Publication number: 20240155411Abstract: A method, a system, and a computer program product for selecting fronthaul links in a wireless communication system. One or more link delays are determined. The link delays are associated with one or more communication links in the plurality of communication links communicatively coupling a first communication device and a second communication device. Using the determined link delays, a communication link transmission priority of the communication links for transmission of one or more data packets is determined. A listing of prioritized communication links is generated. At least one communication link in the prioritized communication links is selected for transmission of data packets between the first and second communication devices. Using the selected communication link, the data packets are transmitted between the first and second communication devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2024Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: Altiostar Networks, Inc.Inventors: M Ramana Reddy, Sridhar Bhaskaran

Patent number: 11616753Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for acquisition of an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)/IPv6 neighbour cache at a user plane function (UPF) entity without performing deep packet inspection for every packet that traverses a network. The ARP broadcast/Internet Control Message Protocol version 6 (ICMPv6) neighbour solicitation multicast from any Ethernet client (a user equipment (UE) or clients behind the UE or clients in a data network (DN)) is responded to by the UPF entity itself, by looking up the ARP/IPv6 Neighbour cache built in the UPF entity, irrespective of whether the UPF entity acts as the core Ethernet switch or whether the core Ethernet switch is in the DN. The solution is simplified to always intercept ARP at the UPF entity and respond to it based on a local ARP/IPv6 Neighbour cache.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2021Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: HUAWEI TECHNOLOGIES CO., LTD.Inventors: Sridhar Bhaskaran, Marco Spini, Fenqin Zhu

Patent number: 10841745Abstract: An example method is provided in one example embodiment and includes receiving, by a user equipment device, a list including at least one location identifier associated with an area for location reporting and an area identifier identifying the area for location reporting. The method further includes receiving a location identifier broadcast by a wireless network element, and determining whether the broadcast location identifier matches the at least one location identifier associated with the area for location reporting. The method further includes sending a location reporting message by the user equipment device to a first network node when it is determined that the broadcast location identifier matches the at least one location identifier associated with the area for location reporting. The location reporting message is indicative of the user equipment device either entering or exiting the area for location reporting.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2018Date of Patent: November 17, 2020Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Nirav Salot, Sebastian Speicher, Aeneas Sean Dodd-Noble, Sridhar Bhaskaran

Patent number: 10470218Abstract: An example method is provided in one example embodiment and may include determining that a user equipment (UE) is approximately stationary for a threshold period of time within a particular geographic area based, at least in part, on a radio access network (RAN) node to which the UE is attached; notifying the UE that the UE has been associated with the particular geographic area; and transitioning the UE into an idle mode from an active mode, wherein the transitioning is performed without notifying a core network that the UE has transitioned to the idle mode. Determining that the UE is approximately stationary can include monitoring mobility signaling from the UE and comparing an amount of time that the UE has been attached to the RAN node with a threshold period of time. The core network can be notified when the UE moves out of the particular geographic area.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2016Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Nirav Salot, Sridhar Bhaskaran, Sebastian Speicher, Maulik Vijay Vaidya
