Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for wireless sensing. In an aspect, a sensing node transmits one or more first reference signals based on a hybrid beamforming codebook for transmit beamforming, wherein the hybrid beamforming codebook for transmit beamforming defines one or more transmit beams for communication purposes, detects a trigger to switch from the hybrid beamforming codebook for transmit beamforming to a sensing codebook for transmit beamforming, wherein the sensing codebook for transmit beamforming defines one or more transmit beams for sensing purposes, and transmits one or more second reference signals based on the sensing codebook for transmit beamforming, wherein each transmit beam for sensing purposes of the one or more transmit beams for sensing purposes uses fewer transmit antenna elements than a corresponding transmit beam for communication purposes of the one or more transmit beams for communication purposes.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for early determination of an operation mode in a Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) system are provided. A User Equipment (UE) determines a mode of operation of a NB-IoT network before decoding a broadcast channel which indicates the mode of operation, based on at least one synchronization signal received at the UE, wherein the mode of operation indicates what bandwidth resources are used in the network. The UE processes signals based on the determined mode of operation.

Abstract: Techniques for efficient and accurate frequency scans in Narrow Band-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) systems are provided. In an example, a user equipment (UE) searches for a cell on at least one of a plurality of frequency rasters based on a multi-stage search technique, wherein each stage of the multi-stage search searches the at least one frequency raster based on a different set of search parameters. The UE detects a cell on at least one of the frequency rasters based on the searching.

Abstract: Implementations directed to providing a computer-implemented integrated services platform include actions of providing a central repository storing a plurality of computer-readable process models, each process model defining at least one process specific to a respective industry, and one or more computer-implemented assets for executing the at least one process, receiving user input including one or more parameters, the user input being received through a process model navigation portal of the integrated services platform, retrieving one or more process models from the central repository, each of the one or more process models being responsive to the one or more parameters, receiving user selection of a process model of the one or more process models, and delivering one or more computer-implemented services based on the process model using a delivery portal, the one or more services being accessed by end users through a multi-layer architecture of the integrated services platform.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and program storage device for providing a secure password manager. A password manager provides a database comprising a header and N slots. An indicator is stored in a predetermine position of the header for identifying a number of valid password entries for the record. A hash value based on the content of the N slots is calculated and stored in the header. The data in the data structure is fed along with a master password through a key generator to create encrypted data.
