The present invention relates to a wireless communication terminal and a wireless communication method for efficiently scheduling uplink multi-user transmission.

To this end, provided are a base wireless communication terminal, including: a transceiver configured to transmit and receive a wireless signal; and a processor configured to control an operation of the transceiver, wherein the processor selects an access category for transmitting a trigger frame which solicits an uplink multi-user transmission, performs a backoff procedure for transmitting the trigger frame based on the selected access category, and transmits the trigger frame when a backoff counter of the backoff procedure expires and a wireless communication method using the same.

A controller of a network, including routers to forward flows of packets originated at senders to receivers along distinct network paths each including multiple links, such that the flows merge at a common link that imposes a traffic bottleneck on the flows, receives from one or more of the routers router reports that each indicate an aggregate packet loss that represents an aggregate of packet losses experienced by each of the flows at the common link. The controller sends to the senders aggregate loss reports each including the aggregate packet loss so that the senders have common packet loss information for the common link on which to base decisions as to whether to switch from delay-based to loss-based congestion control modes when implementing dual-mode congestion control of the flows. In lieu of the controller, another example employs in-band router messages populated with packet losses by the routers the messages traverse.

This application describes a network device, a controller, a queue management method, and a traffic management chip. The method may be applied to a traffic management chip that uses an HQoS technology, and can include receiving a queue management instruction sent by a controller, where the queue management instruction includes an identifier of a first scheduler and an identifier of a first queue, and the first scheduler is one of multiple first-level schedulers. The method may also include controlling, according to the queue management instruction, scheduling of the first queue by the first scheduler, where a queue scheduled by the first scheduler belongs to a queue resource pool of the TM chip, and the queue resource pool includes at least one to-be-allocated queue. In this application, decoupling between queue allocation and the first-level schedulers is implemented, flexibility of queue allocation is improved, and utilization of queue resources is improved.

A resource-access management system detects whether a user is authorized to access resources. The system may include a user device being configured to include a sensor that detects sensor data associated with the user. Further, the system includes a client qualification engine that determines whether or not a client is authorized to access the resources by comparing the sensor data with a plurality of patterns for evaluating whether or not the user is an authorized user. User scores are generated based on the compared sensor data and the plurality of patterns. Further, a composite score corresponding to the user is generated using the sensor data, plurality of patterns, and one or more additional criteria. Whether the user is granted access to the resources, presented with unauthorized user tests, or blocked from access to the resources depends on the composite score and threshold values.

A communication system may be configured to transmit information from one or more information sources to a plurality of users over limited capacity media while enforcing one or more Quality of Service policies, such as maximum information rate (MIR) policies. Methods are presented herein for enforcing maximum information rate on two or more levels in a hierarchal and extendable manner, for at least the purposes of maximizing utilization of available capacity over said media and of fair distributing said capacity between all users. Also presented herein is a method for estimating load over said media.

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a data transmission method, a device, and a computer storage medium, where the method includes: obtaining, by a first device, a congestion status of a transmission port, where the transmission port is a communications port used by the first device when a second device transmits data to the first device, and the congestion status is used to indicate whether data congestion occurs on the transmission port; and sending indication information to the second device when a mode switching condition is met, where the indication information is used to instruct the second device to switch a transmission mode used when the second device transmits the data, so that the second device transmits the data to the first device in a switched transmission mode, and the mode switching condition is associated with the congestion status of the transmission port.

Embodiments provide a method for transmitting a service stream in a flexible Ethernet and an apparatus. The method includes: obtaining a to-be-transmitted service stream, where the service stream is to be transmitted by using a target virtual connection supported by a physical connection group between a transmit end and a receive end, the physical connection group includes multiple physical connections and supports at least one virtual connection, and the target virtual connection is any one of the at least one virtual connection; determining, from total bandwidth resources of the multiple physical connections and according to timeslot configuration tables used by the multiple physical connections, a timeslot bandwidth resource that belongs to the target virtual connection; and transmitting the service stream to the receive end by using the timeslot bandwidth resource that belongs to the target virtual connection.
