  • Patent number: 12369108
    Abstract: A method performed by a wireless device (130) for handling radio frequency bands. The wireless device (130) operates in a communications network (10). The wireless device (130) sends (203) an indication to a network node (110) operating in the 5 communications network (10). The indication indicates a first radio frequency band the wireless device (130) is configured with to scan for discovery and selection of a cell operating in the communications network (10). The wireless device (130) then receives (204) another indication from the network node (110). The another indication comprises a first instruction to configure the wireless device (130) to use a second radio frequency 10 band to scan for cell discovery and selection. The sending (203) and the receiving (204) are performed using an internet protocol.

  • Patent number: 12143355
    Abstract: A method performed by a node (111) supporting operation on a Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP), but incapable of supporting operation on a Domain Name System (DNS) protocol. The node (111) encodes (402) a DNS query into a first message (601, 701), which has a format supported by the CoAP. The DNS query is mapped to the CoAP format of the first message (601, 701) based on a mapping scheme. The node (111) then initiates sending (403) the first message (601, 701) to another node (112) operating in the communications network (100). The another node (112) supports operation on the CoAP and on the DNS protocol. The node (111) finally receives (404) a second message (620, 706) from the another node (112), which has the format supported by the CoAP. The second message (620, 706) comprises the DNS response to the sent DNS query. The DNS response is mapped to the CoAP format of the second message (620, 706) based on the mapping scheme.

  • Publication number: 20240031276
    Abstract: Methods of a Lightweight Machine to Machine (LwM2M) device and of an LwM2M managing device of controlling transmission of data in a network. A method of an LwM2M device is provided of for controlling transmission of data in a network includes sending a message having data towards an intended receiver. The message includes information indicating a maximum number of hops allowed for the message, thereby allowing a node in the network receiving the message at each hop to update a hop counter and further to discontinue forwarding of the message towards the intended receiver when the hop counter indicates that the maximum number of hops has been reached. The method includes receiving, from the node, an indication that the hop counter has reached the maximum number of hops and sending, to an LwM2M managing device, information indicating that the hop counter has reached the maximum number of hops.

  • Patent number: 11765053
    Abstract: An IoT electronic device executes services distributed by an IoT service orchestration device. A Lightweight Machine-to-Machine (LwM2M) request message is received. The LwM2M request message contains a LwM2M object identifying hardware resources of the IoT electronic device for which characteristics are requested. A LwM2M command is executed that accesses a LwM2M interface identified based on content of the LwM2M object to determine the characteristics of the hardware resources of the IoT electronic device which are identified by the LwM2M object. A response message contains information identifying the characteristics of the hardware resources of the IoT electronic device. The response message is communicated toward the IoT service orchestrator device. A service image is received for execution which is adapted by the IoT service orchestrator device, responsive to the information in the response message identifying the characteristics of the hardware resources of the IoT electronic device.
