Interference management in calibration of a pre-distorter for a power amplifier of a user device. The method includes measuring strength of signals received via of beams of one or more antenna arrays of a user equipment; ordering the beams on the basis of the measurement strengths; selecting from the ordered beams at least one beam for calibration of a pre-distorter for a power amplifier of the user equipment; obtaining information of available measurement resources for the calibration; transmitting a calibration signal using the selected beam at the time of the available measurement resources; receiving the calibration signal by another radio frequency chain of the antenna array which is not used in the transmission of the calibration signal; obtaining calibration information on the basis of the transmitted calibration signal and the received calibration signal; and calibrating the pre-distorter based on the calibration information.

Electromagnetic telemetry systems, methods to obtain downhole signals indicative of a drilling operation, and drilling data acquisition systems are presented. An electromagnetic telemetry system includes a downhole transmitter configured to transmit signals indicative of whether the downhole transmitter is in a transmission mode to transmit drilling data, a drilling data acquisition system configured to receive the signals indicative of whether the downhole transmitter is in the transmission mode, and one or more remote nodes disposed around the hydrocarbon wellsite. Each respective remote node of the one or more remote nodes configured to operate in a first mode to periodically transmit data indicative of the signal strength to the drilling data acquisition system. Each respective remote node is also configured to operate in a second mode to acquire drilling data from the downhole transmitter, and wirelessly transmit the drilling data to the drilling data acquisition system.

Temporarily suppressing and/or disabling notifications to a client device of events detected by a security device monitoring an environment. The notifications may be disabled and/or suppressed based upon a request from a user of the client device, or when the client device is nearby the security device. The user may request that notifications are suppressed for a definable suppression duration, wherein a timer is started to run for the suppression duration, and notifications are suppressed while the timer is running. When the client device is nearby the security device, suppression of the notifications for other users may be defined by a user-configurable table. A notification from a security device may include a suppress button to suppress notifications from that security device for a suppression period.

A method, performed by a first communication device, for transmitting a wireless local area network (WLAN) packet to a WLAN network interface device of a second communication device is described. The second communication device includes a separate wakeup radio (WUR) coupled to the WLAN network interface device. The WLAN packet is generated at the first communication device to include a WUR identifier associated with a neighbor communication device. The WUR identifier is usable by the WUR of the second communication device to identify WUR packets transmitted by the neighbor communication device. The neighbor communication device is different from the first communication device. The WLAN packet is transmitted by the first communication device to the WLAN network interface device of the second communication device.
