Patent number: 11962370Abstract: A technique for improving wireless communication characteristics involving matching transmitter antenna patterns to receiver antenna patterns. In a specific implementation, the transmitter antenna pattern adapts to changing parameters, such as when a smartphone is initially held in a first orientation and is later held in a second orientation. Because the transmitter antenna pattern matches receiver antenna patterns, signal quality between stations improves. In some implementations, antennas are organized and mounted to maximize spatial diversity to cause peak gains in different directions.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2020Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Extreme Networks, Inc.Inventors: Changming Liu, George Gang Chen, Hai Lin, Liangfu Zhang

Patent number: 11917612Abstract: In a grant based system, a user equipment (UE) sends data in an uplink in a request-grant process. The UE first sending a scheduling request, a gNodeB processing the request and scheduling a grant sometime in future, then UE then either sending data if the grant is sufficient or requesting for another grant with more capacity to accommodate data sending. Such a proceeding could cause serious latency in network access. Described in the present patent disclosure are embodiments to reduce the access time by giving proactive grants through inspecting downlink (DL) data sent to the UE or uplink data being transmitted from the UE. The uplink data may be predictive since it maybe in lieu of requirement for sending a TCP acknowledgement for the DL TCP data scheduled earlier. For voice calls, a ML system for system may be deployed to predict when proactive UL grants may be given.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2021Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: EdgeQ, Inc.Inventors: Hersh Vardhan Shukla, Sriram Rajagopal
