Patents by Inventor Prabhakara Aithal

Prabhakara Aithal 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).

  • Publication number: 20230413307
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a broadband modem that includes a wireless modem and a wireline modem. A traffic integrate and split unit (TISU) within the broadband modem may split uplink data between the wireless and wireline connection based on a scheduling criteria. The TISU may also integrate or combine downlink data received by the wireless and wireline modems. Other embodiments are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20220174534
    Abstract: An example method includes receiving a first signal indicating that a user of a first user endpoint device wishes to engage in a data transfer with a second device over a communication network, estimating at least one metric associated with the data transfer, sending the at least one metric associated with the data transfer to a remote server, and initiating the data transfer with the second device in accordance with a temporarily adjusted throughput that is adjusted by the remote server in response to the at least one metric associated with the data transfer.

  • Publication number: 20200366424
    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards adaptively selecting a repetition level in wireless communications, based on events to improve coverage range via the repetition level while not unnecessarily reducing throughput. One such event can include a current signal-to-noise-ratio, e.g., as reported in a channel quality indicator report from a user equipment. Another such event can comprise a number of consecutive hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgments or negative acknowledgments (HARQ ACKS/NACKS), in which consecutive ACKs tend to indicate good signal quality, while consecutive NACKs tend to indicate poor signal quality. A combination of channel quality indicator-based adaptive repetition level and HARQ ACK/NACK-based adaptive repetition level can be employed.
