  • Publication number: 20240129149
    Abstract: An example apparatus disclosed herein is to receive network data communicated via a first channel associated with the online collaboration session, the network data including received media data packets. The disclosed example apparatus is also to analyze the network data to determine first loopback data, the first loopback data including at least one of a first quality score based on a first analysis of the received media data packets or a second quality score based on a second analysis of media decoded from the received media data packets. The disclosed example apparatus is also to analyze local data obtained by a local client during the online collaboration session to determine second loopback data. The disclosed example apparatus is further to cause transmission of a loopback message to a moderator client via the second channel, the loopback message based on the first loopback data and the second loopback data.

  • Patent number: 10056934
    Abstract: A dynamically configurable antenna is integrated into a system configured to transmit and receive data. Antenna control software and/or hardware configures the antenna to transmit and receive data with different operating characteristics, depending on the communication needs of the system. The physical structure of the dynamically configurable antenna can be modified in order to perform data communications with specific frequency ranges, directionalities, transmission and/or amplification powers, and other operating characteristics generally associated with wireless RF communication.
