  • Patent number: 12230889
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media herein dynamically adjust the number of elements active within a neighboring base station in order to reduce the back lobe overlap and thus reduce the interference caused by such an overlap. User devices assigned to communicate with an antenna array are monitored to determine if they are experiencing a decreased level of performance which may be caused by an overlapping back lobe from a neighboring cell site. If the user device's performance falls below a threshold value, the gain associated with the neighboring cell site is dynamically reduced in order to reduce the back lobe overlap.

  • Patent number: 12230115
    Abstract: A user-assistant system for threat detection and convenience is disclosed. The system includes a primary device (e.g., handheld mobile device) configured to establish a local network with one or more secondary devices (e.g., wearable device). The primary device can couple the system to a wireless communications network. A first sensor monitors physical activity occurring within a threshold vicinity of a user, and a second sensor can measure a physical property of the user. The system can determine that the physical activity satisfies the first condition and that the measure of the physical property satisfies a second condition within a timeframe of the first condition being satisfied. In response to the first and second conditions being satisfied within the timeframe, the system performs an action configured to assist the user in real-time to interpret and respond to the physical activity in a real-world environment.

  • Patent number: 12231214
    Abstract: A wireless relay serves a wireless User Equipment (UE) over a relay slice. The wireless relay stores a relay Control Plane Function (CPF) and relay User Plane Function (UPF) for the relay slice. The wireless relay receives attachment signaling from the UE and transfers the attachment signaling to the wireless communication network. The wireless relay receives network signaling from the wireless communication network that indicates the relay slice for the wireless UE. The wireless relay executes the relay CPF and the relay UPF for the relay slice responsive to the network signaling. The relay CPF transfers UPF instructions to the relay UPF based on the network signaling. The relay UPF receives the UPF instructions, and in response, wirelessly exchanges user data with the UE and with the wireless communication network.

  • Patent number: 12231419
    Abstract: Methods and systems for unique session number sharing to ensure traceability are discussed herein. According to an implementation, a user sends a request to login a browser from a user equipment to a server device. The server device validates a user credential associated with the browser by comparing the user credential with pre-stored user registration information. Once the user credential is validated, the server device generates a session with a unique session number (USN) with respect to the request. The server device generates a plurality of logs with respect to the activities occurred during the session and associates the USN with each of the multiple logs. The USN is further included in an access token that authorizes the user to access the websites hosted by the browser.

  • Publication number: 20250053745
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, identifying an entity of a natural language question, locating a node of a knowledge graph corresponding to the entity, and generating a candidate answer set including a group of other entities located a predetermined proximity to the node. Contextual information for the group of other entities is determined from the knowledge graph, and the natural language question and contextual information are separately encoded to obtain separate encoded vectorial representations of the natural language question and members of the candidate answer set. The encoding uses pre-trained language model embeddings obtained via a bidirectional encoder representations from transformer encoding process. The encoded vectorial representations of the question under an influence of aspects of the contextual information are scored and a member of the candidate answer set selected according to the score to obtain an answer to the original question.

  • Publication number: 20250056311
    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards a transport protocol for latency sensitive applications. The disclosed transport protocol is “semi-reliable” in that it allows for specification of an importance of data being transmitted, thereby allowing important data to be sent reliably, while other data can be dropped if necessary, e.g., under bad network conditions. A deadline can be specified for such other data, and if the other data cannot be sent prior to the deadline, it can be dropped. Furthermore, the disclosed transport protocol can allow for early discovery of network jitter. A client device can send regular acknowledgments which identify most recently received data packets as well as a number of “heartbeat transmissions” received at the client device. A server device can use the acknowledgments to discover and respond to jitter.
