  • Patent number: 11974222
    Abstract: A method for switching off a communication network is provided. The communication network includes a plurality of access points coordinated by a master device, where each access point manages a wireless network known as a fronthaul network, and where a station is able to associate itself with a fronthaul network of the communication network. At least one item of information relating to each associated station is obtained from each access point, and, for each station, it is determined as to whether it is present or absent according to association information. A phase of switching off at least one fronthaul network is initiated when all the stations are determined as being absent from the communication network.

  • Patent number: 11956134
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a multi-link receiving method and a multi-link receiver. The method includes the following. A reference delay range of a j-th data section is determined according to a preset delay time and a receiving time point of the j-th data section of an i-th data frame. In response to determining that the j-th data section is first received among an N number of data sections of the i-th data frame, the reference delay range of the j-th data section is taken as a designated delay range. In response to determining that receiving time points of the data sections of the i-th data frame are each within the designated delay range, the i-th data frame is restored based on the N number of data sections of the i-th data frame.

  • Patent number: 11956136
    Abstract: Systems and methods for selectively generating a telemetry report to calculate a flow or bit rate are disclosed. The methods include calculating a hash value of a packet, using it as a key to query a bloom filter, and obtaining a packet count. If the packet count reaches a trigger value, a telemetry report is generated and sent, along with the ingress timestamp, hash value, and the packet count, to the collector for calculating the flow rate (or bit rate). The collector compares the packet count and ingress timestamp of the packet of the first telemetry report with a second telemetry report, both reports being generated at various trigger values, and calculates the flow rate. If a hash collision is detected, the calculations are voided and an update to the hash function is suggested.

  • Patent number: 11901998
    Abstract: Example wireless communications methods and apparatus with two-way beam failure recovery are disclosed. One example method includes receiving a downlink beam failure recovery request by a network device from a client device indicating at least one new downlink candidate beam determined to replace at least one failed downlink beam. The network device detects at least one failed uplink beam, determines at least one new uplink candidate beam to replace the detected at least one failed uplink beam, and generates uplink redirection information indicating the determined at least one new uplink candidate beam. A response including the generated uplink redirection information is generated by the network device, and transmitted to the client device.

  • Patent number: 11902184
    Abstract: PCIe devices installed in host computers communicating with service nodes can provide virtualized NVMe over fabric services. A workload on the host computer can submit an SQE on a NVMe SQ. The PCI device can read the SQE to obtain a command identifier, an OpCode, and a namespace identifier (NSID). The SQE can be used to produce a LTP packet that includes the opcode, the NSID, and a request identifier. The LTP packet can be sent to the service node, which may access a SAN in accordance with the opcode and NSID, and can respond to the LTP with a second LTP that includes the request identifier and a status indicator. The PCI device can use the status indicator and the request identifier to produce a CQE that is placed on a NVMe CQ associated with the SQ.

  • Patent number: 11818773
    Abstract: An apparatus for a UE includes processing circuitry coupled to memory. To configure the UE for shared spectrum channel access in a 5G-NR system, the processing circuitry is to decode a synchronization signal (SS)/physical broadcast channel (PBCH) block (SSB) to obtain a master information block (MIB). System information block 1 (SIB1) configuration information is determined using the MIB. The SIB1 configuration information is used to configure a Type 0 PDCCH common search space (CSS) set (CORESET). The processing circuitry is to monitor for a PDCCH in the Type 0 PDCCH CSS set over slots that include Type 0 PDCCH monitoring occasions. At least one of the slots includes the SSB and the CORESET multiplexed according to multiplexing pattern 1. The PDCCH is detected in at least one of the Type 0 PDCCH monitoring occasions. A SIB1 is decoded using downlink control information (DCI) received via the detected PDCCH.

  • Patent number: 11800408
    Abstract: Embodiments include methods for notifying of changes to an access network's (AN) compliance with a QoS requirement for a data flow between an application server and an application associated with a user equipment served by the AN. Such embodiments include receiving, from a core network (CN), a first safeguard time associated with the QoS requirement and representing an amount of time required, prior to AN non-compliance with the QoS requirement, to adapt the application for safe operation during the AN non-compliance. Embodiments also include determining that, at approximately a first instance in the future, the AN is likely to be non-compliant with the QoS requirement; and sending, to the CN, a first notification indicating a likelihood of future AN non-compliance with the QoS requirement. The first notification is sent at least the first safeguard time before the first instance. Embodiments include complementary methods performed by CNs and application servers.
