The exemplary embodiments describe devices, systems and methods for adaptive uplink (UL) timing adjustment for beam switching. A user equipment (UE) may perform a beam switch from a first beam to a second beam, determine a timing offset associated with the second beam and apply an uplink (UL) timing adjustment based on the timing offset associated with the second beam. In some embodiments, the timing offset may be determined based on information received after the beam switch. In other embodiments, the timing offset may be determined based on information receive prior to the beam switch.

A delta configuration is signaled for handover of a wireless communication device (e.g., a user equipment, UE) from a first form of connectivity to a second form of connectivity. For example, a UE with master cell group (MCG) connectivity may be handed-over to multiple radio access technology-dual connectivity (MR-DC). In some examples, a UE with standalone (SA) connectivity may be handed-over to non-standalone (NSA) connectivity (e.g., dual connectivity). In conjunction with this handover the UE may be signaled as to whether the UE is to reuse a configuration from the first connectivity mode during the second connectivity mode.

Disclosed is a virtual wireless base station that can dynamically scale its capacity to meet changes in demand for connectivity. The virtual wireless base station includes a plurality of virtual baseband modules, a plurality of interface/router modules, an orchestrator module and a fabric mapper module. Each of the plurality of virtual baseband modules is coupled to the interface/router modules by a low latency switch fabric. The orchestrator determines current and near future demand for connectivity within the virtual wireless base station and either instantiates and connects new virtual baseband processors to meet a rise in demand, or shuts down underutilized virtual baseband processors in case of insufficient demand.

The disclosure relates to a method and device for evaluating the quality of a channel operable by a WiFi access point for establishing a WiFi connection with a communication device. The method is implemented by the communication device, which is already connected to the access point on a given channel, called a current channel, within a predetermined WiFi frequency band. The method includes a first phase for computing a score representative of a channel quality for at least one WiFi channel, called a scanned channel, within the predetermined WiFi frequency band, the first phase including at least one iteration of: obtaining the scanned channel bandwidth and a maximum effective isotropic radiated power associated with the scanned channel; determining a number of neighboring access points operating in the scanned channel; estimating a neighbor airtime occupancy for the scanned channel; and computing a score for the scanned channel, as a function of the obtained bandwidth, the obtained maximum effective isotropic radiated power, the determined number of neighboring access points, and the estimated neighbor airtime occupancy.
