  • Publication number: 20240154674
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for allocating channel state information (CSI) processing unit (CPU) for user equipment (UE) initiated CSI. For example, the UE may receive an indication from a network entity (e.g., a base station or gNB) configuring the UE with a number of one or more CPUs allowed to be occupied for UE-initiated CSI feedback. The UE uses the at least one of the CPUs to calculate UE-initiated CSI feedback. The UE transmits at least one report including the UE-initiated CSI feedback if one or more conditions are met, such as when a mismatch between a CSI metric for a scheduled physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and a CSI metric calculated as part of the UE-initiated CSI feedback is equal to or exceeding a threshold value.

  • Patent number: 11909716
    Abstract: Leaf nodes of a tree structure, also having a root node and intermediate nodes, communicate with endpoints via access networks and store mappings from permanent virtual IP (VIP) addresses for the endpoints to physical IP (PIP) addresses for the endpoints on the access networks. The root node and intermediate nodes store pointers for the endpoints' leaf nodes and associated access networks. When a connection setup request (CSR) for a destination endpoint is received from a corresponding node, the receiving leaf node passes the CSR up through the tree structure to a lowest common ancestor (LCA) node for the receiving leaf node and one or more destination leaf nodes associated with the destination endpoint. The LCA node uses its pointers to pass the CSR down towards the one or more destination leaf nodes, which use the corresponding VIP-to-PIP mappings to forward the CSR to the destination endpoint.

  • Publication number: 20230373137
    Abstract: An integrally formed resin diffusing component (100), a diffractive optical element (DOE), and a manufacturing method thereof. A resin material (630) in a liquid is spread between a supporting plate (610) and a mold (620) of a manufacturing apparatus (600), pressed, and light-cured, thus producing the light-cured resin diffusing component (100) or the DOE. The diffusing component (100) or the DOE is integrally formed, the phenomenon of delamination is prevented from occurring, and the need for high-temperature injection molding and cooled forming is obviated.

  • Patent number: 11516133
    Abstract: Packet-processing circuitry including one or more flow caches whose contents are managed using a cache-entry replacement policy that is implemented based on one or more updatable counters maintained for each of the cache entries. In an example embodiment, the implemented policy enables the flow cache to effectively catch and keep elephant flows by giving to the caught elephant flows appropriate preference in terms of the cache dwell time, which can beneficially improve the overall cache-hit ratio and/or packet-processing throughput. Some embodiments can be used to implement an Open Virtual Switch (OVS). Some embodiments are advantageously capable of implementing the cache-entry replacement policy with very limited additional memory allocation.

  • Publication number: 20220069270
    Abstract: A battery comprises a positive current collector that contacts a composite cathode and a negative current collector that supports an anode. The anode is opposedly disposed to the composite cathode. A compliant interlayer and a separator are located between the anode and the composite cathode, where the compliant interlayer comprises a compliant electrolyte. The separator is in a protective relationship with the cathode and prevents the compliant electrolyte from contacting the composite cathode.

  • Patent number: 10848367
    Abstract: A plurality of agents is instantiated on a corresponding plurality of servers that are running concurrent instances of a control plane application. A first agent is selected from the plurality of agents to mediate communication between a client and the concurrent instances of the control plane application running on the plurality of servers. The first agent replicates uplink packets received from the client for transmission to the plurality of agents. A first connection is used to convey the uplink packets. The first agent transmits a single copy of redundant downlink packets received from the plurality of agents to the client via the first connection. In some cases, the first connection is a stateful transmission control protocol (TCP) connection and the first agent replicates the uplink packets received in a single TCP stream. The first agent merges the redundant downlink packets into the single TCP stream.

  • Patent number: 10841040
    Abstract: A packet splicer receives, from a first server of a plurality of servers, a first request for retransmission of an uplink packet that was received from a client and replicated to the plurality of servers. The plurality of servers is running concurrent instances of a control plane application configured to process information in the uplink packet. The packet splicer transmits the first request for retransmission of the uplink packet to the client. The packet splicer bypasses transmission of a second request for retransmission of the uplink packet received from a second server of the plurality of servers. In some cases, the packet splicer receives, from the client, a request for retransmission of a downlink packet that was redundantly transmitted by the plurality of servers. The packet splicer replicates the request for retransmission of the downlink packet to the plurality of servers.

    Abstract: This disclosure generally discloses an anchor mobility mechanism. The anchor mobility mechanism is configured to support migration of flows between mobility anchors within a wireless communication system. The anchor mobility mechanism may be configured to support migration of flows between mobility anchors within a wireless communication system in a highly seamless manner. The anchor mobility mechanism may be configured to support migration of a flow of a wireless device between mobility anchors within a wireless communication system using functions performed by a control element (CE) and one or more forwarding elements (FEs) within the data plane of the flow of the wireless device. The functions may include identifying a time at which to initiate migration of the flow, initiating migration of the flow based on identification of the time at which to initiate migration of the flow, or the like, as well as various combinations thereof.
