Abstract: A network device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), or a new radio NB (gNB)) can process or generate a configuration of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring in different search spaces sets independently from one another in order to manage different services optimally. A processor of the network device can be configured to receive physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates of a PDCCH in a slot for channel estimation across search spaces of the slot. Different priorities can be determined among the PDCCH candidates in the slot based on a priority rule. Then a number of PDCCH candidates can be skipped/dropped from monitoring based on the different priorities of the PDCCH candidates to ensure that a threshold level of blind decoding operations across a plurality of slots of the PDCCH is being satisfied. The UE can monitor a portion of the PDCCH candidates while concurrently skipping another.

Abstract: The disclosed technology relates to a process of dynamically assigning operational parameters for access points within a CBRS (Citizen Broadband Radio Service) network. In particular, the disclosed technology monitors for and detects interference between nearby access points and user equipment devices that may belong to the same enterprise or to different enterprises. Machine learning processes are used to revise the operational parameters that were initially assigned by the Spectrum Access System (SAS). These processes are also used to suggest an updated set of operational parameters to the SAS for the access points. The dynamic assignment reduces interference experienced by the access point with respect to nearby other access points and/or nearby other user equipment. The dynamic assignment aims to improve a quality of communication between the access point and its associated user equipment.

Abstract: An access point to the Internet or another network is programmed with a set of rules for establishing or limiting a number or type of client device with which the access point may associate itself. The set of rules may be subjectively defined for a single access point in a network, or objectively defined for each of the access points in the network. The set of rules may further include static rules such as overall limits on numbers of clients, types of clients, or amounts or rates of data transfer, or dynamic rules that change over time, and may be modified to account for loading on one or more of the access points, thereby enabling each of the access points to be placed in an optimal configuration.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for rate-matching data on a per transmission reception point (TRP) basis for single downlink control information (DCI) multi-TRP transmissions. Transmitters operating according to the present disclosure use a per TRP rate matching technique in which the rate-matching order is to first rate-match across spatial layers transmitted by a TRP, then across frequency, then across time, and then to another TRP, where remaining data is rate-matched across the spatial layers of that other TRP, then across frequency, and then across time. The described per TRP rate-matching technique causes code blocks of a transport block to be transmitted by one TRP, instead of each code block being transmitted by a group of TRPs.

Abstract: Devices and methods of transmit opportunity (TXOP) with continued listen-before-talk (LBT) are generally described. A user equipment (UE) can be configured to perform a single LBT during an LBT scanning instance, to detect availability of an unlicensed wireless channel. Upon detecting availability of the channel, data is encoded for transmission during a TXOP with a TXOP duration. A pause in the transmission of the data is initiated upon expiration of a first time interval of the TXOP. A continuous LBT procedure is performed upon expiration of the pause, to determine a plurality of sensing metrics indicating occupancy of the unlicensed wireless channel. The transmission of the data is resumed during the TXOP for a second time interval, when at least one sensing metric of the plurality of sensing metrics is below a threshold.
