Motofumi Tanabe has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8737387
    Abstract: A gateway unit which relays communication between a call control network and a terminal having no call control function. The gateway unit includes: a session control section which substitutively performs call control processing in call control communication performed by the terminal by way of the call control network and reports a band required for the call control communication to the call control network; and a band adjustment section which determines an updated value of a band of the call control communication based on a communication packet in the call control communication, received from the terminal. The session control section reports the updated value to the call control network as the band required by the call control communication.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20030012294
    Abstract: In the case that a plurality of nodes determines a transmission speed prior to point-to-point communication, in order for minimizing a throughput difference between a node with a high transmission speed determined and a node with a low transmission speed determined, the transmission speed recording section 11 of a slave node 1 records a best transmission speed (a maximum transmission speed) for the slave node 1, the transmission speed setting section 12 determines the transmission speed upon negotiation with the master node when starting data transmission, the transmission speed setting section 12 sets a control transmission speed which is the same as or lower than a determined transmission speed based upon the maximum transmission speed and the determined transmission speed. The transmission speed controlling section 13 controls the transmission speed by using a buffer storage 14 so as not to exceed the control transmission speed set by the transmission speed setting section 12.
