  • Publication number: 20240400205
    Abstract: A water supply system for an aircraft and a method for draining water from or passing air into or out of a buffer tank of a water supply system in an aircraft. The system includes a water buffer tank having a fluid inlet and outlet, a supply arrangement for selective flow from the fluid outlet to a user equipment, and a relief arrangement for permitting fluid flow from the fluid outlet. The relief arrangement includes a relief conduit having a separation element with a separation element inlet positioned above a separation element outlet and separated therefrom by a separation distance such that water flowing in a forwards direction therethrough flows from the inlet to the outlet across the separation distance, and water flowing in a reverse direction therethrough flows into the separation element outlet and is retained therein, and wherein the separation element is defined by the user equipment.

  • Publication number: 20240397433
    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for selective uplink transmission power boosting for a user equipment (UE) are provided. One method may include determining, by a UE, for a given transmission or service, whether to use a first uplink transmission power or a second uplink transmission power over a radio channel bandwidth, based on obtained configuration information. The user equipment is configured to support the first uplink transmission power associated with a first power limit over the radio channel bandwidth and the second uplink transmission power associated with a second power limit over the radio channel bandwidth, and the second uplink transmission power is equal to or higher than the first uplink transmission power. The method may then include transmitting the transmission or service applying the determined first or second uplink transmission power limit.

  • Publication number: 20240356604
    Abstract: A network element in a wireless network sends, to a target UE, configuration of CSI RSs for use in a time-frequency resource space of a PDSCH. The configuration informs the UE to use the CSI RSs for interference parameter detection of co-scheduled UE(s) in the PDSCH. The network element transmits, toward the target UE, the CSI RSs. A target UE in a wireless network receives, from a network element, configuration of CSI RSs for use in a time-frequency resource space of a physical downlink shared channel. The configuration informs the target UE to use the CSI RSs for interference parameter detection of co-scheduled UE(s) in the PDSCH. The target UE receives, from the network element, the CSI RSs. The target UE performs the interference parameter detection using the CSI RSs.
