LOW LATENCY WIRELESS PROTOCOL FOR AUDIO AND GAMING
20210119929 · 2021-04-22 ·

A wireless communication method and protocol for wireless RF transmission of data, e.g. audio data, with low latency. The method involves a fixed part (FP) serving as synchronization master, and one or more portable parts (PP) being synchronization slaves. The FP performs scanning between a set of supported channels within one limited frequency band, such as within an ISM band. Further, the FP performs collecting measures of RF interference level on at least a plurality of the supported channels in response to the scanning, preferably using own interference level measurement and by collecting RSSI data from the PP for the supported channels. In response to these measures of RF interference level, the FP executes a selection algorithm for selecting and re-selecting first and second different frequencies for respective first and second duplex RF bearers from the set of supported channels to select the channels with least RF interference. Finally, the FP transmits, in one frame of such as 1 ms to 3 ms length, the same data packet on both of said first and second duplex RF bearer frequencies to the PP. This provides a roboust and low latency wireless interface suitable for Human Interface Devices and audio devices, e.g. for gaining equipment.

SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPARATUS FOR USING ALTERNATIVE NUMBERS FOR ROUTING VOICE CALLS AND SHORT MESSAGES IN A COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK
20210045038 · 2021-02-11 ·

A system, method and computer-readable medium for allowing the use of an alternative numbering plan for delivering short messages to mobile subscribers using the public mobile telephone network is provided. Users of an enterprise or other closed networks as well as users that are not part of a closed network may send short messages destined to members of an enterprise or closed network from their mobile or other devices associated with their subscription using an alternative enterprise directory number, such as the office number, instead of the mobile number, such that the alternative number will be presented at the destination device as the originating number. The recipient may respond to the message by addressing the response to the enterprise or closed network number, and the response may be delivered to the originator's mobile or other device associated with their subscription.

Call routing using call forwarding options in telephony networks
10841755 · 2020-11-17 · ·

In one embodiment, a device receives a call from a caller that is initiated as a public switched telephone network (PSTN) call and directed to first contact information for a recipient's device. The call is forwarded using an unconditional call forwarding option to the device. The device retrieves second contact information for the recipient's user device. The second contact information is different from the first contact information used in the PSTN call. The device initiates a communication to the recipient's user device using the second contact information via a communication channel different from the PSTN. The communication avoids triggering the unconditional call forwarding option for the recipient's device. The device connects the call between the caller and the recipient's device upon initiating the communication. The device is in a call path of the call and performs a call feature for the call.
