  • Publication number: 20250039728
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described herein for data transfer with energy harvesting (EH). EH may offer zero-energy consumption data communication. EH may impose intermittent connection drops due to battery shortage. If a certain condition is met (e.g., battery shortage), the RRC state or DRX/DTX configuration may be switched and data transfer operation may be suspended. EH may be performed to charge the battery/capacitor of the WTRU in the changed RRC state (e.g., new RRC state) or in a changed DRX/DTX operation (e.g., new DRX/DTX operation). If the state is transitioned or the DRX/DTX configuration is changed, protocol times (e.g., via all protocol timers) may be suspended and the user data maintained so that the transmitter and the receiver entities may resume data communication without any data loss or with very small loss of data.

  • Publication number: 20250008501
    Abstract: A wireless telecommunication system includes base stations for communicating with terminal devices. One or more base stations support a power boost operating mode in which a base station's available transmission power is concentrated in a subset of its available transmission resources to provide enhanced transmission powers as compared to transmission powers on these transmission resources when the base station is not operating in the power boost mode. A base station establishes an extent to which one or more base stations in the wireless telecommunications system support the power boost operating mode conveys an indication of this to a terminal device. The terminal device receives the indication and uses the corresponding 10 information to control its acquisition of a base station of the wireless telecommunication system, for example by taking account of which base stations support power boosting and/or when power boosting is supported during a cell attach procedure.

  • Publication number: 20240420578
    Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and instrumentalities are described herein relate to partial or delta updated flight path reporting. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may transmit a first message indicating flight path information is available. The WTRU may receive a second message including a flight path reporting configuration. The flight path reporting configuration may request the flight path information. The WTRU may transmit an initial flight path message within a third message. Based on information associated with changing from a previous flight path to an updated flight path, the WTRU may detect that a previous flight path is required to be updated with an updated flight path. The WTRU may transmit an indication that the updated flight path is available. The WTRU may receive a request for and subsequently transmit partial or delta updated flight path information.

  • Publication number: 20240349160
    Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and instrumentalities are described herein related to conditional triggers for flight path update indications. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive configuration information. The configuration information may indicate a trigger condition (e.g., threshold) associated with enabling transmission of a flight path update indication. The WTRU may determine that the threshold associated with enabling transmission of the flight path update indication is satisfied.

  • Publication number: 20240203145
    Abstract: A system for authenticating a subject identification document includes instructions causing a processor to receive a first image of the document, depicting, in RGB color space, the document illuminated by UV light, and transform the first image to a second image in YCbCr color space. The instructions cause the processor to divide the second image into regions of interest (ROIs), and, for each ROI, generate a color profile descriptor including first data elements associated with pixel color in the YCbCr color space, and second data elements associated with pixel intensity of pixels within the ROI. The instructions also cause the processor to generate a score for the second image based on a comparison of the color profile descriptor for each ROI to a corresponding ROI of an enrolled document template, and compare the score to a threshold to determine whether the document is authenticated.

  • Publication number: 20240203150
    Abstract: A system for authenticating a subject identification document includes a memory section storing computer-executable instructions and a memory section storing an enrolled document template, ROI information, and a codebook representing partitions of a [Cb, Cr] color plane. The system includes a processor in communication with the memory. The processor executes the instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive an image of the document, the image depicting, in a RGB color space, the document. The processor transforms the image of the document to a second image of the document in a YCbCr color space. The processor assigns pixels within a ROI in the second image corresponding to the ROI information to the partitions of the codebook. The processor generates a template based on respective counts of the pixels assigned to the partitions of the codebook. The processor compares the template to the enrolled document template to authenticate document.

The light source subassembly may include several semiconductor chips each hosting an array of emitters such s superluminescent light-emitting diodes. The semiconductor chips may be disposed side-by-side, with their emitting sides or facets coupled to the waveguide concentrator, which provides a tight array of output light ports on a common output plane of the concentrator. The output diverging beams at the array of output light ports are coupled to a collimator, which collimates the beams and couples them to an angular scanner for scanning the collimated light beams together across the field of view of the display.

  • Publication number: 20240103180
    Abstract: A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may receive, via configuration information, at least one prohibition condition configured to prohibit GNSS activity. The GNSS activity may comprise at least one of GNSS acquisition, GNSS reporting, or GNSS assistance information (AI) reporting. The WTRU may identify a trigger related to the GNSS activity. The WTRU may determine whether a prohibition condition is activated. The prohibition condition may comprise a condition based on a prohibition timer, a condition based on GNSS validity duration, or a condition based on a characteristic of the WTRU. When the prohibition condition is determined to be active, the WTRU may perform the GNSS activity in response to an override or termination of the prohibition condition and based on the prohibition condition being determined to be active.
