A method and apparatus are provided for transmitting and receiving control information. A method performed by a UE includes receiving, from a base station, DCI or a higher layer signaling; when first priority UCI and second priority UCI are transmitted in a same physical uplink channel, separately encoding the first priority UCI and the second priority UCI, based on a first number of bits of the first priority UCI and a second number of bits of the second priority UCI; and transmitting, based on the DCI or the higher layer signaling, the encoded first priority UCI and the second priority UCI, to the base station, on the same physical uplink channel.

A system and method for transmitting high speed data on fixed rate and for variable rate channels. The system and method provides the flexibility of adjusting the data rate, the coding rate, and the nature of individual retransmissions. Further, the system and method supports partial soft combining of retransmitted data with previously transmitted data, supports parity bit selection for successive retransmissions, and supports various combinations of data rate variations, coding rate variations, and partial data transmissions.

A method includes a compute node transmitting data to a port of a first switch at a first data transfer rate, monitoring the temperature of the port, and a management node providing an instruction to the compute node in response to the port temperature exceeding a temperature limit, wherein the instruction instructs the compute node to reduce the first data transfer rate to the port. The method further includes the compute node reducing the data transfer rate to the port in response to receiving the instruction. The method is applicable to multiple compute nodes transmitting data to multiple ports of a first switch. The data transfer rate may be reduced by throttling the compute node, renegotiating a link speed between the compute node and the port, or redirecting data to another switch. The methods facilitate thermal control of a switch without its own thermal throttling capability.

Embodiments of the invention include a communication interface and protocol for allowing communication between devices, circuits, integrated circuits and similar electronic components having different communication capacities or clock domains. The interface supports communication between any components having any difference in capacity and over any distance. The interface utilizes request and acknowledge phases and signals and an initiator-target relationship between components that allow each side to throttle the communication rate to an accepted level for each component or achieve a desired bit error rate.

Methods and systems are disclosed that may help a base station to adjust forward-link data rates in a given sector based on transmission-power variations in neighboring sectors. An exemplary method involves a base station that serves a first sector: (a) determining a respective transmission power for each of two or more channels of a second sector, (b) detecting a transmission-power difference between at least two of the channels of the second sector, and (c) in response to detecting the transmission-power difference: (i) determining a data rate control (DRC) adjustment for the first sector based at least in part on the transmission-power difference; and using the determined DRC adjustment to determine a forward-link data rate for at least one access terminal in the first sector.

A dynamic data distribution method in a private network and an associated electronic device are provided. The private network includes: a first pairing connection between a first electronic device, a second electronic device, and a second pairing connection between the first electronic device and a third electronic device. The method includes the steps of: receiving sensor data from the second electronic device by the first electronic device; notifying the second electronic device to build a third pairing connection with the third electronic device according to a determination result between the first electronic device and the third electronic device; and terminating the first pairing connection and retrieving the sensor data from the second electronic device through the third electronic device by the first electronic device when the third pairing connection has been built.

The present disclosure relates to communication networks. Some embodiments may include a communication network with two or more network nodes each comprising: a receiver discerning the signal quality of received signals; a transmitter sending signals at different data rates; and a controllable terminating impedance. A network node transmits the discerned signal quality to one or more additional network nodes, a network node records the signal qualities and corresponding values of the terminating impedances of the respective network nodes. A network node prescribes for additional network nodes a new respective value to set as a terminating impedance. A network node determines new terminating impedance values to optimize the data rate between the various network nodes and the signal quality at each of the network nodes.

A system communicates packets of data between two computers starting at an initial rate. The system then enters a slow start mode and increases the rate. As the rate increases, the system monitors acknowledgement data indicating a round trip time (RTT) associated with individual packets. When the RTT meets or exceeds a threshold, the system exits the slow start mode and continues the background connection a selected rate. The selected rate is based on the acknowledgement data associated with one or more packets having an RTT that meet or exceed the threshold. The features disclosed herein mitigate some of the issues with the LEDBAT protocol and other congestion control techniques, some which may include queue overflows and unnecessary slowdowns.

The technologies disclosed herein provide improvements to the Low Extra Delay Background Transport (LEDBAT) protocol. In some scenarios, a LEDBAT connection cannot obtain accurate measurements for the base delay that it relies on. Slowing down a connection, initially and periodically, can ensure that base delay measurements begin accurately and remain accurate throughout the life of a connection. Data is communicated between two computers in a slow start mode, where a rate of the communication is increased over time from an initial rate. When one or more conditions are met, e.g., an interval lapses, the communication is slowed for a predetermined time period. The communication of the data then resumes in a slow start mode, where a rate of the communication is increased over time from an initial rate.
