US 2022/0030415 A1 · 5G AND SATELLITE PARALLEL SERVICE

Abstract

Embodiments are directed towards employing parallel satellite and wire transmissions to facilitate 5G communications. A network origination system receives, via 5G communication, a message from an origination device for distribution to a destination device. The network origination system determines a priority of the message and selects a transmission mechanism—wire transmission, satellite transmission, or parallel transmission—in which to transmit the message to the network destination system based on the priority. The network origination system transmits the message to a network destination system via the selected transmission mechanism. The network destination system forwards the message to the destination device and determines if the message is tagged for the parallel transmission. If the message is tagged for parallel transmission, the network destination system determines if the message is received via wire transmission and satellite transmission within a time window associated with a transmission time obtained from the message.

A system, comprising

a network origination system that includes:
a first memory that stores first computer instructions;
a first processor that executes the first computer instructions to perform actions, the actions including:
receiving, via 5G communication, a message from a message origination device for distribution to a message destination device;
selecting a network destination system associated with the message destination device;
determining a priority of the message;
selecting a transmission mechanism in which to transmit the message to the network destination system based on the priority, the transmission mechanism being selected from one of wire transmission, satellite transmission, or parallel transmission via both wire and satellite transmission;
in response to selection of the parallel transmission, tagging the message to indicate that the message is being transmitted to the network destination system via both the wire transmission and the satellite transmission;
and
transmitting the message to the network destination system via the selected transmission mechanism.

A method, comprising

receiving, at a network origination system via 5G communication, a message from a message origination device for distribution to a message destination device;
selecting, by the network origination system, a network destination system associated with the message destination device;
determining, by the network origination system, a priority of the message;
selecting, by the network origination system, a transmission mechanism in which to transmit the message to the network destination system based on the priority, the transmission mechanism being selected from one of wire transmission, satellite transmission, or parallel transmission via both wire and satellite transmission;
in response to selection of the parallel transmission, tagging, by the network origination system, the message with a flag to indicate that the message is being transmitted to the network destination system via both the wire transmission and the satellite transmission;
and
transmitting, by the network origination system, the message to the network destination system via the selected transmission mechanism.

4 more elements

A method, comprising:

receiving, at a network destination system, a message from a network origination system via one of wire transmission, satellite transmission, or parallel transmission via both wire and satellite transmission;
obtaining, by the network destination system, at least one transmission time from the message indicating an expected time of arrival of the message via the wire transmission or the satellite transmission;
determining, by the network destination system, if the message is tagged for the parallel transmission;
in response to the message being tagged for the parallel transmission, determining, by the network destination system, if the message is received from via the wire transmission and the satellite transmission within a time window associated with the at least one transmission time;
and
transmitting, by the network destination system, the message to the message destination device.
