20130191544 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO ALIGN NETWORK DATA ACCESS - Information is provided to a mobile device while reducing the number of traffic channels established over a predetermined time period. A pull client on a mobile device receives requests for information from applications on the mobile device. The pull client creates a timing list which includes the timing requirements for each application. Applications that have overlapping timing requirements are grouped together into the same timing group. Once the time for creating a traffic channel for one of the groups arrives, a traffic channel is created between the mobile device and a carrier gateway. Information for each respective application within the same timing group is obtained through the network using the same traffic channel. When the requested information is provided to all applications within the same timing group, the traffic channel is released after a predetermined time. The method is repeated for a next timing group entry. | 07-25-2013 |
20140379935 | MOBILE DEVICE PERCEPTIVE AUDIO AND VIDEO QUALITY ANALYSIS USING ONBOARD TEST SIGNALS - Techniques described herein may use perceptual quality measurement techniques to test and/or evaluate communication sessions between mobile devices. A method may include receiving, by a mobile device and as part of an audio or video call with a second mobile device, a streamed version of a reference audio or video file; and reading a version of the reference audio or video file that was previously stored locally to the mobile device. The method may further include calculating, based on a comparison of the streamed version of the reference audio or video file to the version of the reference audio video file that was stored locally, a perceptual quality score for the streamed version of the reference audio or video file. | 12-25-2014 |
20150109908 | MANAGING HIDDEN SECURITY FEATURES IN USER EQUIPMENT - A device determines whether a PTT application is authenticated to access a first API and a second API, and prevents the PTT application from accessing the first and second APIs when the PTT application is not authenticated. The device permits the PTT application to access the first and second APIs when the PTT application is authenticated, and modifies, via the first API, a timer that dictates when the device checks for traffic received from a network. The device establishes, via the second API, a data connection with the network, and determines, based on the data connection, a QoS framework for the network. The device utilizes the PTT application and the timer to establish a PTT session with another device via the network, and prioritizes, based on the QoS framework, PTT traffic provided in the PTT session with the other device. | 04-23-2015 |
20150110005 | PRIORITIZED PUSH-TO-TALK SESSION USING QUALITY OF SERVICE (QoS) OVER AN INTERNET PROTOCOL MULTIMEDIA SUBSYSTEM (IMS) - A device establishes a quality of service (QoS) framework with a network connected to the device. The device includes a push-to-talk (PTT) application, and the QoS framework assigns priorities to different types of traffic associated with the device. The device utilizes the PTT application to establish a PTT session with another device via the network, and prioritizes, based on the QoS framework, PTT traffic, provided in the PTT session, over best effort traffic during the PTT session with the other device. | 04-23-2015 |
20150120549 | MOBILE AUTHENTICATION FOR WEB PAYMENTS USING SINGLE SIGN ON CREDENTIALS - Systems and methods for mobile authentication for web payments are disclosed. In some implementations, a proxy server receives, from a computing device different from a mobile device, a request from a user to process a web payment via a payment account associated with the mobile device, the web payment being associated with an online merchant. The proxy server verifies that the mobile device is associated with the user. The proxy server transmits, to a commerce server of the online merchant, payment information for the web payment in response to verifying that the mobile device is associated with the user. | 04-30-2015 |
20150121482 | MOBILE BASED LOGIN VIA WIRELESS CREDENTIAL TRANSFER - Systems and methods for mobile-based login via wireless credential transfer are disclosed. In some implementations, a proxy server receives a registration request for a receiver device for accessing a secure resource. The proxy server registers the receiver device in response to the registration request. The proxy server receives, from a transmitter device, information identifying the transmitter device along with authentication credentials for authenticating the receiver device to access the secure resource. The proxy server identifies the receiver device based on the information identifying the transmitter device. The proxy server forwards, to the receiver device, the authentication credentials for authenticating access of the receiver device to the secure resource. | 04-30-2015 |
20150121496 | REMOTE AUTHENTICATION USING MOBILE SINGLE SIGN ON CREDENTIALS - Systems and methods for remote authentication using mobile single sign on credentials are disclosed. In some implementations, a proxy server receives, from a web access device, a request to access a secure online resource via the web access device. The proxy server receives, from a mobile device different from the web access device, one or more credentials for accessing the secure online resource. The proxy server determines that a geographic distance between the web access device and the mobile device is less than a geographic distance threshold. Upon determining that the geographic distance between the web access device and the mobile device is less than the geographic distance threshold, the proxy server enables the web access device access to the secure online resource. | 04-30-2015 |
20150121501 | CONNECTED AUTHENTICATION DEVICE USING MOBILE SINGLE SIGN ON CREDENTIALS - Systems and methods for device-based authentication are disclosed. In some implementations, a device receives a Single Sign On PIN from a backend server. The device transmits, to a token server, the Single Sign On PIN and credentials of a subscriber identity module (SIM) to request a token for accessing a network resource via a computer different from the device. The token is associated with a user account. The device receives the token from the token server. The device stores the token at a local memory of the device. | 04-30-2015 |
