Abstract: Certain aspects relate to techniques for z-axis rotation estimation for compensating signaling transmitted between two or more nodes over a wireless channel where an antenna array of at least one of the nodes is misaligned about the z-axis relative to another node. For example, a transmitting node may transmit pilot signals defined by phase shifts to provide a receiving node with a basis for estimating the angle of rotation by which the antenna arrays are misaligned. The transmitting node may then take remedial action to address the misalignment based on the estimation.

Abstract: Techniques for optimizing technologies related to network path tracing and network delay measurements are described herein. Some of the techniques may include using an IPv6 header option and/or segment identifier field of a segment list or a TLV of a segment routing header as a telemetry data carrier. The techniques may also include using an SRv6 micro-segment (uSID) instruction to indicate to a node of a network that the node is to perform one or more path tracing actions and encapsulating the packet and forward. Additionally, the techniques may include using short interface identifiers corresponding to node interfaces to trace a packet path through a network. Further, the techniques may include using short timestamps to determine delay measurements associated with sending a packet through a network. In various examples, the techniques described above and herein may be used with each other to optimize network path tracing and delay measurement techniques.

Abstract: A system (500) includes an illumination system (502), a lens element (506), and a detector (504). The illumination system generates a beam of radiation (510) having a first spatial intensity distribution (800) at a pupil plane (528) and a second spatial intensity distribution (900) at a plane of a target (514). The first spatial intensity distribution comprises an annular intensity profile (802) or an intensity profile corresponding to three or more beams. The lens element focuses the beam onto the target. The second spatial intensity distribution is a conjugate of the first intensity distribution and has an intensity profile corresponding to a central beam (902) and one or more side lobes (904) that are substantially isolated from the central beam. The central beam has a beam diameter of approximately 20 microns or less at the target. The detector receives radiation scattered by the target and generates a measurement signal based on the received radiation.

Abstract: A UE may receive a configuration of one or more SP resources for CLI and/or SI measurement, and receive, from the base station, a MAC-CE activating the configured one or more SP resources for CLI and/or SI measurements. The UE may measure the CLI and/or SI based on interference signal and report a CLI report, including the measured CLI and/or SI to the base station. The UE may estimate average CL based on an average transmission power of the interference signal over multiple slots from an aggressor UE, and the base station may use the estimated average CL to determine CLI for aggressor UE based on CLI reciprocity.

Abstract: This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for full-duplex communications in wireless networks. Some implementations more specifically relate to multiple bandwidth parts (BWPs), active concurrently, for communications in a given direction (such as a downlink (DL) direction or an uplink (UL) direction) between a user equipment (UE) and a base station. For example, a first active BWP may be used for DL or UL communications in a half-duplex (HD) slot and a second active BWP may be used for DL or UL communications in an adjacent full-duplex (FD) slot. In some implementations, the UE may further change a status of one or more active BWPs after a given amount of time has elapsed. For example, the UE may change the states of an active BWP by deactivating the active BWP, switching the active BWP to a default BWP, or changing a role assigned to the active BWP.

Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed for frequency-based predistortion signal generation. In an example aspect, the apparatus includes a predistortion linearizer circuit configured to be coupled to an input of an amplifier. The amplifier has non-linearities associated with multiple frequencies. The multiple frequencies include a first subset of frequencies and a second subset of frequencies. The predistortion linearizer circuit is also configured to accept an input signal. The predistortion linearizer circuit is additionally configured to generate, based on the input signal, a compensation signal to attenuate the non-linearities existing within the first subset of frequencies more than the non-linearities existing within the second subset of frequencies. The predistortion linearizer circuit is further configured to generate a pre-distorted signal based on the input signal and the compensation signal.

The resulting control of the duplex mode switching reduces blocking and reduces power consumption.

Abstract: A method for signal request caching is described. Signal requests are received at a signal processor from a plurality of computing devices. The received signal requests are routed to a signal data store. An ingestion rate of the received signal requests is monitored by the signal processor. When the ingestion rate meets a signal request rate threshold of the signal data store, overflow signal requests of the received signal requests are automatically routed to an intermediate cache instead of the signal data store. The overflow signal requests within the intermediate cache are aggregated into one or more signal packages, each of the one or more signal packages containing a plurality of overflow signal requests. The one or more signal packages are stored at the signal data store.

Abstract: A UE may receive DCI from a first TRP scheduling a transmission of a TB from the first TRP and a second TRP. The UE may receive, from the first TRP a first set of CBGs of the TB in a first set of resources. The UE may receive, from the second TRP a second set of CBGs of the TB in a second set of resources that is different than the first set of resources. The first set of CBGs may be received based on a first MCS and the second set of CBGs may be received based on a second MCS. The UE may transmit, in a full-duplex mode, a message to the first TRP. The transmission to the first TRP may overlap in time with the reception from the first TRP. Accordingly, the first MCS may be lower than the second MCS.
