  • Patent number: 10880414
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a processor that acquires first and second packet groups at a predetermined location in a network. The first and second packet groups are wirelessly transmitted from first and second wireless communication devices, respectively, and received by one of a plurality of wireless base stations connected to the network. The processor accumulates the first packet group and the second packet group in a memory in an arrival order. The processor detects a consecutive number of packets in which a first packet among the first packet group and a second packet among the second packet group are accumulated alternately and consecutively one packet at a time in a time series. The processor determines whether the first and second wireless communication devices are connected to a same wireless base station based on the consecutive number.

  • Patent number: 10291505
    Abstract: A computer obtains a first packet group transmitted wirelessly by a first wireless communication apparatus and a second packet group transmitted wirelessly by a second wireless communication apparatus. The computer then detects a first non-communication period, during which there are no packets transmitted by the first wireless communication apparatus for a prescribed time or longer, and also detects a second non-communication period, during which there are no packets transmitted by the second wireless communication apparatus for the prescribed time or longer. The computer then determines based on an overlap between the first and second non-communication periods whether the first and second wireless communication apparatuses are connected to the same wireless base station.

  • Patent number: 9954748
    Abstract: In an analysis apparatus, when detecting each packet communicated via a network, an update unit updates statistical information that is stored in a continuous storage area of a storage unit and that indicates the communication state of the network for a first cycle. Then, a first processing unit reads the statistical information from the storage unit at every first cycle, and processes the statistical information and initializes the statistical information in the storage unit. A second processing unit reads partial statistical information that is part of the statistical information from the storage unit at every second cycle shorter than the first cycle, and processes the partial statistical information and initializes the partial statistical information in the storage unit.

  • Patent number: 9935886
    Abstract: An operation unit detects that a received first ACK packet is an ACK packet transmitted in response to a single data packet. The operation unit determines whether to calculate a round trip time by using reception time of the first ACK packet on the basis of a window size included in the first ACK packet and a window size included in a second ACK packet acquired immediately before the first ACK packet. If the operation unit determines to calculate the round trip time, the operation unit outputs the round trip time calculated by using the reception time of the first ACK packet.

  • Publication number: 20160285730
    Abstract: An apparatus acquires a packet transmitted between a transmission-terminal and a reception-terminal, and stores the acquired packet in association with a time at which the packet has been acquired. When a first bandwidth of data packets transmitted by the transmission-terminal during a time-period from acquisition of a first ACK-packet transmitted by the reception-terminal to acquisition of a second ACK-packet transmitted by the reception-terminal subsequently to the first ACK-packet, is smaller than a second bandwidth or greater than a third bandwidth, the apparatus determines the second ACK-packet to be a packet not desired to measure a bandwidth, where the second bandwidth is calculated using an acquisition interval between first and second data packets transmitted respectively after waiting for the first and second ACK-packets, and the third bandwidth is calculated using an acquisition interval between two adjacent data packets including a data packet transmitted without waiting for an ACK-packet.
