BUILDING TRANSPORT BLOCKS IN WIRELESS NETWORKS

A UE employing carrier aggregation receives an uplink grant from a wireless communication system base station for each of a plurality of Physical Uplink Shared CHannel (PUSCH) component carriers. The UE orders each PUSCH component carrier for transmission based at least in part on the uplink grant. The UE ranks logical channels for uplink transmission; and then builds transport blocks comprising data of higher ranked logical channels on higher ordered component carriers. The UE can then transmit the transport blocks across the component carriers to the base station.

SIGNALING DETAILS FOR PRS STITCHING FOR POSITIONING IN A WIRELESS NETWORK
20210185632 · 2021-06-17 ·

A wireless entity, such as a user equipment (UE) or transmission reception point (TRP), receives and processes aggregated positioning reference signals (PRS) to increase the effective PRS bandwidth, thereby increasing positioning accuracy, such as time of arrival measurements. An aggregated PRS includes one or more PRS components that are transmitted from a same transmitting entity. Each PRS component may be, e.g., a separate PRS resource associated with a contiguous frequency-domain bandwidth or may be, e.g., a plurality of frequency-domain bandwidths spanned by a single PRS resource. PRS components of an aggregated PRS that are unpunctured, e.g., do not collide with higher priority signals, are aligned in time domain, and are configured with common constraints are processed jointly assuming that the PRS components are transmitted from a same antenna port, thereby increasing the effective PRS bandwidth.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR UE-IMPLEMENTED CELL SCANNING AND REPORTING IN A WIRELESS NETWORK
20210195483 · 2021-06-24 ·

A system described herein may provide a technique for scanning for cells in a wireless network in a prioritized manner. A User Equipment (“UE”) may receive a neighboring cell list (“NCL”) or other indication of candidate cells for scanning. The UE may rank the candidate cells (e.g., based on which radio frequency (“RF”) band(s) are implemented by the candidate cells), and scan for the presence of the candidate cells in an order that is based on the ranking.

DESKTOP APPLICATION MANAGER: CARD DRAGGING OF DUAL SCREEN CARDS

Methods and devices for selecting a card from an application stack, wherein the card represents a corresponding application that a user would like to make active or bring focus to. The selecting includes one or more of a dragging and a tapping action, with these actions being triggers for transitioning the device to an optional drag state or tapped state, respectively. Transitioning through this state executes the activating of a corresponding application or other action on the device to facilitate window/application/desktop management. The selecting further allows a user to specify which a touch screen (or portion hereof) on which a particular application should be launched.

Antenna port mapping for demodulation reference signals

A unified, rank independent mapping between antenna ports and group/code pairs. Each antenna port is uniquely associated with one code division multiplexing (CDM) group and one orthogonal cover code (OCC). The mapping between antenna ports and group/code pairs is chosen such that, for a given antenna port, the CDM group and OCC will be the same for every transmission rank.

CHANNEL SELECTION METHOD AND TRANSMIT END
20210144710 · 2021-05-13 ·

A channel selection method and a transmit end are provided. The method includes: ranking multiple channels, and generating a backoff count value; sequentially decrementing, from an initial timeslot, the backoff count value in each timeslot according to a ranking sequence of the channels and busy/idle states of all the channels until the backoff count value is 0; and selecting, from the multiple channels according to a result of the decrement performed on the backoff count value and a busy/idle state of at least one of the multiple channels, a channel that is used by the transmit end for sending data. The method and the transmit end can improve channel utilization.

ACCESS POINT UPDATE
20210160885 · 2021-05-27 ·

Systems and methods are provided for seamless and automatic upgrade of access points in a facility with minimal disruption, particularly, for important users of a network. The access points may be ranked, and the rankings may be aggregated to identify a sub-region of the facility with the lowest ranked access points. Various sub-sets of the access points in the identified sub-region can be updated separately so that spatial coverage by the other sub-sets maintains continuous access within the sub-region during the updates. Updates to later sub-sets and/or sub-regions can be performed contingent on the success of the earlier updates. In this way, updates can be verified on access points used by lower-priority users such as guest users of the network to avoid disruption of access to more important users such as executives or safety workers on the network.

Subslot physical downlink control channel monitoring and downlink preemption indication

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive multiple physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs) in one or more slots along with data traffic, where one of the PDCCHs includes a downlink preemption indication (DLPI) signifying that a portion of the data traffic was preempted. In some cases, the UE may monitor, within a same slot, for both the data traffic and an additional PDCCH carrying the DLPI and then transmit, within the same slot, a feedback message based on attempting to decode the data traffic, taking into account the DLPI. Additionally, the UE may receive the data traffic via a first service, where the DLPI indicates a second service preempts the first service. In some cases, the DLPI may be transmitted based on the UE being capable of processing the data traffic and transmitting the feedback message within the same slot.
