  • Patent number: 11470646
    Abstract: A method detecting allocation collisions from transmitting user equipments (UEs) in sidelink channel resources. The colliding allocations are detected and the quantity of allocation collisions is determined. A collision report is transmitted to other sidelink UEs within the coverage zone. The collision report or collision notification provides an indication of sidelink resources having identified colliding allocations. The identified allocation collisions may be pruned to remove potentially intentional collisions before collision report transmission.

  • Patent number: 11467657
    Abstract: Magnetic sensor synchronization techniques for pose tracking in artificial reality systems include managing and sending, by one or more primary magnetic sensors, a wireless synchronization signal to other magnetic sensors to trigger sensing sampling. The primary magnetic sensor may generate and send sensor data to a wireless data hub that operates as a sensor data collector and transmits data for pose tracking in the system. Each of the other (non-primary) magnetic sensors, in response to receiving the wireless synchronization signal, updates its sampling starting clock based on new synchronization timing. Each of the magnetic sensors sends generated sensor data to its corresponding primary sensor or wireless data hub according to a different schedule to avoid conflicts between the various magnetic sensors. The synchronization process may be repeated a number of times if a sensor fails to receive or respond to a synchronization signal.

  • Patent number: 11451477
    Abstract: A system and method for endpoint selection in a global accelerator system. The global accelerator system includes client devices communicating with a global access point to access various endpoints that can host services. Multiple endpoints are grouped geographically according to different data centers. Client service requests are received at a global access point, which in turns selects an endpoint to service the request. A selection mechanism utilized by the global access point implements a distribution algorithm that facilitates that distribution of endpoint requests according to a product of distribution criteria and geographic criteria. Additionally, the global access point can then identify individual endpoints within the group to process the request using a consistent hashing algorithm that ensures an endpoint can be continuously selected over the course of interaction with a client.

  • Patent number: 11438256
    Abstract: In a border network having a plurality of routers, routing tables for the routers can be generated using one or more weighted parameters, such as a price associated with transmission of packets over third-party routers, capacity of the border routers, and performance information (e.g., latency) of the border routers. The routing tables can be repetitively generated to proactively ensure that the border network is operating optimally. The framework described augments a control plane with Availability, Performance, and Cost (APC) telemetry collected from existing services in a cloud environment. Such telemetry can be continuously correlated in a convex optimization framework to maintain the network in its optimal state. As a result, the framework can proactively avoid potential network degradation events (e.g. congestion) and the resulting customer impact, while reducing the cost of routing traffic through upstream peers/transits.
