Abstract:
In an embodiment, a source node assigns a first number to a probe data packet in a probe data flow in a sending sequence, where the first number is used to select a transmission path for the probe data packet. The source node sends the probe data packet in the probe data flow to a destination node at a first sending rate. Each time the source node receives a probe data packet backhauled by the destination node, the source node sends a service data packet in a service data flow, where the service data packet is assigned a second number corresponding to the probe data packet, and the second number is used to select a transmission path for the service data packet.

Provided are a method and an apparatus for adjusting an inner loop value, The method includes: repeatedly executing the following steps, wherein a history inner loop adjustment factor of each time-domain scheduling unit in a radio frame is initialized to be an initial inner loop adjustment factor of each time-domain scheduling unit: determining a block error rate corresponding to each time-domain scheduling unit according to ACK/NACK information corresponding to each time-domain scheduling unit, wherein the radio frame comprises N time-domain scheduling units, N being a positive integer; determining a current inner loop adjustment factor of each time-domain scheduling unit according to the block error rate corresponding to each time-domain scheduling unit and the history inner loop adjustment factor of each time-domain scheduling unit; and adjusting an inner loop value corresponding to each time-domain scheduling unit according to the current inner loop adjustment factor of each time-domain scheduling unit.
Abstract:
In a packet loss indication method, a user plane function (UPF) entity receives first indication information from a first base station, where the first indication information indicates that a first data packet was unsuccessfully sent, and that the first data packet was unsuccessfully sent includes that the UPF entity unsuccessfully sent the first data packet to the first base station or the first base station unsuccessfully sent the first data packet to a first terminal device. Second indication information is sent to a second base station, where the second indication information indicates that the first data packet was unsuccessfully sent.
Abstract:
Techniques for acknowledging communications from multiple devices are described herein. For example, a device may broadcast a group acknowledgement message indicating that communications from multiple devices have been received by the device. Each acknowledgement in the group acknowledgement message may include a device identifier for a device that sent a communication (e.g., a Medium Access Control (MAC) address of the device, a hash of the MAC address of the device, etc.) and a communication identifier for the communication (e.g., a sequence number of the communication, a Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) code for the communication, etc.).
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to communication methods and systems for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. Disclosed are reliable transmission methods for ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) in 5G next-generation core networks, which provide methods of redundant transmission through a plurality of transmission paths in order to perform transmission between radio access networks (RANs) through ultra-reliable transmission in the core network. The disclosure also provides simple multiple path transmission and multiple path transmission using an intermedia user plane function (I-UPF) according to the deployment environment of a network router.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing efficient downlink Hybrid Automatic Request (HARQ) feedback. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a wireless device in a cellular communications system comprises receiving downlink control information from a radio access node in a first subframe T. The downlink control information comprises an indication of a HARQ timing offset K. The method further comprises transmitting downlink HARQ feedback to the radio access node in a subframe T+K. In this manner, HARQ feedback can be directly scheduled by the network, which in turn enables efficient HARQ feedback.
Abstract:
According to various embodiments, a radio communication device may be provided. The radio communication device may include: a transmitter configured to transmit a null data packet. The null data packet may include acknowledgement data indicating acknowledgements for a plurality of packets. The null data packet may include a cyclic redundancy check field configured to provide information based on which the null data packet or acknowledgements may be checked for errors. The null data packet may include further information based on which the acknowledgements may be checked for errors.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for acknowledgement (ACK) transmission in a WLAN. A station receives a plurality of data frames from a plurality of other stations and then transmits an ACK for the plurality of data frames to the plurality of stations. The ACK is a multi-user (MU) block ACK frame which includes a plurality of block ACKs for the plurality of stations. One block ACK includes at least one ACK for at least one data frame that is received from one station.
Abstract:
A method (of operating a central node to acknowledge received messages) includes: receiving multiple data messages from multiple instances of a message-sourceable end node, respectively, each end-node-instance having an at least substantially unique identification (“ID”); and sending a dense acknowledgement message (“dense ACK”) acknowledging receipt of the data messages but not explicitly identifying any of the IDs of the corresponding end-node-instances. And a method (of operating a given instance of the end node to infer a delivery-condition at the central node of a data message sent by the given instance) including: sending a given data message including the substantially unique ID; receiving a dense ACK including a payload indicating receipt of multiple data messages but not explicitly identifying IDs of the given end-node-instance nor of other end-node-instances corresponding to the received messages, respectively; and inferring the delivery-condition based on a manipulated payload of the dense ACK.
Abstract:
A secondary base station according to an embodiment is configured to connect to a master base station via an X2 interface and for being used for a dual connectivity communication, which is to transmit downlink data from the master base station through a split bearer to a user equipment. The secondary base station comprises: a receiver configured to receive the downlink data transferred from the master base station; a transmitter configured to transmit the downlink data received by the receiver to the user equipment; and a controller configured to determine a release of the split bearer. The transmitter configured to transmit a release request message for requesting the release of the split bearer to the master base station in response to determining the release of the split bearer.
