Patent number: 10555136Abstract: Methods and systems for managing a radio communication group call. One system includes a call controller configured to be communicatively coupled to a first communication device, a second communication device and a third communication device. The call controller includes an electronic processor configured to establish a half-duplex group call between the first communication device, the second communication device, and the third communication device. The processor receives, from the second communication device, an audio signal and receives, from the first communication device, a soft preemption talk request. The electronic processor establishes, in response to receiving the soft preemption talk request, a full-duplex private call between the first communication device and the second communication device and transmits audio of the full-duplex private call to the third communication device.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2018Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: MOTOROLA SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventor: David Bar-on

Patent number: 10397831Abstract: Systems and methods are described for load balancing between frequency bands based on bandwidth capacity. A load for a first frequency band and a load for a second frequency band may be determined, wherein a cell communicates with wireless devices over the first and second frequency bands. The determined loads may be adjusted based on a channel width for each frequency band and a duplexing scheme for each frequency band. And the adjusted loads may be balanced between the first frequency band and the second frequency band by instructing wireless devices in communication with the cell to change frequency bands used for communicating with the cell.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2016Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: Sprint Spectrum L.P.Inventors: Yun Sung Kim, Sanghoon Sung, Pinal Tailor, Dhaval Mehta

Patent number: 10237498Abstract: Extension devices such as upstream facing port devices (UFP devices) and downstream facing port devices (DFP devices) connect via an extension medium. When a UFP device and a DFP device pair with each other, DisplayPort video and/or audio information from a DisplayPort source device can be presented by a DisplayPort sink device, which are coupled to the UFP device and DFP device, respectively. In some embodiments, the DFP device may train a DisplayPort link to the DisplayPort sink device regardless of whether it is receiving actual data from a UFP device, and may provide placeholder data to the DisplayPort sink device in order to keep the link active. The DFP device may then replace the placeholder data with the actual data from the UFP device, once received, and may thereby seamlessly switch the DisplayPort sink device from presenting placeholder data to presenting data from the DisplayPort source device.Type: GrantFiled: August 9, 2018Date of Patent: March 19, 2019Assignee: Icron Technologies CorporationInventors: Bhupinder Singh Rathore, Ardeshir Saghafi, Sukhdeep Singh Hundal
