Patent number: 12245124Abstract: A communication device mounted on a vehicle, e.g., On-Board Unit (OBU), communicates collision related information to other road entities, e.g., other vehicles or roadside units (RSUs) or a server, after a collision is detected. The OBU may temporarily store basic safety messages (BSMs) (and optionally sensor data) for a predesignated number of seconds before discarding the BSMs (and optionally sensor data) on a continuing basis. When a collision is detected, the OBU sends a report, e.g., to a server, with the stored BSMs (and optionally sensor data) to a server. After a collision detection, the OBU may send a request to other vehicles to upload relevant collision related information. Additionally, if a first vehicle detects the collision of a second vehicle, the first vehicle may communicate collision related information to other entities and a server.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2022Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Abha Khosla, Soumya Das, Srujith Reddy Katamreddy, Phani Kumar Dasam

Patent number: 12231226Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems and methods for polarization division multiple access. A polarized antenna system having a plurality of differently-polarized antennas is envisioned for wirelessly communicating with a plurality of user devices in a wireless network environment. Each polarized pair of antenna elements, using a particular frequency, will transmit signals using a polarization-frequency pair and a base station will instruct user devices which polarization-frequency pair they should tune to for processing the appropriate downlink signal. Using OFDMA with a polarized antenna system increases capacity without the need for deploying additional base stations.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2021Date of Patent: February 18, 2025Assignee: T-MOBILE INNOVATIONSInventors: Akin Ozozlu, Nagi A.

Patent number: 12212497Abstract: Responsive to matching a site prefix to IPv6 network traffic from clients, the traffic as intended, and responsive to not matching the site prefix, classifying the corresponding traffic as unintended. An initial rate of packet occurrence and predict load caused by intended traffic and predicting load caused by unintended traffic is calculated, based on an initial rate of packet occurrence. The predicted traffic loads are fed back by configuring behavior of network modules according to the predictions of intended traffic load and unintended traffic load. Packet processing traffic at the network modules is based on traffic classification from the outcome of the AI-neuron.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2021Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Assignee: Fortinet, Inc.Inventor: Srinivasa Subbarao Neeli
