  • Patent number: 11405172
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for interference measurement and reporting by a UE. The interference measurement can be self-initiated by the UE or based on a request received from a BS. To measure the interference, the UE transmits a first signal in UL resources to a first BS concurrently with receiving a second signal in DL resources from one of the first BS or a second BS. The received second signal includes interference associated with the transmitted first signal. Based on the received second signal, the UE determines a level of the interference that is associated with the transmitted first signal. Information associated with the level of the interference is then transmitted to the first BS, such as an indication of a guard band that is to be incorporated between the UL resources and the DL resources.

  • Patent number: 11374858
    Abstract: Methods and system for directing traffic flows to a fast data path or a slow data path are disclosed. Parsers can produce packet header vectors (PHVs) for use in match-action units. The PHVs are also used to generate feature vectors for the traffic flows. A flow training engine produces a classification model. Feature vectors input to the classification model result in output predictions predicting if a traffic flow will be long lived or short lived. The classification models are used by network appliances to install traffic flows into fast data paths or the slow data paths based on the predictions.

  • Patent number: 11350442
    Abstract: During a sidelink process, a configured grant can be utilized for data reception. For example, one user device (e.g., gnodeB or local manager user equipment) can send a signal to a receiving UE indicating that the user device should monitor a specific channel for a specific time. The user device can then send another signal to a transmitting user equipment indicating that it needs to transmit on a specific sub channel at the specific time or window of time. Thus, the user device can facilitate scheduling of data transmissions/receptions such that radio resources are preserved.
