  • Patent number: 11950314
    Abstract: Example configuration methods and apparatus are described. An example communications system includes a master node and a secondary node that jointly provide a service for a terminal. One example method includes generating configuration information for a signaling radio bearer (SRB) by the secondary node, where the SRB is used to transmit a radio resource control (RRC) message between the secondary node and the terminal. The secondary node sends the configuration information for the SRB to the master node, so that the configuration information for the SRB is sent to the terminal through the master node. The secondary node receives a result of configuring the SRB by the terminal by using the configuration information for the SRB. In this way, the SRB can be established on the secondary node, and used for RRC message transmission between the secondary node and the terminal.

  • Patent number: 11917495
    Abstract: The invention provides methods, systems, and devices for detecting a physical collision between two client devices based on sensor data. A server computer receives a first collision signature from a first client device, and a second collision signature from a second client device. Based on determining that a correlation of the first collision signature and the second collision signature does not achieve a detection threshold, the server computer lowers, for a limited period of time, the detection threshold. If the server computer receives, within the limited period of time, a third collision signature from the first client device, and a fourth collision signature from the second client device, and determines that a correlation of the third collision signature and the fourth collision signature achieves the lowered detection threshold, the server computer detects a collision between the first and second client devices.
