  • Patent number: 11973594
    Abstract: Devices, methods and non-transitory computer-readable medium for adaptively selective retransmissions in wireless communications are disclosed. The present application allows enhancing short packet data retransmission performance under short delay constraints. Using a retransmission indication for at least one segment of consecutive forward error correction (FEC) encoded bits reduces feedback signaling overhead compared to signaling retransmission requests individually for each of the coded bits. Accordingly, active hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) transmissions with low amounts of feedback information are enabled.

  • Patent number: 11956648
    Abstract: The present invention relates to commissioning in the presence of multiple networks. A network node, which is expected to join a second network, joins a first network and enters a second state from a first state once it has joined the first network. Once it has received from the first network a message to leave it, it enters a third state from the second state. The network node entered the third state becomes responsive with respect to the first network and/or the second network by receiving a dedicated message to join network or is unresponsive with respect to the first network. Then, it enters the first state from the third state once the network node has received the dedicated message from a coordinator of the first network after closing the first network and/or from a coordinator of the second network, or upon expiry of a timer.
