Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a position estimation entity (e.g., UE, gNB, LMF, etc.) identifies a pool of UEs for a SL-assisted position estimation procedure of a set of target UEs. SL SRS-Ps are communicated (e.g., transmitted and measured) between the pool of UEs (e.g., for relative SL ranging). UL SRS-Ps are communicated by at least some of the UEs in the pool of UEs. The position estimation entity obtains measurement data for both the SL SRS-P and UL-SRS-P communications. The position estimation entity determines a position estimate for each UE in the set of UEs based on the measurement information.

A system for discovering tunnel neighbors is provided. During operation, the system can establish, at a first switch, a tunnel with a second switch in an overlay tunnel fabric that includes the first and second switches. Upon establishing the tunnel, the system can generate a discovery packet comprising a first set of discovery information indicating the configuration and capabilities of the first switch associated with the tunnel. The system can send the discovery packet to the second switch via the tunnel prior to initiating payload data communication via the tunnel. The system can also receive a second discovery packet from the second switch via the tunnel. The second discovery packet can include a second set of discovery information indicating the configuration and capabilities of the second switch associated with the tunnel. The system can then store the second set of discovery information in an entry of a data structure.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Beam pair link (BPLs) may be associated with a state of a wireless device. For example, a first wireless device may communicate with a second wireless device using a set of BPLs, and the second wireless device may operate using a predetermined movement sequence, where different movements may correspond to the second wireless device using respective states. In some examples, a BPL may be selected for each state of the second wireless device and used to communicate with the first wireless device, where the BPL that corresponds to a particular state may be determined through beam training procedures. In some cases, BPLs associated with respective states may experience decreased link quality and the first wireless device may transmit a configuration that modifies the communications between the first and second wireless devices based on the affected BPLs.

A method comprises receiving, by a shim application of a user equipment (UE), an outbound communication from a first application destined for an external device, prior to transmitting the outbound communication to the external device, determining, by the shim application, whether to forward the outbound communication to the external device, via a radio interface of the UE, based on a first policy, receiving, by the shim application, an inbound communication destined for a second application from the external device, via the radio interface, determining, by the shim application, whether to forward the inbound communication to the second application based on a second policy, receiving, by the shim application, an inter-enclave communication from the first application destined for the second application, and determining, by the shim application, whether to forward the inter-enclave communication to the second application based on the second policy.

A method and a system for identifying radio access network (RAN) coverage at geographic locations includes generating a grid layer of real-time RAN coverage based on a key performance indicator (KPI). Generating a grid layer of predicted RAN coverage. Generating a viewport representation corresponding to a geographic location supported by the RAN. Superimposing the real-time RAN coverage grid layer, the predicted RAN coverage grid layer, and the viewport representation into a unified coverage representation. Determining RAN availability at a selected geographic location based on the unified coverage representation.

The disclosure relates to a fifth generation (5G) or sixth generation (6G) communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. The method includes transmitting, to a base station, user equipment (UE) capability information indicating that the UE supports a frequency division multiplexing (FDM) between a unicast physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and a group-common PDSCH in a slot and receiving, from the base station, a first PDSCH that is the unicast PDSCH and a second PDSCH that is the group-common PDSCH, which are FDMed in the slot based on the UE capability information.
