Correlating devices and clients across addresses may be provided. A first address associated with a client device may be received. When the client device is not connected to a network, first location data associated with the first address may be obtained using a passive technique. A second address and second location data associated with the second address may then be obtained using an active technique. It may then be determined that the first location data and the second location data correlate. In response to determining that the first location data and the second location data correlate, it may be determined that the client device has changed from the first address to the second address.

Correcting for antennae spatial distortions in Radio Frequency (RF) localization may be provided. A plurality of actual locations associated with a plurality of Access Point (APs) may be received. Then a plurality of signal strengths associated with the plurality of APs may be received. Based on the plurality of signal strengths, a model may be created that models a plurality of inference errors respectively corresponding to the plurality of APs between a plurality of inferred locations respectively corresponding to the plurality of APs and the plurality of actual locations. The model may then be used in determining a location of a device.

Multi-User Multiple Input, Multiple Output (MU-MIMO) data transmissions are provided with a forward-predictive precoding matrix to mitigate the effects of a change in a state of a communication channel. First and second soundings are performed, at first and second times, to a receive antenna over a channel and, responsive to each of the soundings, first and second Channel State Information (CSI) are received. Based on the first and second CSI, a change in a state of the channel over a time period between the first and second time is determined. Based on the change in the state of the channel, a forward-predictive channel state matrix and/or a forward-predictive precoding matrix are determined that reflect a state of the channel at a future time and that are consistent with the determined change in the state over the time period. The forward-predictive precoding matrix is applied to a data transmission.

A method for routing in a quantum network is provided. The method may include receiving parameters including a fidelity with coherence decay time and an entanglement generation rate for each quantum node in a mesh quantum network by a controller, the controller being configured to communicate with each quantum node of a plurality of quantum nodes in the mesh quantum network. Each quantum node includes a quantum memory and a processor. The method may also include analyzing the fidelity with coherence decay time and the entanglement generation rate to yield a determination of a path fidelity with a path coherence decay time and a path entanglement generation rate between at least one pair of quantum nodes. The method may further include, based on the determination, selecting a quantum communication path from a source node to a destination node.

In one embodiment, a method for improving content delivery for a user equipment (UE) is implemented on a computing device and includes: receiving a request from an application layer on the UE, determining whether said request is an ICN-based request using Information Centric Networking (ICN) transport protocol or an IP-based request using Internet Protocol (IP) transport protocol, and for each ICN-based request according to the determining: forwarding the ICN-based request to an ICN function on the UE, and compressing ICN headers in the ICN-based request using robust header (RoHC) compression.

A communication method uses a distributed cell-free network of spatially independent service antennas. According to the method, pilot sequences are allocated to a user population of access terminals by an allocation procedure that imposes local relative orthogonality of pilot sequences. Channel coefficients for access terminals are determined by measuring allocated pilot sequences as received by each of the service antennas. In embodiments of the invention, the determination of channel coefficients is performed independently and the resulting channel coefficients are locally stored at the respective service antennas. At each service antenna, a processor independently uses locally stored channel coefficients to precode forward link signals or to at least partially decode reverse link signals.
