  • Patent number: 12231962
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for optimizing layer assignment based on a total QCI value associated with a UE when the UE falls back from a first wireless access technology to a second wireless access technology, such as from 5G to LTE. QCI values and/or one or more applications running on a UE are monitored to determined when a threshold is met. The UE may receive or initiate a voice call, and at this point, the UE may fallback to LTE from 5G.

  • Patent number: 12224884
    Abstract: One or more shared data channels, e.g., PDSCH, PUSCH, PSSCH, are configured to be DMRS-free, thus allowing the resources which would be used for DMRS to be used to convey additional traffic data signals. Channel estimation based on control channel DMRS, e.g., PDCCH DMRS, PUCCH DMRS, or PSSCH/PSCCH DMRS, is used to demodulate and/or decode the traffic channel signals communicated on the DMRS-free shared traffic channel resources. Antenna port hopping is implemented as part of the PDCCH configuration to support a DMRS-free PDSCH. The antenna port hopping of the PDCCH is used to obtain a set of channel estimates based on PDDCH DMRS corresponding to different antenna ports which will match the antenna ports used for the PDSCH.

  • Patent number: 12143324
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, a base station may configure a user equipment (UE) to perform demodulation reference signal (DMRS) enhancement whereby the UE may transmit physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) or physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) repetitions with different DMRS densities (e.g., a first DMRS density configuration having a first or default DMRS pattern within a transmission time interval (TTI) that is higher than a second DMRS density configuration having fewer DMRSs than the normal DMRS pattern or no DMRSs within the TTI). The UE may identify TTIs (e.g., slots) that satisfy one or more phase continuity rules, and may perform DMRS enhancement in the identified TTIs, and may restart a mapping sequence indicated in the DMRS mapping pattern at each bundle interval boundary or when consecutive uplink symbol periods within a bundling interval do not satisfy a phase continuity condition.

  • Patent number: 12132662
    Abstract: A port extender provides individual flow control for ports multiplexed from a network device. The port extender is configured to multiplex a network device port across the front panel ports on the port extender. The port extender also determines that an input buffer for the network device port is overloaded, and generates a Priority-based Flow Control (PFC) frame identifying that the network device port is congested. The port extender sends the PFC frame via the network device port to the network device. The PFC frame causes the network device coupled to the network device port to discontinue sending data for transmission from the plurality of ports on the port extender.
