A system that incorporates aspects of the subject disclosure may perform operations including, for example, a method of identifying, by a system comprising a processor, network communication degradation in one or more layers of a multi-layered communication protocol above a physical layer, wherein the network communication degradation is associated with communications taking place through a network, in part over a radio frequency link, between a plurality of communication devices, obtaining, by the system, data from a layer below the one or more layers of the multi-layered communication protocol identified as having the network communication degradation, determining, by the system, one or more geographic regions of the network associated with the network communication degradation from the data, and mitigating, by the system, effects of the network communication degradation in the one or more geographic regions of the network. Other embodiments are disclosed.

The present disclosure provides a method and device used in UE and a base station for wireless communications. The UE receives a first signaling; and operates a first radio signal. The first radio signal comprises K first-type sub-signals and K first-type reference signals; the first signaling is used for determining time-frequency resources occupied by the first radio signal; time-domain resources occupied by the K first-type sub-signals are non-orthogonal, and frequency-domain resources occupied by each two of the K first-type reference signals are mutually orthogonal; the K first-type reference signals are respectively used for channel estimation of the K first-type sub-signals, and a reference signal port of each of the K first-type reference signals is associated with a target reference signal port. The above method is advantageous in improving efficiency of PTRSs in multi-TRP/panel transmissions.

Systems and methods for dynamic maximum transmission unit determination are disclosed. For example, one or more triggering events may be detected to initiate determining whether to adjust transmission unit sizing for data transmission between devices. Received signal strength indicator (RSSI) values may be exchanged between the devices and those RSSI values may be utilized to determine a strength of a communication signal between devices. When the RSSI values are low, the communication signal strength may be weak and the devices may adjust the transmission unit size to be larger. In other examples when the RSSI values are high, the communication signal strength may be strong and the devices may adjust the transmission unit size to be smaller.

A processing system including at least one processor may obtain a request that identifies a region associated with a wireless communication network, identify sub-areas within the region, obtain performance indicator data for the sub-areas for a plurality of time periods from mobile devices within each sub-area, and apply an adaptive thresholding to the performance indicator data for each sub-area to determine one or more thresholds associated with the performance indicator data. The processing system may further identify a risk level, from among a plurality of risk levels, for each sub-area for at least one time periods based upon the one or more thresholds and the performance indicator data for each sub-area, where the one or more thresholds define one or more risk levels of the plurality of risk levels, and provide reporting data indicating the risk level for each sub-area for the at least one time period.

Systems and methods for ACM trajectory include receiving data at a communications receiver; decoding the received data based on a selected MODCOD; monitoring a number of iterations used to decode the data using the selected MODCOD; comparing the number of iterations used to decode the data using the first selected MODCOD to a reference number of iterations; and adjusting a SNR threshold value for the selected MODCOD where the number of iterations used to decode the data using the first selected MODCOD is greater than the reference number of iterations.

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for consecutive data packet feedback. One method includes receiving a first set of consecutive data packets. The method includes transmitting feedback corresponding to the first set of consecutive data packets, wherein the feedback comprises: an error indication in response each data packet in the first set of consecutive data packets failing to be received correctly; a non-error indication in response to at least one data packet in the first set of consecutive data packets being received correctly; a counter value that indicates a consecutive number of data packet failures; or some combination thereof.

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for determining one or more tone sequences (for example, for wake-up procedures). In one aspect, an access point (AP) may wake a mobile station (STA) from a low power mode using a wake-up packet, where an ON symbol of the wake-up packet is modulated using a tone sequence. To reduce the likelihood of a STA falsely identifying the ON symbol as a packet preamble, the AP may implement a tone sequence that satisfies a correlation metric threshold. For example, for a set of candidate tone sequences, each tone sequence may be associated with a correlation metric and peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) coordinate pair, and the tone sequence for modulating the ON symbol of the wake-up packet may be selected from a lower convex hull of the coordinate pairs.

A processing system including at least one processor may obtain a request that identifies a region associated with a wireless communication network, identify sub-areas within the region, obtain performance indicator data for the sub-areas for a plurality of time periods from mobile devices within each sub-area, and apply an adaptive thresholding to the performance indicator data for each sub-area to determine one or more thresholds associated with the performance indicator data. The processing system may further identify a risk level, from among a plurality of risk levels, for each sub-area for at least one time periods based upon the one or more thresholds and the performance indicator data for each sub-area, where the one or more thresholds define one or more risk levels of the plurality of risk levels, and provide reporting data indicating the risk level for each sub-area for the at least one time period.

A user terminal according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes: a receiving section that receives downlink control information for scheduling a downlink shared channel or an uplink shared channel; and a control section that determines a time density of a Phase Tracking Reference Signal (PTRS) based on a plurality of thresholds and a Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS) index in the downlink control information, wherein the plurality of thresholds is associated with at least one of a table and whether or not transform precoding is applied, and the table is used to determine at least one of a modulation order and a code rate of the downlink shared channel or the uplink shared channel.

A wireless communication method includes: sending first indication information to a network device, wherein the first indication information is used to indicate at least one of a modulation and coding scheme threshold that corresponds to a pattern of a phase tracking reference signal and recommended by a terminal device, a scheduled resource block quantity threshold that corresponds to the pattern of the phase tracking reference signal and recommended by the terminal device, and a factor of impact of phase noise of the terminal device on a signal received by the terminal device; and receiving the phase tracking reference signal sent by the network device.
