11570649 · 2023-01-31 · ·

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide techniques for determining synchronization signal (SS)/physical broadcast channel (PBCH) block (SSB)-based measurement timing configuration (SMTC) for measurement objects for which a user equipment is to measure feedback information in one or more measurement gaps. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Common channel configuration in new radio inactive state

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment may receive a radio resource control (RRC) resume message, associated with transitioning the UE from an inactive state to a connected state. The UE may configure, based at least in part on receiving the RRC resume message, the UE with a serving cell common configuration, associated with a serving cell of the UE, received in a system information block (SIB) associated with the serving cell. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Single channel deployment over wireless network topologies

Systems, devices, and methods relate to a hybrid wireless access point (AP) which can support both single-channel mode and multi-channel mode at same time and within the same device. Uplink and/or downlink packets may be received by the hybrid AP, where the received packet may be same packet sent to different hybrid APs, and then each hybrid AP may decide to use these received packets for single-channel architecture (SCA), multi-channel architecture (MCA), or both. In SCA, the hybrid APs may communicate with each other to sync the SCA behavior.

Wireless instrument area network node with internal force sensor

A wireless instrument area network node employs an internal force sensor arrangement to detect user-provided force on the node and initiate a node operation, such as wake the node from a sleep state or low power mode to a more power-hungry awake and processing state. The internal force sensor avoids the need to provide external buttons, a screen, and the like on the surface of the node that could lead to intrusion of fluids, gases, or other unwanted substances into the node. In some embodiments, the internal sensor may include a microswitch that has sufficient sensitivity to detect even a very small amount of deflection resulting from, for example, a hand touch. In some embodiments, the internal sensor may include a piezoelectric sensor that has similarly high deflection sensitivity. Multiple such deflection detectors may be at different angles to one another deployed to provide greater directional coverage for the deflection.

Disclosed systems and methods configure a plurality of wireless access points to perform probe request handling operations including, responsive to receiving a probe request from a mobile device, relaying the probe request to a network controller, and responsive to receiving a probe response from the network controller, relaying the probe response to the mobile device. The network controller is configured to provide the mobile device with a multipoint wireless network by identifying two or more of the plurality of wireless access points as selected access points for multipoint transmission with the mobile device, coordinating the selected access points to allow simultaneous transmissions to the mobile device from each of the selected access points, and forwarding a probe response indicative of the selected access points to the selected access points.

A base station can prevent deterioration of data channel application control accuracy due to influence of transmission power control to a control channel. In the base station, each encoding section performs encoding processing to an SCCH (Shared Control Channel) of each mobile station, each modulating section performs modulation processing to the encoded SCCH, an arranging section arranges the SCCH to each mobile station to one of a plurality of subcarriers which configure an OFDM symbol, and transmission power control section controls transmission power of the SCCH based on reception quality information reported from each mobile station. The arranging section arranges a plurality of the SCCH to be under transmission power control to one of the subcarriers so that combinations at resource blocks are the same.

Priority access in a wireless local area network (WLAN)

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-readable media, for priority access on a shared wireless channel. A priority station (STA), an access point (AP), or a network operator may activate a priority access service. The priority access service provides priority access to authorize priority STAs by allowing them to use more aggressive contention parameters for contention-based access of the wireless channel as compared to other STAs. In some implementations, non-priority STAs may be configured with weakened contention parameters to increase or ensure the likelihood that a priority STA will win contention for access to the wireless channel.

Data communication method and apparatus for performing spatial reuse

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a data communication method and apparatus. The data communication method includes: when receiving a PPDU, obtaining, by a network node, a BSS identifier in the PPDU; if the BSS identifier in the PPDU is different from a first BSS identifier, and the BSS identifier in the PPDU is the same as a second BSS identifier, determining whether the PPDU meets a preset spatial reuse condition, where the first BSS identifier is an identifier of a first BSS to which the network node belongs, the second BSS identifier is an identifier of an extended BSS to which a target relay belongs, and the target relay and the network node belong to the first BSS; and if the PPDU meets the preset spatial reuse condition, contending for an access channel, and communicating with a station other than the target relay in the first BSS.
