  • Patent number: 11936764
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system that processes network data. During operation, the system obtains, at a remote capture agent, a first protocol classification for a first packet flow captured by the remote capture agent. Next, the system uses configuration information associated with the first protocol classification to build a first event stream from the first packet flow at the remote capture agent, wherein the first event stream comprises time-series event data generated from network packets in the first packet flow based on the first protocol classification. The system then transmits the first event stream over a network for subsequent storage and processing of the first event stream by one or more components on the network.

  • Patent number: 11870589
    Abstract: Aspects are provided in which a UE and a base station are configured to manage a multi-configuration HARQ message. The base station may generate a control signal including an HARQ configuration and transmit the control signal to the UE. The HARQ configuration may include a timing information and/or a transmission method. The HARQ configuration may include a first configuration for ACK and a second configuration for NACK. The first configuration may be different from the second configuration. The UE may apply the corresponding HARQ configuration to an ACK or NACK message in response to the control signal from the base station. The base station may also transmit the HARQ configuration prior to the control signal. Thus, the ACK message generated and transmitted based on the first configuration different from the second configuration may have improved reliability to increase the stability of the 5G network.

    Abstract: User equipment (UE) for sounding reference signal (SRS) triggering is provided. The UE may include a radio frequency (RF) signal processing device and a processor. The RF signal processing device receives first slot offset information and second slot offset information from a network node. The first slot offset information is configured through a radio resource control (RRC) information element (IE) to indicate a first time difference between the down link control information (DCI) and a resource reference slot. The second slot offset information indicates the second time difference between the reference slot and an SRS resource. The processor is coupled to the RF signal processing device. When the RF signal processing device receives the DCI, the processor triggers an SRS transmission for the SRS resource according to the first slot offset information and the second slot offset information.
