Patent number: 10021558Abstract: Methods and devices are disclosed for customizing a wireless communication device having at least one radio frequency (RF) resource associated with an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM). The wireless communication device may detect a condition that uses provisioning of a new subscriber identity module (SIM) profile for the eSIM, switch an enabled SIM profile for the new SIM profile, and identify one or more parameters based on information from the eSIM. Based on the identified one or more parameters, the wireless communication device may select a configuration package that provides configuration settings and software associated with at least one device feature, and corresponding activation commands. The wireless communication device may install and activate the configuration settings and software associated with the at least one device feature.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2016Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventor: Poornima Lalwaney

Patent number: 8649659Abstract: In at least some embodiments, the present invention relates to methods and systems for enabling media content to be utilized or output by way of media presentation devices. In one such embodiment, a method includes receiving at a first cloud a first signal from a first media presentation device indicative of a request or command that a content signal transmission be paused, and sending a second signal including bookmark information from the first cloud to a second media presentation device. The method further includes receiving a third signal from the second media presentation device, the third signal being indicative of a further request or command that the transmission of the media content signal be resumed, and resuming the transmission. In additional embodiments, the present invention relates to methods of operating a media presentation device so as to perform a resumed displaying of video media content.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 2010Date of Patent: February 11, 2014Assignee: Motorola Mobility LLCInventor: Poornima Lalwaney

Patent number: 8447349Abstract: A communication system reduces set up time for an inter-technology handoff of a multi-mode mobile station (MS) from a source network associated with a first radio frequency (RF) technology to a target network associated with a second RF technology by pre-establishing, prior to a determination to handoff the MS, a registration state of the MS and an authentication of the MS in association with the target network and second RF technology. In order to pre-establish the registration state and authentication, the MS exchanges messaging of the second RF technology with the second network via the first network and first RF technology. To facilitate the exchange, the MS includes shims in a second protocol stack associated with the second technology, which shims intercept second protocol stack signaling and redirect the intercepted signaling to a first protocol stack of the MS, associated with the first technology, for tunneling to the source network.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2009Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: Motorola Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Peter J. McCann, George Cherian, Poornima A. Lalwaney, Philip R. Roberts

Patent number: 6901058Abstract: An improved wireless communications system for efficiently delivering multicast transmissions within a CDMA wireless communications network. To minimize use of network resources, a multicast group Walsh code is dynamically assigned for transmissions to group members for the duration of the session. Reverse link multicast long code covers are assigned by a base station controller and transmitted to the mobile station on a forward channel as derived from the multicast IP address. A multicast reflection function is provided at the base station controller or the IP gateway to transmit multicast messages received from mobile stations to other group members in their coverage area. The assigned group Walsh codes and long codes are used to spread all multicast transmissions on the CDMA forward and reverse channels, respectively.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2002Date of Patent: May 31, 2005Assignee: Nokia CorporationInventor: Poornima Lalwaney

Publication number: 20050066044Abstract: An Internet protocol (IP) based location system that employs a global positioning system (GPS) component in connection with a position determining entity (PDE) component to determine location of target mobile station(s) via the Internet. As such the system provides an internet protocol based scheme (e.g., UDP) to initiate a location determination session within a CDMA network. The system can provide a location determining service even when the mobile station(s) are not within a home network (e.g., roaming situations). The system can also employ HTTP over TCP/IP so as to facilitate communications between the mobile station(s) and a mobile positioning center (MPC) (e.g., authentication and/or security protocols/schemes). Furthermore, the system can identify a PDE of a plurality of available PDEs that is most suitable for a given state of the mobile station and/or state of the user and/or particular location based application being employed by the mobile station.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2003Publication date: March 24, 2005Inventors: Hemant Chaskar, Jean-Michel Rousseau, Poornima Lalwaney

Patent number: 6484210Abstract: A method and apparatus for allowing a personal computer to receive data from a computer network such as the Internet via a broadcast channel of a cable or satellite television network, while transmitting data upstream to the computer network via a telephone line. A packet processing relay agent (PPRA) forwards data at the data link layer between a one-way network adapter, such as a cable modem that receives Internet data via a cable network, and a two-way return path adapter, such as a telephone modem that communicates with Internet servers and other users via a telephone network. The system provides compatibility with TCP/IP routing/addressing conventions by forwarding upstream IP packets with a cable modem source address over the telephone modem. The PPRA can enhance functionality by incorporating higher layer functions at the data link layer.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 1998Date of Patent: November 19, 2002Assignee: General Instrument CorporationInventors: Richard Adriano, Poornima Lalwaney, Yong Ho Son

Patent number: 6289377Abstract: A one-way adapter such as a cable modem is initialized to allow a personal computer to receive data from a computer network such as the Internet via a broadcast channel, while transmitting data upstream to the computer network via a telephone line. First, a two-way adapter such as a phone modem is initialized by establishing a telephone link with a terminal server of an Internet Service Provider telephone network. The terminal server obtains an IP address from a phone network address server, and assigns the IP address to the phone modem stack. Next, the cable modem stack sends out a request for session initialization to a cable modem driver. The request is processed by a packet processing relay agent (PPRA), and the IP address of the phone modem is inserted into the packet. The IP packet destination address is set to that of a cable network address server.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 1998Date of Patent: September 11, 2001Assignee: General Instrument CorporationInventors: Poornima Lalwaney, Jonathan A.
