In response to the receiving, the apparatus performs operation (s) comprising: (1) storing or using a value of an unavailability period duration indicated in the received IE; and/or (2) deleting an earlier stored value of the unavailability period duration; and/or (3) informing the unavailability period duration to an upper layer.
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a UE. The UE determines a first start time for an unavailability period. The UE transmits, to a network entity, a first message including the first start time for the unavailability period. The UE receives, from the network entity, a second message including a second start time for the unavailability period. The UE activates the unavailability period based on the second start time.
A user equipment, a network node and a method to indicate an MM procedure to activate an unavailability period during an active Non-Access Stratum (NAS) congestion in a wireless communication network are provided. The method includes detecting that a timer T3346 is running or is deactivated; and reporting, by a user equipment (UE), an unavailability information with Start of the unavailability period, while the timer T3346 is running or is deactivated.
Various solutions for channel information feedback with prior information with respect to user equipment and network apparatus in mobile communications are described. An apparatus may receive a reference signal transmitted by a network side including at least one network node. The apparatus may obtain at least one selected basis. The apparatus may derive a channel response information observed by a receiving domain of the apparatus according to the reference signal. The apparatus may decompose the channel response information into a preferred domain. The apparatus may determine a simplified linear combination coefficient representation of the channel response information in the preferred domain according to the selected basis. The apparatus May report a compressed channel information to the network side based on the simplified linear combination coefficient representation and the preferred domain.

A calibration apparatus for calibrating a transceiver includes a loop back circuit, an estimation circuit, and a calibration circuit. The loop back circuit is coupled between a mixer output port of a transmitter (Tx) of the transceiver and a mixer input port of a receiver (Rx) of the transceiver, and applies a sequence of different loop gains. The estimation circuit receives a loop back receiving signal that is output from the Rx under the sequence of different loop gains, and generates at least one estimated value of impairment of the transceiver by performing channel estimation according to at least the loop back receiving signal. The calibration circuit performs calibration upon the transceiver according to the at least one estimated value.
A method for cell selection is provided. The cell switching method may include the following steps. The UE may determine whether a serving cell is a platform cell or a tunnel cell. Then, the UE may determine whether to restrain from switching to a neighbor cell based on at least one parameter associated with the serving cell in response to the serving cell being the platform cell or the tunnel cell.
A method and an electronic device for training a complex neural model of acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) are provided. The method includes: generating an anchor audio pair, a positive audio pair and a negative audio pair according to multiple near-end signals and multiple acoustic echo signals; utilizing the complex neural model to extract an anchor audio feature, a positive audio feature and a negative audio feature from the anchor audio pair, the positive audio pair and the negative pair, respectively; calculating a loss function according to the anchor audio feature, the positive audio feature and the negative audio feature; and tuning at least one parameter of the complex neural model according to the loss function.
A method for managing a start time of an unavailability period by a network is provided. The method comprises sending a 5GMM message to a user equipment (UE) containing a start time of the unavailability period determined by the network.
