Patent number: 11659446Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for enabling a mesh network node to switch from a base station role to a user equipment role relative to a second mesh network node, and vice versa. By switching roles in this manner, the mesh network node may be able to benefit from increased uplink or downlink speed in the new role. This role reversal technique is particularly useful when using wireless protocols such as LTE that are asymmetric and allow differing throughput on uplink and downlink connections. Methods for determining whether to perform role reversal are disclosed, and methods for using role reversal in mesh networks comprising greater than two nodes are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: November 24, 2020Date of Patent: May 23, 2023Assignee: Parallel Wireless, Inc.Inventors: Steven Paul Papa, Rajesh Kumar Mishra, Kaitki Agarwal, Sridhar Donepudi, Sumit Garg, Kartik Shashikant Raval, Prashanth Rao

Patent number: 11265954Abstract: In this invention, we disclose methods for enabling ad hoc cellular base station functionality within a user equipment when the connection quality between a base station and the user equipment is limited or nonexistent. These methods include measuring a connection quality between a user equipment and its serving base station. If the connection quality is below a threshold, the user equipment can enable its internal ad hoc cellular base station functionality. This is done by running a software within the user equipment that (a) checks the connection quality periodically, and (b) enables ad hoc cellular base station functionality of the connection threshold dips below a certain value. In one embodiment, that threshold could be the same threshold value that a user equipment would use if it were making a decision to handoff to another base station based on poor connection quality.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2020Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: Parallel Wireless, Inc.Inventors: Rajesh Kumar Mishra, Kaitki Agarwal, Steven Paul Papa, Sridhar Donepudi
