Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for Embodiments described herein provide for the use of machine learning, artificial intelligence, and/or other techniques for network-implemented spam call detection. Calls may be screened prior to notifying a called User Equipment (“UE”) that a call has been placed to the called UE. A Machine Learning Spam Detection Component (“MLSDC”) may screen a call, such as a voice call, by initiating a call session between the MLSDC and a calling UE, from which the call was requested. Via the established call session, the MLSDC may receive communications, such as voice communications, from the UE, and may determine a measure of likelihood that the call request is associated with spam by using machine learning or other techniques to compare the received communications against one or more models that indicate attributes of calls that have been identified as spam.

Some example embodiments are directed towards user equipment for determining the control timing configuration as discussed above.

Abstract: According to certain embodiments, a method in a wireless device includes generating a signal comprising repeating segments for transmission in a subslot duration transmission time interval (TTI) to a network node. The signal comprising the repeating segments is transmitted to the network node in the subslot duration TTI.

Abstract: In a wireless communication system (100), an access node (110) configures, for a user equipment, UE (105), each symbol in a slot (68a) individually as one of multiple possible symbol types. The types including an uplink symbol, a downlink symbol, and a different symbol. The access node (110) transmits, to the UE (105), a slot format indicator, SFI, specifying a number of downlink symbols in the slot (68a) and a number of uplink symbols in the slot (68a), and indicating whether or not the slot (68a) includes an unspecified number of different symbols. The UE (105) receives, from the access node (110), the SFI for the slot (68a), and determines the type of each of the symbols in the slot (68a) based on the number of uplink symbols and the number of downlink symbols.
