According to one example embodiment, a wireless communication device having an associated first serial code. The wireless communication device includes a receiver, a processor, and a transmitter. The wireless communication device starts up intermittently. The receiver receives a second serial code different from the first serial code from a second the wireless communication device different from the wireless communication device. The processor stores the second serial code received by the receiver in a memory, and acquires the first serial code and the second serial code from the memory. The transmitter transmits the first serial code and the second serial code.

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.

The embodiments of the disclosure provide a bandwidth switching method and a user equipment. The method includes: when a BWP switching command is received while successfully receiving the random access completion message of the non-contention-based random access process, determine the non-contention-based random access process has been completed successfully in accordance with random access completion message, and determine not to perform the BWP switching process, or perform the BWP switching process in accordance with the random access completion message and the BWP switching command.

The present disclosure concerns a method of estimation and correction, at the level of a base station, of a frequency drift (ΔF1, ΔFi, ΔFN) between signals transmitted by a plurality of antenna systems (306_1, 306_i, 306_N) spatially distributed around a computing unit of the base station (304) and signals received by a radio device (310).

A method and apparatus are disclosed. In an example from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE), the UE receives a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format from a base station. The UE applies a timing offset to information indicated by the DCI format.

Aspects presented herein may enable one or more wireless devices to perform a sidelink-based ranging and/or positioning with an assistance of an RIS. In one aspect, a first wireless device receives an information indicating at least a time in which at least one RIS is to be activated. The first wireless device transmits a first set of reference signals to a second wireless device via the at least one RIS. The first wireless receives a second set of reference signals transmitted from the second wireless device via the at least one RIS. The first wireless calculates a first signal RTT based on the first set of reference signals and the second set of reference signals.

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.

The present application relates to a Doppler shift compensation method and device The method includes: indicating by a network side, to a terminal side, Doppler compensation reference information preset for each beam cell in a satellite coverage area, so that a terminal accessing the beam cell can timely obtain a terminal side Doppler compensation value.

A method for initial timing synchronization for a WTRU to communicate with a network includes receiving an in-channel narrowband synchronization sequence from the network to enable initial coarse timing synchronization, determining coarse timing offset and a range between a beam source of a network transmitter and the WTRU, selecting a wideband sequence for fine timing synchronization using the estimated range, transmitting the selected wideband sequence for fine timing synchronization during an uplink timing occasion, receiving from the network a transmission of the selected wideband sequence for fine timing synchronization, and establishing fine timing synchronization between the WTRU and the network using the selected sequence.

Accurate and reliable time is acquired by a user equipment (UE) from a base station in a wireless network. The base station may obtain the time, e.g., UTC time or a GNSS time, and ciphers at least a portion of the time before broadcasting the time. The UE determines a propagation delay between the UE and the base station based on a timing advance, known locations of the UE and the base station, or a measured round trip propagation time (RTT) between the UE and the base station. A corrected time can be determined based on the time received from the base station and the propagation delay. A digital signature included with the time broadcast by the base station increases reliability. Spoofing of the broadcast time by an attacking device may be detected by the UE based on the propagation delay being outside an expected range.
