Abstract:
The present invention provides for a scheduling scheme to be used with respect to a given mobile station. It is determined whether the given mobile station is or is not in soft-handoff. This is performed through examining a reduced active set. The reduced active set is based upon the active set, and the selection of the reduced active set includes considerations such as received reverse link channel signal strength. If the mobile station is in soft hand-off or with reduced active set size of greater than one, congestion control scheduling of reverse link communications from the given mobile station is utilized, using a data rate set by the congestion control of the reverse link channel. If the mobile station is not in soft-handoff or with reduced active set size of one, explicit scheduling of the reverse link communications from the given mobile station is utilized, using a data rate set by the explicit data rate control of the reverse link channel.
Abstract:
A system determines an optimal set of base transceiver sets that are to transmit data over supplemental channels to a mobile station. A mobile station transmits periodic signal strength measurement message to rank the pilot signal strengths being received from the plurality of base station transceiver systems. Whenever the number of fundamental channel sectors that are active exceeds the maximum number of active supplemental channel sectors, periodic pilot strength measurement messages are transmitted by the mobile station. To improve resource usage, periodic pilot strength measurement messages are not transmitted as often as required to insure that the active supplemental channel sectors are the ones from which the strongest signals are received by the mobile station. Rather, a combination of periodic pilot strength measurement messages and calculated reverse link signal strength over spectral noise density values are used.
Abstract:
A Data Link Control protocol for 3G wireless communication system for direct support for network layer protocols, e.g. the Internet Protocol (IP), is provided. The Link Layer disclosed comprises a Link Access Control (LAC) sublayer and a Medium Access Control (MAC) sublayer. At a transmit end of the wireless system, a plurality of Quality of Service (QoS) data planes are created to directly support the IP QoS. Each QoS data plane is optimized to handle QoS requirements for a corresponding Class of Service (CoS). Data packets received at the LAC sublayer are directed to a QoS data plane according to the particular QoS information they contain and processed according to the particular QoS requirement to generate variable size LAC frames. The variable size LAC frames are transmitted to the MAC sublayer for generating radio link protocol data units (RLP PDUs) to be transmitted to a receiving end. A new level of error correction is provided at the LAC sublayer as the size of the LAC PDUs can be dynamically adjusted in response to the conditions of the communication link. A dual mode ARQ is provided at the MAC sublayer to improve the quality of the air transmission for bursty as well as non-bursty traffic conditions.
Abstract:
Systems and techniques for service roaming between edge computing platforms are described herein. A service executing on a first edge computing platform may be identified to be migrated to a second edge computing platform. A first service component may be determined that is being executed by the first edge computing platform. Transmission of the service to the second edge platform may be initiated to execute a second service component for execution of the service.
Abstract:
System and techniques for Information Centric Network (ICN) routing are described herein. An ICN node receives a routing packet—which is a link layer packet corresponding to a link of the ICN node—that includes an ICN name and a routing metric. An entry for the link and name is created or updated and then sorted into a local routing data store based on the routing metric. Then, an interest packet for the ICN name is routed via the link based on the entry having a highest rank in the local routing data store.
Abstract:
Apparatuses for non real-time (Non-RT) radio access network intelligence controller (RIC) and Near-RT RIC services for machine learning (ML) model management in an open radio access network (O-RAN) are disclosed. The services include ML model monitoring, getting and putting ML models from and to an A1-ML producer and an A1-ML consumer, and terminating the use of an ML mode. The ML model monitoring includes the A1-ML consumer sending monitoring data to the A1-ML producer and the A1-ML producer processing the monitoring data and taking actions based on the monitoring data. The services may be performed over the A1 interface using HTTP.

Embodiments of computer-implemented methods, systems, computing devices, and computer-readable media are described herein for monitoring, by a mobile proxy associated with a control system of a cloud radio access network (“C-RAN”), application layer data traffic between the control system and a wireless communication device. In various embodiments, the mobile proxy may, based on the monitoring, facilitate alteration of data plane or control plane processing by the wireless communication device or a remote radio head (“RRH”) associated with the C-RAN.
Abstract:
A mobile station determines whether the mobile station is receiving an overhead message in tunnel mode during a handover procedure of the mobile station from a source wireless access network to a target wireless network. The source and target wireless access networks are according to different technologies. In response to determining that the mobile station is in the tunnel mode, tunnel mode processing of the overhead message is performed. In response to determining that the mobile station is not in the tunnel mode, different processing of the overhead message is performed.
