Publication number: 20240064795Abstract: A method of operating an uplink scheduler as part of a medium access control scheduler on a satellite includes selecting, from a plurality of user terminals, a first number of zero-bandwidth request user terminals from the plurality of user terminals, selecting, from the plurality of user terminals, a second number of non-zero-bandwidth request user terminals from the plurality of user terminals, binning the second number of non-zero-bandwidth request user terminals into a plurality of bins based on a respective bandwidth requirement for each non-zero-bandwidth request user terminal and based on a minimum user terminal grant and allocating, according to a grant allocation algorithm, a respective grant of radio resources in an uplink frame to each user terminal of the plurality of user terminals into a respective bin of the plurality of bins in an order associated with increasing bandwidth needs. A downlink scheduler is also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2023Publication date: February 22, 2024Inventors: Jayasuryan V. Iyer, Khasim Shaheed Shaik Mahammad, Yashodhan Dandekar, Ramakrishna Akella, Chen Chen, Phillip E. Barber, Peter J. Worters

Publication number: 20240040601Abstract: A method for downlink link adaptation includes receiving, from a satellite and at a user terminal, a first data packet data unit according to a first downlink modulation and coding scheme (MCS), computing error vector magnitude data associated with the first data packet data unit, generating, based on one or more of the error vector magnitude data, user terminal signal-to-noise-ratio feedback based on a constant times a previous user terminal signal-to-noise-ratio and a current user terminal signal-to-noise-ratio, and transmitting an uplink packet data unit having a downlink block error rate and the user terminal signal-to-noise-ratio feedback. A satellite runs a link adaptation algorithm based on the user terminal signal-to-noise-ratio feedback and block error rate to generate a second downlink MCS. The method includes receiving at the user terminal a second data packet data unit according to the second downlink MCS for the satellite-to-user-terminal downlink. Uplink link adaptation is also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Jayasuryan V.

Patent number: 9276806Abstract: Systems and/or methods may be used to handle failure of a HeNB/HNB, a SeGW, or an edge component. For example, actions may be performed by the edge component when a HeNB, a CGW, or a SeGW fails. The actions that may be performed when a SeGW may fail may include tearing down an IPSec tunnel to a HeNB connected to the edge component, using S1-AP signaling, a signaling interface (e.g., a connection management interface (CMI), an X2 interface, and/or a Sxx interface to inform the HeNB of the failure, and/or the like. The actions that may be performed when a HeNB may fail may include using S1-AP signaling and/or a signaling interface (e.g., a CMI) to inform a mobility management entity (MME) of the failure, and/or the like.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2013Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: InterDigital Patent Holdings, Inc.Inventors: John Cartmell, Khasim Shaheed

Publication number: 20140341109Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a converged gateway (CGW) may be disclosed. A policy may be by the CGW to make routing decisions (e.g. segregation and/or aggregation of flows or traffic associated with data) for various interfaces and/or radio access technologies (RATs) that may be included in a LAN, device, and/or communication system. The policy may be locally stored within the CGW. Dynamic flow management, load balancing, offloading, PDF context establishment, prioritization, detection of devices, and the like may also be provided and/or implemented in the CG W and may be used to route flows and/or traffic associated with data.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2012Publication date: November 20, 2014Applicant: INTERDIGITAL PATENT HOLDINGS, INC.Inventors: John Cartmell, John L. Tomici, Bartosz Balazinski, Alexander Reznik, David G. Greiner, John M. McNally, Kenneth F. Lynch, Prabhakar R. Chitrapu, Jane Mack, Suresh Palanisamy, Khasim Shaheed, Siddhartha Kundalkar
