Publication number: 20200029373Abstract: A method of communicating using proximity services (ProSe) is disclosed. A base station receives at least one aggregate maximum bit rate (AMBR) parameter from a network entity. The at least one AMBR parameter comprises a maximum bit rate that a first wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) can use for data sent on one or more ProSe bearers. The base station receives a request from the first WTRU to establish the one or more ProSe bearers with a second WTRU. The request comprises priority information of the one or more ProSe bearers determined by the first WTRU. The base station sends an indication to the first WTRU to establish a ProSe communication over the one or more ProSe bearers based on at least the AMBR parameter and the priority information of the one or more ProSe bearers.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2019Publication date: January 23, 2020Applicant: INTERDIGITAL PATENT HOLDINGS, INC.Inventors: Mahmoud Watfa, Guanzhou Wang, Saad Ahmad, Amir Helmy, Loic Canonne-Velasquez, Dimitrios Karampatsis, Samian Kaur, Ulises Olvera-Hernandez

Publication number: 20190327622Abstract: A cellular communications network may be configured to leverage a millimeter wave (mmW) mesh network. Base stations may be configured to operate as mmW base stations (mBs). Such base stations may be configured to participate in the mmW mesh network and to access the cellular communications network (e.g., via cellular access links). A network device of the cellular communications network (e.g., an eNB) may operate as a control entity with respect to one or more mBs. Such a network device may govern mesh backhaul routing with respect to the cellular communications network and the mmW mesh network. Such a network device may configure the mmW mesh network, for example by performing a process to join a new mB to the mmW mesh network. A WTRU may send and receive control information via a cellular access link and may send and receive data via the mmW mesh network.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2019Publication date: October 24, 2019Applicant: IDAC Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Onur Sahin, Samian Kaur, Philip J.

Publication number: 20190294167Abstract: Systems and methods described herein determine an optimal lane trajectory and route for an autonomous vehicle under changing road conditions and forecast autonomous car performance along a route. A road's profile is analyzed to determine a safe lateral lane position. In ice or snow, a vehicle may follow ruts made by previous vehicles, even if following such ruts does not place a vehicle in a lane's center. In warmer weather, a vehicle may drive outside the ruts to avoid risks of aquaplaning. Dynamic road conditions and AV support along a route are used to maximize AV use and to forecast AV performance. A vehicle control system calculates sensor limitations and uses these sensor limitations when calculating which route to select.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2017Publication date: September 26, 2019Inventors: Matti Kutila, Mikko Tarkiainen, Pertti Peussa, Ari Virtanen, Samian Kaur

Publication number: 20190274183Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a WTRU to operate using multiple schedulers. The WTRU may exchange data with the network over more than one data path, such that each data path may use a radio interface connected to a different network node and each node may be associated with an independent scheduler. For example, a WTRU may establish a RRC connection between the WTRU and a network. The RRC connection may establish a first radio interface between the WTRU and a first serving site of the network and a second radio interface between the WTRU and a second serving site of the network. The RRC connection may be established between the WTRU and the MeNB and a control function may be established between the WTRU and the SCeNB. The WTRU may receive data from the network over the first radio interface or the second radio interface.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2019Publication date: September 5, 2019Inventors: Ghyslain Pelletier, Paul Marinier, Diana Pani, Stephen E.

Base stations may be configured to operate as mmW base stations (tnBs). Such base stations may be configured to participate in the mmW mesh network and to access the cellular communications network (e.g., via cellular access links).

Publication number: 20190261209Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to perform rate adaptation in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). The WTRU may receive an encoded data stream, which may be encoded according to a Dynamic Adaptive HTTP Streaming (DASH) standard. The WTRU may request and/or receive the data stream from a content server. The WTRU may monitor and/or receive a cross-layer parameter, such as a physical layer parameter, a RRC layer parameter, and/or a MAC layer parameter (e.g., a CQI, a PRB allocation, a MRM, or the like). The WTRU may perform rate adaption based on the cross-layer parameter. For example, the WTRU may set the CE bit of an Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) field based on the cross-layer parameter. The WTRU may determine to request the data stream encoded at a different rate based on the cross-layer parameter, the CE bit, and/or a prediction based on the cross-layer parameter.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2019Publication date: August 22, 2019Applicant: VID SCALE, INC.Inventors: Anantharaman Balasubramanian, Gregory S.

Patent number: 10368375Abstract: Methods and devices are described for communication using proximity services (ProSe). An aggregate maximum bit rate parameter (AMBR) may limit a data rate that may be transmitted by one or more ProSe bearers. A wireless transmit-receive unit (WTRU) may request authorization from the network prior to establishing a ProSe bearer specifying a required quality of service (QoS) or other requirements. Each ProSe bearer may have a corresponding EPS bearer to support service continuity. Packets may be evaluated by a WTRU first using a ProSe check to determine if the packet is destined for a ProSe bearer and then using a packet filter or filters in order of precedence. Embodiments may include methods of initiation communication after discovery. Embodiments may include methods of maintaining session continuity when traffic is switched between an evolved packet system (EPS) bearer and a ProSe bearer.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2015Date of Patent: July 30, 2019Assignee: INTERDIGITAL PATENT HOLDINGS, INC.Inventors: Mahmoud Watfa, Guanzhou Wang, Saad Ahmad, Amir Helmy, Loic Canonne-Velasquez, Dimitrios Karampatsis, Samian Kaur, Ulises Olvera-Hernandez

Patent number: 10321347Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described. A long term evolution (LTE) base station includes a processor and a transceiver, which transmit first LTE data to a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) using LTE frequencies. The LTE data is at a time defined by LTE transmission time interval (TTI) boundaries. The processor maps an LTE class of second LTE data to an access class associated with IEEE 802.11e access and transmits the second LTE data to the WTRU using an IEEE 802.11 associated frequency. A transmission time of the second LTE data is based on an LTE TTI boundary after sensing that an IEEE 802.11 associated frequency is not busy.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2017Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: InterDigital Patent Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Ravikumar V.
