First and second parts of an optical component may be spatially separated and not electrically connected. A passive side may contain an optical element. An active side may contain a light-emitting device. To detect damage to the optical element, passive side circuitry that is associated with the optical element may monitor a fail-safe resistor on the optical element for changes in resistance. The circuitry may use a passive side near-field communications antenna to transmit information such as information on the fail-safe resistor to active side circuitry that is associated with the light-emitting device using near-field communications. The active side circuitry can receive the transmitted information using an active side near-field communications antenna and can adjust the light-emitting device accordingly. The active side circuitry can also monitor the active side near-field communications antenna to detect when the passive side and active side antennas have been moved apart.

Techniques for selecting the number of sounding reference signal (SRS) resources to be used by a user equipment (UE) operating in a wireless communications system are provided. The UE determines a degree of partial beam correspondence of the UE and compares the degree to a threshold amount of partial beam correspondence support of the UE. In response to the comparison, UE selects a number of sounding reference signal (SRS) resources to request from a network node and sends a SRS resource request message to the network node to request the selected number of SRS resources.
