Abstract: A computing device, includes one or more processors, configured to receive first data corresponding to a first radiofrequency signal received from a first wireless communication device, and second data corresponding to a second radiofrequency signal received from a second wireless communication device; select either the first wireless communication device or the second wireless communication device as a repeater device based on the first data or the second data according to one or more repeater selection criteria; instruct a transceiver to send a third radiofrequency signal to the repeater device, wherein the third radiofrequency signal comprises third data and an instruction for the repeater device to repeat the third data to the third wireless communication device.

Abstract: For example, an apparatus may include a computing device housing configured to house a motherboard of a computing device, the computing device housing including a base surface, a top surface opposite to the base surface, and a side-wall surface between the base surface and the top surface; and a light communicator configured to extend outward from the side-wall surface of the housing to communicate modulated light of a Visible Light Communication (VLC) transmission in a range of VLC directions.

Abstract: For example, a User Equipment (UE) may be configured to generate a client identity element including a user identifier (ID) and a device ID, the user ID based on an identity of a user of the UE, the device ID based on a device identifier of the UE; transmit a registration message from the UE to a device management server to register the UE, the registration message including the client identity element; and transmit a service request to a service provider to initiate access of the UE to a service of the service provider, wherein the service request includes the client identity element.

Abstract: A wireless station may include one or more processors. The one or more processors may determine data is to be transferred. The one or more processors may also determine a data type of the data corresponds to a priority data type. In addition, the one or more processors may provide a data type signal indicating the data type corresponds to the priority data type. Further, the one or more processors may receive a data type confirmation signal in response to the data type signal. The one or more processors may create a dedicated bearer with a network device based on the data type confirmation signal. The one or more processors may also instruct the data to be transferred via the dedicated bearer.

Abstract: An apparatus for a wireless device includes a signal generation circuit configured to generate a reference signal and modify the reference signal to obtain an adjusted reference signal. The apparatus further includes a signal processing circuit configured to cause transmission of the adjusted reference signal via one or more antennas. A reflected signal received by the one or more antennas is detected. The reflected signal corresponds to the adjusted reference signal. A comparison of the reflected signal is performed with a feedback signal. The feedback signal is generated based on the reference signal. An atmospheric attenuation level for the location of the wireless device is determined based on the comparison. A notification is generated based on the atmospheric attenuation level.

Abstract: A portable computing device comprises a first body portion, a second body portion and a hinge connecting the first body portion and the second body portion. An antenna for a radio frequency transceiver is placed in a vicinity of the hinge.
