Methods for providing a layer-2 data stack solution in a data plane and associated devices are provided. In some embodiments, the method includes (i) determining, among a plurality of data stack solutions that are selectable, which layer-2 data stack solution is selected and (ii) causing, according to the selected layer-2 data stack solution, the layer-2 micro controller to intervene with a data plane hardware module that is configured to implement a specific layer-2 data stack function. Each of the plurality of data stack solutions represents a distinctive intervening configuration of a layer-2 micro controller. The layer-2 micro controller is coupled to a number of data plane hardware modules that are configured to implement different layer-2 data stack functions. The intervening configuration of the layer-2 micro controller is indicative of a level of control of the layer-2 micro controller over the data plane hardware modules.

Modular 5G UE layer-2 data stack solutions for high throughput and low latency data transfer

An apparatus for data packet processing can include a plurality of microcontrollers configured to perform dedicated layer-two circuit control functions. The plurality of microcontrollers can be configured to concurrently retrieve data from a set of common logical channels. The dedicated layer-two circuit control functions can include logical channel prioritization. The apparatus can also include a data processing layer-two circuit configured to perform data processing on the set of common logical channels based on commands received from the plurality of microcontrollers. The plurality of microcontrollers can be configured to receive uplink grants from a plurality of component carriers, to perform scheduling of the data based on the uplink grants, and to instruct the data processing layer-two circuit to retrieve the data responsive to the uplink grants.

Uplink medium access control token scheduling for multiple-carrier packet data transmission

Embodiments of apparatuses and methods for uplink data transmission preparation and a baseband chip for packet preparation for uplink transmission are disclosed. In an example, a method for packet preparation for uplink transmission can include determining, by a user equipment, a quality of service identifier associated with a quality of service flow. The method can also include mapping, by the user equipment, the quality of service identifier to a group token level. The method can further include processing, by the user equipment, the quality of service flow in accordance with the group token level.

Mini-token bucket for uplink transmission

Methods for managing a scheduling service includes (i) determining a score for each of multiple service grants from multiple cells based on a scoring function, wherein the scoring function includes one or more radio channel conditions associated with the multiple service grants; (ii) prioritizing the multiple service grants based on the determined scores; and (iii) assigning scheduling opportunities to the multiple service grants based on the determined scores of the multiple grant services from the multiple cells in a geometric decreasing manner. In the geometric decreasing manner, packets of a low priority service grant of the multiple service grants are transmitted once every two packets of a high priority service grant of the multiple service grants.

Methods and devices for managing scheduling service, and storage medium

Embodiments of apparatus and method for random access are disclosed. In an example, a user equipment can include at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code. The at least one memory and the computer program code can be configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the user equipment at least to send a trigger message and unique identifier in a first message from the user equipment to a network node. The at least one memory and the computer program code can also be configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the user equipment at least to receive an acknowledgement at the user equipment in a second message from the network node using the user equipment's unique identifier. Contention resolution for the user equipment can be concluded with only the first message and the second message.

Contention resolution in wireless communication systems

A method includes: receiving, at a first layer of a protocol stack, multiple code blocks from a base station, the multiple code blocks is a portion of a transport block and is associated with an error rate; transmitting, to a second layer of the protocol stack, the multiple code blocks; and determining, at the second layer and based on the error rate, whether to (1) store the multiple code blocks in memory or (2) process the multiple code blocks. A method for saving power in a physical (PHY) layer-to-medium access (MAC) layer interface and a network device, and a system are also provided.

Power saving techniques for layer-to-layer interface

A wireless multimode (MM) device permits different radio access technologies (RAT) to interoperate dynamically with different positioning protocols (PP) by providing a MM Location Protocol Manager (MLM) that is independent of underlying transport mechanisms.
