Patent number: 12181588Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for a power management framework that can computationally minimize the power consumption of a device with Real-Time Kinematic (RTK) enabled. The disclosed framework can analyze the operating characteristics of a device (e.g., applications executing, movement, battery level, signal strength and current battery consumption of the device, and the like), which can provide an indication of the device's need for updated location information, and determine a frequency for updating RTK. Thus, the disclosed framework provides computerized mechanisms for the automatic optimization between the need for an RTK power update and the device's capabilities for actually performing the update.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2021Date of Patent: December 31, 2024Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Yuk Lun Li, Rohit Shirish Saraf, Praveen Nair, Ritika S.

Publication number: 20230318864Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide for the dynamic adjustment of traffic associated with audiovisual conferences or other types of communication sessions in situations where a network connection of one or more conference participants exhibits issues that may affect audio and/or video quality. The adjustment may include the determination at a particular conference participant (e.g., a particular User Equipment (“UE”)) of degraded network conditions, the generation of condensed conference information at the UE, and the outputting of the condensed conference information via the network. The condensed conference information may be included in control signaling. The condensed conference information may be used to generate reconstructed conference information, which may be distributed to other conference participants.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 13, 2023Publication date: October 5, 2023Applicant: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: John Aceron, Rohit Shirish Saraf, Andrew Philip Genualdi

Patent number: 11652857Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content providing, streaming and/or hosting systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods provide a novel conference framework that automatically determines and prioritizes speaker allocation within a conference in order to remedy and/or avoid conflicts between speakers so that a clear and decisive dialog can occur. The disclosed conference framework balances a determined weighting factor and queue management ranking of the conference to provide a prioritized speaker queue that enables all participants to speak without conflict or interruption. The disclosed systems and methods enable a prioritized, conflict-resolution based conferencing environment where orderly conferencing can occur while maintaining each participants rights to participate accordingly.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2020Date of Patent: May 16, 2023Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: John Aceron, Rohit Shirish Saraf, Bhumip Khasnabish, Serhad Doken

Patent number: 11617090Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for performing dynamic spectrum allocation and state shifting in order to provide high quality stateful services to user equipment (“UE”) that access the stateful services from different network locations. The dynamic spectrum allocation and state shifting may include tracking mobility of a UE accessing a stateful service using a first allocation of spectrum from a first Radio Access Network (“RAN”), predicting continued stateful service access via a second RAN, determining latency requirements of the stateful service, selecting a second allocation of spectrum at the second RAN with a frequency range that provides a first amount of latency, transferring the stateful service state to a Multi-Access Edge Computing (“MEC”) location that provides a second amount of latency for services accessed via the second RAN such that the first and second amounts of latency satisfy the performance requirements of the stateful service.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2022Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Bhumip Khasnabish, Rohit Shirish Saraf

The second device may be configured to: receive a first API call from the second UE to generate and provide a media clip; generate the media clip; and send the generated media clip to the first UE.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 13, 2021Publication date: February 16, 2023Inventors: Rohit Shirish Saraf, Indraneel Sen, Yuk Lun Li, Dan Sun -
Patent number: 11582311Abstract: Systems and methods provide an adaptive avatar-based real-time holographic communication service. End devices implement a customized avatar for holographic communications. With the assistance of a network edge platform, a user's facial motions and gestures are extracted in real time and applied to the customized avatar in the form of an augmented-reality-based or virtual-reality-based holographic entity. When a connection to the network edge platform is interrupted or not available, a master holographic entity provides a graceful fallback to a less resource-intensive avatar presentation using, for example, a user's prerecorded motions as a basis for rendering avatar movement. The customized avatar may be automatically adjusted/altered depending on with whom a user is communicating (e.g., a friend vs. a business associate) or a purpose for the communication (e.g., a professional meeting vs. a social activity).Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2020Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Rohit Shirish Saraf, Bhumip Khasnabish

Patent number: 11463517Abstract: Systems and methods described herein perform computer vision (CV) model training in a distributed edge network. Regional Multi-access Edge Compute (MEC) clusters are provided with a local copy of a CV model and a local synthetic training data generator. A MEC cluster receives client data requiring computer vision and applies the local copy of the CV model to the client data. The MEC cluster detects an exception to the local copy of the CV model and generates local synthetic training data for the exception. The MEC cluster updates, based on the local synthetic training data, the local copy of the CV model to form an updated local CV model. The MEC cluster sends the local synthetic training data and the updated local CV model to a central network. The central network uses the local synthetic training data to update a master CV model and any other interconnected CV models.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Rohit Shirish Saraf, Bhumip Khasnabish, John Aceron

Patent number: 11463554Abstract: Provided are systems and methods that use artificial intelligence and/or machine learning to dynamically allocate services at different times and at different network edge locations within a Multi-Access Edge (“MEC”) enhanced network based on a multitude of factors that change the priorities of the services at the different times and at the different edge locations. For instance, a MEC controller, controlling the allocation of resources at a particular edge location, may modify the allocation of services at that particular edge location at different times based on time and/or location sensitive events that occur at different times and that relate to different services, changing usage patterns that are derived from prior service utilization, and/or categorization of the services as permanent, time insensitive, or other categories of services with permissions to execute at different times from different edge locations.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2019Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Stephane Chaysinh, John A.
