Electronic device
An input component for an electronic device can include a dial that defines an exterior surface and a shaft affixed to the dial. The dial and the shaft can be rotatable about a central axis of the shaft and the shaft can include a protruding portion that defines a channel. A collar can surround a portion of the shaft and can be at least partially disposed in the channel. A bushing can be positioned between the collar and the protruding portion of the shaft, with the bushing defining a groove.
Systems and methods to compensate for wireless signal attenuation in a passive key hands-free vehicle-related application
In some cases, signal attenuation may occur when a mobile device communicates with a vehicle. To accommodate for this, a vehicle may determine a distance between the vehicle and the mobile device by evaluating a signal strength of a wireless signal received from the mobile device. An erroneous distance result may be produced when the wireless signal is attenuated by an intervening object. A wearable device worn by the individual is used to detect the presence of the mobile device. The detection procedure involves measuring a separation distance between the wearable device and the mobile device at different instances in time as the individual swings his/her arm back and forth while moving towards the vehicle.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AN OPTIMUM RECEIVER BEAM SELECTION
In an embodiment, a method for optimum Receiver (Rx) beam selection in NR is disclosed. The method includes, performing a Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) measurement for one or more Rx beams during an idle period as a part of an initial synchronization procedure. The method includes determining an optimum Rx beam amongst the one or more Rx beams with a RSRP peak greater than RSRP peak associated with other Rx beams amongst the one or more Rx beams by a pre-defined offset as a part of a beam-sweep operation. The method further includes pairing the optimum Rx beam with a Transmitter (Tx) beam for a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) detection in a first half-frame of the SSB Burst upon elapse of the idle period.
TECHNIQUES FOR REPORTING MULTIPLE QUANTITY TYPES
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, a configuration message indicating a first reporting quantity type and a second reporting quantity type for generating a measurement report. The UE may determine a measurement payload size to use for generating a measurement payload for the first reporting quantity type and the second reporting quantity type. The UE may measure a first set of resources in accordance with the first reporting quantity type and a second set of resources in accordance with the second reporting quantity type. The UE may transmit, to the base station, the measurement report including a first measurement payload having the measurement payload size for the first reporting quantity type and a second measurement payload having the measurement payload size for the second reporting quantity type.
RESOURCE SET CONFIGURATION REPORTING WITH MULTIPLE CHANNEL AND INTERFERENCE MEASUREMENTS
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a reporting configuration that may include a number of channel measurement or interference measurement resource sets that the UE may measure in accordance with one or more reporting quantities. Based on receiving multiple resource sets in a reporting configuration from the base station, the UE may generate and transmit a measurement report including resource sets contained in the reporting configuration. This may allow the UE to report different report quantities between different resource sets indicated by a base station. In addition, the UE may be configured to rank measurements using different reporting quantities. The report configuration may configure the UE to perform measurements of different resources in accordance with one or more reporting quantities, and the UE may apply a rule to rank different measurements based on the indicated reporting quantities.
NR SIDELINK INTRA-CELL RELAY MEASUREMENT
Method and apparatus for configuring a UE with a relay measurement configuration for measuring one or more candidate relays in preparation of switching to a target relay. The apparatus receives, from a source relay, a candidate relay configuration. The candidate relay configuration including information of candidate relays and a relay measurement configuration. The apparatus measures a reference signal of the source relay and each of the candidate relays based on the candidate relay configuration. The apparatus transmits, to the source relay, a measurement report of the reference signal of the subset of candidate relays. The apparatus establishes a connection with a subset of candidate relays. The apparatus receives, from the source relay, a relay switch command to switch to a target relay from the subset of candidate relays.
DYNAMIC SMALL CELL RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) OPTIMIZATION
A method, device, and non-transitory computer-readable medium provide for scanning, by a device, a radio service area of a small cell radio access node to detect radio signals of one or more radio frequency (RF) bands, the radio signals including transmissions associated with one or more other small cell radio access nodes that are operating in a vicinity of the small cell radio access node, and the small radio access node being configured to alternately operate at multiple RF bands including the one or more RF bands; determining, by the device, a signal strength associated with each of the one or more RF bands; and dynamically optimizing, by device, operation of the small cell radio access node based on the signal strength associated with each of the one or more RF bands.
TECHNIQUES FOR POWER CONTROL IN MILLIMETER WAVE SYSTEMS
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first device, which may be a user equipment (UE), may perform a measurement on a wideband channel in a millimeter wave (mmW) frequency band. The wideband channel may include a set of subbands that span the wideband channel. Based on the measurement, the first device may determine a set of power control parameters for the wideband channel. The first device may determine to transmit a signal using a subband of the set of subbands and may modify one or more power control parameters of the set of power control parameters based on a power offset for the subband. The first device may transmit an indication of the modified one or more power control parameters to a second device. The first device may transmit the signal to the second device based on the modified one or more power control parameters.
