Methods and apparatuses for transmitting data through a switch-based network in an in-vehicle communications network system. In an example transmission-based method, the method includes for a transmitter device generating, by a generator, a reservoir data stream (RSSj). The method also includes transmitting the reservoir data stream (RSSj) through the switch-based network. The method further includes, when a new data stream from the transmitter device to a receiver device is needed, replacing, by an injector, at least part of the reservoir data stream (RSSj) by a new data stream.

A computer-implemented method for monitoring a communication system includes identifying a set of signals that need to be transmitted over the communication system for proper functioning of the control and/or surveillance; for each signal from the identified set of signals, identifying one or more resources of the communication system that are needed for transmission of this signal; obtaining information that is indicative of the operational state of the identified resources; and evaluating, from the obtained information, at least one remedial activity which, when performed on at least one resource, and/or on the control and/or surveillance, is likely to improve, and/or to restore, the reliability of the control and/or surveillance.

A surgical hub within a surgical hub network may include a controller having a processor, in which the controller may determine a priority of a communication, an interaction, or a processing of information based on a requirement of a device communicating with the hub. The device may be a smart surgical device. The requirement of the surgical device may comprise data processed by a device component of an associated system The controller may prioritize communication of the data processed by the device component of the associate system with the surgical device. A network of surgical hubs may include a plurality of surgical hubs. Each hub may have one of a plurality of controllers, in which a first of the plurality of controllers is configured to distribute an execution of a process and data used by the process among at least a subset of the plurality of surgical hubs.

The present invention provides a frame transmission method of an electronic device, wherein the frame transmission method includes the steps of: receiving a pause frame from another electronic device, wherein the pause frame includes a plurality of inter frame gap control indicator, and each of the inter frame gap control indicator includes a plurality of packet size ranges and corresponding pause times; selecting one of the inter frame gap control indicator according to a priority of a first packet to be sent to the other electronic device, and determining a first inter frame gap according to which packet size range the first packet belongs to; and after a first frame including the first packet is sent to the other electronic device, at least waiting for the first inter frame gap before starting to send a second frame to the other electronic device.

A communication method includes that a first network device generates indication information based on service usage of a first network slice and a service usage threshold of the first network slice, and sends the indication information to a second network device. The second network device controls resource pre-emption based on the indication information.

Wireless communications systems and methods related to reallocating resources assigned to sidelinks are provided. A first user equipment receives a preemption indication from a base station. The preemption indication is for reallocating resources allocated for communication between the first user equipment and the base station and for sidelink communication between the first user equipment and a second user equipment. Based on the preemption indication, the first user equipment reallocates the resources for the communication between the first user equipment and the base station. Based on the preemption indication, the first user equipment reallocates the resources for the sidelink communication between the first user equipment and the second user equipment.

A terminal (20) includes a transmission control unit (203). The transmission control unit (20) sets a plurality of LL transmission queues (113_LL1, 113_LL2, 113_LL3), into each of which is input low latency data, regarding which latency conditions relating to latency are stricter than predetermined latency conditions. The latency conditions demanded of the low latency data that is input are different from each other among the plurality of LL transmission queues (113_LL1, 113_LL2, 113_LL3).

A method for communication includes receiving and forwarding packets in multiple flows to respective egress interfaces of a switching element for transmission to a network. For each of one or more of the egress interfaces, in each of a succession of arbitration cycles, a respective number of the packets in each of the plurality of the flows that are queued for transmission through the egress interface is assessed, and the flows for which the respective number is zero are assigned to a first group, while the flows for which the respective number is non-zero are assigned to a second group. The received packets that have been forwarded to the egress interface and belong to the flows in the first group are transmitted with a higher priority than the flows in the second group.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices related to low latency preemption. A device may divide a first PPDU into a plurality of segmented PPDUs. The device may insert a plurality of time gaps between the plurality of segmented PPDUs, wherein the plurality of time gaps enable preemptive opportunities by a low latency transmitter. The device may identify a preemption request from a low latency transmitter of the one or more station devices during a first time gap between a first segmented PPDU and a second segmented PPDU. The device may preempt the second segmented PPDU based on a preemption bit in order to allow the low latency transmitter to transmit its low latency data.

A method for utilizing quality of service information in a network with tunneled backhaul is disclosed, comprising: establishing a backhaul bearer at a base station with a first core network, the backhaul bearer established by a backhaul user equipment (UE) at the base station, the backhaul bearer having a single priority parameter, the backhaul bearer terminating at a first packet data network gateway in the first core network; establishing an encrypted internet protocol (IP) tunnel between the base station and a coordinating gateway in communication with the first core network and a second core network; facilitating, for at least one UE attached at the base station, establishment of a plurality of UE data bearers encapsulated in the secure IP tunnel, each with their own QCI; and transmitting prioritized data of the plurality of UE data bearers via the backhaul bearer and the coordinating gateway to the second core network.
