One or more wireless communication systems may coexist at about the same geographical location and be configured to access the same radio channel. The coexistence of these systems may cause collisions and degrade throughput. Although countermeasures, such as reserving airtime with a resource assignment, may be taken to avoid collisions, these countermeasures are degrading throughput as well. The reserved airtime is reduced by adding a start time to the resource assignment. The reduced airtime may be used by others for performing a transmission, thus increasing the throughput and efficiency of the access to the radio channel.

Provided are an HQoS scheduling method and device. A received uplink data packet is encapsulated and stored in a queue in uplink direction, and an uplink queue scheduling component is requested to perform scheduling. In this manner, HQoS scheduling in the uplink direction is implemented, and a personalized demand of a user can be met by scheduling uplink data, to carry out more flexible function customization. According to the method and device, the data packet may be further sent to a downlink direction after the HQoS scheduling in the uplink direction is completed, and the HQoS scheduling can be performed on the data in the downlink direction, so that the HQoS scheduling is respectively performed on the data in both the uplink direction and the downlink direction; in this manner, the real bidirectional HQoS scheduling control is implemented, and QoS of the user service can be guaranteed in both directions.

Processing packets in a system that includes a plurality of interconnected processing cores is described. The processing includes receiving packets into one or more queues, associating at least some nodes in a hierarchy of nodes with at least one of the queues, and at least some of the nodes with a rate, mapping a set of one or more nodes to a processor core based on a level in the hierarchy of the nodes in the set and at least one rate associated with a node not in the set, and processing the packets in the mapped processor cores according to the hierarchy.

Inter-cell interference can be reduced by re-assigning uplink scheduling responsibilities for a user equipment (UE) from a controller associated with a serving access point (AP) to a controller associated with a neighboring AP, as the controller associated with the neighboring AP may have better access to channel information corresponding to interference experienced by the neighboring AP as a result of uplink transmissions from the UE. After the re-assignment, the controller associated with the neighboring AP may independently schedule an uplink transmission parameter (e.g., a transmit power level, a modulation coding scheme level and/or a precoder) of the UE in a manner that mitigates inter-cell-interference in the neighboring cell.

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.

In one embodiment, a method is disclosed in which a device identifies a set of data stream rates for a plurality of data streams. A Huffman tree is constructed for data transmission time slots based on the set of data stream rates. A number of time slots assigned to a parent node in the tree are determined and evenly distributed to child nodes of the parent node, to assign the time slots to the data streams.

Embodiments of the invention disclose a data transmission method, a device, and a computer storage medium to perform data transmission. A congestion status of a transmission port is obtained by a first device. The transmission port is a communications port used by the first device when a second device transmits data to the first device. The congestion status is used to indicate whether data congestion occurs on the transmission port. Indication information is sent to the second device when a mode switching condition is met. 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.
