A process for communicating utility-related data over at least one network is described, the process includes: collecting utility-related data at a hub device during a first predetermined period of time; securing the utility-related data at the hub device using digital envelopes during the first predetermined period of time; initiating by the hub device an autonomous wake up process during a second predetermined period of time; sending the secure utility-related data over a first network to a designated server via at least one User Datagram, protocol (UDP) message during the second predetermined period of time; and receiving an acknowledgement of receipt message of the at least one UDP message from the designated server; wherein the first and second predetermined periods of time typically do not overlap, but may overlap.

A data transmission method may include: receiving, by a core network node, a first packet from user equipment UE or an application server AS; translating the first packet according to non-Internet Protocol IP data transmission information, to obtain a second packet; and sending the second packet using a data transmission channel. The embodiments of the present application further provide a related data transmission device and system. In the embodiments of the present application, a scenario in which a sending party and a receiving party support different protocols is supported by means of packet translation. In addition, performing packet translation according to specific non-IP data transmission information may strengthen negotiation capabilities of the two parties, so that the solution has stronger operability and better practicality.

A system that transmits encapsulated media receives a first request to establish a tunnel with a stream based transport layer, the first request including a tag. The system receives a second request to establish the tunnel with a datagram based transport layer, the second request including the tag. The system establishes the tunnel with the stream based transport layer and receives the encapsulated media over the stream based transport layer. The system establishes the datagram based transport layer for the tunnel in addition to the stream based transport layer and receives the encapsulated media over the datagram based transport layer. The system then releases the stream based transport layer.

The present technology relates to a transmission apparatus, a transmission method, a reception apparatus, and at reception method that enable a plurality of transport protocols to coexist. The transmission apparatus generates transport protocol selection information used for selecting a transport protocol to be used in a specific service from a plurality of transport protocols conforming to a predetermined standard, and transmits, together with the transport protocol selection information, a content provided by the specific service according to the transport protocol set in the transport protocol selection information. The present technology is applicable to, for example, IP packet broadcasting.

It is provided a method, comprising encapsulating plural packet data units into a datagram of a user datagram protocol, wherein each of the plural packet data units comprises a respective header of a tunneling protocol and a respective user data packet, and each of the headers indicates a length of the respective packet data unit.

A packet-centric wireless system includes: a wireless base station communicating via a transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP) to a first data network; one or more host workstations communicating via TCP/IP to the first data network; one or more subscriber customer premise equipment (CPE) stations coupled with the wireless base station over a shared bandwidth via TCP/IP over a wireless medium; and one or more subscriber workstations coupled via TCP/IP to each of the subscriber CPE stations over a second network. The system can allocate shared bandwidth among the subscriber CPE stations to optimize end-user quality of service (QoS). The first data network includes at least one of: a wireline network; a wireless network; a local area network (LAN); and a wide area network (WAN). The second network includes at least one of: a wireline network; a wireless network; a local area network (LAN); and. a wide area network (WAN).

A messaging proxy system is disclosed for the purpose of delivering data in the form of a portable message format from a producer running on a mobile or non-mobile computer, over any wireless network, by passing this data through an intermediary proxy computer program, to one or more recipients running on mobile or non-mobile computers. The system includes a message proxy computer program with at least one pluggable transport protocol adapter. The proxy contains a command subsystem for sending and receiving command- and message-tokens to and from the mobile clients. The system further includes a thin messaging middleware client to run on mobile devices. The thin messaging middleware client includes at least one pluggable protocol adapter. The client also comprises a command subsystem for sending and receiving command- and message-tokens to and from the proxy The proxy also contains a communication subsystem for sending and receiving messages via a state of the art message oriented middleware.

The present invention discloses a system and a method for controlling multiple computerized mobile devices in a mass spectator event, such as a music show, sporting event, political event and the like. The present invention also discloses a method of sending data and commands through UDP Multicast protocol by overloading an existing UDP multicast. The present invention also discloses a method of synchronizing computerized mobile devices in order to perform specific actions simultaneously such as playing a media file, vibrating the mobile device, turning on or off the camera light of a mobile device, playing a particular sound, displaying a text and the like. The present invention also discloses coordinating the computerized mobile devices in various manners.

A system establishes a main tunnel between a tunneling client and a tunneling server using a first socket, the main tunnel including a corresponding tunnel identifier and Internet Protocol (IP) address. The system traverses the encapsulated media over the main tunnel during the telecommunication session and then determines that a cloned tunnel is needed for the telecommunication session. The system establishes a cloned tunnel between the tunneling client and the tunneling server using a second socket that has been marked as a cloned tunnel candidate, where the cloned tunnel includes the corresponding tunnel identifier and IP address of the main tunnel. The system then traverses the encapsulated media over the cloned tunnel instead of the main tunnel during the telecommunication session.

A system that transmits encapsulated media receives a first request to establish a tunnel with a stream based transport layer, the first request including a tag. The system receives a second request to establish the tunnel with a datagram based transport layer, the second request including the tag. The system establishes the tunnel with the stream based transport layer and receives the encapsulated media over the stream based transport layer. The system establishes the datagram based transport layer for the tunnel in addition to the stream based transport layer and receives the encapsulated media over the datagram based transport layer. The system then releases the stream based transport layer.
