Abstract: Techniques for integrating disparate headend traffic ingress services with disparate backend services are disclosed herein. The techniques may include receiving, at a classification and forwarding node of a networked computing environment, a data packet encapsulated according to a first encapsulation protocol that is supported by the classification and forwarding node. The techniques may also include determining, by the classification and forwarding node, that the data packet is to be sent to a service from among a group of services associated with the networked computing environment. The classification and forwarding node may also determine whether the first encapsulation protocol is supported by the service. Based at least in part on determining that the service supports a second encapsulation protocol different than the first encapsulation protocol, the classification and forwarding node may encapsulate the data packet according to the second encapsulation protocol and send the data packet to the service.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for wireless communications. A wireless device may inform a base station of a failure of a beam failure recovery procedure for a secondary cell. The wireless device may include an indicator of the failure in a report providing, or configured to provide, values for signal strength or other characteristic of a downlink signal. The indicator may be in addition to, and/or may replace, one or more indicators of signal strength or other characteristic.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Wireless communications systems may support beamformed transmissions between devices (e.g., to improve coverage range). The beamformed transmissions may depend on discovery and maintenance of receive and transmit beams over which a given device may communicate with another device. Various receive and transmit beams for a given device may be compared using reference signals. As the number of devices attempting to access a cell increases, the number of reference signals to be transmitted may scale proportionally. Large numbers of reference signals may flood time-frequency resources of the system and/or require excessive processing at a mobile device. Scrambling sequences for reference signals may be employed to improve efficiency of resource usage. In aspects, the scrambling sequences may be implicitly determined (e.g., based on resources over which the access request was transmitted).

Abstract: An example method may include identifying upload packets at a VPN client operating on a client device, and the upload packets include a header with a destination server as the destination field and the client device as the source field, adding, via the VPN client, an additional header identifying the client device in an additional source field and identifying an interconnect server center (ISC) device in an additional destination field, to create modified upload packets, receiving the modified upload packets from the client device at the ISC device, replacing, via the ISC device, the additional source field of the modified upload packets with a new additional source field identifying the ISC device and replacing the additional destination field of the modified upload packets with a new additional destination field identifying a VPN server to create further modified upload packets, and forwarding the further modified upload packets to the VPN server for routing to the destination server.

Abstract: A terminal is disclosed, which is capable of appropriately determining a resource to which a DCI is mapped. A DCI receiver (203) receives first and second downlink (DL) control signals, and a signal demultiplexer (202) demultiplexes a DL data signal from a received signal, using the first and the second DL control signals. The DCI receiver (203) identifies a resource for the second DL control signal based on information on the first DL control signal, or information on the DL data signal, indicated by the first DL control signal.

Abstract: A system for multicast traffic management in an overlay tunnel fabric is provided. The system can operate a first switch and a second switch of the fabric as part of a virtual switch. The virtual switch can operate as a gateway for the fabric. The system can efficiently deploy a rendezvous point (RP) for a multicast group at the first switch. During operation, the system can determine whether to synchronize a registration packet associated with the multicast group with the second switch based on a type of a first ingress connection associated with the registration packet. The system can then determine whether to receive subsequent registration packets for the multicast group based on the type of the first ingress connection and reception of a join request for the multicast group. The type of a respective connection indicates whether the connection includes an overlay tunnel.

Abstract: A radio network device is operative to transmit uplink data on a physical uplink shared channel aggregating two or more contiguous slots. The device is further operative to transmit, in addition to the uplink data, Uplink Control Information (UCI) in at least one of the aggregated slots. The UCI may comprise a HARQ ACK/NACK. The UCI is configured in response to Downlink Control Information (DCI) received from a serving network node. The DCI also includes a UL scheduling grant for the physical uplink channel. The UCI may be configured in the physical uplink channel transmission in a variety of ways. Various amounts of frequency resource (e.g., subcarriers) may be allocated to UCI. The subcarriers may be non-contiguous. In slot aggregation, the UCI subcarriers may frequency hop from slot to slot. The UCI may be encoded differently in different slots, to facilitate early decoding by a receiver (which may, for example immediately prepare a re-transmission in the case of a NACK).

Abstract: A network device can automatically select an execution plan from a set of possible execution plans that cause a first set of traffic assignments in a network to be changed to a second set of traffic assignments. A traffic assignment indicates assignments of the traffic to one or more tunnels, internal routes and/or peer links to be utilized for routing traffic received at provider edge routers through a network to prefixes. A traffic assignment can have various parameters such as bandwidth, transmission costs etc. Each execution plan has one or more steps, and each step has one or more traffic assignment changes progressing from the first set of traffic assignments to the second set of traffic assignments. The network device can automatically select an execution plan based on an evaluation metric determined for each execution plan. The evaluation metric can be a cost based metric or a quality based metric.

Abstract: A method for data communication between a first node and a second node over a data path includes estimating a rate at which loss events occur, where a loss event is either an unsuccessful delivery of a single packet to the second data node or an unsuccessful delivery of a plurality of consecutively transmitted packets to the second data node, and sending redundancy messages at the estimate rate at which loss events occur.

Abstract: Instead of users (e.g., independent owners/operators of different satellites) having to calculate orbit determination for each satellite themselves, an orbit determination service automatically calculates the orbit determination (OD) based on a user request. The calculated OD can then be used by a satellite ground station service to determine appropriate orientations for a ground station antenna in order to communicate with the satellite. In some embodiments, the OD service uses information from the calculations of ODs for multiple satellites and users to update a model used in the OD calculation, for example, to provide a more accurate model for Earth's atmosphere to be applied in subsequent OD calculations. In some embodiments, the OD service uses a user-provided computer-aided drawing (CAD) file of the satellite to produce or tune models specific to the satellite, for example, to generate more accurate models for solar radiation pressure and ballistic drag.

Abstract: A networking environment includes a first node and a second node configured as Ethernet Virtual Private Networking (EVPN) peers on an EVPN subnet that is coupled to a Layer 3 VPN over a core network. The first node receives a first multicast join request from a third node in the core network, the first multicast join request including a source address and multicast group address of a source of a multicast stream. The first node determines that the source address and the multicast group address for the source are behind the EVPN subnet at the second node. The first node sends to the second node, a control plane join request message that includes a receiver identifier that identifies the third node as a receiver of the multicast stream, the receiver identifier enabling the second node to forward the multicast stream directly into the core network to the third node.

The method includes at least one of transmitting data to and receiving data from a primary cell using a first Radio Frequency (RF) path, and, when a secondary cell is deactivated, operating a second RF path to perform searching and measurement with respect to at least one target cell at a frequency different from a frequency of the primary cell.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for forwarding data messages between edge nodes that perform stateful processing on flows between a logical network and an external network. At a particular edge node, the method receives a data message belonging to a flow. The edge nodes use a deterministic algorithm to select one of the edge nodes to perform processing for each flow. The method identifies a first edge node to perform processing for the flow in a previous configuration and a second edge node to perform processing for the flow in a new configuration according to the algorithm. When the first and second edge nodes are different, the method uses a probabilistic filter and a stateful connection tracker to determine whether the flow existed prior to a particular time. When the flow did not exist prior to that time, the method selects the second edge node for the received data message.
