Publication number: 20240056988Abstract: User equipment to transmit signals (e.g., concurrently) using multiple SIMs. If the user equipment determines to perform transmission power back-off due to operating using the multiple SIMs (MuSIM operation), the user equipment sends an indication to each network corresponding to each SIM that it is performing the power back-off. If a network supports MuSIM operation, then the user equipment sends an indication that it is performing the power back-off due to MuSIM operation (e.g., an MuSIM Maximum Power Reduction (M-MPR) indication). For such a network, it is assumed that the M-MPR indication would be standardized under an applicable specification. If a network does not support MuSIM operation (e.g., a legacy network), then the user equipment leverages a legacy power back-off indication (e.g., a Power Management Maximum Power Reduction (P-MPR) indication) to indicate to the network that it is performing a power back-off.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2022Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Alexander Sayenko, Daniel Popp, Anatoliy S. Ioffe, Fucheng Wang, Camila Priale Olivares

Publication number: 20240031933Abstract: A wake-up signal (WUS) network (separate from a cellular network) includes WUS nodes that broadcast WUSs targeting WUS receivers of user equipment (UE). The WUSs may have low frequencies, such as within a television whitespace spectrum. When the cellular network determines that a UE should enter a power saving mode, or when a cellular receiver of the UE enters an idle state, the cellular network may request resources for the UE from a WUS node and activate a WUS receiver of the UE. When the cellular network has data to send to the UE or a threshold time has expired, the cellular network may request a WUS from the WUS network, which broadcasts the WUS that may be received by the UE. If the UE has data to transmit to the cellular network, the cellular network may request that the WUS node stop providing resources to the UE.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2022Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Anatoliy S Ioffe, Alexander Sayenko, Camila Priale Olivares, Brandy Jo F Sykes, Sharad Sambhwani

Patent number: 11856599Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to techniques for measuring and/or detecting a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) of a received signal at a user equipment (UE). The received signal may include a desired signal, co-channel interference, adjacent channel interference, and an in-band blocker. The UE may filter (e.g., remove) the various interferences and in-band blocker. The UE may determine or measure a power (or Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)) of the desired signal and a power (or RSSI) of the co-channel interference separately because the desired signal and the co-channel interference overlap in frequency. To do so, the UE may determine a total power of the received signal including the desired signal and co-channel interference. The UE may receive the desired signal again while an uplink transmission is deactivated (and thus without the interference). The UE may then calculate the SIR based on the total power and the power of the desired signal.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2022Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Fucheng Wang, Anatoliy Sergey Ioffe, Camila Priale Olivares, Daniel Popp, Alexander Sayenko, Elmar Wagner

Publication number: 20230131663Abstract: User equipment that is capable of filtering for an irregular bandwidth of an allocated channel may send an indication of this capability to a network, which may then configure the channel to a next higher standard channel size, enabling the user equipment to filter this larger channel bandwidth to the irregular bandwidth. User equipment that is not capable of filtering for the irregular bandwidth may send an indication that it does not have this capability to the network, which may then configure the channel to a next lower standard channel size, thus avoiding the need for the user equipment to filter a larger channel bandwidth to the irregular bandwidth. In cases where the network detects that a blocking signal is not present that may interfere with the allocated channel, the network may configure the channel to the next higher standard channel size.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2022Publication date: April 27, 2023Inventors: Alexander Sayenko, Fucheng Wang, Camila Priale Olivares, Elmar Wagner, Anatoliy S Ioffe

Publication number: 20220346035Abstract: User equipment may configure a transmitter or receiver to conform to regulations or standards of a geographical region to communicate with non-terrestrial networks (e.g., satellite networks). In one embodiment, the user equipment may receive an indication of a regulation or standard to which to conform to from a terrestrial communication node, and apply an emission mask to the transmitter based on the regulation or standard. The user equipment may additionally or alternatively configure the receiver to be compliant with a noise level tolerance of a received signal specified by the regulation or standard. In some embodiments, the user equipment may implement a frequency offset between the received signal and an interfering signal associated with the noise level tolerance that is scaled based at least on a channel bandwidth associated with the desired signal. Moreover, the user equipment may scale the noise level tolerance based on the frequency offset.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 8, 2022Publication date: October 27, 2022Inventors: Anatoliy S.

Publication number: 20220322351Abstract: Aggregated channel bandwidth classes that overlap in frequency are allocated for a fallback group. The fallback group may define an increased or maximum bandwidth of aggregated component carriers as allocated by a network. By enabling the aggregated channel bandwidth classes for a fallback group to overlap in frequency, for an available aggregated channel bandwidth, a first aggregated channel bandwidth class may be implemented using a first number of component carriers, and a second aggregated channel bandwidth class may be implemented using a second number of component carriers different from the first. The different number of component carriers may enable more flexibility to more fully utilize the available aggregated channel bandwidth for communication.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2022Publication date: October 6, 2022Inventors: Fucheng Wang, Anatoliy S.

Publication number: 20220225355Abstract: An electronic device may communicate with a wireless base station using a 5G New Radio communications protocol. The base station may balance control timing and receiver performance for the devices in its cell by scheduling communications based on the communications capabilities of each device. This may ensure that the base station is able to provide communications with satisfactory control timing and receiver performance even if multiple different types of device are within its cell. In addition, the device may perform open loop transmit power control operations and then closed loop power control operations. To minimize complexity of the device, the device may only transmit at a maximum output power level during the open loop operations. If desired, the device may only transmit at the maximum output power level when the device is unable to decode a downlink reference signal transmitted by the base station within a predetermined number of symbols.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2022Publication date: July 14, 2022Inventors: Anatoliy S.
