  • Patent number: 11799760
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for routing a plurality of session packets across a network toward a destination modifies each packet to include a sequence number that is different from the sequence number of other packets in the plurality of packets. Accordingly, at this point, each of the plurality of packets is transformed into a corresponding plurality of processed packets. The method also duplicates the plurality of processed packets to produce a corresponding plurality of duplicated packets. Next, the method forwards the plurality of processed packets toward the destination using a first stateful path through the network, and correspondingly forwards the plurality of duplicated packets toward the destination using a second stateful path through the network. In preferred embodiments, the first stateful path is different from the second stateful path. For example, the two paths may be entirely distinct in that they share no common intermediary elements.

  • Patent number: 11764932
    Abstract: A base station transmits an indication of a configuration indicating one or more time-variable parameters for a group-specific wake-up signal (WUS) to an associated group of user equipment (UEs). The base station determines a value of the one or more time-variable parameters based on a time associated with the group-specific WUS and transmits the group-specific WUS to the group of UEs based on the determined value. A UE in the group of UEs receives the indication of the configuration from the base station and determines a value of the one or more time-variable parameters based on a time associated with the group-specific WUS. The UE monitors for the group-specific WUS based on the determined value.

  • Patent number: 11743165
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to creating a cognitive heterogeneous ad hoc mesh network via generation and utilization of a participant table. Participant object transmit notification signals to inform other participants objects in line-of-sight of their position and movement. Mobile participants that receive these notification signals update a local version of the participant table. If the receiving mobile participant is responsible for forwarding participant table updates to the sending mobile participant, then the receiving mobile participant includes the received notification signal with the transmission of its next notification signal to propagate the participant table update to a stationary participant. The stationary participant can then transmit participant table updates to other mobile participants. If a stationary participant is not accessible or not functioning, the participants continue to propagate participant table changes when a responsible forwarding participant changes.
