  • Patent number: 11943494
    Abstract: Systems and methods for adaptively adjusting a slew rate of a dejitter buffer in a remote device in a distributed access architecture. The slew rate may be adjusted based on measurements of a fullness state of a buffer made over time. The measurements may be used to calculate a frequency offset value between the rate at which data leaves the buffer relative to the rate at which data enters the buffer and/or used to calculate a current working depth of the buffer. The adaptive slew rate adjustments may be based on the frequency offset value and/or the current working depth.

  • Publication number: 20240098492
    Abstract: During operation, an access point may provide a first WLAN and a second WLAN, where the first WLAN uses a WPA2-compatible authentication protocol and the second WLAN uses a WPA3-compatible authentication protocol. In response to an association request or a probe request associated with (or from) an electronic device, the access point may establish a connection with the electronic device using the first WLAN. Then, the access point may confirm, with a computer system, that a binding between a passphrase associated with the electronic device and the second WLAN exists. Alternatively, when the binding does not exist, the access point may establish the binding in the computer system. Next, the access point may perform a BSS transition of the electronic device from the first WLAN to the second WLAN.

    Abstract: A communication system with uninterrupted service in citizens broadband radio service (CBRS) band is provided. The communication system includes a first base station that is in communication with at least one core network of a wireless communication service provider. The first base station is further in communication with a spectrum access system (SAS) that allocates communication channels in the CBRS band. The first base station uses the CBRS band to communicate with user equipment (UE) over a first CBRS band communication channel. A channel moving function is configured to redirect communications from the first CBRS band communication channel when a termination of grant to the first CBRS communication channel is issued by the SAS to a second communication channel provided by a second base station that provides a service coverage area for the UE through at least a second RP before the first CBRS communication channel is terminated.

  • Patent number: 11936858
    Abstract: A second level intra prediction mode can be combined with one or more of sixty-seven JVET intra prediction modes during encoding of a coding unit in a video bitstream. Embodiments include making a position dependent intra prediction combination (PDPC) mode available as the second level intra prediction mode. In embodiments, when a PDPC (position dependent intra prediction combination) mode is enabled, the second level intra prediction is combined with one of the 67 selected intra predictor modes. In embodiments, the PDPC mode is only enabled or available for a predetermined subset of intra prediction modes (out of 67 possible modes), in order to reduce encoder complexity and potentially improve coding efficiency. The PDPC mode may be identifies as enabled or available by a list of modes or signaling in the video bitstream.

    Abstract: A root access point (RAP) that communicates with one or more mesh access points (MAPs) via two or more concurrent mesh links (or paths) in a mesh network is described. Notably, during operation, the RAP may communicate, via a mesh link in the two or more concurrent mesh links, packets or frames with the one or more MAPs, where the mesh link uses a band of frequencies, and where the packets or frames have a priority. Moreover, the RAP may communicate, via a second mesh link in the two or more concurrent mesh links, second packets or second frames with the one or more MAPs, where the second mesh link uses a second band of frequencies that is different from the currently selected band of frequencies, and where the second packets or second frames have a second priority that is less than the priority of the packets or frames.

  • Patent number: 11930445
    Abstract: A network device for providing single-carrier quadrature amplitude modulation (SC-QAM) downstream channel fast pre-scanning. An orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) downstream (DS) channel scan in a foreground process and a single-carrier quadrature amplitude modulation (SC-QAM) DS channel scan in a background process are simultaneously performed. When a first OFDM downstream channel is locked onto, OFDM downstream channel is paused while scanning for SC-QAM downstream channels continues. SC-QAM DS channels identified in the background process are stored in a table. Based on a scan of all OFDM channels and failure to lock onto any OFDM DS channels, the SC-QAM DS channel scan in the background process is stopped and a normal SC-QAM DS channel scan is started. SC-QAM DS channels in the table are scanned first to provide fast pre-scanning. A modem becomes operational with a qualified SC-QAM DS channel obtained from the table.

  • Patent number: 11930363
    Abstract: A multi-modal portal system provides an authorization prior to establishing a visual interface connection between a support user or caller and a client user or receiving party. Once the caller is authorized, the caller is permitted to drop-in such that a visual interface connection is established with the receiving party. The authorization can be based on a profile configuration that indicates whether the caller has the credentials required for the visual interface. The authorization can require that a notification be sent to a trusted user or primary contact or the caller can be associated with a profile configuration that allows for a pre-authorization without requiring the notification. Also, a trusted user can be provided access to control an optical instrument associated with a client user where the client user is associated profile configuration or both.

  • Patent number: 11924071
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media may be operable to facilitate client device band steering based upon deep packet inspection information. An access point may be configured to steer one or more client devices from a low frequency band to a high frequency band, and vice versa, based on the status of the low frequency band and/or high frequency band and the client devices associated with the bands. The access point may perform a deep packet inspection of data packet traffic associated with each associated client device, and may classify each client device as either a device associated with a media session or a device that is not associated with a media session based upon information retrieved from the deep packet inspection. The access point may choose one or more client devices to disassociate from a frequency band based upon the media session classification of the client devices.
