摘要: An example system includes a distributed network having a first computer system communicatively coupled to a first set of network nodes, and a second computer system communicatively coupled to a second set of network nodes. The first computer system receives first data from a first network node representing a request for additional network resources; receives second data from the second computer system representing a first set of network resources available for sharing by a second network node; identifies at least a portion of the first set of network resources; transmits, to the first network node and the second computer system, first transaction data representing a sharing of at least the portion of the first set of network resources by the second network node with the first network node; and adds the first transaction data to a distributed ledger of the distributed network.

摘要: A network controller, a user equipment (UE) device, and associated methods for conducting intelligent enhanced multimedia broadcast multicast services (eMBMS). A network controller receives user preference information and location information from a plurality of UEs. The network controller selects one or more data packages to transmit using eMBMS in one or more broadcast regions based on the user preference information and the location information. The one or more data packages may comprise an updated machine learning model in a distributed learning application. The network controller provides an indication to a remote device to broadcast the one or more data packages in the respective one or more broadcast regions using eMBMS.

摘要: Methods and apparatus to support scheduled access control for an electronic lock are described herein. An initiating central wireless device obtains an ephemeral identity resolving key (IRK) to use in resolving an ephemeral resolvable private address (RPA) of a peripheral wireless device. The initiating central wireless device can subsequently connect securely to the peripheral wireless device in order to unlock an electronic lock controlled by the peripheral wireless device to gain access during a scheduled time period. The ephemeral IRK and ephemeral RPA can be used for a limited period of time and/or for a predetermined number of usages during the scheduled time period.

摘要: Techniques are described herein for effectuating a transaction by an intermediary. An example method can include receiving, from a second user device, a first request for a target item, the second user device being associated with the target item. A second request for first information associated with the target item can be transmitted to a third device based at least in part on the first request. The first information associated with the target item can be received from the third device, the first information including a first parameter describing the target item. The first parameter can be compared with a threshold parameter. A third request can be transmitted to the third device associated with the target item, a third request for the target item. A confirmation of the third request can be received.

摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are presented for utilizing a narrowband assisting network (NBAN) and a positioning assisting network (PAN) to assist in establishing and managing communications on a THz band wireless communication network. The THz network may be capable of transmitting/receiving with high bandwidth, but may be resource intensive and may be constrained to line-of-sight (LoS) communications. The NBAN and PAN may help to minimize the resources consumed by the THz network. The NBAN may identify a set of nodes of the THz network as candidates for establishing a connection with a user equipment (UE). The PAN may determine a position of each candidate relative to the UE, and may communicate the position to the respective candidate and to the UE, which may use the position information to expedite a beam alignment procedure. The NBAN may provide scheduling and other control signaling for the THz network.

摘要: An electronic device configures two or more virtual responders associated with different subsets of capabilities of a physical responder in the electronic device, where the physical responder comprises a radio-frequency (RF) transceiver and multiple antennas, and where a given virtual responder corresponds to the RF transceiver and a given antenna. Then, the electronic device performs, based at least in part on wirelessly communication with a second electronic device and using at least the virtual responders, measurements on wireless signals from the second electronic device to the electronic device, where the measurements correspond to a time of flight of the wireless signals. Next, the electronic device determines, based at least in part on the measurements, a range between the electronic device and the second electronic device, where the determination uses the measurements from different virtual responders to correct for an environmental condition and/or increase an accuracy of the determined range.

摘要: An electronic device that determines a transmission schedule is described. This electronic device may include an interface circuit that communicates with a recipient electronic device. During operation, the electronic device may receive a frame with scheduling-request information that is associated with the recipient electronic device. The scheduling-request information may include a buffer status report for persistent traffic, and the frame may be compatible with an IEEE 802.11 communication protocol. For example, the frame may include a scheduling-request management frame. Alternatively, the frame may include a data frame and the scheduling-request information may be included in a media access control (MAC) frame header, such as a high-efficiency (HE) variant high-throughput (HT) control header. Then, the electronic device may determine the transmission schedule based at least in part on the scheduling-request information.

摘要: Solutions for user equipment (UE) assisted privacy-aware data-driven network (NW) control. UEs, base stations, an aggregation and analysis system, and a data-driven NW control unit may coordinate and communicate with one another to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of a wireless communication network by implementing machine learning tools and exchanging information in a manner that enables the training, development, and use of models. Information of various levels of privacy may be exchanged, protected, anonymized, etc., to enable UE-assisted privacy-aware data-driven NW control while still protecting the privacy of individual users.
