Abstract: A method of wireless communication, by a user equipment (UE), includes scanning a wireless network for a system information message containing inter-radio access technology (IRAT) frequency information for a non-terrestrial network. The method also includes displaying a non-terrestrial network icon on a user interface of the UE in response to receiving the system information message. The icon indicates non-terrestrial network coverage.

Abstract: Imaging systems and techniques are described. An imaging system causes a display to display light according to a predefined pattern. The imaging system receives image data of a scene from an image sensor. The image data is captured using the image sensor while the display is configured to display the light according to the predefined pattern. The imaging system processes the image data to generate at least one image frame of the scene based on detection of the predefined pattern in the image data. The imaging system outputs the at least one image frame of the scene.

Abstract: During a positioning session between a user equipment (UE) and a location server, the location server may send the base station a request to suspend the Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection with the UE. For example, the location server may send a request to the base station recommending suspension of the connection or may provide an indication of the amount of time during which position related messages between the UE and the location server are not expected. The base station may determine whether to suspend the connection with the UE, thereby placing the UE in an inactive state based on the information provided. The base station may further determine whether to suspend the connection based on data activity of the UE. While in an inactive state, the UE and base station store UE connection context, which may be used to quickly resume the connection.

Abstract: In some implementations, a server may obtain wireless network coverage information from crowdsourcing devices, where the wireless network coverage information indicates characteristics of wireless network coverage at different locations along various routes of travel. The server may determine a wireless coverage map of an area based on the wireless network coverage information, where the wireless coverage map comprises, for locations along one or more routes of travel within the area, a respective wireless coverage indication indicative of a level of wireless coverage for wireless networks at the respective location. The server may send route-based coverage information to a mobile device for a particular route, where the route-based coverage information includes the respective wireless coverage indication, from the coverage map, for one or more locations along the particular route.

Abstract: During positioning of a user equipment (UE), for example, during an emergency call, a civic location of the UE may be determined. For example, during a location session in a wireless network, a UE may detect a WiFi access point (AP) and obtain the civic location of the WiFi AP from the AP. The UE may provide the civic location to a location server in the wireless network, which may treat the civic location as the civic location of the UE. The location server may validate the civic location using a geodetic location, e.g., obtained based on measurements from a satellite positioning system and/or base stations in the wireless network. The location server may further verify that the UE is proximate to the WiFi AP using WiFi positioning measurements performed by the UE. The validated civic location can be provided to an external client, e.g. a PSAP.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) provides to a location server a recommendation or request for positioning technologies and methods that may be appropriate for the environment in which the UE is located. The UE may provide the recommendation or request may be a priority list of one or more specific positioning technologies, one or more specific methods of a positioning technology, a combination thereof. The UE based prioritization for positioning may be provided unsolicited or requested by the location server. The UE based prioritization for positioning may be provided as part of a message used in current positioning protocols, such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) Positioning Protocol (LPP), e.g., by ranking information elements (IEs) associated with each positioning technology and method in the body of the message or as part of a common IE.
