Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Generally, the described techniques provide for a user equipment (UE) to receive a logical channel configuration indicating whether logical channels at the UE are configured to use an access link, a sidelink, or both. A UE may determine that data is available on one or more logical channels and may transmit a buffer status report and a scheduling request to a base station based on the determination. In response, the base station may transmit an uplink grant to the UE allocating resources for transmitting the available data based on the logical channel configuration. The UE may transmit the available data on the access link, the sidelink, or both, based on the received uplink grant, the logical channels to which the available data applies, and the logical channel configuration.

Abstract: A model selection and deployment service at a provider network receives an indication of sensor availability from a remote client device (e.g., what type of sensors are currently available to provide sensor data to the client device). The model selection and deployment service then selects, based on the sensor availability (and/or based on one or more other factors/criteria), a data processing model from a group of data processing models that are available for deployment to the client device. The model selection and deployment service then transmits the selected data processing model to the remote client device (e.g., for installation on the hub device). This may allow a client device to use the best data processing model for a sensor configuration and to dynamically adjust to any changes in the sensor configuration.

An electronic device on a transmitting side in a communication system comprises a processing circuitry configured to determine information on codebook for non-orthogonal-resource based multiple access over a set of transmission resources, and interleave a plurality of occupied elements of at least two codewords of the same user equipment on the set of transmission resources, so as to reduce a correlation among a plurality of user equipments during the non-orthogonal-resource based multiple access.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus where a user equipment (UE) may indicate different physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring capabilities (such as UE capabilities in terms of the number of control channel elements (CCEs), blind decodes (BDs), number of downlink control information (DCI) formats, etc.) per monitoring span or slot. For example, a UE may support a different number of CCEs per slot or a different number of DCIs per monitoring span for different service types (such as a different number of CCEs for enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and for ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC)). A UE may indicate different sets of PDCCH monitoring capabilities (such as sets of PDCCH monitoring capabilities for different service types, monitoring spans, slots, etc.). A base station may receive the indication of UE PDCCH monitoring capability information and may configure the UE with one or more monitoring occasions accordingly.

Abstract: The technologies described herein are generally directed toward link adaption for multistage messages. According to an embodiment, a system can comprise a processor and a memory that can enable operations facilitating performance of operations including determining that a control signal that was transmitted by the first device was not received by a second device, wherein the control signal comprises a first portion employing a first transmission scheme and a second portion employing a second transmission scheme. The operations can further include based on the determining that the control signal was not received by the second device, selecting a third transmission scheme for the second portion of the control signal.

Abstract: A system for delaying or inhibiting data is provided in order to shorten the time required for a reselection process from a first communication protocol to a second communication protocol. Reselection from the first communication protocol to the second communication protocol (e.g., 3G to 4G) requires a period of time without data transfers to allow the reselection to complete. The system delays or inhibits data transfers on the mobile device until the reselection process completes or the mobile device is idle for a predetermined length of time. In an embodiment, the system can buffer outgoing data and then send the data once the reselection has completed. In other embodiments, the system can drop packet sessions or ignore incoming packet pages. In another embodiment, the system can delay or inhibit data based on the priority of the data.

A user equipment (UE) may establish a first wireless connection with a first wireless device, and a second wireless connection with the first wireless device or a second wireless device, where the first wireless connection and the second wireless connection operate in a dual connectivity mode. The UE may identify first and second energy efficiency metrics associated with the first and second wireless connections, respectively. The UE may identify one or more parameters associated with a transmit power of communications at the UE, and may compare the first energy efficiency metric and the second energy efficiency metric. The UE may then allocate a first power resource to the first wireless connection, a second power resource to the second wireless connection, or both, based on the comparison, the one or more parameters, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a network access node and a client device for content type indication. The network access node selects a subset of bits among a set of bits in a second data packet associated with the first data packet based on the content type for the first data packet.

The network access node transmits the first data packet and the second data packet to the client device (300). Upon reception of the first data packet and the second data packet, the client device descrambles the scrambled subset of bits in the second data packet using a first scrambling sequence associated with an identity of the client device to determine the content type for the first data packet.
