Patent number: 11856446Abstract: A wireless device receives indications of: a first scheduling request (SR) resource corresponding to first logical channel(s) having a first logical channel prioritization (LCP) mapping to first radio resources; and a second SR resource corresponding to second logical channel(s) having a second LCP mapping to second radio resources. A buffer status report (BSR) is triggered in response to data becoming available for the second logical channel(s). First uplink grant(s) indicating a first radio resource of the first radio resources is received. An SR for transmission of the BSR is triggered in response to the first radio resource not meeting the second LCP mapping configured for the second logical channel(s) that triggered the BSR.

Patent number: 11831489Abstract: A wireless device receives one or more messages comprising one or more configuration parameters indicating: one or more reference signals for a beam failure detection procedure; and a discontinuous reception (DRX) configuration for controlling transitions between a DRX inactive state and a DRX active state. The beam failure detection procedure is performed based on measurements of the one or more reference signals. A first value of a counter is determined based on detecting at least one beam failure instance during the DRX active state. A transition from the DRX active state to the DRX inactive state is made based on the DRX configuration. The beam failure detection procedure is stopped in response to the transitioning. The beam failure detection procedure continues with the first value of the counter after transitioning from the DRX inactive state to the DRX active state.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2022Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: ResMed Inc.Inventors: Ali Cagatay Cirik, Esmael Dinan, Hua Zhou, Hyoungsuk Jeon, Alireza Babaei

Publication number: 20230248928Abstract: Methods and apparatus provide communications among respiratory therapy device (“TD”), server and intermediary (e.g., a control device (“CTLD”) for the therapy device) to improve security. More secure communication channel(s) may be established using shared secrets derived with different channels. The communications may include transmitting therapy data from TD to server for authentication. The CTLD may receive the data and a nonce from a server. The CTLD receives from the TD a signing key dependent on the nonce and a secret shared by TD and server. The CTLD generates an authorisation code with received therapy data and the key for authentication of the data by the server upon its receipt of the code and data. The server computes (1) a key from the nonce and the secret known to TD, and (2) another authorisation code from received therapy data and the key. Data authentication may involve comparing received and computed codes.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2023Publication date: August 10, 2023Applicant: ResMed Inc.Inventors: Brian HICKEY, Christopher John Roberts, Chinmayee Somaiya, Wendall Eric Trull, Luke Anthony Tucker, Amila Jeewaka Fernando
