  • Patent number: 12342201
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that improve resource configuration for crosslink interference (CLI) measurement in a wireless communications system. For example, a victim user equipment (UE), may be configured to receive and measure the CLI from one or more aggressors. Specifically, the victim UE may be configured to use a dedicated tracking loop for the CLI measurements to track a dedicated channel of the CLI. Additionally or alternatively, the victim UE may associate CLI with an aggressor identity allowing the CLI resources from the same aggressor to be measured jointly. In another example, an aggressor UE may transmit additional reference signals for a victim UE to measure prior to sounding reference signals. The victim UE may report the CLI measurements to its serving base station.

  • Patent number: 12342318
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, control signaling that indicates one or more parameters pertaining to reception of paging early indications (PEIs). The UE may receive a PEI from the base station in accordance with the one or more parameters. The UE may determine, based on the PEI, whether the UE is scheduled to receive a multicast paging message from the base station in a subsequent paging occasion (PO). If the UE is scheduled to receive a multicast paging message, the UE may monitor for the multicast paging message in the subsequent PO. Otherwise, the UE may enter a low-power state during the subsequent PO, which may result in greater power savings at the UE. Aspects of the present disclosure may provide for improved multicast paging operations between the UE and the base station.

  • Patent number: 12335013
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure address beam management enhancement with the assistance of a cooperative relay UE over a sidelink (SL) channel. A UE may include a memory and a processor. The processor may use machine learning and channel condition measurements to predict an upcoming Uu link beam failure (BF). Based on the prediction, the processor may request SL data resources from a base station, wherein the processor may receive an allocated SL channel and a relay UE. When the Uu link fails, the processor can transmit a beam failure recovery (BFR) signal to the base station using the relay UE over the SL channel. The present disclosure overcomes the deficiencies of conventional BFR processes in which the BF forces the UE to perform a contentious RACH procedure, causing time delays and power consumption.
