Patent number: 11943022Abstract: Systems and methods of beamforming and improving mmWave communications for drones are described. Multiple RF chains are used to adapt the main beam to track changes without the use of pilot signals. To reduce interference, interfering signal power is eliminated by optimizing a non-Gaussian measure to extract the interferers. The AoA of signals from a target drone on neighbouring drones and location of the neighbouring drones and base stations are used to independently corroborate the location reported by the target drone. The base station provides additional synchronization signals below 6 GHz and restricts the search/measurement space in the vertical direction. The inherent sparse structure above 6 GHz is exploited by applying different beamformers on a sounding signal and estimating the AoA and impulse response. Variations of fully digital and hybrid beamforming architectures for multi-cell DL sync and CRS measurement are described.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2019Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Venkatesan Nallampatti Ekambaram, Yang-Seok Choi, Junyoung Nam, Feng Xue, Shu-ping Yeh, Hosein Nikopour, Shilpa Talwar, Jan Schreck, Nageen Himayat, Sagar Dhakal

Patent number: 11805101Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel secure method for suppressing address discovery messaging. In some embodiments, the method receives an address discovery record that provides a network address associated with a machine connected to a network. The method then identifies a set of one or more rules for evaluating the received address discovery record to determine whether the address discovery record or its provided network address should be distributed to one or more hosts and/or devices associated with the network. The method then processes the set of rules to determine whether the received address discovery record violates a rule in the set of rules so as to prevent the distribution of its provided network address. When the address discovery record violates a rule, the method discards it in some embodiments.Type: GrantFiled: April 6, 2021Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: VMWARE, INC.Inventors: Li Sun, Parasuramji Rajendran, Yang Ping, Jianjun Shen

Publication number: 20230168917Abstract: Some embodiments provide novel methods for performing services for machines operating in one or more datacenters. For instance, for a group of related guest machines (e.g., a group of tenant machines), some embodiments define two different forwarding planes: (1) a guest forwarding plane and (2) a service forwarding plane. The guest forwarding plane connects to the machines in the group and performs L2 and/or L3 forwarding for these machines. The service forwarding plane (1) connects to the service nodes that perform services on data messages sent to and from these machines, and (2) forwards these data messages to the service nodes. In some embodiments, the guest machines do not connect directly with the service forwarding plane. For instance, in some embodiments, each forwarding plane connects to a machine or service node through a port that receives data messages from, or supplies data messages to, the machine or service node.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2023Publication date: June 1, 2023Inventors: Fenil Kavathia, Anuprem Chalvadi, Yang Ping, Akhila Naveen, Yong Feng, Kantesh Mundaragi, Rahul Mishra, Pierluigi Rolando, Jayant Jain, Raju Koganty

Patent number: 11526372Abstract: Certain embodiments described herein are generally directed to handling a hypervisor restart event in a distributed network system. Embodiments include receiving, by a central controller, a session identifier from a first hypervisor. Embodiments further include comparing, by the central controller, the session identifier to a stored session identifier associated with the first hypervisor. Embodiments further include determining, by the central controller based on the session identifier not matching the stored session identifier associated with the first hypervisor, that the first hypervisor has restarted. Embodiments further include updating, by the central controller, the stored session identifier associated with the first hypervisor to match the session identifier. Embodiments further include identifying, by the central controller, a second hypervisor that is associated with the first hypervisor.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2020Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: NICIRA, INC.Inventors: Bin Qian, Amit Chopra, Dexiang Wang, Chen Li, Feng Pan, Jianjun Shen, Aayush Saxena, Yang Ping

Patent number: 11474930Abstract: Example methods and systems for software bug reproduction. One example method may comprise obtaining log information associated with multiple transactions processed by a control-plane node to configure a set of data-plane nodes and transform an initial network state to a first network state; and configuring a replay environment that is initialized to the initial network state, and includes a mock control-plane node and a set of mock data-plane nodes. The method may also comprise, based on the log information, replaying the multiple transactions using the mock control-plane node to configure the set of mock data-plane nodes and transform the replay environment from the initial network state to a second network state. Based on a comparison between the first network state and the second network state, a determination may be made as to whether a software bug is successfully reproduced in the replay environment.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2019Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: VMWARE, INC.Inventors: Wei Guo, Deepika Rajendra Kalani, Yuanjun Yao, Mihir Patil, Aravinda Kidambi Srinivasan, Yang Ping
