A modulation symbol and N spreading sequences are received. Acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (A/N) information is determined in accordance with the modulation symbol and the N spreading sequences.

Abstract: A system for communicating a multicast packet through a network switch fabric is described. The system receives the multicast packet at an input port of the network switch fabric, where the multicast packet is directed to multiple output ports, and where the network switch fabric has a virtual output queue (VOQ)-based architecture, in which each input port maintains a separate VOQ for unicast packets to each output port and one or more VOQs for multicast packets destined to multiple output ports. The system sends the multicast packet by inserting the multicast packet into the one or more VOQs associated with the multiple output ports, so that multicast packets are queued separately from unicast packets. Moreover, the system may optionally dynamically modify a number of the one or more VOQs for the multicast packets based on a number of multicast flows through the network switch fabric.

Base incremental adjustments to the configuration parameters of the one or more antennas at the radio access nodes continue to be performed in response to the measurement reports after previous incremental adjustments until an improvement limit has occurred. Biased random adjustments to the configuration parameters of the one or more antennas at the radio access nodes are performed in response to the improvement limit until a desired optimum result is achieved.

A UE may transmit such a handover error report in response to an undesirable handover procedure from a source access node to a target access node, such as a failed or nearly failed or too early handover procedure. The UE may transmit this handover error report to either the source access node or the target access node or another node.

Abstract: Network service providers often make use of traffic optimizers, in order to balance the objectives of maximizing users' quality of experience (“QoE”) with the costs of transmitting data. Certain content providers may make use of their own optimization algorithms, which may be interfered with by network providers' traffic optimizers. As described herein, a master optimization controller (“MOC”) may be able to enable or disable traffic optimizers within a network by enhancing a Transmission Control Protocol (“TCP”) three-way handshake procedure. The MOC may also perform traffic optimization, thus serving as the only device that performs optimization on traffic. Additionally, while traffic optimizers within a network are typically not visible to third party content providers, the MOC may perform optimization in a manner that may be visible to, and controlled by, a content provider.

Abstract: An apparatus performs in parallel a first communication conforming to a first wireless communication method and a second communication conforming to a second wireless communication method by distributing transmission data to the first communication and the second communication so that first and second transmission data are distributed to the first and second communications, respectively.

The apparatus controls, based on the detected unallocated data amount, a ratio of an amount of the first transmission data distributed to the first communication, to a total amount of transmission data distributed to both the first and second communications.
