Abstract: A base station uses a common link layer controller for multiple physical attachment points to facilitate concurrent wireless connections between different sector physical attachment points and a wireless terminal using the same link layer link. A wireless terminal maintains multiple simultaneous wireless connections for the same link layer link. A packet of user data is fragmented into a plurality of grouping of MAC frames, thus a packet portion can be communicated over a connection. A single packet is sometimes communicated with different portions conveyed over different wireless connections. Automatic repeat request, using the common link layer controller, allows for retransmission of a packet portion over a different connection than it was initially transmitted over. A wireless terminal sends connection request messages including lists of link layer identifiers associated with the wireless terminal. A base station responds with an indication of whether logical link state was already present.

Abstract: In one example, a transform component of a system receives a first plurality of image parts in a first domain that comprise an initial size. A transform component of the system transforms the first plurality of image parts to obtain a second plurality of image parts in a second domain different from the first domain. A transform component of the system transforms a plurality of image parts based on the second plurality of image parts to obtain a resultant plurality of image parts in the first domain that comprise a resultant size different from the initial size. In a further example, a transform component of a system applies sparse matrix multiplication to each of first and second image parts.
