Beam characterization

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication and testing. In some aspects, a device may receive information identifying a mount orientation of a wireless communication device, wherein the mount orientation indicates an orientation of a coordinate system of the wireless communication device relative to a coordinate system of a positioner. The device may capture measurement information at each position of a set of positions of the wireless communication device, wherein the set of positions comprises positions of the wireless communication device as the wireless communication device is rotated around an axis by the positioner, and wherein the measurement information is captured based at least in part on the mount orientation. The device may provide information identifying the measurement information. Some techniques and apparatuses described herein may use the measurement information to generate a codebook for beam generation. Numerous other aspects are provided.

SELECTIVE USE OF ANTENNA DIVERSITY IN MTC DEVICES

A wireless device includes a first antenna and a second antenna that may be used to communicate with a wireless network. The wireless device initiates a traffic call with a wireless network and activates a first antenna to be used to communicate with the wireless network upon initiating the traffic call. The wireless device selectively activates a second antenna, when initiating the traffic call, based at least in part on a usage of the second antenna during a previous traffic call. For example, the wireless device may maintain the second antenna in an inactive state if the second antenna was deactivated during the previous traffic call and/or remained inactive for at least a threshold duration.

METHOD FOR MANAGING A RADIO INTERFACE OF A COMMUNICATION DEVICE
20240413846 · 2024-12-12 · ·

A method and a device for managing a radio interface of a communication device, the radio interface includes a plurality of antennas suitable for transmitting and receiving data frames, a front-end module being associated with each antenna, each front-end module comprising a chain for transmitting and a chain for receiving data frames. According to the invention for each antenna and the associated front-end module, a measurement of the received power level is obtained, each power level obtained is compared with a decision threshold determined from at least some of the measurements of power levels of received signals. If the power level of the signal received for an antenna and the associated front-end module is below the decision threshold, the front-end module is deactivated for transmitting a data frame.
