摘要:
A mesh network includes a plurality of mesh points (MPs), a central database (DB) and a central controller (CC). The MPs are configured to broadcast quality of service (QoS) information over a wireless medium. Each MP may request QoS information directly from at least one other one of the MPs. The MPs store QoS information in the central DB and are configured to query the central DB QoS information associated with any of the MPs. Thus, QoS information is shared throughout the mesh network, and QoS policies are defined and updated where an MP may co-exist with another MP, an MP may co-exist with systems external to the mesh network, and an MP may co-exist with mesh access points (MAPs).

The present invention relates to a method for confirming the delivery of a data packet in a mesh network by sending an acknowledgement (ACK) to an ingress mesh point (IMP). A mesh network comprises a plurality of mesh points that are wirelessly linked together. A data packet sent by a station (STA) is received by an IMP. A MAC frame is generated for transmission of the data packet and the frame is forwarded to an egress mesh point (EMP) in order to provide a service by the mesh network. The MAC frame includes a field comprising an IMP address and an EMP address. When the EMP, (or optionally an intermediate mesh point), receives a data packet successfully, the EMP or the intermediate mesh point sends an ACK to the IMP or preceding mesh point.

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to determine quality of service information. A device, such as a user equipment (UE), may receive a policy. The policy may indicate a level of inspection relating to application identification for a session. The device may receive information associated with the session. For example, the information may include application provided information, packet data, operating system provided information, etc. The device may perform an inspection of the received information at the level indicated by the policy. The device may perform the inspection in order to identify an application associated with the session.
摘要:
The present invention is related to a method and apparatus for transmitting concatenated frames in a wireless communication system comprising a plurality of mesh points (MPs). In one embodiment, a first MP transmits a data stream to a second MP, wherein the data stream is further transmitted to a third MP as a final destination. The second MP receives the data stream from the first MP. The second MP transmits a concatenated frame to the first and third MPs.

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed that provide coordination between MPTCP and mobile IP (MIP). An MPTCP session may be established between a mobile node and a correspondent node. MIP and simple IP subflows may be established in the MPTCP session. The mobile node may activate MIP and establish a first subflow via MIP. The first subflow may be associated with a first path that may be routed through a first home agent. The mobile node may deactivate MIP and establish a second subflow via simple internet protocol (IP). The second subflow may be associated with a second path that is not routed through a home agent.

Embodiments contemplate one or more socket application program interface (API) extensions that may provide one or more Internet Protocol Address lists. Embodiments may include determining a state (or status) of one or more available Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Further, embodiments may include communicating the state (or status) of the available Internet addresses to a Multi Connection Transport Protocol.

摘要:
Methods, systems and apparatus for managing and/or enforcing one or more policies for managing internet protocol (“IP”) traffic among multiple accesses of a network in accordance with a policy for managing bandwidth among the multiple accesses are disclosed. Among the methods, systems and apparatus is a method that may include obtaining performance metrics associated with the multiple accesses. The method may also include adapting one or more rules of one or more the policies for managing IP traffic among the plurality of accesses based, at least in part, on the performance metrics and the policy for managing bandwidth among the plurality of accesses. The method may further include managing IP traffic associated with at least one wireless transmit and/or receive unit (“WTRU”) among the plurality of accesses responsive to the adapted rules.
摘要:
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to communicate traffic flow information to a network. A user equipment (UE) may detect a traffic flow (e.g., using one or more of the traffic detection implementations described herein). A 5-tuple associated with the traffic flow may be unknown by the network. The UE may issue an alert to the network. The alert may indicate to the network that the traffic flow has been detected. The UE may determine the 5-tuple associated with the traffic flow. The UE may report the 5-tuple to the network. The report may be in response to one or more of: a request received from the network requesting traffic flow information; or, a determination that a first policy condition has been met.
摘要:
Embodiments contemplate one or more Session Manager and/or source IP address selection techniques. Embodiments contemplate that a session manager may establish a session in a wireless communication environment based on one or more policies specified by a policy manager. The session manager may also delete the session. For example, the session may be deleted in response to receipt of a request from an application. The session manager may store a session description for the session. The session manager may also perform source IP selection for a data plane. The session manager may also provide an MC transport with IP addresses for negotiating additional sub-flows.
