Patent number: 10708809Abstract: The present invention pertains to improved communication quality of service in communication networks. A customer may pay different fees for different tiers of service relating to voice quality and bandwidth access. Higher service tiers may guarantee that a specific vocoder or bit rate is used; or guarantee that communication is supported by parameters such as maximum allowed dropped calls rate, jitter and latency. Availability may be guaranteed per the contract between subscribers and service providers. Different tiers may be associated with customers' records for billing purposes. High end devices may be afforded higher voice quality by comparing a given device to a look up table indicating what service level is associated therewith. A calling device or a receiving device may ask the other device to change the vocoder or bit rate to ensure a higher quality call. The user may also change the quality level before or during a call.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2019Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: PRIVILEGE WIRELESS LLCInventors: Alexander Poltorak, Vladimir Kaminsky

Patent number: 9763132Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to improved communication quality of service (QoS) in communication networks. Higher service tiers may guarantee that a specific vocoder or bit rate is used. They may also guarantee that communication is supported by such parameters as maximum allowed dropped calls rate, maximum allowed jitter and maximum allowed latency. Network availability may be guaranteed per Service Level Agreements that are the part of the contract between a subscriber and a service provider. The network may also afford high end devices higher voice quality by comparing a given high end device to a look up table, which indicates what level of service is associated with that device. A calling device or a receiving device may ask the other device to change to a more robust vocoder or bit rate to ensure higher quality communication. Furthermore, the quality level may be adjusted before or during a call.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2014Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: Privilege Wireless LLCInventors: Alexander Poltorak, Vladimir Kaminsky
