Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may monitor a channel for wireless communication associated with a first radio access technology (RAT) during one or more of a first active duration or a first inactive duration. The UE may operate in a first power mode during the first inactive duration. The UE may monitor the channel for wireless communication associated with a second RAT during one or more of a second active duration or a second inactive duration. The UE may operate during the second inactive duration in one or more of the first power mode or a second power. The UE may operate according to the first mode or the second mode based on the monitoring of the channel associated with the first RAT and the second RAT.
Abstract:
Enhanced inter-RAT and measurement gap operations are disclosed. In one aspect, a device may generate a customized measurement gap for monitoring control signals of another network for inter-RAT procedures. In another aspect, a device may modify, such as extend or shift, a network measurement gap to generate a modified measurement gap for monitoring control signals of another network for inter-RAT procedures. The device may modify the network measurement gap to align the network's measurement gap, such as LTE measurement gap, with a measurement window of another network, such as an SMTC window of a 5G network. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which a user equipment (UE) may wake up from a sleep mode of a discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle based on receipt of uplink data. The UE may determine if an elapsed time between a prior receipt of one or more reference signals and an uplink transmission to the base station after waking up from the sleep mode is less than a threshold time value. If the elapsed time is less than the threshold time value, the UE may transmit an uplink transmission associated with the received uplink data prior to receiving one or more reference signals that may be used to update transmission parameters for uplink transmissions. If the elapsed time is at or above the threshold value, the UE may wait to receive the one or more reference signals and update the transmission parameters prior to the uplink transmission.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may perform calibration of a transceiver chain to maintain or improve operation of a device or comply with legal or protocol requirements. The UE may receive one or more wireless signals indicating a first set of resources where the first device is scheduled to transmit or receive communications. The UE may calibrate a wireless transceiver chain of the first device in a second set of resources. The second set of resources excludes the first set of resources and includes at least a portion of a third set of resources. The third set of resources are resource in which the first device has an option to transmit or receive communications based on a protocol configuration.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a limit on a number of resource blocks (RBs) permitted to be used for a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) transmission by the UE; may determine, based at least in part on the limit, one or more parameters for the V2X transmission, wherein the one or more parameters include at least one of a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for the V2X transmission, a number of transport blocks (TBs) for the V2X transmission, a number of RBs per TB for the V2X transmission, or a retransmission configuration for the V2X transmission; and may transmit the V2X transmission based at least in part on the one or more parameters. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
Examples described herein relate to enhancing data communication performance in a wireless communication network including a first subscription associated with a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second subscription associated with a second RAT, where the wireless communication device uses a same radio frequency (RF) resource to communicate over both the first RAT and the second RAT. The first RAT is used, in part, for data operations while the second RAT is used, in part, for voice operations. During idle state voice operations, the RF resource is reallocated from performing data operations to performing idle state voice operations, causing interruptions in the data operations. The wireless communication device adjusts at least one or a duration and an occurrence of the idle state voice operations to reduce the impact on the data operations.
Abstract:
Examples described herein relate to systems and methods for a wireless communication device to manage cell measurements, including, but not limited to, performing measurements based on a first measurement configuration message received from a network, receiving a second measurement configuration message from the network before the measurements based on the first measurement configuration message are completed, and continuing to perform measurements based on the first measurement configuration message after receiving the second measurement configuration message.
Abstract:
Device-to-device operations are scheduled based on receive and transmit pools that may have a conflict in time domain. In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus for resolving time domain conflict in device-to-device communication are provided. The apparatus may compute a first block rate metric for a first device-to-device communication on a first frequency and a second block rate metric for a second device-to-device communication on a second frequency. The apparatus may detect a time-domain conflict between the first device-to-device communication on the first frequency and the second device-to-device communication on the second frequency. The apparatus may prioritize the first device-to-device communication on the first frequency and the second device-to-device communication on the second frequency based on the first block rate metric and the second block rate metric.
Abstract:
A method for wireless communication in a multi-antenna user equipment (UE) is described. The UE comprises communicating with a network device using a first antenna; assessing communication metrics; comparing the communication metrics to a threshold; determining to switch from the first antenna to a second antenna for communicating with the network device based at least in part on the comparing the communication metrics to the threshold; determining a switch duration corresponding to a length of time to switch from the first antenna to the second antenna for communicating with the network device; determining a silence window in which communication with the network device is suspended; determining a silence duration corresponding to a length of time of the silence window; comparing the switch duration to the silence duration; and switching from the first antenna to the second antenna during the silence window in response to the silence duration being equal to or greater than the switch duration. Further, a corresponding UE is described.
