Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to calibrating a formation signal for a mixed set measurement device. A first air-hang response of a first measurement device for a tubular string associated with a drilling operation can be measured. A second air-hang response of a second measurement device for the tubular string associated with the drilling operation can be measured. The first air-hang response and the second air-hang response can be used to determine a mixed air-hang response of the mixed set measurement device. The mixed air-hang response can be used to calibrate a formation signal for the mixed set measurement device.

Abstract: System and methods for geosteering inversion are provided. Downhole tool responses are predicted for different points along a planned path of a wellbore during a downhole operation, based on each of a plurality of inversion models. Measurements of the downhole tool's actual responses are obtained as the wellbore is drilled over the different points during a current stage of the operation. The inversion models are then clustered using a weighted clustering approached in which a weighted score system is formulated to apply a standard deviation, number of models, and/or misfit of each cluster as key parameters, and used to evaluate the clusters accordingly. The corresponding scores are computed and used to select clusters. The planned wellbore path is adjusted for the subsequent stage(s) of the downhole operation.

Abstract: Some aspects relate to techniques for calibrating a logging tool. In some implementations, the logging tool may estimate certain unknown properties of a signal based on distances between transmitters and receivers of the logging tool and based on frequencies used by the transmitters and receivers. The logging tool may estimate the unknown properties by interpolating values into a mathematical function related to the above-noted distances and frequencies. After estimating the unknown properties, the logging tool may be deployed into the wellbore, where it may use the estimated properties to process signals received through a subsurface formation.

Abstract: One or more processors, operating in a source base station and/or a target base station, determines a change in the termination point from the source base station to the target base station for a radio bearer with a current count value according to data unit sequencing. The one or more processors determine (1806) whether a user equipment (UE) changes the data unit sequencing as a result of the change in the termination point. In a first instance, the one or more processors cause the target base station to apply (1810) the current count value to the radio bearer, in response to determining that the data unit sequencing does not change. In a second instance, the one or more processors cause the target base station to apply (1820) a new count value different from the current count value to the radio bearer, in response to determining that the data unit sequencing changes.

Abstract: A first node of a radio access network (RAN) can implement a method for managing a connection between a network entity that supports packet-based calls and a UE in dual connectivity with an MN and an SN. The method includes communicating (1502), by processing hardware, information between the network entity and the UE, using a first radio bearer associated with an MCG for the UE. In addition, the method includes determining (1504), by the processing hardware, that the UE has detected an MCG failure. Further, the method includes sending, by the processing hardware, to a second node of the RAN supporting a secondary cell group (SCG) for the UE, a request to configure a second radio bearer to maintain the connection between the UE and the network entity using the second radio bearer.

Abstract: This document describes techniques and devices for efficient handling of a resource control state change and multi-node connectivity. Instead of performing multiple radio resource control (RRC) procedures to change a resource control state of a user equipment (UE) and establish, modify, or release a connection with multi-node connectivity, the techniques described herein combine the multiple RRC procedures into a single RRC procedure that supports both a resource control state change and multi-node connectivity. In particular, a master node sends a resource control state and multi-node connectivity message that includes both state change information and multi-node connectivity information. With this single message, timing and power resources of the UE can be conserved and failures resulting from asynchronous communication of the state change information and the multi-node connectivity information can be avoided.

Abstract: This disclosure presents an apparatus and system for lowering the cost of implementing a downhole sensor system using attachable collars. In some aspects, the attachable collar includes a transmitter component, while supporting electronics are included with a main collar, thereby reducing the cost of the attachable collar. The supporting electronics can send a transmission signal, a control signal, a synchronization clock signal, a selected transmission frequency, a sensor orientation and selection, and other instructions to the transmitter in the attachable collar. The receiver in the main collar can receive the output, as reflected by the subterranean formation, and transform the output to subterranean formation evaluation measurements. The measurements can be communicated to other systems. In some aspects, the attachable collar can include the receiver and the main collar can include the transmitter.

Abstract: This document describes methods and devices for a handover of a user equipment from source base station (a Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) base station) to a target base station (another 5G NR base station or an Evolved Packet Core (EPC) network base station). The source base station, which is in communication with the user equipment, determines to handover the user equipment to the target base station. The source base station, then determines whether to use a delta configuration or a full configuration for handing over the user equipment. For the full configuration, the source base station either excludes the delta configuration from, or indicates use of the full configuration in, handover preparation information. By so doing, the source base station enables handover of the user equipment to the target base station.

Abstract: A method includes detecting, via first and second receivers of a tool that are oriented at a first and a third tilt angle, respectively, a first and second measurement of a first signal transmitted by a transmitter of the tool that is oriented at a second tilt angle into a substantially non-conductive material. The method includes determining, based on the first and second measurements, a first tensor and conveying the tool into a first wellbore formed in a subsurface formation. The method includes detecting, via the first receiver and the second receiver, a third and fourth measurement, respectively, of a second signal transmitted by the transmitter and determining, based on the third and fourth measurements, a second tensor and determining a third tensor (having values independent of the first, second, and third tilt angles) based on a relationship between the first and second tensors.

Abstract: An enhanced LBT procedure (200) mitigates unnecessary delays in delivering transmissions between User Equipment and base stations over unlicensed spectrum. A UE or base station selects a particular CAPC corresponding to an intended transmission (225) based on an intelligent mapping of different types of transmission payload (e.g., transmission payload other than or in in addition to pre-defined, QoS-related UP message data payload) to different CAPCs. Most (if not all) of the mapped CAPCs corresponding to the different types of transmission payload are of a higher priority than a lowest priority CAPC (212-222), resulting in channel access procedures that are more commensurate with respective transmission payloads.
