Disclosed are systems, apparatuses, processes, and computer-readable media for wireless communications. For example, a process may include receiving, at a network device (e.g., a vehicle or other type of network device), a plurality of messages using a first type of communication protocol, wherein the network device is part of a platoon including a plurality of network devices (e.g., a plurality of vehicles or other network device). The process may include generating, at the network device, a summary message summarizing the plurality of messages. The process may include transmitting the summary message using a second type of communication protocol.

A digital data communications network that supports efficient, scalable routing of data and use of network resources by combining a recursive division of the network into hierarchical sub-networks with repeating parameterized general purpose link communication protocols and an addressing methodology that reflects the physical structure of the underlying network hardware. The sub-division of the network enhances security by reducing the amount of the network visible to an attack and by insulating the network hardware itself from attack. The fixed bandwidth range at each sub-network level allows quality of service to be assured and controlled. The routing of data is aided by a topological addressing scheme that allows data packets to be forwarded towards their destination based on only local knowledge of the network structure, with automatic support for mobility and multicasting. The repeating structures in the network greatly simplify network management and reduce the effort to engineer new network capabilities.

A mobile wireless device that transmits messages to recipient devices that correspond to subscribers of a service for receiving packet-switched messages may poll a community of users of the service. Each user of the community of users may receive, in response to the poll, an indication to select a voting button. The mobile wireless device may receive poll responses from the community of users of the service. The poll responses may comprise predetermined text in order to minimize the potential of false responses that cannot be counted.

The present invention provides a method of transmitting broadcast signals. The method includes, encoding, by an encoder, PLP (Physical Layer Pipe) data; time interleaving, by a time interleaver, the encoded PLP data; frame mapping, by a framer, the time interleaved PLP data onto at least one signal frames; frequency interleaving, by a frequency interleaver, data in the at least one signal frames; and waveform modulating, by a waveform module, the frequency interleaved data in the at least one signal frame and transmitting, by the waveform module, broadcast signals having the modulated data, wherein the frequency interleaving is conducted according to an interleaving mode, wherein the interleaving mode is determined based on a FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) size.

A technique for Transport Protocol, TP, selection and setup of a connection between a client and a server is disclosed. An exemplary method aspect (in the client), comprises the steps of preparing a session setup message comprising: i) setup information for at least one candidate TP, and ii) a preference order for setup of the at least one TP; transmitting the prepared session setup message towards the server; and receiving, in response to the transmitted session setup message, a setup response message comprising setup information pertaining exclusively to one TP selected for the connection. A further method aspect (in the server) comprises the steps of receiving the session setup message; selecting, depending on availability of the candidate TPs, the most preferred TP on the basis of the preference order; and transmitting, in response to the received session setup message, the setup response message.

Context sensitive communication augmentation is disclosed. A user equipment (UE) can receive a trigger related to determining a context of a UE. The trigger can be manual, automatic, or remote. In response to receiving the trigger, the context of the UE can be determined based on sensor data. The sensor data can be received from a sensor of the UE or another sensor. Based on the context of the UE, a metric related to a communication modality of the UE can be determined. The metric can be communicated to another device. Information related to the context of the UE, including location information, can be communicated to the other device. A communication modality can be selected based on the metric relate to the UE and communication modalities of the other device. The metric can be updated based on changes in the context of the UE, allowing for updating the communication modality.

Methods and systems for exposing the network slice selection process to the entities within or attached to a client device are provided. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a method for allowing slice consumers within or attached to the client device to access and use Network Slice Selection Assistance Information (NSSAI) comprises, at a client device: receiving, at an Application Programming Interface (API) layer within the client device, a query for NSSAI, the query being sent by a slice consumer; sending, to a Fifth Generation modem within the client device, the query for NSSAI; receiving, from the 5G modem, a response to the query for NSSAI; and sending, to the slice consumer, the response to the query for NSSAI. Enhancements to the N1 interface as well to Core Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF), Application Function (AF), and Network Exposure Function (NEF) are presented.

Techniques discussed herein improve a user's playback experience of a multimedia file by automatically adjusting playback settings based on change history data stored in one or more profiles. A system is configured to detect and collect information regarding changes to playback settings made by one or more users, and/or made in response to input from one or more users, during presentation of a media title, such as a song and/or movie, on one or more computers. This information is processed by a backend process on one or more server computers to determine predicted preferred playback settings for a particular user using a particular computer or playback device, requesting a particular multimedia file.

A method performed by a transmitting device (101) operating in a communications network (100) is disclosed herein. The transmitting device (101) receives (503) an indication from a receiving device (102) operating in the communications network (100). The indication instructs the transmitting device (101) to perform a buffer reset. The indication is a value in a field (906) in a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) received from the receiving device (102). The transmitting device (101) then resets (504) the buffer, based on the received indication. A method performed by the receiving device (102) is also disclosed, whereby the receiving device (102) sends (1003) the indication to a transmitting device (101).

An algorithm download method, a device, and a related product. The method includes: obtaining an algorithm identifier of an algorithm and a capability description of a client; sending the algorithm identifier and the capability description to a cloud; and receiving a version code that is of the algorithm and that is returned by the cloud, where the version code is obtained by the cloud by searching based on the algorithm identifier and the capability description. According to the foregoing solution, an algorithm can be easily downloaded.
