The disclosure relates to a transceiver device for communicating between a network protocol controller and a network bus, the transceiver device comprising: transceiver circuitry configured to transmit and receive data on the network bus using a first physical layer protocol; and monitoring circuitry configured to determine a measured property of the network bus, in which the transceiver device is configured to: determine whether the measured property indicates an error condition; and reconfigure the transceiver circuitry to transmit and receive data on the network bus using a second physical layer protocol in response to determining the error condition.

Described embodiments provide systems and methods for adapting/negotiating media information. A first device may determine a channel quality of a wireless channel in an unlicensed spectrum between the first device and a first tethered device. The first device may determine a first bit rate supportable on the wireless channel according to the channel quality. The first device may send, to the second device, an offer message with an offered bit rate comprising a lower of the first bit rate or a second bit rate supportable by a connection between the first device and the second device at least partially across a licensed spectrum. The first device may receive, from the second device, a reply message with a reply bit rate that is less than or equal to the offered bit rate, to apply to wireless communication across at least the first tethered device, the first device and the second device.

A method of UE includes receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message for configuring bandwidth parts (BWPs) of a serving cell, receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) indicating activation of a first BWP, performing a BWP switching to the first BWP indicated by the PDCCH, and starting a first downlink BWP timer associated with the first BWP. A UE includes a transceiver, and at least one controller coupled with the transceiver, the at least one controller configured to receive an RRC message for configuring BWPs of a serving cell, receive a PDCCH indicating activation of a first BWP, perform a BWP switching to the first BWP indicated by the PDCCH, and start a first downlink BWP timer associated with the first BWP.

A processor-implemented method includes integrating telecommunication network provider performance analytics with vendor testing automation such that specific data from vendor user equipment (UE) testing can be filtered out and the performance data results represent true service performance for the desired UEs. A network device associated with the network provider may establish an application programming interface (API) with a vendor device associated with the vendor to receive vendor testing information used to identify UEs undergoing vendor testing. The network device may identify the vendor UEs undergoing vendor testing when performing measurements on a group of UEs, such as key performance indicator (KPI) measurements.

Systems and methods are disclosed to monitor real-time digital data for degradation. In one embodiment, an intelligent electronic device (“IED”) in an electric power system may include an interface to receive a stream of digital data, the stream of digital data comprising a plurality of data frames. A protective action subsystem may monitor the sampled digital data and implement a protective action based on the stream of sampled digital data. A digital data degradation detection subsystem may analyze a plurality of digital metrics associated with the plurality of data frames and make a determination regarding degradation of a communication channel based on whether the plurality of digital metrics fails at least one threshold. In response to the determination, the digital data degradation detection subsystem may implement a response to the determination that the plurality of digital metrics fails at least one threshold.

A method receives error measurements from network elements. Groups of network elements are generated based on similarity of error measurements and a bitloading profile for each of the groups of network elements is generated based on the error measurements for each respective group. Each bitloading profile includes a modulation level determined to be sufficient for transporting content to respective groups of network elements. The method then assigns a set of bitloading profiles to each network element based on the groups of network elements and the bitloading profile generated for each of the groups. The bitloading profile for each of the groups of network elements and the assigned set of bitloading profiles are output to a network device. The network device uses the bitloading profiles to modulate content sent to respective customer premise equipment.

Embodiments described herein describe a network tester that is configured to perform packet modification at an egress pipeline of a programmable packet engine. A packet stream is received at an egress pipeline of an output port of the programmable packet engine, wherein the output port includes a packet modifier. Packets of the packet stream are modified at the packet modifier. The packet stream including modified packets is transmitted through an egress pipeline of the output port.

A network device may detect an error associated with a packet based on error information being generated from processing the packet at a layer of a network stack. The network device may determine, based on detecting the error, metadata associated with the packet. The network device may generate telemetry data to include the metadata. The network device may provide the telemetry data to a network analyzer for policy enforcement.

An example method may include determining a multi-user packet error rate associated with communications from a client device to a host device, the multi-user packet error rate based on a number of packets in a multi-user communication frame with an error. The method may also include sending a trigger from the host device to the client device to communicate via a second multi-user communication frame, the trigger identifying a transfer rate based on the multi-user packet error rate.

Disclosed are a method and apparatus for processing interference, a storage medium and an electronic device. The method includes: generating a first reference signal, and sending the first reference signal according to a first parameter set.
