  • Patent number: 11950154
    Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to perform a switch of a TCI state from a serving cell to a neighbor cell. A UE determines whether the state of the neighbor cell is known or unknown and whether the neighbor cell's TCI state is known or unknown. The total delay time to perform the TCI state switch can impacted by this the known/unknown statuses. Other factors can also contribute to the total delay time. The UE may also signal its capability to monitor the TCI state of the neighbor cell and its capability to switch to such a TCI state.

  • Publication number: 20240104071
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for a decision layer of a multi-layer data platform. The decision layer may process application queries and serve the queries based on a dataset of previously generated and indexed data or, as a last resort, queries the blockchain node directly. Using indexed blockchain data to serve application queries reduces latency and downtime of traditional systems that direct queries to blockchain nodes immediately. Furthermore, the decision layer overcomes high latency and downtime issues associated with a pool of load-balanced nodes by reducing the number of direct queries to a blockchain. When applications rely on data directly queried from a blockchain, they are susceptible to limited availability, a problem that the decision layer mitigates with indexed and updated blockchain data.
