  • Patent number: 8532147
    Abstract: A method and system are provided for preventing data loss in a VoIP system. In particular, during a VoIP call, it is determined whether incoming ringing on a POTS line causes an unacceptable level of signal loss or errors. If so, for subsequent VoIP calls, the CO handling calls to the POTS line is instructed to either answer each call with a busy signal or automatically forward calls to the POTS line to the VoIP line or other selected telephone. Calling returns to normal upon ending of the VoIP call. In this manner, incoming ringing on the POTS line does not result in call dropping or lengthy retraining processes.

  • Patent number: 7386040
    Abstract: An improved ADSL modem is presented. The ADSL modem in cooperation with a remote ADSL modem will exchange manufacturer identification information during initial DSL system training to establish a DSL communication link. The improved ADSL modem may comprise a memory device containing system parameters and operational algorithms previously determined to maximize DSL link performance between ADSL modems manufactured by different vendors. The improved ADSL modem is well suited for central office applications as it provides a solution for optimizing system performance that is transparent to remotely located ADSL modems. An ADSL modem in accordance with the present invention may comprise a digital signal processor and a memory device configured to store appropriate system parameters and operational algorithms that provide an optimized DSL communication link once applied during system initialization. The present invention also provides a method for optimizing DSL system performance.

  • Publication number: 20070091875
    Abstract: A method and system for device mobility using application label switching in a mobile communication network are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises establishing an application session involving a first computing device, a second computing device, a client application and a server application. The application session includes, a first unbreakable session between the client application and the first computing device, a second unbreakable session between the server application and the second computing device, and one or more breakable sessions between the first computing device and the second computing device. The first unbreakable session and the second unbreakable session are maintained when the one or more breakable sessions terminate. One or more new breakable sessions are created when the one or more breakable sessions terminate. The application session is reestablished with the one or more new breakable sessions, the first unbreakable session and the second unbreakable session.

  • Publication number: 20040032780
    Abstract: Approaches to generating clock signals are presented in which a signal is received from a line and a clock signal is generated as a function of the received signal. The received signal has portions that are correlated to a cyclostationary disturbance that is present on the line. Hence, by setting the rising edge and the falling edge of the clock as a function of the received signal may result in a clock signal that is substantially synchronous to the cyclostationary signal on the line.
