Abstract: A machine, such as a router (or other network appliance capable of filtering incoming packets), determines whether a packet is from a location that is likely to be capable of establishing an acceptable connection quality. If it is determined that an acceptable connection quality is unlikely to be obtained, the machine blocks the packet so that the connection is not established. If it is determined that the acceptable connection quality is likely to be obtained, the packet is received and the connection is allowed. As a consequence of blocking packets from locations that are expected to have a poor connection, connections are not established with servers that will provide poor service and a poor user experience.
Abstract: A terminal includes a receiver configured to receive from a base station a primary synchronization signal (PSS), a secondary synchronization signal (SSS), and a physical broadcast channel (PBCH) in a synchronization signal block; and a transmitter configured to transmit a random access preamble based on the synchronization signal block in which the PSS, the SSS, and the PBCH are received. A mapping period for mapping synchronization signal blocks included in a synchronization signal block set to resources for transmitting the random access preamble is determined based on a period determined based on configuration information regarding a random access channel, a value of a period of the synchronization signal block set, and a value of a duration in which a process of mapping synchronization signal blocks used for transmission by the base station in the synchronization signal block set to the resources for transmitting the random access preamble is completed.
Abstract: Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) and methods of communication are generally described herein.

Abstract: Localization systems and methods for transmitting timestampable localization signals from anchors according to one or more transmission schedules. The transmission schedules may be generated and updated to achieve desired positioning performance. For example, one or more anchors may transmit localization signals at a different rate than other anchors, the anchor transmission order can be changed, and the signals can partially overlap. In addition, different transmission parameters may be used to transmit two localization signals at the same time without interference. A self-localizing apparatus is able to receive the localization signals and determine its position. The self-localizing apparatus may have a configurable receiver that can select to receive one of multiple available localization signals. The self-localizing apparatuses may have a pair of receivers able to receive two localization signals at the same time.

Abstract: A wireless communication network serves a wireless User Equipment (UE) and comprises a wireless access node and a support access node. The wireless access node determines a sector power ratio for the support access node. The wireless access node determines an add threshold for the support access node based on the sector power ratio for the support access node. The wireless access node determines an add value for the support access node and determines when the add value is greater than the add threshold. When the add value is greater than the add threshold, the wireless access node signals the support access node to serve the wireless UE and signals the wireless UE to attach to the support access node. In response, the support access node wirelessly transfers user data for a wireless communication service to the wireless UE.

Abstract: The present technology is directed to a system and method for using cloud based processing to co-locate one or more tunnel end points, associated with mobile user generated traffic traversing a Core network, with the serving machine located on application provider network. The describe system/method involves early stage identification of traffic flow (i.e., at the Packet Data network Gateway device using Application Detection and Control function) and dynamically instantiating an end point for the aforementioned traffic flow at the server where the application request is being served. The traffic is then directly tunneled to the endpoint thus avoiding decapsulated mobile traffic from traversing across provider network.
