Patent number: 11601847Abstract: A method performed by an agent for handling an event of a network service deployed in a cloud environment is provided. The agent is capable to access to a server in the cloud environment. The agent obtains information from the server. The information is about an event of the network service. When the network service relates to a Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) network, the agent decides whether to register network service with or without an associated address of a load balancer of the network service. The agent then registers in a core network node operating in the 3GPP network, the network service with or without an associated address of a load balancer of the network service according to the event and according to the outcome of the deciding.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2017Date of Patent: March 7, 2023Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Conny Larsson, Michael Eriksson, Zhang Fu

Publication number: 20180097904Abstract: A method and apparatus for addressing a message sent from a proxy node to a peer node in a communications network. The proxy node receives from a host node a plurality of multipath messages. Each message of the plurality of multipath messages has an address. The proxy node then applies a rule to assign an address for a single flow message towards the peer node, and assigns a new address for the single flow message towards the peer node, the assigned new address not being used for any of the plurality of multipath messages; and. The single flow message comprises each message of the plurality of multipath messages. The single flow message is then sent towards the peer node.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2017Publication date: April 5, 2018Inventors: Dinand Roeland, Michael Eriksson, Rashmi Purushothama

Patent number: 9573701Abstract: A method of docking and recharging using a base station and a station-mating frame on the multicopter. The base station includes an upward-facing camera that is used by a docking controller to detect the presence, position, and orientation of a frame, with infrared light-emitting diodes arranged in a predefined pattern. The controller of the base station acts to emit wireless signals to the multicopter to guide the multicopter with its station-mating frame to a predefined position above the base station. The controller transmits a wireless signal to the multicopter to reduce thrust, and the multicopter lowers itself onto a sloped receiving surface that may be arranged in a crown pattern to provide passive gravity-driven centering, which causes the station-mating frame to slide to a lowest vertical point of the receiving assembly. A locking mechanism engages to lock the frame in place and provide electrical contact for recharging.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2014Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Assignee: Disney Enterprises, Inc.Inventors: Paul A. Beardsley, Michael Eriksson, Javier Alonso-Mora, Joern Rehder

Patent number: 6356543Abstract: A method and system are disclosed whereby a mobile phone user can select one or more service preferences for the mobile phone from a simulated mobile phone display on an Internet web page. The user can access the web page from a personal or business computer. Once the selection has been made, the user can save the preferences to a server in the mobile phone network. The server contains (or provides links to) the full complement of services that are available for selection. The selected services' applications are downloaded from the server to the mobile phone (via the network) either immediately (if a network connection is already made) or the next time the phone is turned on. Consequently, the user can readily obtain the services desired, and also customize the display and “look and feel” of the mobile phone.Type: GrantFiled: November 25, 1997Date of Patent: March 12, 2002Assignee: Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson (publ)Inventors: Hans Hall, Michael Eriksson
