Abstract: Authenticator plugin interface for an enterprise virtualization portal is provided. An example method for evaluating a portal access request may comprise: receiving, by a virtualization management platform, a request initiated by a requestor for access to an enterprise virtualization portal associated with the virtualization management platform, the request comprising a login credential; transmitting, to a first authentication system, a first authentication query comprising an identifier of a first data type, and a first value of the first data type, wherein the first value is derived from the login credential; receiving a first response message comprising an identifier of a second data type, and an authentication response of the second data type; and responsive to evaluating the authentication response, granting the requestor access to the enterprise virtualization portal.

Abstract: A method, telecommunication apparatus, and electronic device for detecting a status of a radio link are disclosed. A transceiver 302 may maintain a radio link with a network base station 104. A processor 304 may map channel state information to a synchronization status associated with the radio link based on the received signal and determine the synchronization status via a block error rate estimate in the radio link based on the channel state information.

Abstract: A method, telecommunication apparatus, and electronic device detect a status of a radio link. A transceiver 302 may receive a reference signal transmitted from a base station 104. A processor 304 may assume a transmission of a codeword of a first payload type from the base station and may determine a synchronization status based on the received reference signal and based on the assumed transmission of the codeword of the first payload type from the base station.

Abstract: A method, a network base station, and a user communication device for transmitting data on an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing carrier are disclosed. An antenna array may transmit a signal decodable by a legacy user communication device designed for compatibility with a legacy set of transmission antennas. A processor 210 may encode a subframe of the signal with a legacy set of common reference symbols and a supplemental set of common reference symbols referring to the antenna array.
