  • Method to mitigate hash correlation in multi-path networks
    Patent number: 11223561
    Abstract: Methods are provided for mitigating hash correlation. In this regard, a hash correlation may be found between a first switch and a second switch in a network. In this network, a first egress port is to be selected among a first group of egress ports at the first switch for forwarding packets, and a second egress port is to be selected among a second group of egress ports at the second switch for forwarding packets, where the first group has a first group size and the second group has a second group size. Upon finding the hash correlation, a new second group size coprime to the first group size may be selected, and the second group of egress ports may be mapped to a mapped group having the new second group size. The second switch may be configured to route packets according to the mapped group.

  • Managing inter-radio access technology capabilities of a user equipment
    Patent number: 11223981
    Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described for managing inter-radio access technology capabilities of a user equipment. A base station (gNB base station 121) receives a New Radio capability information element (information element 500) that indicates one or more core networks supported by the user equipment (UE 110). Based on the New Radio capability information element, the base station generates a measurement configuration and sends measurement configuration to the user equipment (at 1010). Afterwards, the base station receives one or more measurement results based on the measurement configuration (at 1030). The base station then determines a handover type for the user equipment (at 1105, at 1205, at 1305), and initiates the handover based on the determined handover type (at 1110, at 1210, at 1310).

  • Bracket for mounting a thruster to a boat
    Patent number: 11220318
    Abstract: A bracket for mounting a thruster to a boat includes a horizontal neck portion, an upper mounting support portion, a support plate portion that extends downward from the upper mounting support portion, and an enclosure portion. The support plate portion and the rear of the upper mounting support portion form a transom-facing surface in a plane that is at a non-right angle relative to a horizontal plane. The transom-facing surface is angled such that the bottom of the support plate portion is further to the rear of the thruster bracket than the top of the upper mounting support portion in order to match the angle of the transom of a boat to which the thruster bracket is mounted. A thruster is mounted to the thruster bracket at a level where the thruster will be out of the water when the boat is moving fast and up on plane, and will be in the water when the boat is moving very slow.
