Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and base station for Multiple User-Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) transmission in a wireless communication system. The base station re-allocates frequency resources of a DMRS port which are allocated to N first data flows to M second data flows, wherein M is greater than N, and N first data flows may be used by N first UEs or less than N first UEs. The base station designates a DMRS port for K second UEs involved in joint scheduling according to the re-allocation result of frequency resources of a DMRS port, and sends information of the designated DMRS port via a downlink control signaling to the K second UEs, where K is lower than M or equal to M.

Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a method in a relay node for acquiring information about a type of a radio network connection between a donor radio base station and a radio base station. The relay node and the donor radio base station are comprised in a radio communications network and the donor radio base station is serving the relay node. The relay node receives a message from the donor radio base station, which message is indicating a type of radio network application protocol, which type is related to a type of the radio network connection between the donor radio base station and the radio base station. The relay node determines the type of the radio network connection based on the type of radio network application protocol indicated in the message. The relay node also stores the type of radio network connection in relation to the radio base station for selecting the type of radio network connection when later communicating with the radio base station.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses can provide improved bandwidth and reduction in processing resources in a cable system using bonded upstream channels. Physical or environmental changes can occur in the HFC network effecting communication performance on one or more upstream channels. For optimal HFC network performance periodic measurements and adjustments are made reducing HFC network bandwidth and consume processing resources. This periodic maintenance is performed even if the communication service is not using the additional upstream bandwidth provided through upstream channel bonding. Demand-based bonded upstream channel allocation and de-allocation provides additional upstream bandwidth when required while optimizing HFC network performance and reducing processing resources through the reduction of periodic measurements and adjustments on the HFC network.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described that relate to on-demand compression for electronic data, such as media content, through a communication pathway. The communication pathway may be a configured to multicast media content to a plurality of end-users in a service group. In certain embodiments, the service group may comprise a service group node having a quadrature amplitude modulation device. In one exemplary method, it may be determined whether the amount of media content being transmitted meets a first utilization threshold. The determination may be based on, at least in part, by measurements taken at one or more electronic devices located throughout a network or system. If the first bandwidth utilization threshold is not met, media content may be transmitted in a first format. If the first bandwidth utilization threshold is met, at least a portion of the media content may be transmitted in a first optimized delivery technique.

Abstract: Information can transfer from a transmitter to a receiver; however, the transmission can consume valuable resources. Therefore, a number of times a transmission is attempted can be tracked and compared against a threshold value. If the transmission occurs too many times—based upon the comparison—then a reset can occur. Tracking can occur for a protocol data unit and/or a control protocol data unit to determine if a reset should occur.
