  • Patent number: 11637713
    Abstract: A physical layer transceiver for a node in a wireline communication system includes receiver circuitry for receiving communications from a link partner on a first link path, transmitter circuitry for transmitting communications to the link partner on a second link path, and an energy-efficient Ethernet (EEE) controller for reducing power consumption on the first or second link path, when activity on that link path is reduced. In a low-power mode, there are periodic refresh intervals of a first duration, during which signals are received or transmitted, and, between the refresh intervals, quiet intervals of a second, longer, duration, during which transmission and reception of signals are avoided. The EEE controller detects a change in an environmental condition affecting that link path, and upon detection of that change, adjusts a parameter of the low-power mode on at least one of the first and second link paths.

  • Patent number: 11617123
    Abstract: Airtime network policies for quarantined station network policies are stored in a database for application to quarantined stations. Quarantined stations are moved from a first VLAN to a quarantine VLAN with a dedicated BSSID on the Wi-Fi communication network. An RU airtime allocation module of the access point allocates airtime RUs for suppression of some or all transmissions from the quarantined stations. The airtime RU allocation module determines an amount of RUs for access to airtime on a Wi-Fi communications network, based on a network policy that limits an amount of airtime allowed by quarantined stations.

  • Patent number: 11582631
    Abstract: Improved techniques of managing measurement gaps for MPUEs include identifying an idle time for the UE in a coordinated and network-controlled manner during which the UE is able to perform SSB/CSI-RS based measurements for a serving cell using non-serving panels. Such idle time is defined as an omitted operation time (i.e., an idle time of a certain pre-defined length) in which the network has to apply the scheduling restrictions in the SSBs' symbols to the UE. Note that currently as per the RAN4 requirements, the network must apply scheduling restrictions in all SSB symbols for all UEs in FR2 at any time (i.e., worst case scenario).

  • Patent number: 11563521
    Abstract: A method of data processing is applied to a communications device including a first sublayer. A physical sublayer is added above a physical coding sublayer (PCS) of a physical layer, and the physical sublayer is connected to media independent interfaces (xMIIs) with different Ethernet rates. Data signals from different media access control clients (MAC) are interleaved using the physical sublayer. Then, a tx_cmd command is used to instruct the PCS to correspondingly encode an xMII signal. Finally, an encoded xMII signal is sent through a port. According to this method, an encoding function of the PCS may continue to be used, to decouple interleaving from encoding and perform the interleaving through an xMII interface. In this case, port channelization can be implemented for ports with multiple rates, and transmission of a high-priority service is ensured when there is an excessively large quantity of service flows in a transmission process.
