Abstract: A network node (120), such as a packet marking node, efficiently measures the bitrates of incoming packets on a plurality of timescales (TSs). A throughput-value function (TVF) is then graphed to indicate the throughput-packet value relationship for that TVF. Then, starting from the longest TS and moving towards the shortest TS, the packet marking node determines (88) a distance between the TVFs of different TSs at the measured bitrates. To determine the packet marking, the packet marking node selects a random throughput value between 0 and the bitrate measured on the shortest TS. Depending on how the random value relates to the measured bitrates, a TVF, and the distances to add to the random value, is then selected to determine (92) a packet value (PV) with which to mark the packet. The packet marking node then marks (94) the packet according to the determined PV.

Abstract: A method and system to help facilitate communication between a user equipment device (UE) and an access node that is serving the UE, in a scenario where a bearer is configured for the UE, the bearer having a defined set of quality-of-service (QoS) requirements for communication of user-plane data on the bearer.

And upon loosening of the set of QoS requirements, the access node could invoke Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) duplication for the communication between the UE and the access node on the bearer, to help improve quality of the communication between the UE and the access node in presence of the threshold poor wireless coverage.

Abstract: In a wireless network, a frame structure may include a padding duration at the start of every half subframe to ensure that an integer number of symbols fit within a duration of the half subframe. In some aspects, to avoid wasting time domain resources, the padding duration may be utilized for other purposes. For example, because a single carrier waveform is not bound to a fixed Fast Fourier Transform size, a wireless node may use the padding duration to transmit a single carrier symbol that has a shorter length than a full symbol associated with a subcarrier spacing. Additionally, or alternatively, in cases where a wireless node is configured to transmit or receive a signal in a first symbol of a half subframe that is associated with a different power level than a preceding symbol, the padding duration may be used to adapt a transmit power or a receive gain.
