Then one or more used devices may be selected based at least in part on status and reporting messages, and a computational capacity of the user equipment.

The user equipment will send a computational result upon completion of the computational task. A node will then implement the computational result so as to at least partially meet the computational-need condition.

Abstract: A communication device and method may include at least one tuner circuit that monitors at least a first frequency channel and a second frequency channel. A controller of the radio receiver may measure a first received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value over time for the first frequency channel and a second RSSI value over time for the second frequency channel. The first and second RSSI values are based on a signal strength of radio frequency (RF) energy received on the first and second frequency channels, respectively. The controller may detect a leader portion of a message on the first frequency channel responsive to a change in the first RSSI value exceeding a step change threshold. The controller may extract, via a detector circuit, message data from a carrier wave of the RF message.

Abstract: A network component of a radio access network (RAN) is configured to provide network slice information to a user equipment (UE). The network component receives an indication that a user equipment (UE) is requesting to access a network slice, determines a frequency associated with the network slice, identifies a cell within the RAN that operates on the frequency associated the network slice and transmits a message to the UE, wherein the message indicates the cell within the RAN that operates on the frequency associated with the network slice.

Abstract: A mobile device determines based on a signal strength threshold when tracking devices communicatively coupled to the mobile device are lost or left behind. The mobile device communicatively couples to a tracking device and receives a first signal transmitted by the tracking device with a signal strength greater than a signal strength threshold. The mobile device receives a second signal transmitted by the tracking device and determines a measure of signal strength based on the second signal. While the mobile device is still communicatively coupled to the tracking device, and responsive to determining that the measure of signal strength of the second signal is less than the signal strength threshold, the mobile device generates a notification that the tracking device may be lost or left behind to alert the user of the mobile device.

Abstract: A network management function of a relay network may identify relay node support of multi-mobile terminal (MT) operation, and may coordinate configuration of multiple backhaul links supported by the relay node via the multi-MT functionality of the relay node. In some cases, a relay node may transmit MT capabilities to the management function over a first established backhaul link, and the management function may configure a second backhaul link using a second MT function of the relay node. In other cases, the relay node may autonomously establish multi-MT connectivity based on preconfigured parent-selection policies, and the network management function may identify the relay node is dual-connected to the network management function. In either case, the network management function may configure backhaul routes (e.g., backhaul links) and resource configuration across the redundant topology.

Abstract: A real-time network consumption tracking service is provided. A charging function (CHF) device receives transaction records of network consumption by user equipment (UE) devices in a wireless network and generates individual event messages based on each of the transaction records. Each of the individual event messages includes a detailed record based on one of the transaction records. The CHF device associates each of the individual event messages with a message bus topic, formats each of the individual event messages for publication on the message bus, and publishes each of the formatted individual event messages to the message bus. The message bus is accessible to external systems that generate dynamic network consumption data sets based on the formatted individual event messages.

Abstract: An external client requests the location of a UE using control plane signaling. The UE sends downlink location measurements, such as Reference Signal Time Differences, for a plurality of base stations (BSs) to a serving BS at a layer 1 or layer 2 protocol level and at first periodic intervals. The UE and the plurality of BSs send additional location measurements, such as receive time-transmission time differences, to the serving BS at second periodic intervals, which are longer than the first periodic intervals. The serving BS uses the additional location measurements and downlink location measurements to determine timing information, such as Real Time Differences, for the plurality of BSs. The serving BS determines the location of the UE using the downlink location measurements and the timing information at the first periodic intervals and sends the location to the external client using user plane signaling to reduce delay.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatuses for retransmission of a communication by a relay node based on a failure of a target node to receive the communication. In some aspects, the relay node may determine that the second wireless node has failed to receive the second communication, or an upstream wireless node (such as a distributed unit) may determine that the target node has failed to receive the communication. The relay node may retransmit the communication based on such a determination. In some aspects, the relay node may buffer the communication or information used to generate the communication, and may retransmit the buffered communication. In some aspects, a configuration for the retransmission may be modified based on a capability of the relay node or another concern.

The trained model may be updated online using measurement results on load, throughput and power consumption.
