Patent number: 10965643Abstract: A computer device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to select to use an access point name (APN) table to be received from a wireless access network and attach to the wireless access network. The processor may be further configured to execute the instructions to receive a Protocol Configuration Options (PCO) message from the wireless access network; retrieve the APN table from the received PCO message; select an APN from the retrieved APN table; and connect to a packet data network associated with the selected APN via the wireless access network using the selected APN.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2019Date of Patent: March 30, 2021Assignee: Verizon Patent And Licensing Inc.Inventors: Andrew Youtz, Warren Hojilla Uy, Siegfried Erhard Eichinger, James Mathison, Christopher M.

Publication number: 20200169339Abstract: A fixed wireless access device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to activate a Fifth Generation (5G) scanning mode and scan for 5G wireless signals associated with a provider that is also associated with the fixed wireless access device. The processor may be further configured to detect a 5G wireless signal associated with the provider; determine a signal strength for the detected 5G wireless signal; and generate an indication of the determined signal strength to be displayed in a user interface associated with the fixed wireless access device.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 28, 2020Publication date: May 28, 2020Inventors: Samirkumar Patel, Xin Wang, Paul R. Mcdonough, Andrew E. Youtz, Lily Zhu, Arda Aksu, Balaji L. Raghavachari, Siegfried Erhard Eichinger, Christopher M. Schmidt, Jignesh S. Panchal

Patent number: 5758707Abstract: Metallic bodies are heated up to a predetermined temperature between the solidus and the liquidus to produce a semisolid state by supplying the metallic bodies with different amounts of energy over time. The metallic bodies are initially heated with a higher amount of energy, whereafter the supply of energy is lowered. Varying amounts of energy may also be employed to control the desired temperature as a function of shaping pressure or cycle time of the shaping machine.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 1997Date of Patent: June 2, 1998Assignee: Buhler AGInventors: Paul Jung, Siegfried Erhard, Max Moesli, Kenneth P.
