    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for optimum file transfers in a time-varying network environment. A method is provided for transmitting content in a data network. The method includes transmitting content at a selected transmission rate, and receiving one or more acknowledgement signals. The method also includes estimating a network delivery rate from the one or more acknowledgment signals, and adjusting the selected transmission rate of the content based on the network delivery rate.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus to optimize delivery of multicast content using probabilistic feedback. A method is provided for transmitting data from a server to a plurality of receiving terminals. The method includes transmitting the data from the server to the plurality of receiving terminals, and generating a random response value at each receiving terminal. The method also includes comparing the response value to an acknowledgement value at each receiving terminal, and transmitting an acknowledgment signal to the server from selected receiving terminals. The selected receiving terminals are a portion of the plurality of receiving terminals where the response value has a selected relationship to the acknowledgement value.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for encoding data in a communication network. In an aspect, a method is provided for coding data. The method includes generating one or more permutations of the data, determining weights associated with each permutation, calculating one or more code packets from each permutation based on the associated weights, and multiplexing the data and the one or more code packets into a code packet stream. In an aspect, an apparatus is provided for coding data. The apparatus includes permutation logic configured to generate one or more permutations of the data, and weight logic configured to determine weights associated with each permutation. The apparatus also includes processing logic configured to calculate one or more code packets from each permutation based on the associated weights, and a multiplexer configured to multiplex the data and the one or more code packets into a code packet stream.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for conditional access of non real-time (NRT) content in a distribution system. A method includes encrypting NRT content with a control word (CW) to generate encrypted NRT content, providing the CW to entitlement control message (ECM) generators, receiving ECMs from the ECM generators, wherein each ECM comprises a unique encryption of the CW to provide conditional access to the CW, and providing the encrypted NRT content and the ECMs for transmission over a distribution network. An apparatus includes a synchronizer configured to provide a CW to ECM generators and receive ECMs from the ECM generators, wherein each ECM comprises a unique encryption of the CW to provide conditional access to the CW, and a management module configured to encrypt the NRT content with the CW to generate encrypted NRT content and provide the encrypted NRT content and the ECMs for transmission over the distribution network.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method of mapping a short message service (SMS) information from a first communications system to a corresponding message in a second, different cellular system is claimed. SMS information having a format required by the first communication system is received. The SMS information is mapped into a format required by the second communication system. Additional information is appended, if necessary, or information is removed as being extraneous information, if necessary, as required by the second communication system.
