Virtual Desktop Accelerator Protocol Translation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing remote desktop connection methods are limited by network gateways that only support specific communication protocols, such as TCP, restricting data throughput due to bandwidth limitations and network constraints, and lack flexibility in using enhanced protocols like UDP Plus without significant hardware or software changes.
Innovation Solution
The system allows a client device to establish a first connection with a server using a supported protocol like TCP and then switch to a proprietary protocol, such as UDP Plus, for improved bandwidth optimization, using a virtual desktop accelerator proxy to manage authentication and data transfer securely and efficiently.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If a network gateway uses standard protocols like TCP for remote desktop connections, then compatibility and security are maintained, but data throughput and bandwidth efficiency are limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a protocol translation intermediary that sits between the client and network gateway. This intermediary translates proprietary high-efficiency protocols into standard TCP protocols that the network gateway can handle, enabling both protocol flexibility and gateway compatibility simultaneously. The intermediary acts as a mediator that converts between different protocol families without requiring gateway modification.
Solution Approach 2:
The system segments the remote desktop connection into multiple components: a client-side proprietary protocol handler, a network gateway with standard protocol support, and a server-side receiver. By segmenting the connection path, the patent allows each component to operate in its optimal protocol mode while maintaining end-to-end functionality.
2Speed
If a proprietary protocol like UDP Plus is used for remote desktop communication, then bandwidth optimization and speed are improved, but compatibility with existing network gateway infrastructure deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The protocol translation intermediary enables the use of fast proprietary protocols like UDP Plus without requiring changes to existing network gateway infrastructure. The intermediary handles the complexity of protocol translation, making implementation easier while maintaining high connection speeds.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent adds a new dimension to the system architecture by introducing a translation layer that operates at the protocol level. This dimensional addition allows the system to simultaneously support both proprietary high-speed protocols and standard gateway protocols without direct modification of existing infrastructure.
3Reliability
If network gateway protocols are restricted to ensure security, then system security is maintained, but data transmission efficiency and user experience deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The protocol translation intermediary maintains security by operating within the secure TCP framework supported by the network gateway while enabling efficient proprietary protocol communication. The intermediary ensures that all traffic passing through the gateway adheres to security requirements while allowing optimized protocols to be used for actual data transmission.
Data Source
AI summary
In particular embodiments, a method includes receiving a request for a signature verification. In response to the request, signature data is encrypted. A first data size associated with the signature data is determined. A second data size associated with data of a data packet is determined. The method includes comparing the sum of the first data size and the second data size to a pre-determined data size. When the sum is less than or equal to the pre-determined data size, the encrypted signature data is included in the data packet; and the data packet is transmitted over a network.
