  • Patent number: 11019534
    Abstract: A method for managing radio resources in a multiple radio access technology (multi-RAT) wireless communication network, which includes one or more orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA)-based base stations that implement different radio access technologies (RATs), includes the step of creating, for each of a plurality of mobile terminals, an incoming queue where data destined to the respective mobile terminal is buffered. Queue information of each mobile terminal is collected and provided to the multi-RAT wireless communication network. System constraints of the multi-RAT wireless communication network are defined and network constraint information is provided.

  • Patent number: 10979319
    Abstract: A method provides operating information for a network having a set of computing entities (CPE) for performing functions on data; a set of connecting entities (CNE) for connecting users and performing functions on data; and a set of forwarding entities (SFE) for forwarding data between the CPE and CNE. CNE are assigned to the CPE. At least part of the functions performed by the CNE are split and offloaded to the assigned CPE for performing the part of functions. The method includes: determining: a) network information, including network topology information and network capability information of the network, b) entity location information, including network locations of the entities, and c) function splitting information, including possible configurable functions which can be split; and, based on the determined information of a)-c), jointly optimizing: routing between the network entities, assignments of the CNE to the CPE, and function splits.

  • Publication number: 20200398484
    Abstract: An example of a method for three-dimensional (3D) printing includes applying a build material composition to form a build material layer. The build material composition includes a glass core coated with a polyamide material. Based on a 3D object model, a fusing agent is selectively applied on a portion of the build material composition, and a detailing agent is selectively applied on another portion of the build material composition. The build material composition is exposed to radiation to fuse the portion to form a layer of a 3D part.

  • Publication number: 20200322367
    Abstract: A method for anomaly detection and troubleshooting in a network includes parsing a network service descriptor (NSD) describing a network service (NS) to be deployed in the network. Monitoring data including time series of service-level metrics and resource-level metrics of network functions (NFs) of the NS are received from different domains of the network. Representations of the time series from the different domains are learned with a common dimensionality. An NS signature of the NS is computed as a cross-correlation matrix comprising cross-correlations between the service-level metrics and the resource-level metrics of the NFs. Embeddings of the NS signature are learned using a model and determining a reconstruction error of the model. It is determined whether the NS is anomalous based on the reconstruction error of the model. The NS is identified as a target for the troubleshooting in a case that the NS was determined to be anomalous.

  • Publication number: 20200296741
    Abstract: A radio access network includes a processing system and one or more radio access points configured to broadcast over a radio band including one or more radio channels. Contextual data is acquired which is representative of at least one of: (i) a quality of the radio band and (ii) a quantity of data demanded by user equipment in communication with the one or more radio access points over the radio band. A compute policy and a radio policy are generated based on the acquired contextual data. Data transmissions for processing are assigned to computing resources of the processing system based on the compute policy. Data are scheduled for transmission over the radio band based on the radio policy. A modulation and coding scheme for the scheduled data transmissions is selected based on the radio policy.

  • Patent number: 10667258
    Abstract: A method for operating a plurality of different wireless networks operating at least in part in overlapping frequency bands includes monitoring, by a first wireless transmitter, activity in the overlapping frequency bands. The first wireless transmitter determines whether a channel in the overlapping frequency bands is idle for a predefined time period. Based on the channel being idle for the predefined time period, it is determined that the first wireless transmitter has a transmission opportunity on the channel. The first wireless transmitter measures an amount of time until a next frame boundary on the channel and, based on the amount of time until the next frame boundary being below a threshold, reserves the channel for a fixed duration of time. Based on the amount of time until the next frame boundary being above the threshold, the first wireless transmitter skips the transmission opportunity on the channel.

  • Patent number: 10638514
    Abstract: A method for operating a plurality of wireless networks includes blocking a channel in a second wireless network (SWN) by a first wireless network station (FWN-S) connected to a first wireless network (FWN) and the SWN within an overlapping frequency band. A time for performing blocking after a busy channel is smaller than a predetermined time period. The method further includes indicating part of a total airtime the channel in the SWN will be occupied by the first FWN-S for transmission. The total airtime is computed as a sum of time slots used for successful transmission, their number being computed such that the transmission performance of the SWN is not degraded more than the level of transmission performance is degraded if the first FWN-S would be operating for transmission within the SWN only.
