Patent number: 11689442Abstract: A particular fat tree network node stores default routing information indicating that the particular fat tree network node can reach a plurality of parent fat tree network nodes of the particular fat tree network node. The particular fat tree network node obtains, from a first parent fat tree network node of the plurality of parent fat tree network nodes, a negative disaggregation advertisement indicating that the first parent fat tree network node cannot reach a specific destination. The particular fat tree network node determines whether the first parent fat tree network node is the only parent fat tree network node of the plurality of parent fat tree network nodes that cannot reach the specific destination. If so, the particular fat tree network node installs supplemental routing information indicating that every parent fat tree network node except the first parent fat tree network node can reach the specific destination.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: CISCO TECHNOLOGY, INC.Inventors: Pascal Thubert, Eric Levy-Abegnoli, Jakob Heitz

Patent number: 11683664Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may transmit a downlink control information (DCI) message to one or more user equipments (UEs) scheduling a multicast data message in a multicast downlink shared channel, the DCI message indicating a feedback process identifier (ID) for the multicast data message. The base station may transmit an additional DCI message to a UE scheduling a retransmission of the multicast data message in a unicast downlink shared channel and indicating a feedback process ID for the retransmission of the multicast data message. The feedback process ID for the retransmission may be the same as, or different from, the initial transmission of the multicast data message. The UE may transmit feedback for the multicast data message based on receiving the initial transmission of the multicast data or the retransmission of the multicast data and the feedback process IDs.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2021Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Kazuki Takeda, Alberto Rico Alvarino, Le Liu
