Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for establishing data paths over multiple access network for a multi-access data connection. One apparatus includes a processor and a transceiver that communicates with a mobile communication network via a first access network and/or a second access network. Via the transceiver, the processor transmits a request, over the second access network, to establish a data connection and receives a first request to set up a first data bearer for the data connection over the first access network in response to the request. Via the transceiver, the processor receives a second request to set up a second data bearer for the data connection over the second access network in response to the request, where both the first data bearer and the second data bearer are used to carry traffic of the data connection.

Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer program product enable a space saving rollable display device to extend automatically in a power efficient manner. While a blade assembly is in a retracted position, a controller of the electronic device determines whether a user notification opportunity exists based on a transition between contextual states of one of stationary and changing from unattended to attended by the user; and stowed on-body of the user changing to held by the user. In response, the controller actuates a translation mechanism to slide a blade assembly, which includes a blade and flexible display, relative to a device housing of an electronic device from a retracted position to at least a partially extended position. The actuation prepares the flexible display to present user notification(s) and generates a physical indication to a user that the user notification(s) is available to be presented when the flexible display is active.

Abstract: A communication device, method and computer program product provide efficient average power tracking (APT) powering of transmit power amplifiers with fewer switching mode power supplies (SMPSs) to reduce size and cost of the communication device. A controller of the communication device detects an output voltage level of a battery supply of a communication device power amplifiers (PAs) assignable to respective transmit uplinks. The communication device includes a smaller second number of switching mode power supplies (SMPSs). The communication device includes linear regulator(s) that are powered by one of (i) output voltage of the battery supply and (ii) one of the one or more SMPSs. Controller selects a combination of SMPSs and linear regulators to power active PAs. The controller determines APT supply voltage value for each PAs and assigns the SMPS(s) and the linear regulator(s) to the PAs to achieve a highest overall or combined system power efficiency.

Abstract: A flexible display includes a foldable display coupled to a foldable substrate. The foldable substrate is preformed to maintain a curvilinear three-dimensional shape when in a neutral, force-free state. The curvilinear three-dimensional shape can simulate one or more contours of an electronic device housing to which the flexible display is attached, thereby reducing or minimizing stress loads on the flexible display as the electronic device housing transitions between an axially displaced open position and a closed position.

Abstract: Techniques for user image presentation based on region priority are described and are implementable to enable an image of a user to be inserted into media content. For instance, media content is generated that includes at least one high priority region and at least one low priority region. Further, a user image is captured to be inserted into the media content. Accordingly, the user image is inserted into the at least one low priority region to avoid obstructing high priority visuals displayed within the at least one high priority region.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) antenna array comprising a plurality of antenna elements configured for MIMO communication across a network. One or more sensors detect a triggering event altering a radiation correlation pattern between at least two antenna elements of the plurality of antenna elements. One or more processors then select, in response to the one or more sensors detecting the triggering event, a quantity of antenna elements from the plurality of antenna elements available for engagement in the MIMO communication across the network as a function of the radiation correlation pattern.

Abstract: Generally, a computing device displays, on a display device of the computing device, a barcode to be read by a scanning device. When a barcode is displayed on the display device a determination is made as to whether the barcode is not fully displayed on the display device due to hardware of the computing device such as a punch hole in the display device for a camera, speaker, or microphone. If the barcode is not fully displayed due to the hardware of the computing device, the display of the barcode is modified so that the barcode is fully displayed on the display device despite the hardware of the computing device. Additionally or alternatively, if the scanning device has not completed the scan within a threshold amount of time, the display of the barcode on the display device is modified, such as by increasing or decreasing the resolution of the barcode.

Abstract: A communication device, method and computer program product reduce time to connect a communication session. The communication device registers for cellular communication service using a first radio access technology (RAT) or sub-RAT with a first node. The communication device determines whether a connection for a selected communication service is predicted to be available from the first node. The communication device determines whether a request for the selected communication service is predicted to occur. In response to determining that the connection for the selected communication service is unavailable from the first node and the request for the selected communication service is predicted to occur, the communication device identifies a second node that supports communication using a second RAT/sub-RAT. The communication devices triggers registration fallback from the first node to the second node.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for authenticating with a mobile communication network. One apparatus includes a memory comprising instructions executable by a processor to cause the apparatus to receive, from a remote unit, a first request to start authentication via a non-3GPP access network and to send, to the remote unit, an EAP-Start packet to initiate an EAP-5G session between the apparatus and the remote unit for exchanging NAS messages between the remote unit and an AMF via the apparatus. Here, the EAP-5G session utilizes EAP-5G packets having an expanded EAP type and a 3GPP vendor ID, the NAS messages being encapsulated within the EAP-5G packets. The apparatus further receives, from the remote unit, an EAP-5G response packet including a NAS request message and a first set of AN-Params including a PLMN ID of the mobile communication network and NSSAI.

Abstract: Face profiles for multiple people associated with a user are obtained at a computing device. The face profile for a person identifies the face of the person (e.g., an image of the face of the person) and a confidence level indicating how important that person is to the owner. An image is captured at the computing device and a determination is made, based on a confidence level associated with at least one face in the image, whether the image is relevant to the user. One or more actions to keep the image are taken in response to determining that the image is relevant to the user, such as saving the image at the computing device or transmitting the image to a computing device of the user.

Abstract: In aspects of personal content managed during extended display screen recording, a screen recording system includes a wireless device that provides digital image content for display on an extended display device, and a screen recording session on the wireless device captures the digital image content and audio data. The wireless device implements a content control module that can determine the screen recording session would capture personal content associated with a user of the wireless device. The content control module can initiate a private screen review mode in which the personal content is displayable on a display screen of the wireless device and is prevented from visual display on the extended display device. The content control module can also generate a shareable screen recording that includes the audio data and the digital image content displayed on the extended display device, without including the personal content.

Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer program product expedite authentication of a user by capturing a palmprint, without necessarily requiring a dedicated user action. The electronic device monitors for detection of an image via a palmprint scanner, positioned by a translation mechanism, in response to identifying a requirement to authenticate the user. The translation mechanism slides a blade assembly relative to the device housing between extended and retracted positions. The blade assembly includes a blade, a flexible display, and the palmprint scanner sized to cover at least a portion of a back side of the device housing for receiving the palmprint while the blade assembly is at least in the retracted position. The electronic device authenticates the user in response to identifying a palmprint in the image corresponding to an authorized user and presents visual content via the flexible display positioned on a front side of the display housing.

Abstract: In aspects of environment mapping based on UWB tags, a system includes ultra-wideband (UWB) tags located for association with respective objects in an environment, where each UWB tag is identified with a digital label indicative of the association with one or more of the objects. A mapping module is implemented to determine a location of each of the UWB tags in the environment, and determine relative positions of each of the UWB tags with respect to each other. The mapping module can generate a location association map of the objects in the environment based on the location and the relative position of each of the UWB tags associated with the respective objects. In an environment within a building, the mapping module can generate the location association map as a floor plan of the building, including the objects location in the building.

Abstract: A voice call is established between two or more computing devices. The voice call may be, for example, audio only or audio and video. One computing device, referred to as a near-end device, receives a digital representation of background noise captured at another computing device, referred to as a far-end device. The near-end device captures voice audio from the user of the near-end device and adjusts the voice audio based at least in part on the digital representation of the background noise at the far-end device. The near-end device then transmits the adjusted voice audio to the far-end device for playback at the far-end device.

Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer program product provide a predictable external finger area on a “rollable display device” for fingerprint authentication that is dynamically aligned to a fixed finger location on a device housing of the electronic device. The electronic device has a translation mechanism operable to position with a blade assembly having a flexible display that retracts to reduce size of the electronic device for carrying or stowing. The transmission extends the blade assembly to increase display area of a flexible display on a front side of a device housing of the electronic device. A fingerprint scanner that moves with the flexible display is sized to capture a fingerprint at a fixed finger area on a device housing of the electronic device for each position of the blade assembly between the retract position and the extended position. The fingerprint of a user is used to authenticate the user.

Abstract: An electronic device, method, and computer program product support automatic sharing of a cross-view by a network device hosting a communication session for first and second communication devices. The first communication device presents first visual content that is selected by a first participant. The second communication device presents second visual content that is selected by a second participant. First semantic inputs by the first participant are communicated to the second communication device for presenting to the second participant. Second semantic inputs by the second participant are communicated to the first communication device for presenting to the first participant. In response to determining that the semantic input(s) are associated with the visual content, the network device communicates a duplicate copy of the first visual content to the second communication device and a duplicate copy of the second visual content to the first communication device, as a cross view to enhance discussion.
