Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) to perform URLLC scheme selection. The UE may connect to at least one base station. The UE may determine scheduling of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) are within a threshold duration. Based on the PDCCH and the PDSCH being scheduled within the threshold duration, select one or more transmission control indicator (TCI) states for receiving the PDSCH irrespective of TCI state(s) indicated in the PDCCH. The UE may receive the PDSCH using the selected one or more TCI states.

Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a Voltage-Controlled Oscillator (VCO) with reduced phase noise compared to other VCOs. The VCO may include a first cell and a second cell separated by common-mode (CM) isolation circuitry. The first cell and the second cell may each include a portion of the CM noise of the VCO. Moreover, gate terminals of switches of the first cell and the second cell may be cross-coupled to drain terminals of the switches of the second cell and the first cell respectively. An interdependency of voltages of the first cell and the second cell may reduce an amplitude of the respective portions of the CM noise on the first cell and the second cell.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a phased antenna array that radiates at a frequency greater than 10 GHz. The array may include a first set of dielectric resonator antennas arranged in a first row and a second set of dielectric resonator antennas in a second row offset from the first row. Each dielectric resonator antenna may have dielectric resonating element with a base portion and a stepped portion. The stepped portions of the antennas in the first set may be arranged to be distant from the stepped portions of the antennas in the second set. The antennas in the first set may be arranged to be more distant from an electronic device sidewall than the antennas in the second set. Configured in this manner, the array may exhibit reduced inter-coupling between dielectric resonator antennas in the first set and dielectric resonator antennas in the second set.

For example, a method may include determining that a physical environment includes a second device, where a second user associated with the second device is to be depicted in a view of a three-dimensional (3D) environment. The method may further include determining position data indicative of a location of the second device relative to the first device.

The method may further include receiving a user preference setting associated with the second user for depicting or augmenting the second user in the 3D environment from the information system.
