Patent number: 10956423Abstract: A modular and distributed architecture for data stream processing and analysis is described to incorporate data stream analytics capabilities, called Data Stream Analytics Service (DSAS) in the IoT/M2M service layer. Each service layer node hosting DSAS can be split into two independent modules, Stream Forwarder and Stream Analytics Engine. Stream Forwarder is a light weight processing modules that can be responsible for data preprocessing and routing. Stream Analytics Engine is responsible for performing actual analytics on the data stream. Separating the two functionalities enables the service layer nodes to efficiently distribute stream analytics tasks across multiple nodes.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2017Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: Convida Wireless, LLCInventors: Sneha Aman Singh, Xu Li, Quang Ly, Gregory S.

Patent number: 10924171Abstract: Multiple mobility sets are maintained for nodes of radio networks. The sets comprise information such as: transmit and receive point identities; cell identities; beam identities; frequency channels; channel bandwidth; and black lists. The sets may be defined at different levels, such as network and physical (PHY) level. A network mobility set, e.g., a new-radio (NR) mobility set may, be determined by the gNB, the cell, the UE, or another device. Multiple radio access network nodes and UEs may exchange mobility set information to achieve a distributed mobility solution. A UE may monitor its orientation relative to a TRP, e.g., via use of an onboard MEMS gyroscope, and alter its beamforming parameters in response to changes in orientation and/or changes in TRP connection strength. Cell selection and reselection for beam based networks may use Single Frequency Network (SFN) broadcast of initial access signals without beam sweeping.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2020Date of Patent: February 16, 2021Assignee: Convida Wireless, LLCInventors: Wei Chen, Pascal M.

Patent number: 10893051Abstract: Embodiments concern a dynamic authorization framework. Security Classification Process (SCP) is the process of classifying raw data, information extracted from raw data, content or code from security-value perspective. Security Achievability Determination Process (SADP) is a process based on a SV/SC that has been assigned, the RHE may determine the Security Requirements and how the security requirements may be achieved. During the Security Achievability Listing Process (SALP), the RHE uploads onto the Resource Listing Entity (RLE) the URI of the resource, the SAM associated with the resource and optionally a digital certificate associated with the resource. During the SAM Assessment Process (SAMAP) process, a Client evaluates the security mechanisms that must be carried out in order to meet the SAM that was provided as part of the Discovery Process (DP). Based on the SAM obtained from the RLE, the Client may initiate a Security Achievability Enabling Process (SAEP).Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2016Date of Patent: January 12, 2021Assignee: Convida Wireless, LLCInventors: Vinod Kumar Choyi, Chonggang Wang, Shamim Akbar Rahman, Quang Ly, Xu Li, Zhuo Chen, Rocco Di Girolamo

Patent number: 10887394Abstract: A naming scheme for IoT Devices can address the problem that the existing naming schemes of the IoT devices do not support device discovery and group operation efficiently. An IoT Device Name Service (IDNS) can be in charge of how the device name is generated from the location and other context information; updated due to the location change or context variation; and discovered. The IoT Devices can be routed by their names using a Name Routing Protocol (NRP). With the name scheme and NRP, the IoT Devices do not need to implement the full protocol stack to enable the direct communication between them.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2015Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: Convida Wireless, LLCInventors: Lijun Dong, Xu Li, Zhuo Chen, Chonggang Wang, Quang Ly, Shamim Akbar Rahman, Guang Lu

Patent number: 10887055Abstract: A method of transmitting blocks of data in a wireless telecommunications system in which blocks of data are transmitted a plurality of times. When a first block of data becomes available for transmission an initial selection of transmission resources for a plurality of transmissions of the first block of data in a corresponding plurality of time periods is made, and transmissions of the first block of data are started. While there are still transmissions of the first block of data which remain to be made, a second block of data becomes available for transmission. In response to this, the initial selection of transmission resources for the remaining repeat transmissions of the first block of data is modified to increase the amount of resource available for transmitting the second block of data during the time periods in which repeat transmissions of the first block of data remain to be made.Type: GrantFiled: March 20, 2018Date of Patent: January 5, 2021Assignee: CONVIDA WIRELESS, LLCInventors: Shin Horng Wong, Martin Warwick Beale, Samuel Asangbeng Atungsiri, Brian Alexander Martin, Vivek Sharma

Patent number: 10880868Abstract: System information can include a basic set of system information and additional system information. A UE can receive the basic set of system information and then later request or receive the additional system information. Messages can use tags which can be used to look up locally stored system information. If a tag does not correspond to any locally stored system information, the system information and an associated tag can then be requested. Messages can be indicative of a cluster identity associated with cells. When the UE goes into a new cell, the cluster identity can be checked to see if system information from a prior call can be reused.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2019Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: Convida Wireless, LLCInventors: Pascal M.
