A communication system and a communication method for one-way transmission are provided. The communication method includes: receiving, by a precision time protocol switch, a first synchronization message from a grandmaster clock; generating, by the precision time protocol switch, a second synchronization message according to the first synchronization message; transmitting, by the precision time protocol switch, the second synchronization message to a transmitting server and a programmable logic device; generating, by the transmitting server, a timestamp according to the second synchronization message; transmitting, by the transmitting server, at least one data packet and the timestamp to the precision time protocol switch; forwarding, by the precision time protocol switch, the at least one data packet and the timestamp to the programmable logic device; and determining, by the programmable logic device, whether to output the at least one data packet according to the timestamp and the second synchronization message.

An optical frame is received over an optical link within an optical network. The optical frame contains a payload of aggregated data, an alignment value, and a bit interleaved parity value. The content of the optical frame is aligned based on the alignment value. The bit interleaved parity value is monitored. In response to the monitoring, a transmission quality of the transmission link is determined.

A user equipment (UE) operating in a communication system comprising a base station and one or more UEs. The UE may be configured to operate on or “camp” on two different networks with one radio. In this exemplary system, the radio may be normally connected to the first network (NW1) and may from time to time be “tuned away” from NW1 to a second network (NW2). The UE may inform NW1 that it has tuned away to another network, e.g., using start and end indicators. This information may prevent NW1 from wasting downlink capacity by unnecessarily allocating downlink resources to the UE during the tune-away. Alternatively, or in addition, this information may prevent NW1 from penalizing the UE, e.g., by reducing its future downlink allocations, since the UE does not respond to NW1 commands during the tune-away.

Techniques for co-existence between wireless Radio Access Technologies (RATs) and related operations in shared spectrum are disclosed. Operation on a communication medium shared between RATs may be managed by a transceiver configured to operate in accordance with a first RAT and to monitor the medium for signaling associated with a second RAT. A medium analyzer may be configured to determine one or more Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) parameters of a TDM communication pattern associated with the second RAT based on the monitored signaling. A transmission controller may be configured to set one or more transmission parameters for the first RAT based on the determined one or more TDM parameters. The transceiver may be further configured to transmit on the medium in accordance with the one or more transmission parameters.

Diversity receiver front end system with flexible antenna routing. A receiving system can include a plurality of amplifiers. Each one of the plurality of amplifiers can be disposed along a corresponding one of a plurality of paths between an input of the receiving system and an output of the receiving system. Each one of the plurality of paths can correspond to a different frequency band. The receiving system can include an input multiplexer configured to receive, at one or more of a plurality of input multiplexer inputs, one or more RF signals. Each one of the one or more RF signals can include one or more frequency bands. The input multiplexer can be configured to output each of the one or more RF signals to one or more of a plurality of input multiplexer outputs. The receiving system can include a controller configured to receive an antenna configuration signal and, based on the antenna configuration signal, control the input multiplexer to route each of the one or more RF signals to propagate along one or more of the plurality of paths corresponding to the one of more frequency bands of the RF signal.

A method, apparatus and system for providing stateful service function paths with redundancy are provided. Multiple instances of a service function path are included, each with at least one instance of a stateful service function. The redundant stateful service functions transmit messages between one another to so that the current state is synchronized. Upon failure of a service function in a first instance of the service function path, packets are redirected to a backup associated with the failed service function located in another instance of the service function path. Once processed by the backup service function, the redirected packets may be routed back to the first instance of the service function path.

Methods, systems, and computer program products for fault localization for cloud-native applications are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes classifying an event-related alert directed to at least one system by processing one or more characteristics of the event-related alert; obtaining and processing multiple application logs based at least in part on the classification of the event-related alert; identifying error logs among the multiple application logs based at least in part on the processing of the multiple application logs; ordering the error logs using one or more prioritization techniques; and performing at least one automated action based at least in part on the ordering of the error logs.

A method and apparatus of performing discontinuous reception (DRX) and downlink inter-frequency and inter-radio access technology (RAT) measurements in CELL_FACH state are disclosed. While in DRX mode, a wireless transmit/receive unite (WTRU) may perform inter-frequency and inter-RAT measurements in a measurement occasion that fall into a DRX period. The WTRU may take the measurements on first predetermined number of frame in which a DRX frame would coincide after a last reception frame if DRX operation was ongoing. The WTRU may periodically wake up for downlink reception in CELL_FACH state in accordance with common DRX pattern that is common to all WTRUs in a cell or may wake up from DRX upon reception of the order and receiving a common traffic.

A device may obtain information. The information may represent a distance between a first user device and a second user device. The first user device and the second user device may share a destination address. The device may receive a first message associated with a call. The first message may be received based on the call having been made to the destination address. The device may determine, based on the information, whether to provide a second message associated with the call or a notification associated with the call. The device may selectively provide the second message or the notification based on determining whether to provide the second message or the notification.
