  • Patent number: 11425736
    Abstract: According to certain embodiments, a method by a network node for selecting a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) interval for a wireless device in a cell served by the network node includes determining criterion for selecting the SPS interval for the wireless device. The criterion is associated with at least one of a QoS requirement of the wireless device and a utilization of resources by the network node. The network node assigns the SPS interval to the wireless device based on the criterion.

  • Publication number: 20220159490
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods for operating a network node, as well as corresponding network nodes, computer programs, computer program products, and computer-readable media. The method comprises attempting to obtain a scheduled uplink transmission from a transmitter. In response to successful decoding at the network node of the scheduled uplink transmission, it is concluded that the uplink transmission is not skipped by the transmitter. In response to unsuccessful decoding at the network node of the scheduled uplink transmission and a signal strength measurement for the attempt to obtain the scheduled uplink transmission being below a threshold, it is concluded that the uplink transmission is skipped by the transmitter. In response to unsuccessful decoding at the network node of the scheduled uplink transmission and the signal strength measurement for the attempt to obtain the scheduled uplink transmission exceeding the threshold, rescheduling of the uplink transmission is performed.

  • Publication number: 20220053530
    Abstract: A method in a User Equipment (UE) configured with Discontinuous Reception (DRX) and a method in a network node for Downlink (DL) scheduling of the UE. The UE is further configured with Semi Persistent Scheduling (SPS) which reduces the latency in Uplink (UL) transmission. The network node monitors a receipt of UL data in any of the SPS resources granted to the UE, a Wake-up grant or assignment is sent on the Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH), and a HARQ-information is sent in response to the received UL data. The Wake-up grant/assignment triggers a drx-Inactivity timer to run in the UE. While the UE is DRX active, the network node may schedule a DL data transmission and send a DL assignment and the DL data to the UE.

  • Patent number: 11006302
    Abstract: A second device that is in communication with a first device receives transmissions of the first device and detects a SILENCE period status of the first device, which corresponds to a status wherein the first device has no speech samples to be transmitted towards the second apparatus. The second device determines the type of the received transmissions, counts the number of received transmissions of a first type, and times a time interval between the last received transmission of the first type and the last received transmission of a second determined type. At reception of a transmission of the first type, the second device detects whether the first device is in the SILENCE period status on an evaluation of the counted number of transmissions of the first type and the time interval of the last received transmission of the first type and the last received transmission of the second type.

  • Publication number: 20210022147
    Abstract: A method performed by a network node for deciding whether or not to trigger short Semi Persistent Scheduling (SPS) reactivation of a short SPS activated User Equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network is provided. The network node receives (201) Uplink, UL, data from the UE over a radio resource. The radio resource comprises any one out of: an SPS resource and a dynamically granted resource. The network node determines (202) a difference of signal quality of the radio resource used for the received UL data compared to a previous signal quality calculated when last of any one out of: reactivation and reactivation of short SPS was triggered. The network node then decides (208) whether or not to trigger short SPS reactivation of the UE based on the determined difference of the signal quality.

  • Patent number: 10129779
    Abstract: A method, system and device for detecting a SILENCE period status 200A in a first device 101. The detection is performed by a second device 102 that is in communication with the first device, receiving transmissions of the first device. The SILENCE period status corresponds to a status wherein the first device has no speech samples to be transmitted towards the second apparatus. The second device receives, 413, transmissions from the first device and determines, 414A, 414B, 414C, the type of the received transmissions. The second device counts 415 the number of received transmissions of a first type, and times a time interval between the last received transmission of the first type and the last received transmission of a second determined type.

  • Patent number: 8609858
    Abstract: The present invention relates to novel spiro derivatives of parthenin prepared by the dipolar cycloaddition of various dipoles viz, benzonitrile oxides, nitrones, azides, nitrile ylide diazoalkane, nitrile imide, ozone, azomethine imides, azomethine ylides etc. with exocyclic double bond of C ring (?-methylene-?-butyrolactone). Representative compounds have been screened for their anticancer activity against different cancer cell lines. ICs0 value of these analogues varies between 4.3 ?M to 93 ?M. A mechanistic correlation of their anticancer activity has been described. The results of the cytotoxicity test of the compounds studies indicated that the ?,?-unsaturated ketonic moiety in parthenin plays an important role in the maintenance of the high level of cytotoxicity.
