Abstract: The techniques described herein detect which one of multiple different radio states a radio communication unit of a client device is currently operating in. The techniques may also learn one or more transition parameters that, once satisfied or reached, may switch the radio communication unit from one radio state to another radio state. Using the detected radio state and the learned transition parameters, the client device can optimize network communications.

Abstract: A first computing device and a second computing device may both be located behind the same gateway. The first computing device and the second computing device may not be part of a same local area network. Accordingly, the first computing device and the second computing device may not be discoverable to each other via standard layer two discovery protocols. The first computing device may be a tunneled device and the second computing device may be a non-tunneled device. Accordingly, the first computing device and the second computing device may not be discoverable to each other via standard layer three discovery protocols. Described herein are systems and methods for performing IP packet manipulation to facilitate a local discovery session between the first computing device and the second computing device.

Abstract: Upon detection of a failure of a communication link between a remote management system and a communication node, a bypass link is established. The remote management system evaluates whether additional communication nodes can act as a bypass for management communications between the remote management system and the communication node whose management communication link has failed. The remote management system instructs a selected bypass communication node to establish the bypass management communication link between the bypass node and the disconnected node whose management communication link has failed. Depending on the relationship between nodes, management communications sent using the bypass link may be secured. The bypass link in some implementations may include multiple bypass communication nodes linked together to provide a chain of bypass management communication links between the remote management system and the disconnected communication node.

Abstract: A wireless device receives a first downlink control information (DCI). The first DCI comprises: a first trigger field indicating that the first DCI is triggered in response to a second DCI indicating a second trigger; and a field indicating a validation duration for receiving the second DCI via a cell. A discontinuous reception (DRX) process determines that a medium access control (MAC) entity is not in an Active Time. The MAC entity, during at least a portion of the validation duration, monitors a control channel for the second trigger on the cell even if the MAC entity is not in the Active Time.

Abstract: Satellite communication methods and payloads are described. An imbalance in uplink and downlink availability may be mitigated through digitizing uplink spectrum, extracting guard band channels, and grouping the guard band channels to create a composite channel. The composite channel is converted to analog and RF up-converted, amplified, and multiplexed with other downlink analog channels before being transmitted to Earth. The guard bands may be from the same band of spectrum or different bands of spectrum, such as C band, Ka band, Ku band, etc. A satellite payload is described with dual output multiplexers having partially overlapping channels and a dual feed configuration. In one downlink implementation, unused regional band spectrum may be dynamically allocated to a spot beam. In one uplink implementation, regional band spectrum may be shared by a spot beam using spatial separation of the regional uplink location from the spot beam coverage area and digital cancellation techniques.

Abstract: In a MIMO detector, a slicing list detection scheme employs a complex plane to represent symbols in an alphabet, in which all decision regions are bounded by either vertical lines or horizontal lines. A K-best scheme accesses the complex plane and an offline-generated lookup table to detect elements of a received vector. At each level, the system prunes all but the K-best candidates from each surviving node through the slicing list detector.

Abstract: Aspects disclosed in the detailed description include antenna switching for a communication circuit. A communication circuit includes an antenna switching circuit that couples the communication circuit to a first antenna and/or a second antenna for radio frequency (RF) signal transmission and reception. The antenna switching circuit is configured to include fewer antenna switches compared to a conventional antenna switching circuit to reduce the cost and footprint of the communication circuit. Furthermore, by reducing the number of antenna switches in the antenna switching circuit, it is possible to improve RF isolation between the first antenna and the second antenna, thus leading to improved RF performance of the communication circuit.
