Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a network node may obtain an erroneous packet from a first communication device. The network node may output an indication of bit error rate information, based on the erroneous packet, to a second communication device to facilitate error mitigation at the second communication device. Numerous other aspects are described.

Disclosed are a method and apparatus for measuring wireless performance of a receiver of a wireless terminal, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium. The method includes the following. A measured signal of a receiver to be measured is determined. Measured signals of other receivers except the receiver to be measured are zero. Multiple transmitted signals are determined based on the measured signals. The multiple transmitted signals are transmitted through multiple measurement antennas. When a bit error rate of the receiver to be measured does not equal a preset bit error rate, the measured signal is adjusted, determining the multiple transmitted signals based on the updated measured signal. When the bit error rate equals the preset error rate, a power of the measured signal is determined as the radiant sensitivity of the receiver to be measured.

A communication brokering device receives, from a first device, a measurement of at least one of a bit-error-rate (BER) or a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) associated with receipt of a transmission at the first device. The communication brokering device determines whether the first device is vulnerable to message interception or eavesdropping based on the measurement of the at least one of the BER or the SNR. The communication brokering device controls communications between at least one second device and the first device based on the determination of whether the first device is vulnerable to message interception or eavesdropping.

A network device determines radio frequency (RF) conditions at a first endpoint and a second endpoint of a call or session. The network device determines optimum first codec parameters for the determined RF conditions at the first endpoint of the call or session, and determines optimum second codec parameters for the determined RF conditions at the second endpoint of the call or session. The network device sends the first codec parameters to the first endpoint for altering operation of a first codec at a first device at the first endpoint. The network device sends the second codec parameters to the second endpoint for altering operation of a second codec at a second device at the second endpoint.

Methods for the distributed reception of receivers without significantly increasing the performance requirements of the system. In particular, this object is achieved by a method which is able to strongly improve the quality of the individual samples and thus of the signal emitted by the network in a receiver network with low complexity, without requiring a central coordinator, by means of a continuous, receiver-internal, independent combination of the received data through separate antennas, or which is able to increase the spatial coverage per receiver while maintaining the same quality of wireless transmission rates per microphone, as well as realize every scenario lying in between these extremes.
