Abstract: A low-PIM cable support rail assembly includes a metal strut extending in a longitudinal direction positioned within a potential PIM reactive zone of a cellular base station antenna. A channel runner assembly slidably engaged with the strut includes a low-PIM a low-PIM spacer and a low-PIM channel runner block that includes a captured rod anchor, such as a nut or bolt head, engaged with a threaded rod. A compression nut engaged with the threaded rod releasably pinches strut rails between the low-PIM channel runner block and the low-PIM spacer to secure the channel runner assembly at a desired position along the strut. The low-PIM channel runner block and low-PIM spacer prevent metal-to-metal contact when the compression nut is tightened to secure the channel runner assembly to the strut. A cable support block or other component may be spaced apart from the strut along the threaded rod.
Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to a method for controlling transmit power of a mobile terminal. The method is performed by a mobile terminal in a dual connectivity mode wherein the mobile terminal is configured to support two or more contemporaneous links, including a first link and a second link, with two or more wireless network access points. The mobile terminal independently calculates a respective unscaled uplink transmission power level for each link, based on a corresponding link-specific value.
Abstract: Provided are a frequency band determination device, a head-mounted display, a frequency band determination method, and a program that are capable of unprecedentedly quickly changing the frequency band used for communication in accordance with a change in an environment in which a communication device and a communication partner are placed. An image acquisition section acquires an image of an environment in which at least either an HMD or a communication partner for the HMD is placed. Based on the image acquired by the image acquisition section, a frequency band determination section determines the frequency band of radio waves used for communication between the HMD and the communication partner.
Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to the use of active feedback from client devices to limit/regulate transmission power control of access points from the perspective of the client device. The instant transmission power control beneficially ensures that clients located at a cell edge still receive sufficient coverage from access points and have sufficient overlap with adjacent cells for seamless roaming for the wireless stations while minimizing co-channel interference. In some embodiments, the present disclosure beneficially leverages 802.11h TPC Constraint to dynamically report client's view of the RF environment and cell size estimation.

Abstract: Techniques for automatically configuring and controlling a digital media device are described. A digital media device can be configured or controlled by a mobile device, e.g., a smart mobile phone. When the digital media device is being configured, the digital media device can broadcast a signal, indicating that the digital media device is requesting configuration information from a mobile device. A mobile device located in proximity of the digital media device, upon detecting the signal, can perform various security checks to determine that the request is legitimate, and then open a communication channel with the digital media device. The mobile device can provide user preferences of the mobile device, as well as credentials for accessing and downloading remote content, to the digital media device through the communication channel. Upon receiving the configuration information, the digital media device can use parameters in the configuration information as its settings.

Abstract: A method for performing a power scaling is discussed. The method performed by a user equipment (UE) includes determining, by the UE configured with dual connectivity to a master cell group (MCG) and a secondary cell group (SCG), a first power for a first transmission in a first subframe toward the MCG, determining a second power for a second transmission toward the SCG, and scaling down the second power for the second transmission toward the SCG if a total power related to the MCG and the SCG exceeds a maximum power, wherein the scaling down is performed if the first transmission toward the MCG in the first subframe is overlapped with the second transmission toward the SCG.

Abstract: Systems and methods for performing power control of physical channels in a communication system are provided. In one exemplary embodiment, a method in a wireless device (105, 200, 300, 400, 600) for performing power control of physical channels in a wireless communication system (100) may include determining (503, 703) transmission powers for transmissions (123a-d, 133a-b) on physical channels (121, 131) having different transmission time interval lengths (125, 135) according to respective power control loops. Further, the loops may specify the transmission powers for the physical channels based on a parameter (111) whose value is commonly updated or separately updated for the loops.

When the area update rate exceeds a predetermined update rate threshold, the method includes selecting a mitigation scheme configured to reduce an amount of power used by the device.
Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically determining which of a plurality of target devices should be connected with a source device using data regarding ambient signals about the source device. For example, a request is received for an identifier to which a source device is to connect. Data is received describing at least one ambient signal detected by the source device. The data is compared with a plurality of target device profiles. It is determined that the data matches a target device profile of the plurality of device profiles. An identifier associated with the determined target device profile is returned.
Abstract: A method during a random access procedure and apparatus is provided, where a first downlink transmit antenna port is selected for transmission on random access channel resources associated with the first downlink transmit antenna port using a first preamble transmit power. A second downlink transmit antenna port is then selected, which is different from the first downlink transmit antenna port, when a random access response message is not received within a random access response reception time window. A preamble transmit power adjustment value is then determined, based upon one or more downlink transmit antenna port specific parameters received from the wireless communication network. A second preamble transmit power based on the determined preamble transmit power adjustment value and the first preamble transmit power is determined.
