  • Patent number: 9088430
    Abstract: Remote field testing of mobile communication devices is described herein. By way of example, network initiated data received at a mobile device or like device activated on a mobile network can be monitored. Further, an over the air (OTA) message sent by the mobile network to the monitored device can be identified. If pertinent to a test device or an application of the test device, the OTA message can be forwarded to the test device. In addition, an IP network, satellite network, or the other suitable remote network can be utilized to forward the OTA message. Accordingly, field testing can be implemented at a convenient place remote from the mobile network, reducing or avoiding time and cost associated with local field testing at wireless access points of the mobile network.

  • Patent number: 8909211
    Abstract: Providing for remote control of electronic devices at least in part utilizing a mobile radio access network (RAN) is disclosed herein. A control server is provided that can initiate an OTA message requesting control of a client device. The OTA message can be transmitted via the RAN to the client device, which can initiate a data network call upon receipt of the message. A data network address can be forwarded to the control server to facilitate data exchange between the server and client. The client can act upon and respond to commands issued by the server. As described herein, remote control of a client that does not maintain a persistent data network link can be conducted. Furthermore, key-mapping applications, DLL-based middle-ware, and other interface modules traditionally required to implement control of a remote device can be limited or avoided.

  • Patent number: 8811196
    Abstract: Remote field testing of mobile communication devices is provided herein. By way of example, an IP gateway of a target mobile network can be monitored. A mobile originated data packet associated with a test device can be updated or translated to include information of a device that is activated on the mobile network. Likewise, a mobile network originated data packet, routed to the activated device and/or identifying the test device, can be forwarded to the test device. As described herein, two way data exchange between the mobile network and the test device can be implemented even if the test device is not pre-activated on the mobile network. Further, an interface for the two way communication can comprise any suitable Internet Protocol (IP) network, enabling application testing remote from wireless access points of the mobile network.

  • Patent number: 8284682

By way of example, network initiated data received at a mobile device or like device activated on a mobile network can be monitored. Further, an over the air (OTA) message sent by the mobile network to the monitored device can be identified and forwarded to a test device. Additionally, an IP gateway of the mobile network can be monitored for mobile originated pull messages or network originated push messages associated with or identifying the test device. A data translator can reconfigure or reroute data to and from the mobile device and mobile network utilizing information associated with the activated device. Accordingly, remote data exchange can be implemented even if the mobile device is not pre-activated on the mobile network.
