Summary of the patent applications from Cisco Technology, Inc. on November 30th, 2023

Cisco Technology, Inc. has recently filed several patents related to various technologies and applications. These patents cover a range of areas including heat-exchangers for electronic systems, user equipment policies in mobile networks, network slice authentication and authorization, network connection selection based on slice considerations, Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology for location tracking, analyzing call transcripts for user experience improvement, enforcing access point policies, suggesting proactive security policies for applications, and evaluating identity providers for authentication in Wi-Fi identity federations.

In the area of heat-exchangers for electronic systems, Cisco has developed a modular system that can be mounted on a rack. The heat exchanger has separate paths for ambient air and recirculating air, with ducts connecting the two paths. Fan assemblies are used to propel air through the heat exchanger, and the housing for the electronic device has its own internal airflow path.

In the field of user equipment policies in mobile networks, Cisco has developed techniques for communicating a UE policy to a UE. This policy, called UE Route Selection Policy (URSP), includes a policy rule that associates an application and/or its traffic with a routing policy for 3GPP access. The patent application also describes methods for selective network slice authentication and authorization, simplifying the authentication process for user equipment accessing multiple network slices.

Cisco has also filed patents related to network connection selection based on slice considerations while roaming among multiple visited mobile networks. The techniques involve requesting registration for a network connection associated with a specific slice type and selecting the visited mobile network with the highest priority that offers the desired slice type.

In the area of Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology, Cisco has developed a system for broadcasting location tracking information to user devices in a venue. The patent application aims to determine the position of the user device within the venue based on ranging messages sent by the user device.

Cisco has also filed patents related to analyzing call transcripts for identifying cues indicating a poor user experience and optimizing network paths for online applications based on these cues. Additionally, they have developed a device that enforces access point policies by sending disciplinary messages to computing devices that deviate from the access point's multi-user uplink policy.

In the field of proactive security policies for applications, Cisco has developed a system that suggests security policies based on the software composition and runtime behavior of applications. The system applies clustering algorithms to generate multiple cluster sets and determines and applies security policies to each cluster set.

Lastly, Cisco has filed a patent related to evaluating identity providers (IDPs) for authenticating users in Wi-Fi identity federations. The process helps with onboarding different IDPs by determining a person's electronic identity and attributes using a standard, establishing trust for a user, and utilizing the same trust determination across multiple systems.
