  • Publication number: 20260231024
    Abstract: In some examples of the techniques described herein, the latency of connected mode discontinuous reception (C-DRX) may be reduced by utilizing a low power wake-up signal (LP-WUS). For instance, physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring may be triggered based on the LP-WUS with the C-DRX configuration as a power saving procedure for a radio resource control (RRC) connected mode. In some approaches, the cycles of the additional PDCCH monitoring triggered by LP-WUS may be coordinated with C-DRX cycles. For example, an LP-WUS PDCCH monitoring cycle may evenly divide the C-DRX cycle. Utilizing the even division may allow, in one or more C-DRX cycles, a UE to perform a radio resource management (RRM) measurement in one or more time durations in which UE does not monitor the PDCCH. For instance, the RRM measurement procedure may be improved by reducing complexity of time durations in which RRM measurement may be performed.

  • Patent number: 12701508
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may implement techniques for receiving multiple bits of information via a single wake-up signal (WUS). For example, the UE may receive a configuration indicating a quantity of sequences associated with multiple sequences of a WUS. The UE may receive, while operating in a sleep mode, the WUS that includes multiple sequences, where each sequence is associated with a single bit and the multiple sequences indicate one or more operations. The UE may perform, while operating in the sleep mode, the one or more operations that are indicated by the multiple sequences of the WUS. In some other examples, the UE may implement multiple wake-up radios (WURs), such that the UE may receive multiple WUSs simultaneously. In some aspects, the UE may use the simultaneous WUSs received via the WURs for beam tracking or other operations.

  • Patent number: 12701512
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to methods and apparatus for time and frequency synchronization during a low-power wake up signal (LP-WUS) procedure. For example, an LP-WUS procedure may include transmission of signaling modulated via on-off keying (OOK). Such a signal requires less processing relative to an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulated signal and can be used to notify a wireless node that the transmitting device has data to transmit to the wireless node via an OFDM transmission. Accordingly, in response to the LP-WUS signal, the wireless node may power-on a main radio capable of receiving and demodulating the OFDM transmission.

  • Publication number: 20260189447
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A transmitting device may determine channel quality, and may shape frequency domain noise (e.g., crest factor reduction (CFR) related noise) to locations in which channel quality is poor. For example, by shaping channel noise to frequency resources with poor channel quality (e.g., instead of uniformly distributing such channel noise), transmissions may be more reliable, and quality on other frequency resources may be improved (e.g., without negatively impacting the quality of communications via frequency resources that already have a low channel quality), resulting in improved dynamic range of the signal (e.g., peak to average power ratio (PAPR)), which means that power efficiency is improved.

  • Patent number: 12666494
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may operate in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode. The UE may receive control messages indicating reference signal and wakeup signal (WUS) configurations. The reference signal configuration may indicate a reference signal position associated with reference signals and the WUS configuration may indicate a WUS position associated with WUSs and within a time-domain offset of the reference signal position. For example, the WUS position may be directly before or after the reference signal position. The offset may be based on durations associated with the UE transitioning (e.g., ramping up and ramping down) between sleep modes and an awake mode. The reference signal position may be within a DRX cycle period offset in time from the WUS position. The UE may monitor for the WUSs, the reference signals, and in some implementations, data, according to the offset.

  • Patent number: 12658931
    Abstract: A training signal generator for forming an input signal for an ADC-under-test includes a one-bit DAC and an analog low-pass filter. The one-bit DAC converts a binary sequence into a DAC output signal that is then filtered by the analog low-pass filter to form an ADC input signal. The ADC-under-test converts the ADC input signal into an ADC output signal. A digital low-pass filter converts the binary sequence into a plurality of samples. A digital signal processing system processes the plurality of samples and the ADC output signal to form an estimate of the ADC input signal. An ADC linearizer may then be trained to characterize a non-linear impairment of the ADC-under-test responsive to a comparison of the estimate of the ADC input signal and the ADC output signal.

  • Publication number: 20260150045
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a user equipment (UE) may include a main radio and a low-power wake-up radio. While operating in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state, the UE may use the low-power wake-up radio to monitor for signals. In some examples, the UE or a network entity may determine a relatively small amount of data (e.g., satisfying a threshold data volume) for communication between the UE and the network entity. The UE may receive a low-power synchronization signal via the low-power wake-up radio and may measure a signal strength or quality associated with the low-power synchronization signal. The UE may use this low-power synchronization signal measurement to determine whether to initiate a small data transmission (SDT) session for communicating the data. The UE may transmit an SDT initiation message if the low-power synchronization signal measurement satisfies a threshold value.
