  • Patent number: 11139923
    Abstract: A transmit radio node is configured to transmit one or more code blocks, CBs, of a transport block to a receive radio node. The transmit radio node is also configured to receive feedback from the receive radio node that positively or negatively acknowledges each of one or more first code block groups, CBGs, into which the one or more transmitted CBs are allocated according to a first CB-to-CBG allocation. The transmit radio node is further configured to re-transmit to the receive radio node any CBs that the first CB-to-CBG allocation allocates to one or more first CBGs which the feedback negatively acknowledged. Moreover, the transmit radio node is configured to receive feedback from the receive radio node that positively or negatively acknowledges each of one or more second CBGs into which the re-transmitted CBs are allocated according to a second CB-to-CBG allocation. The first and second CB-to-CBG allocations are different.

  • Patent number: 11076409
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein for allocating transmit power between precoding resource groups (PRGs) and/or transmit chains of a user equipment (UE) to reduce the amount of total transmit power that is unused. The UE may determine a set of precoding scaling factors for each PRG to efficiently allocate a total transmit power between the PRGs using a two-stage approach. During a first stage, the UE may determine PRG-specific precoding scaling factors for each PRG associated with an uplink transmission. During a second stage, the UE may determine a residual precoding scaling factor to apply to all the PRGs associated with the uplink transmission and determine overall precoding scaling factors for each PRG. The second stage may be configured to refine the scaling factors determined in the first stage such that at least some of the unused transmit power is allocated to at least one of the PRGs or transmit chains.

  • Patent number: 11057350
    Abstract: Technologies for extending a subnet across on-premises and cloud-based deployments are provided. An example method may include creating a VPC in a cloud for hosting an endpoint being moved from an on-premises site. For the endpoint to retain its IP address, a subnet range assigned to the VPC, based on the smallest subnet mask allowed by the cloud, is selected to include the IP address of the endpoint. The IP addresses from the assigned subnet range corresponding to on-premises endpoints are configured as secondary IP addresses on a Layer 2 (L2) proxy router instantiated in the VPC. The L2 proxy router establishes a tunnel to a cloud overlay router and directs traffic destined to on-premises endpoints, with IP addresses in the VPC subnet range thereto for outbound transmission. The cloud overly router updates the secondary IP addresses on the L2 proxy router based on reachability information for the on-premises site.

  • Patent number: 10986027
    Abstract: A method of congestion control implemented by a sender over a network link that includes a router having a queue. During a first state, information is received from a receiver. The information comprises an estimated maximum bandwidth for the link, a one-way transit time for traffic over the link, and an indication whether the link is congested. In response to the link being congested, the sender transitions to a second state. While in the second state, a sending rate of packets is reduced, in part to attempt to drain the queue of data packets contributed by the sender. The sender transitions to a third state when the sender estimates that the queue has been drained of the data packets contributed. During the third state, the sending rate is increased until either the sender transitions back to the first state, or receives a new indication that the link is congested.

  • Patent number: 10958594
    Abstract: A network control system includes a network controller, and an information processor connected to the network controller via a first communication path complying with a first standard. The network controller is connected to an external device via an another communication path complying with the first standard. In response to receiving a packet from a transmission source that is registered in advance, the network controller transfers the packet to the information processor via the first communication path. When the packet transferred from the network controller is a special packet that is registered in advance, the information processor notifies the network controller of a content of an instruction indicated by the special packet via a second communication path. The network controller generates a special packet including the content of the instruction notified from the information processor, and transmits the generated special packet to the external device via the another communication path.

  • Patent number: 10931799
    Abstract: An apparatus for handling resets corresponding to multiple reset domains comprises a transport network interconnecting elements to enable data to be transferred from one element to another, ingress circuitry to couple elements to the transport network, and egress circuitry to couple the transport network to the elements. The ingress circuitry couples source elements to the transport network, and is responsive to receiving data from a source element to generate at least one transport packet in order to send that data over the transport network. Each transport packet comprises a reset domain indicator indicative of the reset domain in which the source element operates. The egress circuitry couples the transport network to destination elements and, whilst a reset of a particular reset domain is asserted, discards transport packets for which the reset domain indicator indicates the particular reset domain.
