Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for wireless communications. A base station and wireless device may communicate capability information associated with a wireless device. The capability information may include information indicating support for an Ethernet type packet data unit session or header parameter compression. An Ethernet type packet data unit session may be instantiated based on the capability information.

Embodiments of this application describe an in-situ flow detection-based packet processing method. After receiving a first packet encapsulated by using a first bearer protocol, a first node may obtain, based on the first packet, a second packet encapsulated by using a second bearer protocol. A first packet header of the first packet includes first in-situ flow detection information, and a packet header of the second packet also includes the first in-situ flow detection information. It can be learned that, when re-encapsulating the first packet by using the second bearer protocol, the first node does not remove the first in-situ flow detection information, but adds the first in-situ flow detection information to the packet encapsulated by using the second bearer protocol. Therefore, even if the first bearer protocol and the second bearer protocol are deployed in a detection domain, the first in-situ flow detection information is not removed due to re-encapsulation of the packet, and may be transmitted across the entire detection domain.

A method and system for demultiplexing packets of a message is provided.

The demultiplexing system receives packets of a message, identifies a sequence of message handlers for processing the message, identifies state information associated with the message for each message handler, and invokes the message handlers passing the message and the associated state information. The system identifies the message handlers based on the initial data type of the message and a target data type. The identified message handlers effect the conversion of the data to the target data type through various intermediate data types.

Systems and methods for neutral application programming interfaces are disclosed. In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a system for neutral application programming interfaces. The system may comprise a device. The device may be configured to receive a request. The request may comprise an outer payload and an inner payload. The device may be further configured to parse the outer payload based on a common definition of the outer payload. The device may be further configured to extract information of an action from the outer payload. The device may be further configured to parse the inner payload based on a definition of the action. The device may be further configured to process the action.

A distributed radio frequency communication system facilitates communication between a wireless terminal and a core network. The system includes a remote radio unit (RRU) coupled to at least one antenna to communicate with the wireless terminal. The RRU includes electronic circuitry to perform at least a first portion of a first-level protocol of a radio access network (RAN) for communicating between the wireless terminal and the core network. The system also includes a baseband unit (BBU) coupled to the core network, and configured to perform at least a second-level protocol of the RAN. A fronthaul link is coupled to the BBU and the RRU. The fronthaul link utilizes an adaptive fronthaul protocol for communication between the BBU and the RRU. The adaptive fronthaul protocol has provisions for adapting to conditions of the fronthaul link and radio network by changing the way data is communicated over the fronthaul link.

The present disclosure relates to multi-MAC controllers and single PHY systems and methods. An example method may include receiving, at a remote PHY device and from a first MAC device located at a headend of a network, a first data packet, including a first identifier. The example method may also include determining, by the remote PHY device and using the first identifier included in the first data packet, a first output of the PHY device onto which to transmit the first data packet, the first output including a first group of customer devices. The example method may also include receiving, at the remote PHY device and from a second MAC device located at the headend, a second data packet, including a second identifier. The example method may also include determining, by the remote PHY device and using the second identifier included in the second data packet, a second output of the PHY device onto which to transmit the second data packet, the second output including a second group of customer devices.

A communication device, processing device or method constructs M RLC PDUs including M RLC SDUs, respectively, where M is larger than 1; submits, for a transmission opportunity, only L RLC PDUs for L RLC SDUs with lowest L SNs among the M RLC PDUs to a MAC layer, where L<M and the L RLC PDUs include a first RLC PDU having a poll to trigger status reporting at a receiving device; transmits the L RLC PDUs to the receiving device; constructs a second RLC PDU including a second RLC SDU having a highest SN among SNs of RLC SDUs submitted to the MAC layer, when the poll retransmission timer started upon submitting the first RLC PDU having the poll expires and no new RLC SDU or RLC SDU segment can be transmitted.
