Abstract: A gateway device and a configuration client for supporting selective forwarding of messages published to a group address or a virtual address in a wireless mesh network of communicatively coupled communication devices, such as a Bluetooth Mesh system. The configuration client maintains a mapping between unicast addresses of communication devices and group and virtual addresses in the network. The gateway device receives, from the configuration client, unicast addresses of those communication devices collectively identified by the group or virtual address in a received message. When the retrieved unicast addresses are all serviced by the gateway device, the message is transmitted by the gateway device on all interfaces corresponding to the communication devices addressed by the retrieved unicast addresses. When the retrieved unicast addresses are not all serviced by the gateway device, the message is transmitted by the gateway device on all except one of the interfaces.

Abstract: A man-in-the-middle protection module can monitor data traffic exchanged between a source and destination nodes over a source-destination link via a network. The module can utilize a traffic probe packet to determine a packet delay associated with the data traffic. The module can store the packet delay and can determine that the packet delay is greater than a normal packet delay. If so, the module can determine that an attacker has compromised the source-destination link. The module can command a virtual machine associated with the source node to be decommissioned. The module can instruct a virtualization orchestrator to create a new source node. The data traffic can be rerouted to be exchanged between the new source node and the destination node over a new source-destination link via the network. The module can create and send fake data traffic towards the MitM attacker over the source-destination link via the network.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for positioning a user equipment (UE). In aspects, a listening node determines a first time of arrival (ToA) at the listening node of a first radio frequency (RF) signal sent by a transmission-reception point (TRP) to the UE, determines a second ToA at the listening node of a second RF signal sent by the UE to the TRP, determines a time difference between the first ToA and the second ToA, and enables a positioning entity to estimate a location of the UE based on the time difference. The positioning entity calculates a distance between the listening node and the UE based on the time difference, a propagation time between the TRP and the listening node, a propagation time between the TRP and the UE, and a time difference between a ToA of the first RF signal at the UE and a transmission time of the second RF signal.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may refrain from transmitting channel state information (CSI) if the CSI is configured to be transmitted during an inactive discontinuous reception (DRX) duration. The UE may determine that the CSI is configured to be transmitted during the inactive DRX duration based on determining that some or all of the configured time slot for transmitting the CSI occurs while the UE is operating in the inactive DRX duration. The UE may transmit feedback information, such as an acknowledgement (ACK), whether or not the UE drops the CSI.
