  • Patent number: 11737153
    Abstract: A wireless backhaul link is established via a low-band frequency division duplex (FDD) carrier between an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node and an IAB donor node or between the IAB node and another IAB node that is linked to the IAB donor node, in which the IAB donor node provides a backhaul connection to a core network of a wireless carrier network. Further, one or more corresponding wireless backhaul links are established between the IAB node and one or more additional IAB nodes via one or more corresponding low-band FDD carriers. When a user device is determined to be in range of the IAB node for an establishment of a wireless access link via a mid-band FDD carrier or a time division duplex (TDD) carrier, the wireless access link is established between the IAB node and the user device via the mid-band FDD carrier or the TDD carrier.

  • Publication number: 20230254924
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices can be utilized to aggregate downlink millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency resources based on various conditions. In an example method, a connection request for downlink data is received from a user equipment (UE). The example method includes determining that a first congestion level of a first mmWave downlink channel is below a first threshold and determining that a second congestion level of a second mmWave downlink channel is below a second threshold. An activation request is transmitted to the UE. The activation request instructs the UE to activate a first antenna corresponding to the first mmWave downlink channel and to activate a second antenna corresponding to the second mmWave downlink channel. At least a portion of the downlink data is transmitted to the UE over the first mmWave downlink channel and the second mmWave downlink channel.

  • Patent number: 11690100
    Abstract: This disclosure is directed to allocation of one or more radio bands to a user equipment (UE) for establishing a radio link with a radio node (e.g., eNodeB or gNodeB). The radio bands may include a shared band, such as citizens band radio service (CBRS), a primary licensed band, such as the B66 band, and/or an unlicensed band, such as B46 band. A radio communications system may consider a variety of parameters associated with the distance of a UE from a radio node, signal strength of a signal from the UE, the services requested by the UE, and/or spectral availability of the each of the radio bands to determine which radio band(s) to allocate to the UE. In some cases, the radio band allocated to a UE may be dynamically changed by the radio communications system as conditions related to the UE and/or the mobile network change.

  • Publication number: 20230185766
    Abstract: Technologies for detecting changes in a namespace using namespace enumeration endpoint response payloads are disclosed. A namespace is enumerated at a first time by retrieving response payloads containing metadata describing each location in the namespace from a namespace enumeration endpoint. Signatures are generated based on the response payloads and stored. To determine if changes were made to the namespace between the first time and a subsequent second time, metadata is retrieved from the namespace enumeration endpoint for the namespace at the second time and signatures are generated. Signatures generated at the first time are then compared to the signatures generated at the second time. If the signatures are different, the items in the location in the namespace changed between the first time and the second time. Changes occurring in a location of the namespace can then be identified based on the metadata obtained at the first and second times.
