One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for implementing a publish and subscribe communication system utilizing a load balancer and task schedulers are provided. Subscription requests are received from subscribers for subscribing to a topic published by a publisher. An external subscription list is maintained to track communication address information of the subscribers. A number of task schedulers are created based upon a count of subscribers within the external subscription list. The subscribers are assigned to the task schedulers such that a number of subscribers assigned to a task scheduler is limited according to a subscriber assignment limit. In response to the publisher creating data to publish to the topic, the task schedulers are controlled to use the communication address information to directly transfer data of the topic to the subscribers assigned to the task schedulers.

Publish and subscribe communication system

A device may determine traffic information of a user equipment (UE) operating in a first operating mode. The first operating mode may be associated with the UE monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), via a first bandwidth part (BWP), according to a first rate. The device may determine, based on the traffic information, that the UE is to operate in a different operating mode including one of: a second operating mode associated with monitoring the PDCCH, via the first BWP, according to a second rate exceeding the first rate, a third operating mode associated with monitoring the PDCCH, via a second BWP less than the first BWP, according to the second rate, or a fourth operating mode associated with monitoring the PDCCH, via the second BWP, according to the first rate. The device may cause the UE to transition to the different operating mode.

Systems and methods for transitioning between operating modes associated with bandwidth parts for efficient battery consumption

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for implementing a publish and subscribe communication system are provided. A topic identifier comprising publisher and subscriber information and a topic data type of a topic may be generated. The topic identifier and communication address information associated with the topic may be maintained at an external broker. The communication information may be provided from the external broker to a requestor in response to an inquiry regarding the topic identifier. Access to data published to the topic may be provided such that a publisher of the topic directly transfers data of the topic to a subscriber of the topic.

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods are provided. In an example, a method includes instantiating a first user equipment (UE) module on a first computing device and instantiating a second UE module on a second computing device connected to the first computing device by a wired network. A first base station (BS) module associated with the first UE module is instantiated on a third computing device coupled to the wired network and a second BS module associated with the second UE module is instantiated on a fourth computing device coupled to the wired network. A first resource allocation map is sent from the first BS module to the second BS module. An interference metric is generated based on the first resource allocation map. A data transmission between the second UE module and the second BS module is modulated based on the interference metric.

Systems and methods for simulating wireless interference in a wired telecommunications network

The present invention provides a method that may be used for billing for quality of service applications. The method includes determining at least one parameter indicative of resource usage of at least one first quality of service application by comparing at least one resource used by the first quality of service application(s) to at least one resource used by a second quality of service application. The method also includes providing information indicative of at least one cost associated with the first quality of service application(s) based on the comparison and at least one cost associated with the second quality of service application.

Billing based on equivalent quality of service units

This relates to a method and system for channel element allocation for wireless systems. More particularly, the method and system are directed to channel element allocation based on voice call equivalence, bit load, and call quantum weight for multimedia wireless systems (e.g. 3g UMTS systems).

Method and system for channel element allocation for wireless systems

An apparatus, method and system are illustrated which provide a media access control polling protocol, using two types of polls, for packet data transmission in the uplink direction, in fixed wireless communication systems. The preferred system embodiment includes a plurality of subscriber units having transceivers for wireless communication, a base station having a transceiver for wireless communication with the plurality of subscriber units, and a data interface unit (DIU) operatively coupled to the base station through a network access controller. The DIU transmits a first poll, which authorizes transmission of a first predetermined amount of data, referred to as a standard allocation, for prompt throughput of small messages, such as acknowledgements. For subscriber units having additional data for transmission, the DIU transmits a second poll on a distinct or separate subchannel, which authorizes transmission of a second predetermined amount of data, referred to as an extended allocation, for transmission of larger blocks of data which are less delay-sensitive. In addition, power measurement is performed on all poll responses, to allow for transmission power level changes prior to and during data transmission, for greater data throughput.
