Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing explicit MU-MIMO pairing indicator. Methods include maintaining a profile of one or more wireless devices in a wireless network using MU-MIMO. Methods further include receiving an indicator from one or more access nodes identifying MU-MIMO pairing for one or more wireless devices. Methods further include adjusting one or more of beamforming, layer assignment or throughput of the wireless network.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for establishing single-layer connections between user equipment (UEs) and a telecommunications network based on the UEs' device types. UEs are classified as either stationary devices or mobile devices based on device information, such as subscriber identity module (SIM) profiles. When a multi-layer connection should not be maintained with a UE, if the UE is classified as a stationary device, the telecommunications network establishes a spatial multiplexing single layer (SMSL) connection with the UE. If the UE is classified as a mobile device, the telecommunications network establishes a single input, single output (SISO) connection with the UE.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium that provide a sanctuary antenna for mitigating FDD carrier degradation during TDD antenna sharing are provided. The method begins with determining that the carrier degradation will occur during at least one FDD receive signal slot in a FDD frequency band on at least one antenna of the TDD frequency band based on the at least one FDD receive signal slot coinciding with at least one scheduled TDD transmit slot. Then, based on the determining, switching at least one scheduled FDD receive signal slot from the at least one antenna of the TDD frequency band to a sanctuary antenna occurs. The sanctuary antenna is used for a duration of at least one sounding reference signal (SRS) symbol.

Abstract: Systems, methods and devices are provided for providing millimeter wave coverage for capable devices connected to standalone networks. Methods include receiving a capability report and a measurement report from a wireless device and determining based on the capability report that the wireless device supports millimeter wave (mmWave) coverage, but does not support new radio dual connectivity (NRDC). Methods provided herein further include determining, based on the measurement report, that the wireless device is in a location having a threshold strength of mmWave coverage; and transitioning the wireless device to another access node to allow for the mm Wave coverage.

Abstract: A system for reading and reporting data from a production of an alcoholic beverage includes a data capture device having a sensor end for placement within a liquid. The sensor end has at least two sensors for measuring data related to the liquid. A transmitter located within the data capture device is coupled to the at least two sensors and the transmitter periodically transmits the data related to the liquid. Color transmission or reflection of the liquid is used to measure clarity, color of the liquid, and relative sugar content.
