Abstract: The present application relates to communications between a partner network and a wide area network (WAN) via the Internet. Although Internet service providers may act as autonomous systems, the WAN may control routing from the partner network by advertising unicast border gateway protocol (BGP) address prefixes for a plurality of front-end devices in the WAN. An agent in the partner network measures a plurality of paths to a service within the WAN. Each of the plurality of paths is associated with one of the plurality of front-end devices and a respective unicast BGP address prefix. The WAN selects a path within the WAN for the service. The WAN exports a routing rule to the agent. The agent forwards data packets for the service to the respective BGP address prefix via the Internet. The WAN receives data packets for the service of the partner network at the selected device.

Abstract: A method of wireless communication by a transmitting sidelink user equipment (UE) determines at least one quasi-co-location (QCL) relationship between antenna ports of the transmitting sidelink UE. The QCL relationship corresponds to carrier frequency offset (CFO), average delay, delay spread, Doppler shift, and/or Doppler spread across the antenna ports of the transmitting sidelink UE. Each port maps to a different transmission and reception point (TRP). The method also indicates the QCL relationship(s) to a receiving sidelink UE. A method of wireless communication by a receiving sidelink UE receives a message from TRPs of a transmitting sidelink UE. The message indicates a QCL assumption for the TRPs. The method also individually measures reference signals received from each transmission port of the TRPs. The method may also determine whether signaling from the TRPs satisfies all conditions for the QCL assumption, and report to the transmitting sidelink UE a result of the determining.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the prioritization of devices taking part in a multi-user random access wireless communication. Based on some known conditions, devices that comply with the conditions are given preferential treatment during the random access period.
