Wireless Patient Monitoring System and Method
A patient monitoring system includes at least two wireless sensing devices, each configured to measure a different physiological parameter from a patient and wirelessly transmit a parameter dataset. The system further includes a receiver that receives each parameter dataset, a processor, and a monitoring regulation module executable on the processor to assign one of the at least two wireless sensing devices as a dominant wireless sensing device and at least one of the remaining wireless sensing devices as a subordinate wireless sensing device. The physiological parameter measured by the dominant wireless sensing device is a key parameter and the parameter dataset transmitted by the dominant wireless sensing device is a key parameter dataset. The key parameter dataset from the dominant wireless sensing device is processed to determine a stability indicator.

Dynamic bandwidth switching for reducing power consumption in wireless communication devices
Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-program products for performing dynamic bandwidth switching between control signals and data signals of differing bandwidths are disclosed. A mobile device receives a control signal having a first bandwidth. The mobile device receives a data signal having a second bandwidth different from the first bandwidth. The control signal and the data signal are received over a single carrier frequency. The data signal is transmitted after the control signal such that the data signal and control signal are separated by a time interval. The time interval is based on a switching latency of the mobile device.
Location-Based Sidelink Wake-Up Operation
A first wireless device receives, from a second wireless device, one or more messages indicating one or more location areas where the first wireless device continuously monitors for one or more sidelink signals. The first wireless device determines that the first wireless device is located in the one or more location areas. Based on the determining, the first wireless device starts continuous monitoring of a control channel for the one or more sidelink signals from a third wireless device. The first wireless device receives, from the third wireless device and based on the starting continuous monitor, the one or more sidelink signals.

A method for supporting Sidelink (SL) Discontinuous Reception (DRX) operation is provided. A User Equipment (UE) maintains SL DRX configuration which includes one of a transmission pattern and a reception pattern that the UE expects to perform transmission and reception to a peer UE. The UE exchanges the SL DRX configuration with the peer UE. Based on the exchange of the SL DRX configuration, the UE determines when to perform transmission or reception to or from the peer UE during an SL DRX operation. Based on the determination, the UE performs transmission or reception to or from the peer UE during the SL DRX operation.
ADAPTIVE OPERATIONAL MODE SETTING FOR CIRCUITS
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the user equipment (UE) may adjust an operational mode of a circuit of the UE by selecting one or more parameters (e.g., power level or clock frequency or both). Adjusting parameter values may result in avoiding increased temperature. The UE may set an operational mode of a circuit based on a determination or a prediction of a number of blind decodes to be performed, a number of pending receive packets, or a number of transmitting UEs from which the UE will receive traffic. The UE may efficiently reduce unnecessary power expenditures and decrease temperature.
