Disclosed embodiments are related to various Radio Equipment implementations based on the European Union Radio Equipment Directive. Embodiments include implementations for safety and health, electromagnetic compatibility, and the efficient use of the radio spectrum, and cyber security including, inter alia, privacy protection and protection against fraud. Furthermore, additional aspects cover interoperability, access to emergency services, and compliance regarding the combination of Radio Equipment and software. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Disclosed is an electronic device including a wireless communication circuit configured to support communication connections to one or multiple devices, at least one processor, and a memory which stores instructions causing, when executed, the at least one processor to identify whether a first communication connection to a second external device through the wireless communication circuit is disconnected, acquire, if disconnection of the first communication connection is identified, communication state information from a first external device connected through the wireless communication circuit, identify, based on the acquired communication state information, whether a second communication connection between the first external device and the second external device is disconnected, and operate in a loss occurrence mode for the second external device if disconnection of the second communication connection is identified.

Disclosed are embodiments for sidelink (SL) capability exchange via a PC5 link between first and second UEs for configuring inter-UE coordination (IUC). In one embodiment, a method entails generating a radio resource control (RRC) message for the second UE, the RRC message including information to identify supported IUC types of the first UE or provide an indication of which resource allocation mode is supported for IUC; signaling with a first SL unicast transmission to the second UE the RRC message; and receiving through a second SL unicast transmission from the second UE the SL capability of the second UE to configure IUC. Also disclosed are techniques for IUC with a UE configured for mode 1 (network-controlled) sidelink (SL) resource allocation.

Controlling wireless access to target devices by initiating, by a user device, wireless pairing with a target device. The user device collects, concurrent with the initiating, a wireless signal of at least the target device. One or more computing devices builds a profile for the user device based on the collected wireless signal. The one or more computing devices controls access of the user device to functionality of the target device based on the profile.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment or a base station may determine that a condition for entering a reduced monitoring state is satisfied, wherein the reduced monitoring state uses at least one of: a diminished radio frequency chain configuration, a diminished channel monitoring configuration, a restriction on receiving or transmitting a shared channel or a control channel, or a combination thereof; and communicate using the reduced monitoring state. Numerous other aspects are provided.
