Patent number: 9106665Abstract: Disclosed procedures automatically identify a carrier-authorized mobile station and verify an account related identifier associated with the device, in response to start-up of an application in the device. Application start-up causes the device to send a request to an application server, with the device's current IP address, MTN and a device identifier such as MEID or ESN. The server queries an AAA system of the network to retrieve the MTN that has been assigned the IP address. If the retrieved MTN matches the MTN passed to the server in the request, the server queries a network database such as DMD for the device identifier associated with the MTN. A match of the device identifier retrieved from the network database with that passed to the server via the request indicates authenticity of the requesting device and its MTN.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2012Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: Cellco PartnershipInventors: Shahid Ahmed, Venkat Gaddam

Patent number: 8732810Abstract: A persistent connection is used for real-time or near real-time data transfer from a push platform on a network to a mobile station. To establish and maintain the persistent connection between the mobile station and push platform on the network, various protocols are defined over a packet connection between the mobile station and push platform. The real-time or near real-time data is pushed or sent by the push platform to the mobile station, as the data becomes available from a data source. In particular, heartbeat messages are used to determine whether or not the persistent connection is alive and available for real-time or near real-time data transfer. When the persistent connection is lost, the mobile station uses a retry connection scheme based on the number of connection attempts made by the mobile station for establishing a new persistent connection to the push platform.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2011Date of Patent: May 20, 2014Assignee: Cellco PartnershipInventors: Venkat Gaddam, Shahid Ahmed, Sankar Shanmugam, SM Masudur Rahman, William Cory Hawkins
