  • Patent number: 12074741
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method to demodulate messages according to two different modulation schemes in 5G and 6G, and thereby identifying which message elements are likely faulted. The two modulation schemes are QAM in which the signal is a sum of two orthogonal amplitude-modulated “branch” signals, and classical amplitude-phase modulation in which each message element's raw signal is both amplitude and phase modulated. The two schemes have similar information density but different noise sensitivities. Therefore, a receiver can compare the demodulated message using one modulation scheme to the same message demodulated according to the other modulation scheme, and flag any message elements that demodulate differently. In addition, one modulation scheme may be more effective than the other depending on conditions.

  • Patent number: 12074778
    Abstract: In a bandwidth estimation device, a measurement unit measures a measurement time from reception by a receiver of a first packet of a packet train including a plurality of packets that are sequentially transmitted from a transmitter via a communication line to reception by the receiver of a last packet of the packet train, An estimation validity determination unit compares the measurement time with a threshold time predefined based on performance of the receiver or characteristics of the communication line to determine whether a valid estimate of an available bandwidth of the communication line can be made. In response to the estimation validity determination unit determining that a valid estimate of the available bandwidth can be made, an estimation unit estimates the available bandwidth of the communication line based on an amount of data in the packet train and the measurement time.

  • Patent number: 12074781
    Abstract: A machine selects a candidate data service to be tested for service quality. The machine performs a first-phase test of the candidate data service by providing predetermined input data to the candidate data service and measuring a first quality metric that results. The machine may determine that the candidate data service is to undergo the second-phase test based on the first quality metric, and the machine may accordingly perform the second-phase test of the candidate data service. The second-phase test may include: adding the candidate data service to a pool of five data services processing undetermined input data; routing a portion of the undetermined input data to the candidate data service; and measuring a second quality metric resultant from the candidate data service processing the routed portion. Based on the second quality metric, the machine may record whether the candidate data service is to remain in the pool.

  • Patent number: 12074782
    Abstract: A system and a method for eliminating data loss in a virtually aggregated network are described. A first network device may identify inactivity of a central network device present in a communication network. The central network device is responsible for distributing routing information between a plurality of network devices including the first network device. The first network device delays network route calculations until a second network device is elected from the plurality of network devices to perform functions of the central network device. The second network device generates link state information related to the plurality of network devices, and shares the link state information with the plurality of network devices. Upon receiving the link state information, the plurality of network device may resume the route calculations.

  • Patent number: 12074784
    Abstract: An example branch gateway (BG) of a local area network (LAN) includes processing circuitry and a memory. The memory includes instructions that cause the BG to determine that a network traffic load of the BG is greater than that of another BG. The instructions further cause the BG to determine that a first network traffic load skew between the BG and the other BG is greater than a first threshold. The instructions further cause the BG to select a first virtual local area network (VLAN) of a set of VLANs of the LAN, wherein network traffic of client devices of the first VLAN is routed through the BG based on a master role of the first VLAN being assigned to the BG. The instructions further cause the BG to transmit a message to the other BG that assigns the master role of the first VLAN to the other BG.

  • Patent number: 12074785
    Abstract: A first logical link path and a second logical link path between two endpoints are identified. The first logical link path and the second logical link path comprise an OSI layer 5 link path from source to destination including intermediate network devices. The first logical link path and the second logical link paths include at least a different intermediate network device. A communications session is established between the two endpoints. Data packets for the communications session are communicated using the first logical link path. A metric indicative of a time of receipt of packets on the first logical link path is determined. Based on the metric, presence of a network condition at the communications network that is indicative of a performance degradation of the first logical link path is determined. In response, data packets for the communications session are communicated on the second logical link path.
