  • Patent number: 12106542
    Abstract: Described are targets for use in optical tracking, as well as related methods. In some implementations, a target comprises a planar surface with an optically detectable pattern thereon, and at least one protrusion extending from the planar surface. In other implementations, a target comprises a planar surface with an optically detectable pattern thereon, with a specular reflective region. The optically detectable pattern provides accurate position information of the target, and provides accurate orientation information of the target about a first axis, but may not provide accurate orientation information of the target about other axes. The at least one protrusion or the specular reflective region provide accurate information of orientation of the target, particularly orientations about axes other than the first axis.

  • Patent number: 12075269
    Abstract: A system and method for measuring quality of experience (QoE) satisfaction for an application accessing a CSP network is described. A QoE requirement is associated with an application executed on a mobile device that is communicatively coupled to a CSP network. The QoE requirement for the application includes a QoE latency requirement, a QoE bandwidth requirement, and a QoE packet loss rate requirement. An edge-collection module gathers a radio access network (RAN) data set, and a core network (CN) data set that includes a network data analytics function (NWDAF) data set. The QoE network appliance generates a measured QoE score with the RAN data set, the CN data set, and the NWDAF data set. The measured QoE score is associated with the latency measurement, the bandwidth measurement, and the packet loss rate measurement. A subscriber ID is billed when a charging function determines the measured QoE satisfies the QoE requirement.

  • Patent number: 12022400
    Abstract: A method for performing wireless communication by a first apparatus is proposed. The method may comprise the steps of: determining power related to a sidelink (SL) transmission, on the basis of a downlink pathloss, wherein the SL transmission includes at least one from among a sidelink-synchronization signal/physical sidelink broadcast channel (S-SS/PSBCH) block transmission, a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH) transmission, a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmission, and a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) transmission; and performing the SL transmission on the basis of the power related to the SL transmission. For example, on the basis of being configured to monitor a downlink control information (DCI) format 0_0, the downlink pathloss may be determined on the basis of a first reference signal (RS) used for control of power related to a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission to be scheduled by the DCI format 0_0.

  • Patent number: 12004078
    Abstract: A searchable, portable network database of base station information can greatly simplify discovery, selection, and registration of user devices on a preferred cell in 5G or 6G. In addition, based on location, the user device can select the base station that is likely to provide the best signal. The network database can provide all of the static system information of the SSB message, which enables prospective user devices to receive downlink messages without searching for the SSB. In addition, the network database can provide all of the static system information contained in the SIB1 message, which enables prospective user devices to transmit uplink messages without searching for the SIB1. Initial synchronization can be obtained by receiving any broadcast from the base station, or by receiving timing signals from a navigation satellite, among other ways. The user device can thereby avoid most or all of the arduous prior-art cell discovery steps.
