Introduction
Limin Liu is a notable inventor based in Simi Valley, California. He has made significant contributions to the field of network testing through his innovative patents. With a total of 2 patents, Liu's work focuses on enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of network traffic generation.
Latest Patents
Liu's latest patents include a "Traffic generator with priority flow control." This invention discloses methods and computer-readable storage media for testing a network. A scheduler determines a sequence of packets to be transmitted, with each packet belonging to one of several flow control groups. The packet generator generates packets in the determined sequence and outputs completed packets for transmission over a network under test. The design includes a first processing engine and a last processing engine configured as a pipeline to perform sequential stages of the packet generation process. Additionally, it features a first bank of first-in-first-out (FIFO) queues corresponding to the flow control groups.
Another patent by Liu is also titled "Traffic generator with priority flow control." This invention describes port units, methods, and computer-readable storage media for testing a network. The traffic generator generates and transmits test traffic over a network under test, which includes multiple interleaved packet streams. Each traffic stream is associated with one of the flow control groups. The traffic receiver receives flow control packets from the network under test, and the traffic generator is designed to stop transmission of all packet streams associated with paused flow control groups when a flow control packet is received.
