  • Patent number: 11916679
    Abstract: A bitstream modifier is operative on a packet which uses repetition coding. The bitstream modifier increases randomness of the data in a deterministic manner such that spectral spurs from repetition coding are greatly reduced, thereby providing greater available transmit power. In another example of the invention, baseband samples of a header and/or payload for a Bluetooth packet are modified by a canonical sequence with a low slew rate for data such that the variations in frequency may be tracked by a receiver and the transmitted spectral spurs reduced.

  • Patent number: 11888745
    Abstract: Network devices, such as load balancers may be configured to forward client metadata to back-end nodes using defined fields of a security protocol. For example, client metadata may be inserted into an extension field or certificate defined by a security protocol that is used for a secure connection between the load balancer and the back-end node. In some instances, a source IP address based on a received request may be inserted into the extension field or certificate defined by the security protocol before the request is forwarded to the back-end node. The back-end node may extract the client metadata and use the client metadata for any of a number of processes (e.g., billing, tracking, security, logging, etc.).
