The out-of-order traffic may comprise selective out-of-order delivery OOD or per-packet OOD delivery. Additional examples, features and other techniques are also described herein.

Abstract: The techniques described herein may include a device, comprising: a memory; and one or more processors configured to, when executing instructions stored in the memory, cause the device to: communicate, via a wireless communication network, information as in-order traffic using an in-order radio link control (RLC) entity; and communicate, via the wireless communication network, information as out-of-order traffic using an out-of-order RLC entity. The in-order traffic and the out-of-order traffic may be communicated using the same data radio bearer (DRB). The out-of-order traffic may include selective out-of-order delivery (OOD) or per-packet OOD. Additional examples, features and other techniques are also described herein.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and circuitries are provided for using an application Layer 2 buffer for reordering out of sequence (OOS) packets when possible to reduce an amount of memory allocated to a baseband (BB) Layer 2 (L2) buffer. In one example, a baseband circuitry of a user equipment (UE), includes BB memory, configured as a BB L2 buffer and one or more BB processors. The BB processors are configured to receive an OOS packet from a physical layer; and in response to an APP L2 buffer status indicating at least a first amount of memory is available, send the OOS packet to APP circuitry for storing in an APP L2 buffer.

Abstract: In an example method, a system obtains a data packet for processing, determines a hash value representing the data packet, and selects a processor core from among a plurality of processor cores for processing the data packet. The processor core is selected by determining, based on the hash value, that the hash value corresponds to a first processor core from among the plurality of processor cores, and determining, based on a plurality of data structures stored by the load balancing system, whether to select the first processor core or a second processor core from among the plurality of processor cores for processing the data packet. Further, the system causes the selected processor core to process the data packet.
