Publication number: 20230422152Abstract: A base station may send an indication of frequency subranges supported by the base station to user equipment, which may respond with an indication of the frequency subranges that are also supported by the user equipment. Additionally, a Spectrum Access System (SAS) controller, using environmental sensing capability sensors, may determine whether non-federal networks are disposed in a coverage area of a base station and neighboring coverage areas. If so, then the SAS may indicate to the base station to send an indication to user equipment in the coverage area to operate using a default power mode. Otherwise, the SAS may indicate to the base station to send an indication to the user equipment to operate using a lower power mode. Moreover, a base station may indicate a regulatory requirement to user equipment using network signaling value of multiple network signaling values corresponding to multiple regulatory requirements of multiple geographical regions.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: Anatoliy Sergey Ioffe, Daniel Popp, Elmar Wagner, Fucheng Wang, Alexander Sayenko

Patent number: 11856599Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to techniques for measuring and/or detecting a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) of a received signal at a user equipment (UE). The received signal may include a desired signal, co-channel interference, adjacent channel interference, and an in-band blocker. The UE may filter (e.g., remove) the various interferences and in-band blocker. The UE may determine or measure a power (or Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)) of the desired signal and a power (or RSSI) of the co-channel interference separately because the desired signal and the co-channel interference overlap in frequency. To do so, the UE may determine a total power of the received signal including the desired signal and co-channel interference. The UE may receive the desired signal again while an uplink transmission is deactivated (and thus without the interference). The UE may then calculate the SIR based on the total power and the power of the desired signal.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2022Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Fucheng Wang, Anatoliy Sergey Ioffe, Camila Priale Olivares, Daniel Popp, Alexander Sayenko, Elmar Wagner

Publication number: 20230397177Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for operating transceiver circuitry to transmit or receive signals on various frequency ranges. To do so, an electronic device may determine a receive delay between one or more messages received on different component carriers and may transmit the receive delay to a base station to update how communications are transmitted on one of the component carriers. The update made to at least one of the component carriers may compensate for the receive delay between the different component carriers. Compensating for the receive delay may improve operations that delay downlink communications to reduce a likelihood or stop simultaneous downlink and uplink communications by further adjusting for delays seen at an electronic device when communicating with base stations disposed at a different distances from the electronic device.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2023Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Anatoliy Sergey Ioffe, Elmar Wagner, Jan M.

Patent number: 11832232Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for indicating to a spectrum access system communication preferences of a base station and/or of a network operator. Different methods may be used to indicate the communication preferences, including a dedicated type parameter transmitted with spectrum allocation requests from the base station, a rule-based system where the spectrum access system accesses communication preferences of the base station and/or network operator through an identifier corresponding to a rule definition, or the like. The spectrum access system may assign a channel to the network operator based on its communication preferences, such as to determine a channel assignment to correspond to a channel aligned with a raster of communications to be used by the network operator. If the channel is not aligned, then the base station may shift a center frequency of the channel so that the channel aligns with the raster of communications.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2022Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Alexander Sayenko, Anatoliy Sergey Ioffe, Daniel Popp

Patent number: 11723040Abstract: For wideband operation in the unlicensed spectrum, a network operator may allocate a channel having multiple sub-bands to user equipment. The presently disclosed embodiments enable the user equipment to select one of multiple noncontiguous sub-bands and/or blocks of contiguous sub-bands that are available in the channel, and transmit data over the selected one of the noncontiguous available sub-bands and/or blocks of contiguous available sub-bands. The user equipment may select the one of the noncontiguous available sub-bands and/or blocks of contiguous available sub-bands of the channel based on the largest block of contiguous available sub-bands, the largest grant size, the best signal quality, the greatest estimated throughput, and/or the highest priority level. Moreover, in cases where data is transmitted using contiguous available sub-bands, guard bands disposed in between the contiguous available sub-bands may also be used to transmit data.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2021Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Alexander Sayenko, Anatoliy Sergey Ioffe

Publication number: 20220361115Abstract: Techniques for controlling the maximum transmission power utilized by transmitters of user equipment are provided. More specifically, a base station may control a transmission power of a transmitter of user equipment that is communicatively coupled to the base station to cause the transmission power of the transmitter to comply with regulations of a geographic location that the user equipment is in. In addition to the base station, the user equipment may control the transmission power of the transmitter.

Publication number: 20220360362Abstract: This disclosure is generally directed to systems and methods for high power operation in user equipment. The user equipment may indicate to a network high power capability of the user equipment. Based on an uplink signal strength of the user equipment, the network may send a command to the user equipment to transmit using the high power user equipment (HPUE) operation in half-duplex frequency division duplex (HD-FDD) mode. The network may also send a signal for the user equipment to return to a default power mode based on the uplink signal strength. The user equipment may then reconfigure to the default power in full-duplex frequency division duplex (FD-FDD) mode. The user equipment may also send an indication of an uplink duty cycle which indicates the ratio of uplink allocations corresponding to uplink transmissions relative to total uplink and downlink allocations.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2021Publication date: November 10, 2022Inventors: Anatoliy Sergey Ioffe, Elmar Wagner, Fucheng Wang
