  • Patent number: 10044557
    Abstract: A method (100) for configuring a wireless connection (30) between a control component (10) and a first field component (20) of a wiring system (11). Circuit information (40) of the wiring system (11) is first provided. A wired connection (42) between the control component (10) and the first field component (20) is then captured. A first radio network address (12) is then assigned to the control component (10), wherein the first radio network address (12) corresponds to a first end (46) of the wired connection (42). Similarly, a second radio network address (22) is assigned to the first field component (20), wherein the second radio network address (22) corresponds to a second end (48) of the wired connection (42). Linkage information (50) that includes the first and second radio network addresses (12, 22) is then provided to the control component (10) to define a wireless connection (30) between the control component (10) and the first field component (20).

  • Patent number: 10033590
    Abstract: IoT stations are profiled in an IPv6 protocol environment. Responsive to sending the modified router advertisement instead of the router advertisement to the station, a DHCPv6 solicitation packet is snooped. The DHPv6 solicitation packet is sent from the station to a DHCPv6 server to gather network configuration information stored in the router advertisement withheld by the access point. In turn, the access point examines the DHCPv6 solicitation packet to determine an identity of least one of device and operating system. The identity determination is stored for applying network policies (e.g., network security policies) during transactions with the station.

  • Patent number: 10009789
    Abstract: To relieve signaling congestion, UEs (30) having delay-tolerant data are moved more rapidly to the non UL synchronized state, freeing up PUCCH resources for users that have not indicated a delay-tolerance. In one embodiment, a resource conservative mode is defined for a UE (30) having delay-tolerant data (e.g., from a “background” app); otherwise, the UE (30) assumes a default mode. In one embodiment, the network sends the UE a pair of first and a second values (or indices to them) for a Time Alignment Timer, TAT (56, 66) in the UE (30). The first value—which is typically smaller than the second value—is used by the UE (30) in the resource conservative mode when the user data plane is internally concluded as being delay-tolerant or has already been confirmed to be delay-tolerant; the second value is used otherwise (i.e., in default mode). In the resource conservative mode, the shorter TAT value moves the UE from PUCCH more rapidly, and the UE (30) uses random access for infrequent scheduling requests.
