    Abstract: A packet forwarding apparatus includes a first storage device and a processor. The first storage device has a plurality of buffers allocated therein, and at least one buffer included in the plurality of buffers is arranged to buffer at least one packet. The processor is arranged to execute a Linux kernel to perform software-based packet forwarding associated with the at least one packet. The at least one buffer allocated in the first storage device is recycled through direct memory access (DMA) management, and is reused for buffering at least one other packet.

    Abstract: The mobile communication device supports a plurality of RATs and includes a first wireless transceiver, a second wireless transceiver, and a controller. The first wireless transceiver performs wireless transmission and reception to and from a first cellular network utilizing a first RAT. The second wireless transceiver obtains a non-cellular signal indicator. The controller determines whether the first RAT is a predetermined one of the plurality of RATs when the mobile communication device camps on the first cellular network, and if not, predicts whether there is a second cellular network available, which utilizes the predetermined RAT, based on the non-cellular signal indicator. In response to predicting that the second cellular network is available based on the non-cellular signal indicator, the controller further enables the mobile communication device to camp on the second cellular network via the first wireless transceiver.
