  • Patent number: 9877225
    Abstract: In order to accommodate expansion of a mobile network and detailed QoS control, a transmission VXLAN header is generated by setting a logical group to which an input packet belongs as a logical network number in the VNI field of a VXLAN header and setting QoS information as traffic control information in a predefined, predetermined field. The generated transmission VXLAN header is added to the input packet, which is then output as a VXLAN header-added output packet to a mobile backhaul. When a VXLAN header-added input packet is input from the mobile backhaul, the received VXLAN header that was added is removed, and the logical network number that is set in the VNI field of the received VXLAN header and the traffic control information that is set in the predefined, predetermined field are extracted. Traffic control is performed on the basis of the extracted logical network number and traffic control information, and the packet is output as an output packet.

  • Patent number: 9871728
    Abstract: In a method for forwarding packets in a network device a plurality of hash values is generated based on a lookup key. The plurality of hash values includes at least a first hash value generated using a first hash function, a second hash value generated using a second hash function and a third hash value generated using a third hash function. The third hash function is different from the first hash function and the second hash function. An entry in a lookup table is selected using the first hash value and the second hash value, wherein the selected entry includes an offset for the lookup key. A forwarding entry in a forwarding table is selected using the third hash value and the offset for the lookup key, wherein the forwarding entry corresponds to the lookup key. The packet is forwarded to one or more ports of the network device using the selected forwarding entry.

  • Patent number: 9860886
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a wireless access system, and provides methods for transmitting downlink data with a new carrier type (NCT) by using transmission diversity and devices for supporting same. According to one embodiment of the present invention, a method for user equipment receiving downlink data in the wireless access system supporting the new carrier type (NCT) comprises the steps of: receiving an upper layer signal comprising indication information indicating demodulation of downlink data into a user equipment-specific reference signal (URS), wherein the downlink data is transmitted by means of a distributed virtual resource block (DVRB) technique; receiving the downlink data and the URS transmitted using the DVRB technique by applying different precoding matrices to a first slot and a second slot in a subframe; demodulating the URS and estimating channel information with respect to the first slot and the second slot; and demodulating downlink data based on the channel information.

  • Patent number: 9843941
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for delaying execution of a corrective action in a wireless environment. During a first time period, a performance level is detected. The performance level is determined to not match a performance criterion. However, a corrective action that improves the performance level is not immediately executed. During a second time period, a set of network activities is detected. If the set of network activities does not match a modification criterion, then execution of the corrective action is delayed. The set of network activities is detected periodically until the set of network activities matches the modification criterion. If the set of network activities matches the modification criterion, then the corrective action is executed.

  • Patent number: 9844057
    Abstract: Design of channel usage beacon signals (CUBS) in cooperative networks is disclosed. After detecting a clear channel assessment (CCA), a transmitter selects a configuration of a CUBS associated with the transmitter based on the CCA opportunity assigned to the network. The configuration of the CUBS associated with the transmitter may include a set of frequency subcarriers for CUBS transmissions. The transmitter transmits the CUBS according to transmission characteristics based on the CCA opportunity. In additional aspects, randomization may be introduced into the frequency subcarrier allocations of CUBS configurations where the transmitter receives assignment of virtual frequency subcarriers for CUBS transmissions and maps the virtual subcarrier to physical frequency subcarriers for CUBS transmission. Additional aspects allow for pattern offset values to be determined independently from the transmitter cell identifier.
