  • Patent number: 11751232
    Abstract: A communication management resource partitions allocated wireless bandwidth into a first portion (such as first virtual bandwidth or first bandwidth part) and a second portion (such as virtual bandwidth or second bandwidth part). The communication management resource determines wireless interference associated with transmission of first wireless communications over the different bandwidth portions such as from a wireless base station to multiple communication devices while in a first mode. Depending on the wireless interference determined during the first mode, the communication management resource controls conveyance of second wireless communications over the allocated wireless bandwidth to the multiple communication devices in a second mode. In one instance, the communication management system operates one or more communication devices in a device-to-device mode to alleviate wireless interference associated with use of the allocated wireless bandwidth.

  • Patent number: 11722925
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for quantifying quality of several service classes provided by a link between first and second forwarding nodes in a wide area network (WAN). At a first forwarding node, the method computes and stores first and second path quality metric (PQM) values based on packets sent from the second forwarding node for the first and second service classes. The different service classes in some embodiments are associated with different quality of service (QoS) guarantees that the WAN offers to the packets. In some embodiments, the computed PQM value for each service class quantifies the QoS provided to packets processed through the service class. In some embodiments, the first forwarding node adjusts the first and second PQM values as it processes more packets associated with the first and second service classes. The first forwarding node also periodically forwards to the second forwarding node the first and second PQM values that it maintains for the first and second service classes.

  • Patent number: 11711862
    Abstract: The disclosed technology provides a system and method for allocating frequency bands to a mobile device or user equipment (UE) based on priorities assigned to the different frequency bands. When no priority is assigned to the frequency bands, when a special or reserved priority is assigned, or when equal priority is assigned, the frequency band allocation to the UE is based on a default frequency allocation algorithm (e.g., based on a relative bandwidth of the different frequency bands). When a UE is capable of utilizing a first and a second frequency band, and the priority assigned to the first frequency band is higher than the priority assigned to the second frequency band, the network (e.g., eNB/gNB) overrides the default algorithm and preferentially allocates the first frequency band to UE even when the first frequency band has a smaller bandwidth than the second frequency band or when the default algorithm would otherwise prefer the first frequency band.
