A communication device may execute a wireless communication of object data with a mobile device via a first target network using a second type of interface after executing a sending process of sending a wireless setting, for causing the mobile device to belong to the first target network, to the mobile device using a first type of interface in a case where the communication device is determined as currently belonging to the first target network. The communication device may execute the wireless communication of the object data with the mobile device via a second target network using the second type of interface after executing a specific process of causing both the communication device and the mobile device to belong to the second target network in a case where the communication device is determined as currently not belonging to the target network.

Methods are described that perform a dispatched consumer-to-store return or swap logistics operation for an item being replaced using a modular autonomous bot apparatus assembly and a dispatch server. The method begins with receiving a return operation dispatch command that includes identifier information, transport parameters, and designated pickup information for the item being replaced/returned, along with authentication information related to an authorized supplier of the item being replaced. Modular components of the bot apparatus are verified to be compatible with the dispatched logistics operation. The MAM then autonomously causes the bot apparatus to move to the designated pickup location, notifies the authorized supplier of an approaching pickup, receives supplier authorization input to permissively allow access to a payload area within the bot apparatus, monitors loading as the item being replaced is received along with return documentation, and then autonomously causes movement of the bot apparatus back to the origin location.

When there is a role switch between a first apparatus acting as a relay node towards a wireless network for one or more second apparatuses acting as remote nodes a relay context used by the first apparatus towards the wireless network is communicated to a second apparatus using sidelink communication. After that the first apparatus starts to act as a remote node and the second apparatus starts to act as a relay node using the relay context. Use of the same relay context makes the role switch transparent to the wireless network.

An electrical device for a system of a human-powered vehicle comprises a controller. The controller is configured to selectively act, based on reference information relating to the system, as each of a master controller and a slave controller. The master controller is configured to transmit a first control signal to a different slave controller of a different electrical device of the system. The different slave controller is configured to be operated in response to the first control signal. The slave controller is configured to be operated in response to a second control signal transmitted from a different master controller of a different electrical device of the system.

This application relates to the field of short-range wireless communication technologies, and discloses a Bluetooth pairing method. The method includes: when a terminal receives a first operation of a user, the terminal sends an inquiry request to a Bluetooth device, where the inquiry request is used to obtain a Bluetooth address of the Bluetooth device. When receiving the inquiry request, the Bluetooth device sends an inquiry response to the terminal, where the inquiry response includes the Bluetooth address of the Bluetooth device. The Bluetooth device sends an extended inquiry response to the terminal, where the extended inquiry response includes a device name of the Bluetooth device. After receiving the extended inquiry response, the terminal displays the device name of the Bluetooth device. In this way, the terminal can reduce a time consumed by the terminal in a process from discovering the Bluetooth device to pairing with the Bluetooth device.

The described technology is generally directed towards a multi-connectivity (three or more simultaneous communication links) framework in a wireless communication network, including aspects and components that support the operation of New Radio vehicle-to-everything (V2X) services. Aspects of the framework include initial access and V2X establishment, local manager selection, sidelink and cellular resource configuration, mobility and measurements (and reporting), group communication and vehicular platooning support, and V2X configuration and local manager association.
