Restoring the portion Y of the degraded frame includes generating, using first restoration parameters, a first guide portion Y1 for the portion Y; generating, using second restoration parameters, a second guide portion Y2 for the portion Y; and generating a reconstructed portion YR, wherein the projection operation is based on ?(Y1?Y)+?(Y2?Y).

Abstract: A fabric control protocol is described for use within a data center in which a switch fabric provides full mesh interconnectivity such that any of the servers may communicate packet data for a given packet flow to any other of the servers using any of a number of parallel data paths within the data center switch fabric. The fabric control protocol enables spraying of individual packets for a given packet flow across some or all of the multiple parallel data paths in the data center switch fabric and, optionally, reordering of the packets for delivery to the destination. The fabric control protocol may provide end-to-end bandwidth scaling and flow fairness within a single tunnel based on endpoint-controlled requests and grants for flows. In some examples, the fabric control protocol packet structure is carried over an underlying protocol, such as the User Datagram Protocol (UDP).

Abstract: A wireless communication system serves a wireless User Equipment (UE) over a wireless network slice. A serving wireless communication network selects a Uniform Data Repository (UDR) in a target wireless communication network based on the wireless network slice. The serving wireless communication network transfers an information request for the wireless UE across a wireless communication network boundary to the selected UDR in the target wireless communication network. In response to the information request, the selected UDR in the target wireless communication network transfers UE information for the wireless UE across the wireless communication network boundary to the serving wireless communication network. The wireless network slice in the serving wireless communication network serves the wireless UE based on the UE information.
