: 11252626Abstract: A method for reducing delay during a link switchover is disclosed. The method comprises determining whether transmission of data in progress is a segmented data transmission, and detecting whether there is a link switchover. If there is a link switchover, the method generates new link characteristic header information for a data packet, and determines a segmentation of the data packet based on the new link characteristic header information. The method then generates segmentation header information for the data packet, and transmits the data packet over a current link.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2020Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Xiaozhong He, Louis T.

Patent number: 9473235Abstract: In an embodiment, a method of routing packets at a first node in an ad-hoc network is provided. The method includes receiving, at the first node, a plurality of route-alive messages corresponding to a destination, each of the plurality of route-alive messages including a route time indicating a length of time in which a communicative connection is available between the second node that sent the respective route-alive message and the destination. The method also includes determining an updated route time for each second node. The updated route time corresponds to a length of time in which a communication connection is available between the first node and the destination through the respective second node. A second node is selected for sending a packet to based on the updated route time for each of the second nodes, wherein a node having a longer updated route time is given higher priority for selection.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2014Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Thanga Anandappan, Aloke Roy, Sharath Babu Malve, Louis T.

Patent number: 8688987Abstract: One embodiment is directed to a method for managing cryptographic information. The method includes initiating cryptographic information loading application on a general purpose mobile device (GPMD) and establishing a connection between the GPMD and a server that includes cryptographic information. Authentication input is received from a user of the GPMD. Data identifying the GPMD and the authentication input is sent from the GPMD to the server for authentication of the GPMD and the user. The GPMD also sends data identifying an electronic device into which cryptographic information is to be loaded. In response, the GPMD receives cryptographic information for the electronic device at the GPMD from the server. The GPMD then sends the cryptographic information from the GPMD to the electronic device for loading therein.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2012Date of Patent: April 1, 2014Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: James Christopher Kirk, Michael L.
