Patent number: 11949434Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. An encoding device (e.g., a user equipment (UE) or a base station) may divide one or more data units (e.g., packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) protocol data units (PDU)) into a set of data blocks. The encoding device may encode the set of data blocks using a fountain code and may generate a set of data units (e.g., radio link control (RLC) PDUs) based on encoding the set of data blocks using the fountain code. The UE may allocate a first subset of the set of data units to a first carrier and a second subset of the set of data units to a second carrier and may transmit the first subset over the first carrier and the second subset over the second carrier.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2019Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Changlong Xu, Tao Luo, Hao Xu

Patent number: 9661358Abstract: A system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including sending a primary multicast video stream and a secondary multicast video stream to a media device. The secondary multicast video stream is limited to intra-coded frames (I-frames) extracted from the primary multicast video stream. Transmission of each intra-coded frame (I-frame) of the secondary multicast video stream is delayed with respect to transmission of a corresponding I-frame of the primary multicast video stream. The delay is based on an amount of writing time to satisfy a buffer threshold of a video content buffer at the media device to prevent a noticeable time shift of video displayed by the media device when the media device switches from outputting the secondary multicast video stream to outputting the primary multicast video stream.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2014Date of Patent: May 23, 2017Assignee: AT&T INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY I, L.P.Inventors: Kadangode Ramakrishnan, Charles Robert Kalmanek, Jr., Robert Duncan Doverspike, William C.
