  • Patent number: 11804982
    Abstract: This application provides a method for transmitting data on a ring network. The ring network includes two adjacent FlexE cross-connection rings, each FlexE cross-connection ring includes at least three nodes, the two FlexE cross-connection rings have at least one common node, the common node carries a cross-ring end-to-end working path, and each of the two FlexE cross-connection rings includes one ring-shaped protection path. Because there is a protection path between any two adjacent nodes in the two FlexE cross-connection rings, if a link fault occurs in the common node, a node adjacent to the common node may transmit data from one FlexE cross-connection ring to another FlexE cross-connection ring by using the ring-shaped protection path. Therefore, reliability of the ring network including the at least two FlexE cross-connection rings is improved.

In one example method, an access network device of a first network determines to use an access network device of a second network to perform data splitting for data of UE. Then, the access network device of the first network sends first splitting configuration information to the UE and sends second splitting configuration information to the access network device of the second network. The first splitting configuration information is used to notify the UE that the access network device of the second network is to split to-be-split data of the UE. The second splitting configuration information is used to instruct the access network device of the second network to split the to-be-split data of the UE.

  • Patent number: 11804877
    Abstract: This document describes methods, devices, systems, and means for enhanced beam searching for an active coordination set. A user equipment (110) receives an active-coordination-set beam-sweep (602) including multiple time slots (610), each of the multiple time slots including one or more candidate beams. The user equipment (110) determines a respective link-quality metric for each of the received one or more candidate beams in each of the time slots. Based on the link-quality metrics, the user equipment (110) selects the one or more candidate beams in a time slot (610) to use for wireless communication. The user equipment (110) transmits a beam-acquired indication (620) at a first time offset (604) after the time slot (610) in which the selected one or more candidate beams are received, the transmitting directing the base stations (120) to use the selected one or more candidate beams for the wireless communication.

  • Patent number: 11800406
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices can be used to perform service-aware utilization of shared wireless resources. In various instances, a quality metric (e.g., a Bit Error Rate (BER)) of a shared wireless resource is determined. Requested services can be provided based at least partly on the quality metric and the type of services being requested. For example, when the quality metric exceeds a threshold and the requested services are for Quality of Service (QoS)-sensitive services (e.g., Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR) services), the services can be provided at least partially via a licensed wireless resource. However, when the quality metric does not exceed the threshold, and/or the requested services are for non-QoS-sensitive services (e.g., non-GBR services), the services can be provided via the shared wireless resource.
