Abstract: Activating an uplink (UL) gap at a base station may include decoding a user equipment (UE) UL gap capability report received from a UE. A radio resource control (RRC) UL gap configuration may be encoded for transmission to the UE. A power headroom report (PHR) medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) received from the UE may be decoded. The PHR MAC CE may include at least one of a P value or a power management maximum power reduction (P-MPR) value. Decoding the measurement information may include determining that the P value is equal to one or the P-MPR value is greater than zero. Based on determining that the P value is equal to one or the P-MPR value is greater than zero, the UL gap configuration may be implicitly activated.

Abstract: Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for implementing a polling command strategy in a database system. A subscriber transmits, to a database system, a subscription to an event. When the database system detects the event, a publisher transmits a message notifying the subscriber of the occurrence of the event. The subscriber processes the message received from the publisher. Responsive to processing the message, the subscriber waits a predefined period of time. After waiting the predefined period of time, the subscriber sends a polling message to the database system. Responsive to the polling message, the subscriber obtains data satisfying the subscription from the database system and the subscriber processes the data.

Abstract: A system for decoding a transmission include a client device configured to receives a superposition via one or more communication links. The superposition may correspond to a transmission encoded into a plurality of fragments. The system may determine a coefficient for each fragment contained in the superposition and initialize a decoding process. The decoding process may facilitate determining a value of each fragment based on the identified coefficient of each fragment in the superposition. Advantageously, the system, through use of a the one or more communication links, may be configured to decode the transmission to derive information transmitted from a data source quickly and reliably.

Abstract: As an indexer indexes and groups events, it can generate data slices that include events. Based on a slice rollover policy, the indexer can add a particular slice to an aggregate slice. Based on an aggregate slice backup policy, the indexer can store a copy of the aggregate slice to a shared storage system. The aggregate slice can be used for restore purposes in the event the indexer fails or becomes unresponsive.

Abstract: A distributed data acquisition system comprising multiple, physically unconnected, data acquisition units that can be in wireless communication with a remote host, timestamps measurement data with sub-microsecond time base accuracy of sampling clock relative to an absolute timeframe. Each unit has a GPS receiver for deriving an absolute time. An analog-to-digital converter samples measurement data using a sampling clock. A hardware logic circuit, such as a field programmable gate array, associates batches of the measurement data with corresponding timestamps representing the current absolute time. A time offset bias may be compensated by a comparison of timestamps with nominal time based on start time and nominal sampling rate. Additionally, the sampling clock may be synchronized using time pulses from the GPS receiver. An initial start of ADC sampling by all data acquisition units may be also synchronized.

Abstract: System and methods that improve the use of network functions on edge data networks are disclosed. A mechanism that supports edge-assisted UE context and trigger collection is described herein, where a UE can actively send its context information and/or any trigger (e.g. a request for a network function/service to be deployed in edge data networks, etc.) to an edge enabler server, which processes the received context and triggers from its UEs. The edge enabler server may also forward UE context and triggers to 5G core network (5GC) upon receiving a solicitation request from the 5GC, or if the 5GC has already made a subscription for getting notification on UE context and triggers. A network repository function is provided as a new network function collect, store, and manage edge data network information.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing viewers of streamed video content with the option to view alternative video content in which alternative tone maps are applied to respective regions of interest. In some embodiments, the streamed video content is divided into slices, and alternative tone maps are applied to respective regions of interest within the slices. When a server receives a request from a client for alternative tone mappings of different regions, slices with the appropriate mapping may be assembled on demand and delivered to the client in a single video stream. Tone mappings may be used, for example, to highlight particular objects, such as players in a sporting event captured in the streamed video content.

Abstract: Systems and methods of managing a Bluetooth SigMesh network involve a supervisor configured to monitor one or more network parameters of the SigMesh network, such as topology, message identity, transmit count, transmit interval, relay retransmit count, or relay retransmit interval.

In response to receiving an indication that the first wireless router to which the network security manager device is connected is out of service or no longer exists, the network security manager device prevents other devices on the Internet from being able to communicate with the plurality of devices.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a new content server framework in which functionalities of a content server are implemented as lightweight microservices. At startup of the content server framework, a content server container and a set of microservices are launched. The content server container only has a content server application programming interface (API) which has a controller that can instantiate controller applications, each having a master module and worker(s). When a request is received, the content server API routes it to an appropriate microservice which stores the request in a repository. The master module retrieves the request from the repository and places it in a queue. The worker picks up the request from the queue and processes it. The controller keeps track of details of each controller application container that it instantiated (e.g., load and status) and automatically scale up or down the number of instances.
