For Packet Or Frame Multiplexed Data Patents (Class 714/776)
  • Patent number: 11979232
    Abstract: A system performs verification of Ethernet hardware. A data frame including a first portion for storing a checksum value and a second portion for storing a timestamp value is received. The second portion of data frame is set to zero. A timestamp value for including in second portion of the data frame is received. A modified checksum value is determined based on the checksum value included in the first portion of the data frame and the timestamp value. A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) value is determined for the data frame by nullifying the checksum value in the data frame and considering the timestamp value. A final CRC value is determined by combining the CRC value for the data frame and a CRC correction value based on the checksum. The modified data frame is sent for processing using an emulator.

  • Patent number: 11636061
    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe on-demand packetization where data that is too large to be converted directly into data words (DWs) for a chip-to-chip (C2C) interface are packetized instead. When identifying a protocol word that is larger than the DW of the C2C interface, a protocol layer can perform packetization where a plurality of protocol words are packetized and sent as a transfer. In one embodiment, the protocol layer removes some or all of the control data or signals in the protocol words so that the protocol words no longer exceed the size of the DW. These shortened protocol words can then be mapped to DWs and transmitted as separate packets on the C2C. The protocol layer can then collect the portion of the control data that was removed from the protocol words and transmit this data as a separate packet on the C2C interface.

  • Patent number: 11595152
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a binary clustered forward error correction encoding scheme. Systems and methods are disclosed that define binary clustered encodings of the media packets from which forward error correction (FEC) packets are computed. The different encodings specify which media packets in a frame are used to compute each FEC packet (a frame includes M media packets). The different encodings may be defined based on the quantity of media packets in a frame, M?floor(2N), where each bit of the binary representation of N is associated with a different cluster pair encoding of the media packets. Each cluster pair includes a cluster for which the bit=0 and a cluster for which the bit=1. Computing FEC packets using at least two cluster pair encodings provides redundancy for each media packet, thereby improving media packet recovery rates.

  • Patent number: 11563829
    Abstract: Various examples and schemes pertaining to simple Ethernet header compression are described. A first network node transmits a first packet with a full header to a second network node. The first network node determines whether a header compression context for the full header has been established by the second network node. In response to determining that the header compression context for the full header has been established by the second network node, the first network node transmits a second packet with a compressed header to the second network node. In response to determining that the header compression context for the full header has not been established by the second network node, the first network node transmits the second packet or a third packet with the full header to the second network node.
