  • Patent number: 11395327
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for efficiently determining whether to transmit an uplink transmission scheduled by a semi-static grant or a dynamic uplink transmission scheduled by a dynamic grant when the dynamic uplink transmission conflicts with the uplink transmission scheduled by the semi-static grant. In particular, if a user equipment (UE) determines that a dynamic grant is received within a threshold time before an uplink transmission scheduled by a semi-static grant, the UE may transmit the uplink transmission scheduled by the semi-static grant and refrain from transmitting the dynamic transmission. Alternatively, if the UE determines that a dynamic grant is received in advance of a threshold time before an uplink transmission scheduled by a semi-static grant, the UE may transmit the dynamic transmission and refrain from transmitting the uplink transmission scheduled by the semi-static grant.

  • Patent number: 11395211
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide techniques for a geographically-based traffic handling policy. An originating device may mark traffic with geographic restriction information, such as in a header of network traffic, indicating a geographic restriction on the propagation of the traffic. The geographic restriction may indicate a geographic region in which the traffic may be forwarded, or a geographic region in which the traffic is prohibited from being forwarded. Network devices in a path between the originating device and a destination device may determine whether to drop the traffic or perform other policy-related actions based on whether such devices are inside the geographic region in which the traffic may be forwarded. In some implementations a destination device may register as an exception to such policies, based on which an originating device or a router may bypass geographically-based traffic handling policies with respect to marked traffic directed to the destination device.

  • Patent number: 11290215
    Abstract: The solution presented herein introduces variable repetition levels for control and data transmissions via a physical downlink control channel for machine-type communications, e.g., the M-PDDCH. When a wireless terminal detects and correctly decodes a message carried by physical downlink control channel for machine-type communications that requests retransmissions, the wireless terminal performs adaptive uplink retransmissions according to a retransmission format defined by the message. The retransmission format defines at least one of a modulation and coding rate for the retransmissions, a frequency resource for the retransmissions, and a number of repetitions.
