IPC Code(s): H04W28/06, H04W4/06, H04W40/02, H04W60/00

CPC Code(s): H04W28/06



Abstract: in one embodiment, an intermediate device in a backhaul mesh for a wireless network receives a registration from an access point of the wireless network in communication with a mobile system. the intermediate device receives a packet that is multicast by a gateway into the backhaul mesh and destined for the mobile system. the intermediate device makes, based on the registration, a determination that the packet should be sent to the access point. the intermediate device sends the packet to the access point for transmittal to the mobile system.

Inventor(s): Srinath GUNDAVELLI of San Jose CA (US) for cisco technology, inc., Abhishek DHAMMAWAT of San Jose CA (US) for cisco technology, inc., Shree Narasimha MURTHY of San Jose CA (US) for cisco technology, inc., Arun G. KHANNA of Sunnyvale CA (US) for cisco technology, inc.

IPC Code(s): H04W28/08, H04L47/24

CPC Code(s): H04W28/0992



Abstract: service chain integration with a wireless local area network (wlan) may be provided. a computing device may send metadata from a wireless network to a service function (sf) selected from one of a plurality of sfs. then the computing device may receive a control trigger from the sf in response to the metadata. the computing device may then perform a service action on the wireless network in response to the control trigger.


20240349173. SUCCESSIVE INTERFERENCE MITIGATION IN AUTOMATED FREQUENCY COORDINATION (AFC)_simplified_abstract_(cisco technology, inc.)

Inventor(s): Sachin D. WAKUDKAR of St-Sulpice (CH) for cisco technology, inc., Shailender POTHARAJU of Fremont CA (US) for cisco technology, inc., Evgeny YANKEVICH of Beachwood OH (US) for cisco technology, inc., Ardalan ALIZADEH of Milpitas CA (US) for cisco technology, inc.

IPC Code(s): H04W48/16, H04W48/08, H04W72/0453

CPC Code(s): H04W48/16



Abstract: successive interference mitigation in automated frequency coordination (afc) may be provided. a plurality of messages may be received from a respective plurality of access points (aps). each of the plurality of messages may indicate a respective channel used by a respective one of the plurality of aps associated with the message. an indication may be received that an interference to noise (i/n) ratio is above a predetermined threshold in a fixed service (fs) channel associated with an fs. at least one of the plurality of aps may be identified as a cause of the i/n ratio being above the predetermined threshold in the fs channel based on a channel used by the identified at least one of the plurality of aps and the fs channel. an action may be taken against the identified at least one of the plurality of aps to lower the i/n ratio.


20240349234. TRANSMISSION (TX) POWER VARIATION MITIGATION FOR RECEIVED STRENGTH OF SIGNAL INDICATOR (RSSI) BASED LOCATION DETERMINATION_simplified_abstract_(cisco technology, inc.)

Inventor(s): Matthew Aaron SILVERMAN of Shaker Heights OH (US) for cisco technology, inc., Brian D. HART of Sunnyvale CA (US) for cisco technology, inc., Jonathan Matthew SWARTZ of Lithia FL (US) for cisco technology, inc.

IPC Code(s): H04W64/00, G01S11/06, H04B17/318

CPC Code(s): H04W64/003



Abstract: transmission (tx) power variation mitigation for received strength of signal indicator (rssi) location may be provided. rssi data for a station may be received from a plurality of access points (aps). the rssi data may include a rssi value determined from a block acknowledgement (ba) packet and a starting sequence number (ssn) and a bitmap of the ba packet. the plurality of aps may be clustered into one or more clusters based on a combination of the ssn and the bitmap. one or more aps having a same combination of the ssn and the bitmap are clustered into one cluster. a probable location of the station may be determined in each of the one or more clusters based on rssi values received from the one or more aps of each of the one or more clusters. a final location of the station may be determined based on merging probable locations from the one or more clusters.
