Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed that provide in-service traffic and/or resource migration between processing units in a communications network. An example method includes one or more processing units communicating with at least one processing unit of a plurality of processing units, where the communicating corresponds to a plurality of resources and resource requirements of the plurality of processing units. The one or more processing units evaluate resource utilization and projected traffic of a subset of the plurality of processing units. The one or more processing units determine, based on the resource requirements, to migrate one or more selected interdependent resources for a service from one or more processing units to one or more receiving processing units of the plurality of processing units.

Abstract: An audio mixer for mixing audio signals from a plurality of participants, including audio signals of different sample rates; the audio mixer comprising: a plurality of mixing arrangements, each mixing arrangement for a given one of said sample rates; each mixing arrangement comprising: a pre-mixer configured to mix audio signals having the given sample rate; one or more resamplers, each resampler configured to convert pre-mixed audio signals from other mixing arrangements into a signal of the given sample rate; and a post-mixer configured to mix the output of the pre-mixer with the output of each resampler to produce an output at the given sample rate; the audio mixer further comprising a subtractor configured to subtract the participant's input audio signal from the post-mixed output.

Abstract: A compact hybrid comprises reactive power-dividers and signal paths coupling the reactive power-dividers to provide a predetermined phase difference therebetween. The signal paths may have 90-degree bends therein to reduce a distance between adjacent reactive power-dividers to less than a physical distance associated with the predetermined phase difference in a stripline medium. The hybrid may be a 180-degree hybrid and may be part of RF circuitry of a wireless communication device to combine signals from a pair of antennas and to provide a sum signal and a difference signal. The RF circuitry may also comprise switching circuitry to select between the sum signal and the difference signal based on a signal quality of the sum and difference signals.
