Aspects of methods and systems for frequency multiplexing suitable for Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) are provided. A system for multiplexing signals according to frequency comprises a DOCSIS port interface, an upstream interface, a downstream interface, and a circulator subsystem. The DOCSIS port interface comprises a plurality of channel filters. The upstream interface is operably coupled to a first channel filter of the plurality of channel filters, and the downstream interface is operably coupled to a second channel filter of the plurality of channel filters. The circulator subsystem is able to direct a first signal from the upstream interface to the DOCSIS port interface and is able to direct a second signal from the DOCSIS port interface to the downstream interface.

The present disclosure relates to multi-MAC controllers and single PHY systems and methods. An example method may include receiving, at a remote PHY device and from a first MAC device located at a headend of a network, a first data packet, including a first identifier. The example method may also include determining, by the remote PHY device and using the first identifier included in the first data packet, a first output of the PHY device onto which to transmit the first data packet, the first output including a first group of customer devices. The example method may also include receiving, at the remote PHY device and from a second MAC device located at the headend, a second data packet, including a second identifier. The example method may also include determining, by the remote PHY device and using the second identifier included in the second data packet, a second output of the PHY device onto which to transmit the second data packet, the second output including a second group of customer devices.

A cloud server (104) receives environmental information of respective installation sites of a plurality of appliances (101a, 101b, 101c, 102a, 102b) via a network (1000), and determines one or more appliances that are installed in a same room among the plurality of appliances (101a, 101b, 101c, 102a, 102b), based on the received environmental information.

A radio station (2) transmits or receives, to or from a radio terminal (1) in a second cell (23, 24), a CP message containing a NAS message or an RRC message or both, when a predetermined condition is satisfied. The second cell (23, 24) uses a RAT different from that of the first cell, and is used in addition and subordinate to the first cell. The predetermined condition relates to at least one of: (a) a content or type of the CP message; (b) a type of a signalling radio bearer used to transmit the CP message; (c) a transmission cause of the CP message; and (d) a type of a core network associated with the NAS message. It is thus, for example, possible to contributing to efficient transmission of control plane (CP) messages in a radio architecture that provides interworking of two different Radio Access Technologies (RATs).

An information processing apparatus according to the present disclosure includes a controller configured to execute acquiring operation information for a network-connected home appliance that is home electronic equipment which is provided in a dwelling house, and is configured to be accessible to a prescribed network and is capable of being controlled via the network, making an estimation as to entering/exiting of a vehicle utilized by a user of the dwelling house into/from a parking lot associated with the dwelling house on the basis of the operation information for the network-connected home appliance in the dwelling house, and issuing, to a management apparatus that manages entering/exiting of the vehicle, an enter/exit instruction for causing the vehicle to enter or exit if entering/exiting of the vehicle into/from the parking lot is estimated.

Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for routing in-bound communications to an infrastructure service. In an implementation, an infrastructure service receives a request from an end point for content associated with an origin. The service sends a connection request to the origin from an initial network address. After detecting a failure of the origin to respond to the connection request, the service sends multiple connection requests to the origin from different network addresses. Upon receiving one or more replies to the connection requests, the service identifies which reply was received first and a network address to which the reply was sent. The service proceeds to establish a connection with the origin using the identified network address and obtains the content from the origin over the connection. The infrastructure service may then send the content to the end point.

Methods, systems, computer readable media, and apparatuses for providing synchronous supplemental experiences are presented. According to one or more aspects, a video signal may be transmitted to a display device, and a sync signal may be transmitted to at least one other device. The sync signal may include an identifier of a program currently being displayed and a time value indicating a current point in time of the program. In at least one arrangement, the sync signal may cause the at least one other device to access content synchronization data; determine, based on the content synchronization data, that at least one supplemental experience corresponds to the identifier of the program and the time value; and present the at least one supplemental experience to a user.

This application is directed to a home monitoring and control system including a doorbell installed at a door of a home. The doorbell has a button configured to, upon being touched, depressed or activated, wirelessly initiate a first communication to indicate presence of a person at the door. The doorbell also has a camera configured to capture video data within a field of view, and a processor configured to cause a communication component to enable the first communication and wirelessly stream via a remote server the video data captured by the camera to a monitoring device associated with an occupant of the home. A rechargeable battery is coupled to a housing wire and configured to be charged via the housing wire, and the doorbell is configured to charge and discharge the rechargeable battery based on power usage of the doorbell.

The present disclosure discloses a method and a device in a User and a base station used for channel coding. A first node determines a first bit block; performs channel coding; and transmits a first radio signal. Bits in the first bit block are used to generate bits in a second bit block. The bits in the first bit block and in the second bit block are used for an input to the channel coding, an output after the channel coding is used to generate the first radio signal. Channel coding is based on a polar code. A sub-channel occupied by a target first type bit is related to the number of bits in the second bit block related to the target first type bit. The target first type bit belongs to the first bit block. The disclosure can improve decoding performance of polar codes and reduce complexity of decoding.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may indicate, to a base station, a capability of the UE to use a channel measurement resource for both a joint transmission hypothesis and a single transmission hypothesis. The UE may receive, based on indicating the capability of the UE, a configuration message indicating a first channel measurement resource that is associated with a first transmission configuration indicator state and that is configured for a first joint transmission hypothesis. The UE may obtain a channel measurement for both the first joint transmission hypothesis and a first single transmission hypothesis using the first channel measurement resource based on the configuration message.
