Signal transfer devices that relay base stations of service providers that perform communication with radio terminals and an aggregation station that controls the base stations, and a route control device that controls signal distribution to user network interfaces (UNIs) and network network interfaces (NNIs) of each of the signal transfer devices, are included. The route control device includes an allocation information acquisition unit that acquires allocation information of frequency to each of the base stations; a band adjustment unit that adjusts an MBH band for each of the UNIs, on the basis of correspondence relation information representing a correspondence relation between the UNIs and the service providers, band information indicating a maximum MBH band of each of the UNIs, and the allocation information; and a distribution determination unit that determines signal distribution to each of the NNIs, on the basis of the MBH band adjusted by the band adjustment unit and configuration information representing a connection configuration of each of the signal transfer devices. The signal transfer device transmits a signal from each of the NNIs on the basis of the signal distribution to each of the NNIs determined by the distribution determination unit.

A method and a device for determining deployment information of a network are disclosed. The method for determining deployment information of a network includes: receiving, by a first network entity, a first message sent by a second network entity, where the first message carries first deployment information, and the first deployment information is deployment information of a network component; and determining, by the first network entity, second deployment information based on the first deployment information, where the second deployment information is deployment information of a network, and the network includes at least one network component. The foregoing solution can improve accuracy of determining deployment information of a network.

The present invention relates to a receiver-centric transmission system for IoT systems, such as lighting networks, with combo protocol radio chips that share a single radio front-end for two or more transmission protocols of different network technologies while preventing unacceptable performance degradations in one or both protocol modes. The receiver-centric approach allows implementation of two networks with acceptable performances on one single radio chip per node rather than requiring two radio chips per node.

Methods and apparatus for monitoring and controlling access to coexisting first and second networks within a venue. In one embodiment, the first network is a managed content delivery network that includes one or more wireless access points (APs) in data communication with a backend controller which communicates with a dedicated background scanner. The background scanner scans for coexisting networks within the venue, and reports this to the controller. In one variant, the controller dynamically adjusts transmit characteristics of the AP(s) to manage interference between the coexisting networks. In another variant, the controller causes the energy detect threshold of a client device to be lowered so that the device may detect WLAN signals in a scenario where a coexisting RAT (for example, LTE-U or LTE-LAA) occupies the same channel and/or frequency.

Provided are an electronic device and method for wireless communication, and a computer-readable storage medium. The electronic device comprises: a processing circuit, configured to: construct an interference overlapping diagram based on an interference/coexistence relationship between resource application systems within a management range, wherein a connection point of the interference overlapping diagram represents one or more resource application systems, and an edge of the interference overlapping diagram represents the fact that interference exists between the resource application systems represented by two connection points linked with the edge; remove one or more edges in the interference overlapping diagram so as to enable the interference overlapping diagram to meet a pre-determined condition after the removal; and carry out channel/resource allocation based on the adjusted interference overlapping diagram.

Bandwidth parts (BWPs) and other resources for wireless communications are described. A wireless device may use a BWP control procedure and/or a BWP timer management procedure for activating, deactivating, and/or switching BWPs, for example, using multiple active BWPs. A base station may send information comprising one or more fields indicating an action associated with a BWP, for example, if multiple active BWPs are supported. A wireless device may control a first BWP inactivity timer associated with a first active BWP, for example, based on activating, deactivating, and/or switching a second BWP.

A wireless device receives configuration parameters of a first uplink carrier and a second uplink carrier of an unlicensed cell. A first contention window is determined for a first listen before talk (LBT) procedure for a first channel of the first uplink carrier. Based on switching from the first uplink carrier to the second uplink carrier, a second contention window is determined to be a minimum contention window, of a plurality of contention windows, for a second LBT procedure of a second channel of the second uplink carrier. A transport block is transmitted, via the second uplink carrier, based on the second LBT procedure using the second contention window.

A surgical device is provided. The surgical device includes a tubular outer shaft having a longitudinal axis and an angled guide positioned on a first end of the surgical device. The angled guide may be angled relative to the longitudinal axis of the outer shaft. The surgical device includes an elongated inner shaft having a second end and a third end. The inner shaft is removably coupled to the outer shaft and configured to axially translate through the outer shaft. The surgical device includes pivotal device having at least one joint and an access tool. The at least one joint may be pivotally coupled to the third end of the inner shaft and to an end of the access tool. The pivotal device may be configured to axially translate through the angled guide into a deployed position.

A base station may transmit, to a wireless device, configuration parameters of a first bandwidth part (BWP) and a second BWP of an unlicensed cell. The base station may determine, for the wireless device and with the first BWP being an active BWP, a first number of consecutive listen before talk (LBT) procedures, for a first channel of the active BWP, performed based on a contention window being a maximum contention window of a plurality of contention windows corresponding to the first channel. Based on switching from the first BWP to the second BWP as the active BWP, the base station may determine, for the wireless device, a second number of consecutive LBT procedures, for a second channel of the active BWP, performed based on the contention window being the maximum contention window of a plurality of contention windows corresponding to the second channel.
