Abstract: A cache management subsystem (CMS) for a network having network gateways logically organized into network gateway (NG) subsets, each NG subset comprising redundant network gateways and each network gateway comprising a local cache configured to store cache entries corresponding to information requests from network users. The subsystem includes (i) a cache manager configured to synchronize certain cache entries between the network gateways of an NG subset and (ii) a CMS cache configured to store, for the NG subset, other cache entries that are not synchronized between the network gateways of the NG subset. In certain implementations, the cache manager synchronizes within NG subsets recent cache entries having relatively frequent hits and the CMS cache stores recent cache entries having relatively infrequent hits, thereby increasing efficiencies if and when a redundant network gateway handles requests for a failed network gateway.

Abstract: A method and system for identifying and mitigating interference caused by a rogue User Equipment (UE) in a Light Fidelity (Li-Fi) communication network is disclosed. The method includes detecting interference caused by the rogue UE to at least one UE from a set of UEs associated with a Li-Fi access point in the Li-Fi communication network. The method further includes assigning a unique first transmission channel to each of the at least one UE in response to detecting the interference. The unique first transmission channel assigned to each of the at least one UE is distinguishable from a second transmission channel associated with the rogue UE. The method further includes scheduling data transmission from each of the at least one UE to the Li-Fi access point based on the associated unique first transmission channel.

Abstract: A method and system for managing interference between a set of Light Fidelity (Li-Fi) access points is disclosed. The method includes receiving a plurality of uplink data frames. Each of the plurality of uplink data frames includes a response that includes one of an Acknowledgement (ACK) and a Negative Acknowledgment (NACK) for the associated downlink test frame and a Channel Quality Indication (CQI) for the associated Li-Fi access point.

The method may further include dynamically modifying, by the first OCC device, the first transmission parameter based on the first reception parameter in order to maximize throughput of OCC.
