Abstract: Solutions are disclosed that provide intelligent adaptive measurement gaps for low mobility user equipment (UEs), such as home internet access points. Because low mobility (stationary use) UE do not move, or move only infrequently, the frequency for of handovers to neighboring cells is reduced, lowering the urgency of measuring signal reception from neighboring cells. A wireless network determines that a first UE is associated with a stationary use, and that a second UE is not. The network transmits a first radio resource control (RRC) message specifying a measurement gap repetition period (MGRP) and an indication to skip at least one measurement gap, to the first UE, and transmits a second RRC message specifying the MGRP, without an indication to skip a measurement gap, to the second UE. In some examples, the MGRP is indicated as having one of four values: 20 milliseconds (ms), 40 ms, 80 ms, and 160 ms.

Abstract: This disclosure discusses railless devices for attaching solar modules to roofs. The devices are designed to snap into detented solar module frames. The devices include end clamps and mid clamps with roof-attachment brackets and module-attachment clamps. The roof-attachment bracket includes a riser extending upward from a base. A threaded aperture extends downward into the riser through the riser-top. The module-attachment clamp is secured over the riser-top by a threaded fastener. The threaded fastener extends through the module-attachment clamp and into the threaded aperture. The module-attachment clamp snaps on to detents in the frame of the solar module. End clamps and mid clamps may be pre-attached to the solar modules at the jobsite to form solar module assemblies that can later be secured to the roof. The structure of the mounting components allows subsequent rows of solar module assemblies to simply snap into previous rows of solar module assemblies.

Abstract: The system receives orbital information for at least one satellite of a non-terrestrial network. The orbital information includes the location and velocity of the at least one satellite. The system determines a location of a wireless device and the wireless device's location relative to the at least one satellite. The system calculates a connectivity window based on the relative location. The connectivity window is a time period at the location of the wireless device during which the wireless device receives a signal from the at least one satellite to perform a network connection with the non-terrestrial network. The system connects the wireless device to the non-terrestrial network when the connectivity window of the at least one satellite is open. The system prevents the wireless device from searching for a network connection to the non-terrestrial network when the wireless device is outside the connectivity window of the at least one satellite.

Abstract: Solutions are disclosed that perform intelligent select whether to transmit a system information block 1 (SIB1) message to a user equipment (UE) during a handover. The wireless network determines whether the UE will be moving to a target basestation having a different tracking area code (TAC) than the source basestation. If so, the source basestation sends the SIB1 for the target basestation to the UE with the handover command, so that the UE is alerted to perform a mobility registration update (MRU) with the new TAC. However, if the UE will be moving to a target basestation having the same TAC as the source basestation, the source basestation sends the handover command without the SIB1 for the target basestation, to save network bandwidth. In some examples, the source basestation queries the target basestation to learn the TAC of the target basestation.
