  • Publication number: 20240080224
    Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing mechanisms for a network to use Doppler shift pre-compensation values for communicating Tracking Reference Signal (TRS) to a user equipment (UE) and for implementing mechanisms for triggering the UE to measure the Doppler shift pre-compensated TRS. Some aspects of this disclosure relate to a base station including a processor that determines a Doppler shift pre-compensation value associated with the UE in response to determining that the UE is moving with a speed greater than a threshold. The processor further generates an aperiodic Tracking Reference Signal (AP-TRS) or a semi persistent TRS (SP-TRS) for the UE. The AP-TRS or the SP-TRS is decoupled from a periodic TRS (P-TRS). The processor further transmits the AP-TRS or the SP-TRS to the UE. The AP-TRS or the SP-TRS can be used for time and frequency synchronization.

  • Patent number: 11921699
    Abstract: Lease-based consistency may be implemented for databases to handle failovers. A database node may obtain a consistency lease that describes a point in time determined from a time-to-live amount added to a consistent point in time for database data. While the consistency lease is valid, Multi-version Concurrency Control (MVCC) snapshots assigned by the database node can be used to handle requests to access the database data. Once expired, the database node may have to renew the consistency lease in order to continue to handle write and read requests.

In a first part, radio resource control (RRC) signaling is sent from the network to the device to configure the device for switching only, skipping only, or switching and skipping. In a second part, first DCI is sent from the network to the device to indicate the particular PDCCH monitoring configuration to use for the PDCCH search space monitoring. Thereafter, network sends second DCI in the relevant PDCCH search space, where this second DCI schedules traffic. The device performs blind decoding to determine the second DCI in order to exchange the traffic.
