  • Patent number: 12659803
    Abstract: A user equipment may use a learning model to predict user behavior, or traffic corresponding thereto, and may transmit, to a radio network node, a prediction report indicative of the predicted behavior/traffic. Based on the prediction report the node may proactively schedule predicted downlink resources to facilitate delivery, to the user equipment, of predicted downlink traffic that may correspond to the indicated predicted behavior/traffic. The user equipment may indicate that successfully decoded downlink traffic, received from the node according to the scheduled predicted downlink resources, is invalid, or not usable, by avoiding transmission of HARQ feedback corresponding to the received traffic or by transmitting an invalid scheduled resource indication.

  • Patent number: 12634109
    Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for synchronizing clocks and determining a range distance between two clocks using one or more timing signals that are communicated between the clocks. The determination can be made to also account for movement between the clocks such as if the clocks are converging (i.e., the distance between them is decreasing over time) or diverging (i., the distance between the clocks is increasing over time.) The systems and methods can utilize timing signals transmitted between two clocks that are synchronizing with another using the precision time protocol. In order to account for the increasing or decreasing distance between the clocks, the systems and methods can utilize Doppler shift data taken between the clocks to apply a correction factor to the timing signals. The timing signals and correction factor can be utilized to also determine a range distance between the clocks.

  • Patent number: 12634683
    Abstract: This application describes techniques for dynamic feature-dependent electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile provisioning for wireless devices, including provisioning of device-compatible eSIM profiles and mitigation of provisioned device-incompatible eSIM profiles. A wireless device can provide information regarding additional device capabilities indicating support (or lack thereof) for optional cellular wireless standard features to a provisioning server, which can select an eSIM profile matched to the wireless device. In some cases, a wireless device detects an error condition resulting from enabling a device-incompatible eSIM profile on an embedded universal circuit card (eUICC) of the wireless device, disables the errant eSIM profile, and notifies a provisioning server regarding the error condition. The provisioning server can account for the device compatibility when providing additional eSIM profiles to the wireless device.
