Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to data collection procedures that reduce the number of samples reported to a network entity and/or logged by a user equipment (UE), without introducing degradation in performance and/or accuracy of a trained artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) model or a related monitoring scheme. For example, the UE may receive control information that indicates a reduced sample size mode of operation associated with data collection, determine whether to apply the reduced sample size mode of operation for a measured set of data, and incorporate the measured set of data into a reduced set of samples based on the determination.

Abstract

A touchpad system including a touchpad and a touch controller. The touchpad includes a plurality of force sensors and a touch sensor. The touch controller is in electrical communication with the touchpad and is configured to obtain a touch signal from the touch sensor and determine a signal-to-noise ratio of the touch signal. The touch controller is further configured to determine whether to enter a high noise mode based on the signal-to-noise-ratio of the touch signal. Upon determining to enter the high noise mode, the touch controller is further configured to obtain a force signal from the plurality of force sensors, determine a weighting of the touch signal and force signal based on the signal-to-noise ratio of the touch sensor, aggregate the touch signal and force signal based on the weighting, and determine a contact position of a user touch on the touchpad using the aggregated touch and force signals.

Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to synchronization signal designs, such as enhanced primary synchronization signals (PSSs) or secondary synchronization signals (SSSs) associated with different radio access technologies (RATs). For example, a synchronization signal may include a first PSS on a first set of resources and/or a second PSS on a second set of resources that partially overlap the first set of resources, where the first PSS is based on a first m-sequence and the second PSS is based on a second m-sequence that is a preferred pair with the first m-sequence. Thus, a wireless communications system may introduce, support, and/or deploy synchronization signals that enables UEs, regardless of their supported RAT capabilities, to identify a RAT/cell and/or perform initial access communications (e.g., transmission and/or reception) with an identified RAT/cell.

The disclosure provides random access procedures for a UE, where available TRPs have different or asymmetric configurations (e.g., one TRP being applicable for DL and UL and one TRP being applicable for UL-only). For example, a wireless communications system may establish or enhance the mapping of slots between TRP random access channel (RACH) configurations, such as a mapping of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) to ROs (e.g., an SSB-to-RO mapping rule). In doing so, the network can enable a UE to select and access available TRPs via various valid slots associated with the TRPs.

Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure relate to the transmission of system information for low power wide area (LPWA) devices using pre-determined resources that are based on aspects of a synchronization signal block (SSB) transmission (e.g., resource blocks (RBs) for the SSB) and/or a control resource set zero (CORESET0) configuration for non-LWPA devices. Further, the techniques can mitigate or avoid the overlap of monitoring occasions associated with use of the CORESET0 for both non-LWPA devices and LWPA devices. In doing so, the wireless communications system may reduce overhead introduced by the number of scheduling command transmissions for LPWA devices, among other benefits.

The secondary UEs perform the requested positioning or ranging action and return their results to the initiator UE. The results are protected (e.g., encrypted) using one or more keys associated with the temporary group identifier. These one or more keys may be a group broadcast key known by all of the secondary UEs, or individual broadcast keys for the individual secondary UEs.

Abstract

Various aspects relate to a device that receives a configured uplink grant from a base station for semi-persistent uplink transmissions, receives a configuration for a retransmission timer, receives a configuration of a next-generation NodeB (gNB) fixed frame period (FFP) for semi-static channel access in a shared spectrum, detects a downlink transmission burst within gNB-FFP, and obtains a medium access control protocol data unit for a configured uplink transmission that includes a first physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission. A communications manager establishes that a hybrid automatic repeat request process associated with the first PUSCH transmission is pending so as to preclude performance of the first PUSCH transmission in response to determinations that the first PUSCH transmission is associated with a gNB channel occupancy time (COT), there is a time gap between the downlink transmission burst within the gNB-COT, and the first PUSCH transmission is smaller than a time gap threshold.

Abstract

A computer implemented method, system and computer program product are provided that implement a neural network (NN) audio filter. The method, system and computer program product obtain an electronic audio signal comprising a speech impaired message and apply the audio signal to the NN audio filter to modify the speech impaired message. The apply operation converts the audio signal into characters; and identifies and removes at least one of a repetitive pattern or duplicate word in the characters to form the unimpaired message. The unimpaired message is output.

Abstract

A method and apparatus permit the testing of electrochemical cells. The apparatus includes a heat source, a chamber, and a diffuser coupling the heat source to the chamber. The heat source applies heat via the diffuser to a pin-point section of the electrochemical cell. This application of heat causes a thermal runaway condition due to a localized internal short circuit in the electrochemical cell. It is then determined whether the electrochemical cell has vented, ruptured, or exploded in response to the application of the heat source to the thermal runaway pin-point section of the electrochemical cell.

Abstract

A method and apparatus are provided, in which execution of a managed entity is controlled. A control loop that is operated relative to the managed entity is established (1102), which links at least one monitored criteria to an assigned goal having a defined target value. Performance of the managed entity within the control loop is adjusted (1104), based upon a difference between a current value of the monitored criteria and the defined target value. One or more trigger conditions are associated (1106) with the control loop. A detection (1108) is then made as to whether a trigger condition associated with the control loop has been met. Upon detecting that the trigger condition associated with the control loop has been met, the goals assigned to the monitored criteria, that is linked to the control loop, which has the trigger condition that has been met is changed (1110).
