  • Publication number: 20220078081
    Abstract: A node in a self-assembling network includes one or more radios connected to any of other nodes in the self-assembling network and user equipment, wherein at least one of the node and the other nodes is connected to a fiber or satellite for backhaul; and one or more processors and memory storing control software, wherein the control software is executed in a distributed manner with the other nodes, and wherein the control software is configured to monitor any of positions of the nodes, monitor bandwidth of user equipment connected to any of the nodes, and monitor quality of service requirement of the user equipment, and cause performance of adjustments to the nodes based on any of the monitored positions, the monitored bandwidth, and the monitored quality of service.

  • Patent number: 11184234
    Abstract: A controller associated with a domain includes a network interface; one or more processors communicatively coupled to the network interface; and memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to communicate with one or more additional controllers via the network interface, wherein each of the one or more additional controllers is in one or more additional domains, and wherein each domain provides different characteristics, utilize at least part of a control pattern to obtain requirements for a service, and cause, utilizing any of a peer relationship and a hierarchical relationship with the one or more additional controllers, at least part of implementation of a composition of resources to meet the requirements for the service, wherein the composition defines the resources provided in each domain for the service, and wherein the composition is based on the requirements and the different characteristics in each domain.

  • Patent number: 9071693
    Abstract: Systems and methods according to these exemplary embodiments provide active call concierge services wherein a network tracks users' behaviors with respect to, for example, supplementary services. When a user invokes a supplementary service toward a called party, the network captures this data. The network informs an agent on the user's device that it should prompt the user to reuse the same supplementary service the next time that the user dials the same called party. If the user inputs an acceptance of this suggestion, the user's device automatically appends or adds the service code associated with the repeated supplementary service to the outgoing call setup signal.

  • Publication number: 20110122867
    Abstract: A method for routing a call having services provided by a first network and a second network comprises: receiving the call in the first network; correlating the first network with the second network for the call; and sending the call to the second network. The correlation between the first network and the second network allows the call for returning back to the first network from the second network, after the services provided by the second network have been applied. A communication node for carrying out the method comprises: an input module for receiving the call in the first network; a generator of a correlation between the first and second networks for the call; and an output module for sending the call to the second network.
