Abstract: Apparatuses, non-transitory program storage devices, and methods to implement a network function proxy are described. An example apparatus includes at least one non-transitory memory including computer program code configured with at least one processor to cause the apparatus to perform updating a profile including data associated with a producer network function in response to a registration request of the producer network function by adding a token identifier to a service identifier associated with a service of the producer network function, forwarding the updated profile to a network function repository function, wherein at least one internet protocol address is updated so that a proxy function is an endpoint for use of the service, storing and maintaining a mapping between the token identifier and the service of the producer network function, and providing the updated profile to a consumer network function in response to a discovery request for the service.

Abstract: As solution for predistorting a signal is presented. The solution comprises receiving (600) as an input a signal comprising at least two signal components on a different band, sampling (602) the input signal comprising linear terms, composite non-linear terms causing intermodulation outside Nyquist band of the input signal and further non-linear terms causing intermodulation inside the Nyquist band, the further non-linear terms comprising multi-band terms. Oversampling (604) by a given factor is applied to the signal in a first predistortion circuit for processing the linear terms and composite non-linear terms causing intermodulation outside Nyquist band; processing (606) the input signal without oversampling in a second predistortion circuit in parallel with the first predistortion circuit for the further non-linear terms. The rates of the output signals of the predistortion circuits are matched (608), combined and filtered (610).

Abstract: A method and apparatus comprises acquiring set of input streams associated with a spatial layer configured for a terminal device, and estimating a channel vector h representing a radio channel response associated with the spatial layer. An interference covariance matrix R representing power of interference is computed from at least one other spatial layer in the set of input streams and correlation of the interference within the set of input streams of the spatial layer. A per-layer interference rejection is performed, combining equalization on the set of input streams, comprising: a) estimating x=R−1h as a combination of a set of linear equations, wherein the number of linear equations is defined by an input parameter to be equal to or smaller than dimensions of the interference covariance matrix; and b) computing an estimate of a transmitted symbol on the basis of the channel vector and the estimated x.
