Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for a retransmission protocol that utilizes compressed feedback. Various implementations relate generally to a compressed feedback technique for hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ). Upon receiving a compressed feedback value, a sending device may generate a retransmission codeblock. The retransmission codeblock may be derived from multiple codeblocks in a set of codeblocks. A receiving device can use the retransmission codeblock to obtain any failed codeblock in the set of codeblocks based on all other previously decoded codeblocks in the set of codeblocks. Thus, the receiving device does not need to indicate which codeblock in the set failed, but only needs to send a compressed feedback value that indicates which sets of codeblocks have had a single codeblock failure.

Abstract: A satellite IRD (Integrated Receiver Decoder) complies with DiSEqC protocol and is capable of receiving a program of a specific channel from a single cable interface device through a cable. The DiSEqC transmitter transmits a first command corresponding to the specific channel to the single cable interface device through the I/O interface and the cable. The DiSEqC receiver acquires a second command transmitted on the cable through the I/O interface in response to the DiSEqC transmitter transmitting the first command. The detecting circuit compares the second command with the first command to generate a comparison result. The DiSEqC receiver monitors the I/O interface in response to the comparison result indicating that the first command and the second command are different to determine whether there is a command other than the first command transmitted on the cable.

Abstract: A processor-implemented method includes receiving, from a mobile device, transmission information corresponding to an audio data transmission associated with an audio data packet loss of one or more audio data packets. The processor determines, based at least in part on the transmission information, a geographic region associated with a wireless communication network transceiver.

Abstract: A system and method for dynamic mesh network discovery is disclosed. In embodiments, the system assigns each network asset (e.g., unmanned or manned aircraft or like mobile nodes) a unique asset number. Each asset has a controller coupled to a datalink including antenna elements and a memory for storing an asset table. Each asset periodically broadcasts an asset status message including the asset number. When a status message is received, the receiving asset compares the received asset number to its own asset number. If the received asset number is higher (e.g., of lower priority) than its own asset number, the receiving asset establishes a bidirectional mesh network connection to the broadcasting asset. Assets on the receiving end of a network connection interrogate the establishing asset for its asset number, such that assets on both sides of the connection know the identity of the other and update their asset tables accordingly.
