  • Internet over satellite apparatus
    Patent number: 6934255
    Abstract: According to the present invention a telecommunications apparatus for providing transport of packetized information over large distances. The apparatus provides a bi-directional flow of information from a first satellite gateway using a connection over a satellite network to a second satellite gateway. The apparatus uses a gateway that translates the information using the TCP protocol into information using a satellite protocol, which is suitable for transmission of such information over the satellite network.
    Type: Grant

  • Method and system for controlling data flow in an internet over satellite connection
    Patent number: 6654344
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a technique for controlling information flow in TCP connections over a wireless wide area network is provided. In an exemplary embodiment, the present invention provides methods and systems for controlling the rate that information flows over a TCP connection to an Xpress Transport Protocol (herein “XTP”) connection, for example. Embodiments can determine those connections likely to use relatively large amounts of system resources and apply flow control techniques to these connections.

  • Internet over satellite system
    Patent number: 6529477
    Abstract: According to the present invention a telecommunications system for providing transport of packetized information over large distances. The system includes a first satellite station gateway for providing a bi-directional flow of information using a connection over a satellite network to a second satellite gateway. The system uses a gateway that translates the information using the TCP protocol into information using a satellite protocol, which is suitable for transmission of such information over the satellite network.

  • Method and system for managing memory in an internet over satellite connection
    Patent number: 6460085
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a technique for managing memory for storing information communicated over one or more TCP connections over a wireless wide area network is provided. In an exemplary embodiment, the present invention provides methods and systems for controlling the buffering of information that flows over a TCP connection to an Xpress Transport Protocol (herein “XTP”) connection, for example.
