Huawei Multi-Link Communication Method Patent Application US20260113150A1
Summary
Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. has published US Patent Application US20260113150A1 for a multi-link communication method. The application covers a receive end that processes data frames and BAR frames over multiple links, adjusts a scoreboard window's starting sequence number (WinStart) based on SSNs from all links, and processes received data frames using the adjusted WinStart. The five named inventors are Guogang Huang, Yuchen Guo, Ming Gan, Yunbo Li, and Yiqing Li. The application was filed December 18, 2025, under application number 19424750.
About this source
USPTO classification H04L covers transmission of digital information: network protocols, modulation schemes, wireless signal processing, coding, encryption in transit, and multiplexing. With 5G, 6G, and satellite internet driving new filings, H04L is one of the largest active patent classes. Every newly published application in H04L lands in this feed, around 215 a month. Applications publish 18 months after filing, so this feed reveals what MediaTek, Qualcomm, Ericsson, Samsung, Huawei, and dozens of smaller companies were working on in the prior year and a half. Watch this if you compete in networking hardware, advise telecoms on IP strategy, or scout acquisition targets in wireless infrastructure.
What changed
Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. has filed a patent application for multi-link communication methods covering how a receive end processes data and BAR frames across multiple links and adaptively adjusts the scoreboard window's starting sequence number (WinStart). The application identifies five inventors and specifies CPC classifications related to H04L link-layer protocols. Patent applications do not create immediate compliance obligations but establish priority dates for the claimed invention. Competitors developing multi-link aggregation technologies should monitor this filing to assess potential freedom-to-operate implications.

Abstract
A multi-link aggregation transmission method and a related apparatus. The method includes: a receive end receives at least one of a data frame and a BAR frame over a plurality of links between the receive end and a transmit end, where the plurality of links includes a first link. The receive end receives a block acknowledgment request BAR frame over the first link, where the BAR frame carries SSN_1 corresponding to the first link. The receive end adjusts, based on SSNs corresponding to all the links, a value of a current starting sequence number WinStart of a scoreboard window. The receive end processes, based on the adjusted WinStart, a data frame received over the plurality of links. The receive end can adaptively adjust the WinStart.
