Abstract: Embodiments are provided for traffic scheduling based on user equipment (UE) in wireless networks. A location prediction-based network scheduler (NS) interfaces with a traffic engineering (TE) function to enable location-prediction-based routing for UE traffic. The NS obtains location prediction information for a UE for a next time window comprising a plurality of next time slots, and obtains available network resource prediction for the next time slots. The NS then determines, for each of the next time slots, a weight value as a priority parameter for forwarding data to the UE, in accordance with the location prediction information and the available network resource prediction. The result for the first time slot is then forwarded from the NS to the TE function, which optimizes, for the first time slot, the weight value with a route and data for forwarding the data to the UE.

Abstract: System and method embodiments are provided for provisioning a quality of cellular user experience (QoE) or quality of service (QoS) specified device in a wireless local area network (LAN). The embodiments enable a QoE or QoS specified by a service agreement for a device to be maintained during periods when the device is transmitting data to and receiving data from the wireless LAN (e.g., a WiFi hotspot). In an embodiment, a method includes determining that at least one QoS-sensitive device is communicating with a wireless LAN access point (AP), reserving a contention free period (CFP) in a superframe for the at least one QoS-sensitive device to communicate with the AP, and allocating a contention period (CP) in the superframe for non-QoS-sensitive devices to communicate with the AP, wherein the non-QoS-sensitive devices are prohibited from transmitting during the CFP.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for assessing radio resource requirements using virtual bin virtualization. An embodiment method includes receiving a service request from a user equipment (UE) in a geographical bin. Resource requirements are then obtained, from a lookup table (LUT), for a serving radio node and neighbor radio nodes associated with the geographic bin of the UE. The LUT comprises a plurality of entries that map combinations of path losses of wireless links for the serving radio node and neighbor radio nodes to corresponding combinations of resource requirements. The entries of the path losses further include one or more service specific and network node parameters for the serving radio nodes and neighbor radio nodes, which are also mapped to the resource requirements. The obtained resource requirements are then assessed, including deciding whether to serve the UE according to the resource requirements and to resource availability.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided to enable a user controlled path selection for servicing content requests from users. In an embodiment, a user device sends a cost request for a service to a network, and in return receives cost information for the service from the network. The user device then determines, according to the cost information, cost for one or more paths across the network. Upon determining acceptable cost for a path from the paths, the user device selects the path for receiving the service. In another embodiment, a network node coupled to links receives loading information from neighbor nodes coupled to neighbor links, and evaluates cost using loading information for the links and the received loading information for the neighbor links. When the network node receives a cost request from a user for a service, the node returns cost information for the service.

Abstract: Historical decoding in accordance with signal interference cancellation (SIC) or joint processing may reduce the amount of data that is re-transported across a network following an unsuccessful attempt to decode a data transmission. In one example, historical decoding is performed in accordance with interference cancellation by communicating information related to interfering data (rather than information related to serving data) following a served receiver's unsuccessful attempt to decode an interference signal. The information related to the interfering data may be the information bits carried by the earlier interfering data transmission or parity information (e.g., forward error correction (FEC) bits, etc.) related to the earlier interfering data transmission.

Abstract translation: 根据信号干扰消除（SIC）或联合处理的历史解码可以减少在不成功解码数据传输的尝试之后通过网络重新传输的数据量。 在一个示例中，在服务的接收机的不成功尝试解码干扰信号之后，通过传送与干扰数据相关的信息（而不是与服务数据相关的信息），根据干扰消除来执行历史解码。 与干扰数据相关的信息可以是与较早的干扰数据传输相关的早期干扰数据传输或奇偶校验信息（例如，前向纠错（FEC）比特等）携带的信息比特。
