  • Patent number: 12262438
    Abstract: A wireless device (14) transmits, to a radio network node (12), a radio resource control (RRC) connection request (18) that requests the establishment, re-establishment, or resumption of an RRC connection (16). The RRC connection request (18) indicates a type of core network to which the wireless device (14) selects to connect. The wireless device (14) in some embodiments receives a response to the RRC connection request (18), based on the type of core network to which the wireless device (14) selects to connect. For example, the wireless device (14) may receive the response using a protocol stack determined based on the type of core network to which the wireless device (14) selects to connect.

  • Patent number: 12250286
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure enable a universal router within a vehicle. The universal router includes a reception pipeline that ingests layer 2/layer 3 (L2/L3) communications associated with each L2/L3 communication protocol, extracts communication data from the L2/L3 communications and generates a Layer 4 and/or Layer 5 (L4/L5) data unit for each L2/L3 communication based on the communication data. A processor ingests the L4/L5 data units and generates transformed L4/L5 data units based on predefined rules. A router determines a destination interface associated with each transformed L4/L5 data unit based on the communication data and routes each transformed LA/L5 data unit to a transmission pipeline associated with each destination interface.
