Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a device including a processor configured to: detect a failed reception of time synchronization information at a follower device, wherein the time synchronization information provides an update of a clock of the follower device for synchronization to a clock of a leader device; determine whether a clock drift between the clock of the follower device and the clock of the leader device is less than a predefined drift threshold; and in the case that the clock drift is less than the predefined drift threshold, instruct an update of the clock of the follower device based on time synchronization information previously received at the follower device.

Abstract: An apparatus for a communication device, the apparatus may include a processor configured to: obtain channel metrics for a plurality of radio communication channels, each obtained channel metric is associated with a respective radio communication channel of the plurality of radio communication channels, generate a plurality of channel hopping sequences, each channel hopping sequence is representative of an allocation of the plurality of radio communication channels for a plurality of time slots, wherein a number of time slots allocated for each radio communication channel within each channel hopping sequence is based on the respective obtained channel metric, and select one of the plurality of channel hopping sequences based on a predefined criterion to communicate with a further communication device.

Abstract: A wireless station may include one or more processors. The wireless station may receive a no wireless fidelity (WiFi) signal indicating a parameter. The wireless station may also provide a scan signal comprising a scan list indicating a WiFi frequency band that a cellular modem is to scan for a WiFi signal based on the parameter. In addition, the wireless station may provide a mode signal based on the no WiFi signal. The mode signal may indicate that a WiFi modem is to enter a low power mode. Further, the wireless station may receive a detect signal indicating that the cellular modem detected the WiFi signal within the WiFi frequency band. The wireless station may provide a wake-up signal configured to cause the WiFi modem to enter an operational mode, the wake-up signal indicating a frequency of the detected WiFi signal.
