摘要:
Appropriate determinations in a series of tests, which transition from more passive tests to more active tests, control the admission of data streams onto a network data path. More passive tests can include promiscuous mode and packet-pair tests. When the results of more passive tests indicate a reduce likelihood of a data stream causing a network data path to transition into a congested state, the network data path can be actively probed to make a more precise determination on the likelihood of congestion. A train of diagnostic data packets is transmitted at a diagnostic data transfer rate having a significantly reduced chance of causing congestion. A train of target data packets is transmitted at a requested application transfer data rate. The number of target data packets received within a specified delay threshold is compared to the number of diagnostic data packets receive with the delay threshold.

A multiuser scheme allowing for a number of users, sets of user, or carriers to share one or more channels is provided. In the invention, the available channel bandwidth is subdivided into a number of equal-bandwidth subchannels according to standard OFDM practice. A transmitter transmits data on a set of OFDM subchannels that need not be contiguous in the spectrum or belong to the same OFDM channel. A receiver receives and decodes the data and detects errors on subchannels. The receiver then broadcasts the identity of those subchannels on which the error rate exceeds a specific threshold, and the transmitter may select different subchannels for transmission based on this information.

A system for signaling an application when a requested data rate and Quality of Service cannot be achieved using OFDM wireless data transmission, and the application proceeds by either renegotiating QoS and data rate, or waiting until they requested rate and QoS are met.

Gaze tracking or other interest indications are used during a video conference to determine one or more audio sources that are of interest to one or more participants to the video conference, such as by determining a conversation from among multiple conversations that a subset of participants are participating in or listening to, for enhancing the audio experience of one or more of the participants.

The subject disclosure is directed towards a hybrid stereo image/motion parallax system that uses stereo 3D vision technology for presenting different images to each eye of a viewer, in combination with motion parallax technology to adjust each image for the positions of a viewer's eyes. In this way, the viewer receives both stereo cues and parallax cues as the viewer moves while viewing a 3D scene, which tends to result in greater visual comfort/less fatigue to the viewer. Also described is the use of goggles for tracking viewer position, including training a computer vision algorithm to recognize goggles instead of only heads/eyes.

A method is provided for a host node in a computer network to determine its coordinates in a d-dimensional network space, comprising discovering an address of a peer node in the network, measuring network latency between the host node and the peer node, determining whether network latency has been measured for at least d+1 peer nodes, where, if network latency has not been measured for at least d+1 peer nodes, estimating the network coordinates of the host node, and where, if network latency has been measured for at least d+1 peer nodes, calculating the network coordinates of the host node using d+1 measured latencies.

A shared concept of time, called “graph time,” is agreed upon by all nodes within a graph. Each node maintains its own local delta representative of a difference in the node's system clock and graph time. Upon connecting to a neighbor node in a graph, a node is sent graph time as perceived by the neighbor node. In accordance with an embodiment, the node assumes that the lag time in receiving the graph time from the neighbor node is one-half of the lag time between the request for the connection and the receipt of the graph time. Graph time as sent by the neighbor node is added to one-half of the total delay and the sum is subtracted from the node's system time to calculate the delta for the node requesting connection.

An ad-hoc discovery protocol improves reliability, security and scalability of multicast and server-based discovery. In switching from multicast to server-based discovery, the discovery client is made responsible for multicast suppression, and not discoverable devices with services. Messages include message identifier and time-to-live parameters to detect recast queries and avoid duplicating replies. A device's announcement message includes endpoint identifier, configuration number and stateless boot time parameters to detect changed device configuration and rebooted state for refreshing cached device and service descriptions. Paging parameters allow a discovery client to control the number of discovery responses returned at a time from a discovery server.
