Patent number: 11930121Abstract: Each index value and primary data for generating the index value are stored in a block of a blockchain. The primary data is received from a set of data sources, each associated with one or more index components of the index. Based on the received primary data, the index value is generated. A cryptographic hash value is generated based on the received primary data, the generated index value, and a previous hash value corresponding to a previous time period. The generated index value, the received primary data, and the generated cryptographic hash value are stored in a new block of the blockchain.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: MERQUBE, INC.Inventors: Praveen Yalagandula, Vinit Srivastava, Keith Loggie

Patent number: 10624153Abstract: According to one configuration, an access point control resource receives channel allocation information indicating a change to allocation of channels in a wireless band currently used by multiple wireless access points to communicate with multiple communication devices in a network. The access point control resource uses the channel allocation information to identify a particular wireless channel (such as a de-allocated wireless channel) to be terminated from use by the multiple wireless access points. In accordance with the channel allocation information, when vacating use of the de-allocated channel, the access point control resource controls an order of terminating use of the particular wireless channel by the multiple wireless access points.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2018Date of Patent: April 14, 2020Assignee: Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLCInventors: Umamaheswar A.

Patent number: 10327184Abstract: Techniques disclosed herein include systems and methods for providing active mobility of Wi-Fi enabled devices within a given wireless local area network (WLAN). In general, techniques include dynamically commanding Wi-Fi enabled devices to disconnect from a corresponding access point in response to meeting predetermined conditions. A forced disconnect can be based on various criteria such as low-power or lost packet thresholds triggering the forced disconnect. Such techniques cause a Wi-Fi enabled device to disconnect from one access point and connect to another access point before a connection quality deteriorates to a point that causes noticeable interruptions in connectivity or a generally poor experience, thereby enabling a smooth transition among access points.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2017Date of Patent: June 18, 2019Assignee: Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLCInventors: Praveen Srivastava, Arun Manroa, Ahmed Bencheikh

Patent number: 10306481Abstract: A wireless mesh network employs an integrated interface between a plurality of access points for mitigating throughput degradation of multiple consecutive “daisy chain,” or mesh, links. The mesh network employs a plurality of access points, each linked back to a root access point by a series of “hops” through other access points. The wireless mesh network, therefore, employs a plurality of access points operable for wireless links to subscriber, or user, devices, including cellular phones, smart phones, tablet and laptop computing devices, or any suitable portable or handheld computing device. Access points establish an integrated interface with an adjacent access point for direct coupling of the access points for message traffic. The resulting integrated access point establishes a wireless link to a root access point connected to a backhaul network from which media services emanate.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2016Date of Patent: May 28, 2019Assignee: Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLCInventor: Praveen Srivastava

Patent number: 10028193Abstract: A mobile computer device establishes a wireless communication link between the mobile computer device and a first access point of multiple access points in a network environment. While wirelessly connected to the first access point, the mobile computer device monitors communications from a set of neighboring access points including at least a second access point of the multiple access points. The mobile computer device transmits performance information derived from the monitored communications to a controller resource. To alleviate a current load on the first access point, the controller resource generates control information to terminate the wireless communication link between the mobile computer device and the first access point and establish a replacement wireless communication link between the mobile computer device and a second access point.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2016Date of Patent: July 17, 2018Assignee: Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLCInventors: Rajesh Gangadhar, Praveen Srivastava, Sourabh Gupta

Patent number: 9942749Abstract: Sensor based information from a base station is received by a configuration management device and is used to determine orientation, altitude and/or location. In some embodiments, the configuration management device compares measurement based information to corresponding expected values in a deployment plan to determine whether or not the base station has been correctly deployed. In some embodiments, the configuration management device uses received sensor based information from a base station to control re-configuration of the base station, e.g., re-orient an antenna or change an antenna pattern.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2015Date of Patent: April 10, 2018Assignee: Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLCInventors: Zaheer Syed, Praveen Srivastava, Rajesh Gangadhar

Patent number: 9008670Abstract: A graphical user interface displays a proposed site plan of one or more new base stations with respect to existing network infrastructure in a geographical region. While in the field, an installation specialist can perform an in-person survey of the geographical region to determine whether a proposed location is suitable for installation of a wireless base station. The installation specialist may identify an obstacle that would inhibit a newly proposed wireless base station from providing desired coverage if installed at the proposed location. Via input to the graphical user interface, the installation specialist proposes an alternative location in which to install the new base station. A processor performs a validity check and provides feedback indicating whether installation of the new base station at the alternative location is acceptable. The graphical user interface also can support collection of site survey data to monitor progress of the installation.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2013Date of Patent: April 14, 2015Assignee: Time Warner Cable Enterprises LLCInventors: Bryan Goldberg, John Kim, Praveen Srivastava, Ahmed Bencheikh
