The method is applied to a vehicle communication interface device. In the method, when a channel establishment instruction of the vehicle diagnosis device is received, a CAN controller in an idle state in at least two CAN controllers is determined, and then a communication parameter is set for the CAN controller in an idle state. Further, when a specified communication pin set of the vehicle diagnosis device is received, it is determined whether a CAN controller connected to the specified communication pin set is in an idle state.

The user station includes a communication control device for controlling a communication of the user station with another user station, and a transceiver device for transmitting a transmission signal, generated by the communication control device, onto a bus, so that for a message that is exchanged between user stations of the bus system, the bit time of a signal transmitted in the first communication phase is different from a bit time of a signal transmitted in the second communication phase. The communication control device generates the transmission signal according to a frame in which fields for a header check sum and a frame check sum. The communication control device computes the header check sum from all bits in the header of a frame that is formed for the message, except for fixed stuff bits that have been inserted into the header.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. In some cases, a sidelink user equipment (UE) operating in a power saving mode may identify a resource reservation configuration for communicating within a resource pool allocated for sidelink communications. The UE may operate in a first power state of the power saving mode during a sensing window. The sensing window may correspond to a resource selection window of the resource pool. The UE may transition, after the sensing window, from the first power state to a second power state that may consume more power than the first power state. The UE may identify a subset of resources of the resource pool in the resource selection window that are available for sidelink transmission by the UE based on transitioning between the first power state and the second power state.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a base station, an indication that indicates whether a multicast and broadcast service (MBS) physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) scheduled by downlink control information (DCI) is associated with a second PDSCH processing capability, wherein the second PDSCH processing capability has a shorter duration than a first PDSCH processing capability. The UE may receive, from the base station, the MBS PDSCH scheduled by the DCI. The UE may transmit, to the base station and based at least in part on the indication, hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback in accordance with the first PDSCH processing capability or the second PDSCH processing capability. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: A 5G network having a multi-path transport protocol (MPTP) proxy external to the user plane function (UPF). The session management function (SMF) provides address information of the external MPTP proxy to user equipment (UE) and distributes access traffic steering, switching, and splitting (ATSSS)-related rules to the UE, the UPF, and the external MPTP proxy. The external MPTP proxy receives, from the UPF, (i) 3GPP uplink data transmitted by the UE via a 3GPP radio access network (RAN) and (ii) non-3GPP uplink data transmitted by the UE via a non-3GPP RAN, combines the 3GPP and non-3GPP uplink data to form network uplink data for a data network. The external MPTP proxy also divides received network downlink data into 3GPP downlink data and non-3GPP downlink data, and provides the 3GPP and non-3GPP downlink data to the UPF for transmission to the UE via the 3GPP RAN and the non-3GPP RAN, respectively.
