  • Patent number: 11968660
    Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques that enable optimizing licensed and unlicensed spectrum allocation within a service area of a base station node. More specifically, a spectrum allocation controller is described that is configured to identify, within a service area of a base station node, one or more available spectrum to facilitate the transmission of network traffic within the service area. The spectrum allocation controller may further determine network traffic that occurs in non-overlapping segments of the service area. In this way, network traffic within each segment may be allocated to a combination of available spectrum.

  • Patent number: 11855877
    Abstract: An information management method includes that a controller generates a first message carrying an address of a first next hop of a network device. The first message includes first identification information. The first identification information instructs the network device to delete, from a next hop table stored in the network device, an entry of the first next hop corresponding to the address of the first next hop. The network device receives the first message, and deletes the entry of the first next hop as indicated by the first identification information. The controller withdraw an unavailable next hop by separately sending information about the next hop to the network device without route prefix information, effectively saving a system resource occupied for route withdrawal message exchanging between the controller and the network device, and improving service processing efficiency.

  • Patent number: 11844063
    Abstract: A packet processing apparatus includes a memory, a processor, a first gate, and a second gate. The memory stores a plurality of allocation patterns for allocating an upstream or downstream of a link direction for each subframe within a predetermined period. The processor obtains a periodicity pattern of a high-priority packet for each of time slots within the subframe. The first gate opens and closes, for each of the time slots within the subframe, output of the high-priority packet. The second gate opens and closes, for each of the time slots within the subframe, output of a low-priority packet. The processor sets gate states of the first gate and the second gate for a predetermined time slot within the subframe in the same link direction as the periodicity pattern to a priority state in which the high-priority packet is preferentially output according to the periodicity pattern.

  • Patent number: 11800515
    Abstract: In a channel occupancy time (COT), a scheduling entity can transmit a first downlink (DL) transmission burst to a scheduled entity, and receive an uplink (UL) transmission burst from the scheduled entity. The scheduling entity can determine whether the scheduled entity performed a type 1 or type 2 channel access procedure for the UL transmission burst. A scheduled entity can use a first type of channel access procedure to initiate a first COT on a communication channel and request a network access node to perform a second type of channel access procedure in a next DL transmission burst. A network access node can receive a message from a scheduled entity, wherein the message comprises a control indication requesting the network access node to perform a first type of channel access procedure in a next DL transmission burst.

  • Patent number: 11765701
    Abstract: A method and system for dynamically reconfiguring an air interface that defines a continuum of frames each divided into a sequence of transmission time intervals (TTIs). The air interface is initially configured according to a first radio access technology (RAT). The base station then detects that at least a threshold extent of wireless client devices (WCDs) served by the base station on the air interface support operation according to a second RAT. And in response, the base station reconfigures the air interface so that certain TTIs per frame instead operate on a second RAT, with the remaining TTIs per frame still operating on the first RAT. The base station then serves WCDs that support the second RAT in the TTIs now configured according to the second RAT, while continuing to serve other WCDs according to the first RAT in the remaining TTIs configured according to the first RAT.

  • Patent number: 11711249
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to the field of wireless communication technologies and provide a method for performing channel sounding, a network-side device, and a terminal. A first terminal sends a resource scheduling request to a network-side device when the first terminal starts a communication connection with a second terminal. The resource scheduling request carrying information about the second terminal requests the network-side device to allocate a transmission resource for channel sounding between the first terminal and the second terminal. The first terminal receives a sounding reference signal sent by the second terminal, and obtains information of a channel for communication between the first terminal and the second terminal. The method enables quick and effective channel sounding between terminals, thereby increasing communication efficiency between the terminals.
