Abstract: A wireless device receives a downlink control information indicating: a transmit power control (TPC) command; and first resource blocks (RBs). A determination is made, based on the TPC command, of a transmission power. The transmission power is used for transmission of: an uplink signal; and one or more transport blocks. A transmission, based on a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure, is performed with the transmission power and via subcarriers of the first RBs: the uplink signal until a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) starting symbol; and the one or more transport blocks starting at the PUSCH starting symbol.

The first response may include the contention resolution identifier and indicate a slot offset and a start symbol. The wireless device may receive a second response of the first message from the start symbol of a second slot, wherein the second slot is based on a time offset and the slot offset with respect to the first slot.

Abstract: Wireless devices (clients) connect to different access points (AP) in a wireless network. The wireless network may determine that based on, for example, congestion of certain APs that a client should be steered away from a current AP. Steering may be conducted utilizing BSS transition management (BTM) messages to provide the client with a list of network-preferred APs for a transition. Clients may also have one or more preferred APs and may reject the BTM steering message if it does not include at least one client-preferred AP. To prevent rejection of the BTM message, at least one client-preferred AP may be added to the BTM message. To ensure the client is steered to a network-preferred AP, the client is blacklisted from connecting to the client-preferred AP until the client has been steered to a network-preferred AP.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a network forwarding element with a data-plane forwarding circuit that has a parameter collecting circuit to store and distribute parameter values computed by several machines in a network. In some embodiments, the machines perform distributed computing operations, and the parameter values that compute are parameter values associated with the distributed computing operations.

The first and second sets of machines are the same set of machines in some embodiments, while they are different sets of machines (e.g., one set has at least one machine that is not in the other set) in other embodiments.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for enabling a mesh network node to switch from a base station role to a user equipment role relative to a second mesh network node, and vice versa. By switching roles in this manner, the mesh network node may be able to benefit from increased uplink or downlink speed in the new role. This role reversal technique is particularly useful when using wireless protocols such as LTE that are asymmetric and allow differing throughput on uplink and downlink connections. Methods for determining whether to perform role reversal are disclosed, and methods for using role reversal in mesh networks comprising greater than two nodes are also disclosed.
