Abstract: Techniques for configuring shared routing tables for network devices are provided. In some embodiments, a shared routing context is configured to include common routes across several local routing contexts. When a first packet is received at a first local routing context that is to be routed using one of the common routes, NAT operations may be performed on the first packet and then the shared routing context is used to process the first packet. Similarly, when a second packet is received at a second local routing context that is to be routed using the same common route, NAT operations may be performed on the second packet and then the shared routing context is used to process the second packet.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication technique for converging IoT technology with a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data transfer rate beyond a 4G system, and a system therefor.

Abstract: A communications base station is mounted on an aircraft such as a drone or a tethered balloon to provide wireless coverage over a remote area. The use of an airborne device allows a much wider coverage area to be served by one base station, and therefore one backhaul connection, than would be possible by ground based antennas. Power and maintenance savings are achieved as the aircraft is launched only when activity is detected on the ground in the area of coverage, and returns to a ground station when such activity ceases. Activity may be detected for example by sensors on a highway identifying vehicles approaching the coverage area.
Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit a configuration indicating a transmission configuration indicator (TCI) state switching pattern and a TCI state switching period to a user equipment (UE). The UE may perform TCI state switching according to the TCI state switching pattern and period, and the UE may receive a downlink transmission according to the TCI state switching pattern. The UE may receive a downlink control information (DCI) including an indication of a TCI state for a subsequent TTI. The UE may receive the downlink signal in accordance with both the TCI state switching pattern and the indication in the DCI. The UE may receive a configuration message indicating a first DCI state, receive a DCI indicating a second TCI state for a subsequent TTI, switch to the second TCI state, and receive a downlink signal using the second TCI state.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling connectivity of a user equipment device (UE). When a UE is served with dual connectivity by a first access node over a first connection in accordance with a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second access node over a second connection in accordance with a second RAT, initiation of a voice call for the UE will be detected. And in response to at least detecting the initiation of the voice call for the UE, the first access node will invoke transition of the UE from being served with the dual connectivity over the first connection and the second connection to instead being served with standalone connectivity over the first connection.
Abstract: Controlling and reducing overhead in control channels in 5G or other next generation communication systems is provided herein. In connection with a data transmission between a device and a network node device, an overhead management component (OMC) can analyze one or more factors associated with the device, including speed or Doppler metric(s) of the device, type of service associated with the device, historical HARQ statistics for the device, configured threshold value for CSI estimation, device capability regarding redundancy version support, or another factor(s). Based on analysis results, OMC can determine whether to utilize a single redundancy version state or a multiple redundancy versions state. If the single redundancy version state is selected, OMC can generate control information that does not include redundancy version information, the control information being communicated via a control channel OMC can communicate RRC signal to the device to indicate the determined redundancy version state.
Abstract: This disclosure provides systems and methods for routing and topology management of computer networks with steerable beam antennas. A network controller can generate an input graph for a first time period. The input graph can have a plurality of vertices each representing a respective moving node and a plurality of edges each representing a possible link between a pair of moving nodes. The input graph also can include corresponding location information for each of the moving nodes during the first time period. A solver module can receive information corresponding to the input graph, a maximum degree for each vertex in the input graph, and a set of provisioned network flows. The solver module can determine a subgraph representing a network topology based on the input graph, the maximum degree for each vertex in the input graph, and the set of provisioned network flows, such that a number of edges associated with each vertex in the subgraph does not exceed the maximum degree for each vertex.

Abstract: Load balancing through selective multicast replication of data packets in a computer network. Specifically, selective multicast replication entails facilitating the graceful removal or hitless addition of one or more load balancing nodes in a load balancing cluster by multicasting, rather than encapsulating, received data packets from any given client to the load balancing cluster. Further, selective multicast replication considers whether received data packets are synchronize (SYN) or non-synchronize (non-SYN) data packets, in order to employ an appropriate forwarding group towards forwarding the received data packets to one or more appropriate load balancing nodes in the load balancing cluster.
