Embodiments may include methods, systems, and apparatuses for integrating a first radio access technology and a second radio access technology in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). The embodiments may include: gathering, by the WTRU, one or more metrics related to uplink/downlink transmissions; determining, based on the one or more metrics, that an amount of data from the first radio access technology should be offloaded to the second radio access technology; transmitting a first portion of the data to a base station using the first radio access technology; and transmitting a second portion of the data to a wireless local access network (WLAN) access point (AP) using the second radio access technology, wherein the WLAN AP is connected to the base station through an interface.

A network device includes an antenna connected to an RF chip and a processor coupled to an Ethernet port, the RF chip, a program memory, a packet buffer memory, a pointer buffer memory, and a program memory. The program memory contains instruction that, when executed by the processor, cause a plurality of packets received by the antenna and the RF chip in a first order to be stored in the packet buffer memory in such order, cause a pointer associated with each one of the plurality of packets to be stored in the pointer buffer memory, cause the pointers stored in the pointer buffer memory to be placed in a second order in accordance with a timestamp that is included with each packet, cause the packets stored in the packet buffer memory to be passed along to the Ethernet port in accordance with the sorted pointer to each packet.

The present disclosure provides a method for forwarding to a Transport Control Protocol (TCP) receiver a TCP transmission sent from a TCP sender. The method includes: determining Time Division Duplex (TDD) reconfiguration time required for a TDD reconfiguration; comparing the TDD reconfiguration time with a predetermined threshold; suspending the forwarding of the TCP transmission to the TCP receiver during the TDD reconfiguration time if the TDD reconfiguration time is larger than the predetermined threshold; and resuming the suspended forwarding of the TCP transmission after the TDD reconfiguration time has lapsed. The present disclosure also provides a method for transmitting a TCP transmission to a TCP receiver, a base station and a user equipment.

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.

Disclosed are a traffic control method, a traffic control apparatus and a server. In some embodiments, the method includes: determining, by a device on a network side, a first queue delay based on transceiving time of a communication data packet currently received from a user terminal and transceiving time of a communication data packet received from the user terminal last time; adjusting a first quality of service parameter based on the first queue delay, a second queue delay stored by the device on the network side and a reception data volume of the device on the network side, to obtain a second quality of service parameter; and transmitting the second quality of service parameter to the user terminal, and the user terminal transmits subsequent communication data packets based on the second quality of service parameter.

A system for scheduling prioritized traffic in a scrambled and coded multiple access (SCMA) system multiple terminals and a gateway. Each terminal is configured to receive packets from user devices and place the packets on various input queues. The packets are en-queued onto a plurality of output queues based on priority or service class. The terminal is further configured to detect one or more available SCMA slots within a frame of a communication system, and de-queue packets from the highest priority output queue onto the frame via one or more SCMA bursts. The terminal includes transceiver for transmitting/receiving frames of the communication system to/from the gateway. The terminals autonomously transmit SCMA bursts on a first channel, and transmit TDMA bursts on a second channel based on assigned timings received from the gateway.

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to systems and methods for queuing and sending messages to recipients according to historical latency values associated with each recipient. In some embodiments, a plurality of messages are received, each message including a network address of a recipient. The messages are sent to the recipients by threads that remain active (i.e., cannot be used to send another message) until confirmation responses are received from the recipients. Latency times are measured between when the messages were sent and when the confirmation responses were received. The latency times may be used to assign future messages to queues designated by certain latency ranges.

Managing transaction data during times of low network connectivity by organizing billing information for prioritized processing during periods of higher network connectivity. During low connectivity events, billing information is organized based, at least in part, on a combination of age and revenue to communicate important billing information upon reconnection.

A method operates a network, wherein multiple clients are connected to a server for accessing an application that is provided or running on the server. The application is tunneled within one or more corresponding flows between the clients and the server. A device for per flow scheduling of the flows prioritizes the flows based on at least one of application characteristics, application requirements, flow characteristics or flow requirements. The prioritizing by the device takes into consideration a change or a variation, over time, of at least one of an application characteristic, an application requirement, a flow characteristic or a flow requirement.
