Abstract: Methods and apparatus for determining and adjusting subcarrier spacing (SCS) to be used by a base station, e.g., a CBSD, for transmitting downlink data to one or more wireless devices, e.g., UEs, are described. A subcarrier spacing (SCS) level to be used by the base station is determined based on information relating to buffering of downlink data supplied to the base station via a cable, e.g., data accumulation rate (DAR) and/or average data arrival time (ADAT). Measured cable modem (CM) to base station latency is also used in the SCS determination. The amount of time for which a determined SCS level is to be used by the base station is set based on measured latency between a CMTS and the CM.

Abstract: In various embodiments an explicit congestion feedback capabilities indication, e.g., information indicating a UE's support or lack of support for low latency, low loss and scalable throughput services (L4S), is communicated in a message sent from a UE to device in a network core. In some embodiments the communicated UE capability information provides information about the capability of the UE sending the message to support the use of feedback (e.g., congestion feedback) for scalable throughput services (e.g., (L4S services) or other explicit congestion notification (ECN) services which use congestion feedback for encoding and/or data rate control). In some embodiments the message or messages communicating the UE capability information include a PDU Session Establishment Request message, a PDU Session Modification Request message, and/or a Registration Request message.

Abstract: A wireless station is allocated use of a time slot in a given direction, uplink or downlink, on a given channel. The wireless station monitors for presence of wireless energy during a portion of the time slot. Based on a detected level of the wireless energy in the time slot, the wireless station controls transmission of wireless communications in a direction opposite to the configured direction in a remaining part of the time slot.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for reducing delay while providing secure communications between nodes. An exemplary method embodiment includes a first node performing the steps of: identifying packets corresponding to a first communications session, the first communications session corresponding to a first application type; segmenting at least a first packet corresponding to the first communications session into at least a first packet portion and a second packet portion, the first packet including a first packet header and a first packet payload, the first packet portion including at least a portion of the first packet header, the second packet portion including at least a portion of the first packet payload; communicating, in encrypted form, the first packet portion from the first node to a security function node; and communicating, in unencrypted form, the second packet portion from the first node to the security function node.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting and/or mitigating video artifacts in a video. A processor in a computing device may be configured to receive the video from a video source (e.g., codec or from any other video source compressed or uncompressed) subtract pixel intensities from two consecutive frames in the video to generate a residual, analyze the residual to detect small rectangular shapes, and identifying a video artifact in the video based on a result of the analysis.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for filtering lawfully intercepted encrypted traffic are described. A communications service provider network includes a mediation device and a security device. The mediation device receives a provisioned intercept request including a target IP address and one or more unique identifies corresponding to the target. The security device acquires certificates and private keys corresponding to one or more content distribution networks of interest for which intercepted traffic is to be partially or fully discarded. The mediation device receives filtering requests specifying filtering rules to be applied. Intercepted traffic is processed by the mediation device operating in conjunction with the security device to attempt decryption and identify the corresponding CDN network for the intercepted traffic. The mediation devices filters the decrypted traffic in accordance with the filtering rules, discarding traffic that is not of interest to the law enforcement agency (LEA) and sending traffic of interest to the LEA.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for managing and/or mitigating interference between networks without the need for a centralized controller are described. Beams are used by a base station in various embodiments. The range of one or more beams on which excessive interference is detected is decreased. If beam range reduction reduces the detected interference on a beam to an acceptable level the base station will resume operation on the beam at the reduced range. On beams on which gain reduction is insufficient to bring the detected interference to an acceptable level and still provide a usable beam, the beam may be shut off and/or beam reshaping may be tried. When other steps to mitigate interference are insufficient, a base station attempts one or more timing adjustments to see if a timing change and/or adjustment of the TDD configuration results in reduced interference, e.g., by improving timing synchronization with an interfering signal source.

Abstract: Methods and systems for a configurable proxying application program interface (API) façade service. A method for using a proxying API façade service includes, for each proxying API façade, selecting exposed endpoint(s) associated with proxy subject API(s), each selected exposed endpoint corresponding to a mapped proxy endpoint in a proxying API façade, selecting one or more components, setting one or more rights and policies, storing one or more mapped proxy endpoints, the one or more components, and the one or more rights and policies as proxying API façade configuration data in an externalized configuration store, generating each proxying API façade by loading a corresponding proxying API façade configuration data from the externalized configuration store, and integrating a proxy client of each proxying API façade with a credential management server, the credential management server configured to authenticate access to a proxy subject API by a proxy client responsive to a client request.
