  • Patent number: 11438914
    Abstract: A scheduling method and a method for establishing a schedule list for user equipment (UE) of NB-IoT are provided. The method for establishing the schedule list includes the following steps: synchronizing to a cell; receiving at least one system information parameter from the cell, the at least one system information parameter including at least one system information type and a narrowband system information block type; establishing multiple sub-lists according to the distributions of the at least one system information type and the narrowband system information block type, each element of the sub-lists representing an available subframe; assigning a sub-list code to each sub-list; calculating the number of elements for each sub-list; and establishing a list according to the at least one system information parameter, the sub-list codes, and the numbers of the elements.

  • Patent number: 11388742
    Abstract: A scheduling method for user equipment (UE) of NB-IoT is provided. The scheduling method includes: synchronizing to a cell; receiving from the cell at least one system information parameter that includes a maximum number of repetitions, periods, and offsets of NPDCCH search spaces; establishing a list according to the at least one system information parameter, the list recording multiple available subframes and each available subframe being labeled with an index; calculating a numeral of a start subframe of target NPDCCH repetitions according to a numeral of a target subframe, the period, and the offset; searching the list for a start index corresponding to the start subframe using the numeral of the start subframe; searching the list for a target index corresponding to the target subframe; determining whether the target subframe is within the interval of the target NPDCCH repetitions; and determining whether the target subframe is an NPDCCH candidate subframe.

  • Patent number: 9614582
    Abstract: Various examples of mechanisms, systems, methods, techniques and devices for dynamic rate adaptation in a vectored G.fast (G.9701) system are described. A first communication device may perform estimation of a residual noise to derive signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) loss for each carrier of one or more carriers with respect to a transmitting port of the first communication device. The residual noise may be an increased noise expected to be experienced by a second communication device when one or more other ports in a vectored group of a plurality of ports of the first communication device are switched off. The first communication device may adapt to the residual noise during time slots of one or more downstream symbol positions where the one or more other ports in the vectored group are switched off by dynamically changing bit-loading.

  • Patent number: 8514895
    Abstract: This invention discloses a bit-stuffing method for crosstalk avoidance in high-speed buses, which comprises the steps of inputting a plurality of data bit streams in parallel to a data input buffer; the data input buffer sequentially inputting data bits of the data bit streams to a bit-switching unit, and the bit-switching unit switching the data bits to generate bit-switched data; parallelly inputting the bit-switched data to a bit-stuffing encoding unit; the bit-stuffing encoding unit performing bit-stuffing encoding on the bit-switched data to generate encoded data bits and inputting the encoded data bits to an encoded data buffer; and the encoded data buffer outputting the encoded data to a high-speed bus. The encoded data bits passed through the high-speed bus are decoded using a bit-removing method to recover the data bit streams.
