  • Patent number: 11831446
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus of transmitting a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK/NACK). A first set of HARQ-ACK/NACK including at least one timing value is identified. The at least one HARQ-ACK/NACK timing value is a time difference between a downlink time unit in which a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) is received and an uplink time unit in which a HARQ-ACK/NACK associated with the PDSCH is transmitted. A second set including at least one downlink time associated with a HARQ-ACK/NACK feedback is determined based on the first set. A codebook for the HARQ-ACK/NACK is generated based on a size of the codebook. The size of the codebook is identified based on the second set including the at least one downlink time. The codebook for the HARQ-ACK/NACK is transmitted to the base station in the uplink time unit.

  • Patent number: 11818022
    Abstract: Methods and system for directing traffic flows to a fast data path or a slow data path are disclosed. Parsers can produce packet header vectors (PHVs) for use in match-action units. The PHVs are also used to generate feature vectors for the traffic flows. A flow training engine produces a classification model. Feature vectors input to the classification model result in output predictions predicting if a traffic flow will be long lived or short lived. The classification models are used by network appliances to install traffic flows into fast data paths or the slow data paths based on the predictions.

  • Patent number: 11785492
    Abstract: An anomaly detection and analysis system generates analysis or summary of the anomalies detected from key performance indicators (KPIs). The system receives anomaly data reporting anomalies detected in key performance indicator (KPI) data. The system classifies the reported anomalies into a plurality of anomaly items, wherein anomalies from KPI data that share a set of features are assigned to one anomaly item. The system computes a ranking score for each anomaly item by assigning predefined weights for different anomaly types that are present in the anomaly item. The system sorts a list of anomaly items from the plurality of anomaly items into a sorted list of anomaly items according to the ranking scores computed for the plurality of anomaly items. The system sends the sorted list of anomaly items to a user device for presentation.

  • Patent number: 11751190
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In one example, a first user equipment (UE) identifies a trigger condition associated with a first communication link with a base station and establishes a second communication link with a second UE. The UE may transmit a relay request to the second UE based on the trigger condition, wherein the relay request instructs the second UE to relay communications for the first UE. The first UE communicates with the base station via the second communication link. In another example, a base station establishes communication links with a first and second UE. The base station receives a data forwarding request that instructs the base station to use the second UE to relay communications between it and the first UE. The base station communicates with the first UE via the second communication link based at least in part on the relay request.

  • Patent number: 11700586
    Abstract: A resynchronization signal (RSS) may extend across multiple physical resource blocks (PRBs) or subframes, which may cause the RRS to be scheduled to overlap with other downlink transmissions. Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described for management of RSS and one or more other transmission types that may have overlapping wireless resources with the RSS. If one or more other downlink transmissions are scheduled for resources that overlap with resources scheduled for an RSS transmission, the UE may receive the RSS transmission or the one or more other downlink transmissions, or a combination thereof, based on a prioritization of the transmission types of the one or more other downlink transmissions relative to RSS. The RSS transmission or the one or more other transmissions may be delayed, dropped, punctured, or rate-matched when the RSS transmission and the one or more other downlink transmissions conflict.

  • Patent number: 11665086
    Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing routing information between software containers or other virtualized environments within a network, and providing inter-container routing between the software services operating on the network, are disclosed herein. The system utilizes an existing routing protocol such as Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and establishes an overlay network that provides end-to-end connectivity between services of a customer operating in an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) network, while maintaining isolation from the traffic of other customers of the IaaS network. The system uses OSPF to learn aspects of the routes between containers in the network, and further builds a customer-specific overlay network based on IP-to-IP encapsulation of the OSPF messages.

  • Patent number: 11632723
    Abstract: Presented herein are techniques for using mobile client density to compensate for variations in path loss between neighboring access points. In one example, a device (e.g., wireless controller) determines one or more mobile client density variation trends in a wireless network location and determines one or more neighbor message power variation trends between at least first and second access points within the wireless network location over a time period. The device generates one or more correlation bias factors using the mobile client density variation trends and the neighbor message power variation trends over the time period. The device determines a path loss between at least the first and second access points based on the correlation bias factor and data associated with neighbor messages sent between the first and second access points.

  • Patent number: 11589250
    Abstract: Methods and systems for citizens broadband radio service (CBRS) interference management using dual subscriber identification module (SIM) devices are described. The method includes assigning a physical cell identity (PCI) to each CBRS device (CBSD) granted unlicensed spectrum by a spectrum access system (SAS). Each spectrum granted CBSD may exchange PCIs with neighbor spectrum granted CBSDs to resolve PCIs and maintains a PCI table. A dual SIM device may be connected to a CBSD via a first SIM. Each spectrum granted CBSD having a connected dual SIM device reports a number of PCIs detected by the dual SIM device(s). A SAS designated dual SIM device may use a second SIM to measure power values of PCIs detected by the designated dual SIM device which are absent from a provided PCI table. The measured power values may be used by the SAS to make cluster interference decisions.

  • Patent number: 11563514
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a network may schedule a user equipment (UE) for multiple transmission/reception point (TRP) communication. The network may transmit a single downlink control information (DCI) message to the UE to dynamically configure multiple transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states for the multiple TRPs. In a first example, the DCI message may include a bit field indicating a set of antenna ports and the multi-TRP scheme for transmission. In a second example, the DCI message may include a separate field indicating the multi-TRP scheme (e.g., based on UE capabilities). In a third example, the DCI may indicate redundancy versions (RVs) for different TRPs in an RV field or across multiple fields. In a fourth example, the DCI may include an indication of a precoding resource block group (PRG) size that may be interpreted differently based on the indicated multi-TRP scheme.
