Abstract: A capability for localization of a wireless tag based on wireless gateway association information uses a wireless tag supporting multiple states and wireless gateway association information associated with the wireless tag to control localization of the wireless tag. The wireless tag may support an unconnected state in which the wireless tag communicates location tracking information using a wireless beacon signal which may be detected by various wireless gateways and a connected state in which the wireless tag communicates location tracking information via one or more connections with one or more wireless gateways. The wireless gateway association information may include wireless gateway lists (e.g., whitelists, blacklists, or the like), association rules, notification rules, or the like. The wireless gateway association information may be used to control transitions of the wireless tag between the unconnected state and the connected state, to control notifications for the wireless tag, or the like.

Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved positioning estimation. For example, certain embodiments may benefit from improved radio-based positioning estimation of a target user equipment using an observed time difference of arrival. A method, in certain embodiments, may include receiving at a target user equipment from a network entity a list comprising a plurality of supporting user equipment and a plurality of base stations. The method may also include receiving at the target user equipment supporting positioning reference signals via sidelink transmission from the plurality of supporting user equipment and positioning reference signals from the plurality of base stations. In addition, the method may include taking observed time difference of arrival measurements or determining a position estimate at the target user equipment based on the positioning reference signals and the supporting positioning reference signals.

Abstract: Luminal prostheses comprise scaffolds having coatings adhered to at least a portion of their outer surfaces. The surfaces are modified to enhance binding of the coatings. For example, the surfaces may be microblasted, laser treated, chemically etched, exposed to plasma, or exposed to a corona discharge, allowing a polymeric coating to adhere to the scaffold more tightly than in the absence of the surface modification. The coatings can be used to deliver therapeutic or other agents dispersed therein.

Abstract: The method includes at least one processor estimating a first set of bias errors of a first set of base stations by obtaining a first set of time-of-arrival (ToA) measurements associated with the first set of base stations and a first set of devices, the first set of devices having known physical locations. The processor determines input parameters using the first set of bias errors, the input parameters including a first set of antenna locations for the first set of base stations, and a second set of ToA measurements associated with the first set of base stations and a first object, and determines a first object location for the first object using the input parameters.

Abstract: Proposed is a method to operate a user equipment in a radio access network for transmitting uplink payload. In a first step (24) a determination is made whether a cell of the radio access network is selected, wherein the determination of the first step (24) is based on first information (28). In a second step (34) a determination is made whether the cell which has been selected in the first step (24) is accessed via a first radio access scheme or a second radio access scheme, wherein the determination of the second step (34) is based on second information (38). In a third step (44a; 44b) the uplink payload (8) is transmitted via an uplink channel of the selected cell according to the radio access scheme selected in the second step (34).
