Abstract: Techniques discussed herein can facilitate handshake procedures for Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) communication in connection with various DSL (Direct Subscriber Line) technologies. Various embodiments can employ different methods of separation of signaling to arrange P2MP handshake procedures based on existing Point-to-Point (P2P) handshake procedures. Example embodiments can employ one of separation in frequency, separation in time, or separation in transmission power level.

Abstract: An access point may include a processing device. The processing device may determine, at a medium access control (MAC) layer, a first modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for a first set of orthogonal frequency duplex multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. The processing device may determine, at the MAC layer, a second MCS for a second set of OFDM symbols. The processing device may generate, at the MAC layer, one or more aggregate MAC protocol data units (A-MPDUs) including the first MCS and the second MCS. The processing device may send, from the MAC layer to a physical layer (PHY), the one or more A-MPDUs to generate a PHY service data unit (PSDU) including the first MCS and the second MCS.

Abstract: A method of adjusting operating configurations in a networking device to regulate thermal conditions in the networking device to be within a thermal range while optimizing service for the communication activity of networking device. Example implementations include analyzing communication activity of the one or more network interfaces to determine possible operating configurations to service the communication activity. In an example implementation, the possible operating configurations are learned based on the operating configurations and characteristics of the communication activity when the monitored thermal conditions leave and return the thermal range. Further, the one or more network interfaces of the device can be configured based on service levels for portions of the communication activity in order to regulate the thermal conditions. In some example implementations, instructions can be sent to another device communicating with the networking device to modify communications in order to regulate the thermal conditions.

Abstract: According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method may include assigning an activation window by an optical line terminal during a portion of an upstream transmitting window in a passive optical network (PON). The method may include performing a first modification to a first upstream transmission. The method may include performing a second modification to a second upstream transmission. The method may include receiving the first upstream transmission from a first optical network unit (ONU) during the activation window, the first ONU synchronized in the PON. The method may include receiving a second upstream transmission from a second ONU during the activation window, the second ONU requesting activation in the PON.

Abstract: A wireless transceiver having radios that support wireless communications with associated stations on a corresponding wireless local area network (WLAN). The wireless transceiver also includes: a utilization monitoring circuit, an association targeting circuit, and a power backoff circuit. The utilization monitoring circuit monitors communications between each of the radios and its associated stations. The association targeting circuit identifies, from the monitored communications of the utilization monitoring circuit, an underutilized one of the radios as a target radio for re-associating stations currently associated with at least one other radio and initiates the re-association with the target radio of the stations currently associated with the at least one other radio. The power backoff circuit reduces power to the at least one other radio.

Abstract: According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method may include obtaining a first signal at a first port of a communication system. The first signal may include a combination of an incident signal and a reflected signal. The method may include performing a first processing to the first signal. In response to the first processing, the method may include performing a second processing to the first signal. The method may include estimating a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) associated with a transmission line from results of the second processing to the first signal.

Abstract: Multiple methods for determining a location of a STA operating on a mesh wireless network are described herein. A STA finder is used to monitor changes in received signal strength at each access point of a group of access points operating the mesh wireless network. The changes in received signal strength are then utilized to determine a location of STAs operating on the mesh wireless network. Methods for identifying poor performance areas on the mesh wireless network using the position information and then providing recommendations for improving the performance of the mesh wireless network are also described herein.

Abstract: An example device may include an antenna node configured to be coupled to an antenna element. The antenna node may be configured to pass wireless communications over multiple frequency bands. The device may also include multiple signal paths coupled to the antenna node. Each of the multiple signal paths may be configured to carry a signal from a different one of the multiple frequency bands. The device may further include a switch element coupled to the antenna node by the multiple signal paths and an amplifier circuit within the multiple signal paths between the switch element and the antenna node. The amplifier circuit may be configured to amplify the signals carried by the multiple signal paths.
