Assembly Or Disassembly Of Messages Having Address Headers Patents (Class 370/474)
  • Patent number: 12149397
    Abstract: Message reliability is a key requirement of 5G/6G communications. In many challenging network environments, two successive retransmissions of a message can both be corrupted, greatly reducing reliability. Therefore, methods are disclosed for identifying faulted message elements according to a metric that includes the waveform or SNR of the message element, its modulation quality, and a consistency check between the received versions. The receiver can then assemble a merged message version by selecting the higher quality version of each message element from the two (or more) corrupted versions, and thereby avoid requesting yet another retransmission. In addition, the receiver can monitor the background level and, if it is above a predetermined limit, can request that the receiver store the message for a predetermined time, or until the background level subsides below the limit.

  • Patent number: 12075014
    Abstract: According to implementations of the subject matter described herein, there is provided a solution for data embedding and data extraction in images. To perform data embedding, a target region for data embedding is determined from a source image, such as a chart image. Target data to be embedded is converted into a sequence of logical values represented in a predetermined format. Based on the sequence of logical values, image values of one or more image elements in the target region are changed such that the changed image values in the target region can be used to convey the sequence of logical values corresponding to the target data. The variations in image values are within a predetermined range such that no significant data distortion of perception distortion is caused by the data embedding. In a subsequent process, the embedded data can also be easily extracted from the image for use.

  • Patent number: 11832204
    Abstract: The user devices in managed networks, such as 5G and 6G networks, are required to adapt their uplink transmissions to the base station's resource grid, including the timing and frequency structure of the resource grid. Message-heavy legacy synchronization procedures can consume substantial resources. Therefore, a simpler, faster procedure is disclosed in which synchronization parameters are standardized where possible, timing signals are configured in minimal size where possible, and the user device collaborates with the base station to adjust the user device's clock setting, clock rate, timing advance (to match the base station's symbol boundaries), and Doppler correction (to match the base station's subcarrier frequency), without exchanging data messages other than very brief timing signals. Such ultra-lean synchronization procedures may enable low-complexity synchronization in future high-frequency communications.

  • Patent number: 11632202
    Abstract: Different filtered-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (f-OFDM) frame formats may be used to achieve the spectrum flexibility. F-OFDM waveforms are generated by applying a pulse shaping digital filter to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) signal. Different frame formats may be used to carry different traffic types as well as to adapt to characteristics of the channel, transmitter, receiver, or serving cell. The different frame formats may utilize different sub-carrier (SC) spacings and/or cyclic prefix (CP) lengths. In some embodiments, the different frame formats also utilize different symbol durations and/or transmission time interval (TTI) lengths.

  • Patent number: 11516700
    Abstract: Disclosed is a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). Disclosed is a method by which a terminal transmits a buffer status report (BSR) in a communication system, comprising the steps of: allocating an uplink resource from a base station; comparing the number of padding bits with a value obtained by summing the size of the BSR and the size of a sub-header of the BSR; and transmitting, to the base station according to the comparison result, the BSR including information indicating the presence or absence of a field representing a buffer size for at least one logical channel group (LCG).

  • Patent number: RE49646
    Abstract: The present disclosure proposes a method for transmitting a buffer status report informing of the data to be transmit in uplink. The method for transmitting buffer status report of a terminal in a wireless communication system includes checking, when allocating uplink resource for new data transmission, whether first buffer status report triggered but not cancelled exists, generating, when the first buffer status report exists, uplink data including the buffer status report, checking whether second buffer status report triggered but not cancelled exist except for the buffers status report included in the uplink data, and determining whether to cancel the second buffer status report depending on whether the first buffer status report is a regular buffer status report or periodic buffer status report. With the proposed method, the terminal is capable of transmitting the padding BSR without extra cancellation operation, resulting in reduction terminal's operation complexity.
