A packet delay budget (“PDB”) improves quality of service (“QoS”) by providing an accurate delay of packets over a network. PDB includes an access network PDB (“AN PDB”) and a core network PDB (“CN PDB”). Because the PDB can change based on network load, the PDB value is more accurate when the CN PDB is dynamically determined. The dynamic CN PDB can be calculated at the basestation or at the user plane function (“UPF”) and an indication of the dynamic PDB indication can be sent between the basestation and/or the UPF.

A repeater system, preferably including one or more radio transceivers, such as a 5G NR transceiver configured to communicate with other elements of a 5G NR communication network such as user equipment and/or gNBs, and a signal processor. A method for repeater operation, preferably including determining synchronization information, operating in a synchronized repeater mode, and maintaining synchronization (such as by monitoring periodic signal timing and adjusting operation timing based on the monitoring), and optionally including operating in a fallback repeater mode.

A system and method for establishing anchors in an augmented reality environment activates an anchor device to continuously transmit a first spatial information packet and a second spatial information packet, the first and second packets being respectively sent through a first communication technology and a second communication technology. The first spatial information packet and the second spatial information contain an identification (ID) and an angle information of the anchor device. An augmented reality (AR) device receives the first spatial information packet and the second spatial information packet. The AR device further includes a processing unit. A spatial relationship between the AR device and the anchor device is obtained through the processing unit according to the first spatial information packet and the second spatial information packet. The spatial relationship includes a position of the anchor device relative to the AR device, and the horizontal and vertical distances therebetween.

Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology exploits modulated coded impulses over a wide frequency spectrum with very low power over a short distance for digital data transmission. Such UWB systems through their receivers may operate in the presence of interfering signals and should provide for robust communications. Accordingly, an accurate and sharp filter that operates at low power is required and beneficially one that does not require a highly accurate power heavy clock. Further, many UWB applications require location and/or range finding of other elements and it would therefore be beneficial to provide a UWB based range finding and/or location capability removing the requirement to add additional device complexity and, typically significant, power consumption.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a non-terrestrial network (NTN) entity, a message that is associated with an uplink grant. The UE may select, based at least in part on the message, either a cell-specific offset or an updated offset that is indicated after initial access, as a timing offset that accounts for a propagation delay between a base station of the NTN and the UE. The UE may transmit, to the NTN entity, an uplink communication using the timing offset. Numerous other aspects are described.

A method and multimedia device for calibrating audio delays of an audio system with wireless loudspeakers are disclosed. The method allows to emulate surround or 3D sound systems with spatially distributed wireless loudspeakers. A first probe signal for audio playback, having a first audio pattern, is transmitted by a loudspeaker. A signal quality is determined by listening to an acoustic response of the loudspeaker to the first probe signal. A second audio pattern is determined by modifying the first audio pattern based on the signal quality. A second probe signal for audio playback having the second audio pattern is transmitted by the loudspeaker. An audio delay compensation is then determined for the loudspeaker based on a measure of an audio delay between the transmitted second probe signal and an acoustic response of the loudspeaker in response to the second probe signal.
