  • Publication number: 20240129212
    Abstract: A data transmission system for a mobile platform comprises non-volatile data storage media, a network interface, and control circuitry. The control circuitry is configured to establish a first connection with one or more onboard passenger service devices providing a passenger service at the mobile platform using the network interface. The control circuitry is further configured to receive a set of system log data from the one or more onboard passenger service devices via the network interface and store one or more log signatures in the non-volatile data storage media. The control circuitry is further configured to detect faults fault related to onboard passenger service devices, store transmission rule data that includes rules for filtering system log data, filter the set of system log data based on the transmission rule data, and transmit a subset of system log data to the remote computing device via the network interface.

  • Publication number: 20230275943
    Abstract: A communication system comprises an onboard server situated onboard a mobile platform and a remote server situated outside the mobile platform. The remote server is configured to generate one or more linear media channels for use by the onboard server. The communication system further comprises a virtual media client situated onboard the mobile platform. The virtual media client is configured to receive linear media channels from the onboard server and transmit performance data to the onboard server. The onboard server is configured to receive one or more media requests from a plurality of user media clients onboard the mobile platform. The one or more media requests specify one or more linear media channels.

  • Patent number: 11502924
    Abstract: Control circuitry is configured to establish a first connection with one or more onboard passenger service devices using a network interface. The control circuitry is further configured to receive a set of system log data from the one or more onboard passenger service devices via the network interface and store one or more log signatures in non-volatile data storage media. The control circuitry is further configured to detect a first fault related to a first onboard passenger service device of the one or more onboard passenger service devices and store a first set of transmission rule data in the non-volatile data storage media. The control circuitry is further configured to filter the set of system log data, establish a second connection with a remote computing device using the network interface, and transmit a subset of system log data to the remote computing device via the network interface.

  • Publication number: 20210067428
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and related technologies for device monitoring are described. In certain aspects, network traffic data is analyzed to determine one or more devices associated with a network. The network may be a remote network. The network traffic data may further be used to determine one or more non-active devices associated with the network.
