摘要:
A system and method of detecting polarity inversion in an optical switching circuit is disclosed. The method includes performing a first round of a port verification process on at least two optical ports, transmitting a payload from at least one optical port in the at least two optical ports, determining if the payload was received at a second optical port in the at least two optical ports, assigning a pair of ports to a first group in the case that the predetermined payload was communicated between the pair of ports, and assigning a pair of ports to a second group in the case that the predetermined payload was not communicated between the pair of ports. The method also includes determining that either the first group of ports or the second group of ports has inverted polarity.

In wireless networks where multiple base stations are deployed, handsets may handoff from one base station to the other while in a voice call. In this disclosure a layer-2 hand-off mechanism for cellular systems designed to operate in unlicensed spectrum is described. More specifically a proposed method that does not use any pre-determined thresholds to initiate the hand-offs is disclosed.
摘要:
One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that optimizes packet transmissions during a convergecast operation in a convergecast network. During operation, the system receives a request to perform the convergecast operation in the convergecast network. This convergecast network includes a base-station and a plurality of nodes, wherein during the convergecast operation the plurality of nodes communicate packets to the base-station. In response to the request, the system constructs a convergecast-tree, which includes the base-station and the plurality of nodes, based on hop counts from the plurality of nodes to the base-station. Next, the system linearizes the convergecast-tree so that the convergecast-tree contains a plurality of linear branches. The system then schedules packet transmission for each of the linear branches and each node in each branch based on a set of predetermined criteria to obtain a scheduled order. Finally, the system performs packet transmissions in the convergecast-tree using the scheduled order. Note that performing the convergecast operation in this way substantially optimizes the convergecast operation by reducing a total number of timeslots required to complete the convergecast operation.
