The disclosure provides a method of operating a communication network. The method includes receiving input data related to a state of the communication network and operation of the communication network. The method then includes determining a policy for the communication network based on the input data. The policy is a set of features for forming a plurality of communication links in the communication network over a time interval. The plurality of communication links provides one or more paths through the communication network. Determining the policy is based at least in part on utility values of previous policies. The utility values of previous policies are derived using simulation and/or real-world implementation of the previous policies. The communication network is then operated to implement the policy in the time interval.

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a communication system and a terminal capable of predicting future communication quality to respond to change in communication quality due to environmental fluctuation.

A system according to the present disclosure includes a surrounding environment information collection unit that acquires surrounding environment information of a communication device performing wireless communication, an object determination unit that uses the surrounding environment information to generate object state information, an input sequence creation unit that classifies the object state information into communication quality prediction categories and generates an input sequence data set, and a communication quality prediction unit that inputs the input sequence data set generated by the input sequence creation unit to a communication quality prediction model obtained by learning a relationship between the object state information including at least one of the type, position, speed, and state of the object and the communication quality prediction category and the communication quality through machine learning, and predicts a current or future communication quality of the communication device.

The disclosure relates to an apparatus comprising means for: receiving a request from an operator to instantiate a closed loop for managing a communication system; identifying closed loop components based on the request; and instantiating a closed loop for managing a communication system with the closed looped components.

A safety system and a method for localizing at least one object having a control and evaluation unit have at least one radio location system. The radio location system has at least three arranged radio stations. Position data of the object can be determined by means of the radio location system and can be transmitted to the control and evaluation unit. At least three radio transponders are arranged at the object, each arranged spaced apart from one another and the three radio transponders form different points on a plane and unambiguously define the plane in space. The control and evaluation unit is configured to compare the position data of the radio transponders and to form checked position data of the object. The control and evaluation unit is configured to form orientation data of the object from the position data of the radio transponders.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described to support estimation of a transmission quality imbalance between a set of antennas of a first user equipment (UE). The first UE may use the estimated transmission quality imbalance to determine a transmission diversity scheme that may decrease the transmission quality imbalance. The first UE may determine the transmission quality imbalance between the set of antennas by estimating a reception quality imbalance between the set of antennas. The first UE may estimate the reception quality imbalance for multiple subsets of a time period and may combine the reception quality imbalance estimations for the multiple subsets. The combined reception quality imbalance estimations may represent the transmission quality imbalance between the set of antennas, which may be used to determine a transmission diversity scheme for communicating a transmission to a second UE or a base station.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive one or more reference signals associated with a downlink communication. The UE may transmit an indication of a preferred demodulation reference signal (DMRS) configuration to be used for the downlink communication, the preferred DMRS configuration based at least in part on the one or more reference signals and a transmission mode associated with the preferred DMRS configuration. Numerous other aspects are described.

A method of interference measurement includes performing interference measurement with interference measurement resource. The interference measurement resource may be a subset of resources for reference signal (RS). Measurements for the RS in the NR system are improved.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory, machine-readable media may facilitate multi-environment cellular network slice testing. A cloud-based test environment may be created and may include multiple cellular network components executed on a cloud-based computing platform. One or more slice testing requests may be received from a service provider system. Responsive to the one or more slice testing requests, one or more network slices may be created, where the one or more network slices may correspond to one or more portions of a cellular network. Slice testing may be performed with the one or more network slices within the cloud-based test environment. Results of the slice testing using the one or more network slices may be obtained.
