Abstract: Method and apparatus are provided for updating unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) status in unmanned aircraft system (UAS) ecosystem. In accordance with some implementation, a UE may determine a change in flight state of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The UE upon such determination may communicating to an unmanned aerial system traffic management (UTM) the fight state via a wireless wide area network (WWAN). This may allow the UTM to more efficiently manage and allocate resources to UAVs.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. One technique includes identifying, by a user equipment (UE), a periodic time window for the UE to access a network, and transmitting an indication of the periodic time window to the network in a random access channel transmission. The technique also describes receiving, from the network based at least in part on the periodic time window, an indication of uplink resources allocated to the UE during the identified periodic time window. Another technique includes receiving, from a UE in a random access channel transmission, an indication of a periodic time window for the UE to access the network. The technique also includes determining, based at least in part on the periodic time window, uplink resources for the UE to access the network during instances of the identified periodic time window and transmit an indication of the uplink resources.

In an aspect, an electronic device detects that the audio jack is plugged into the audio socket, accesses application layer log data related to the audio socket, determines that the type of the audio socket does not match the type of the audio jack based on the application layer log data, and in response to determining that the type of the audio socket does not match the type of the audio jack, displays a notification of the mismatch on a user interface of the electronic device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described for redirection of a session initiation protocol (SIP) INVITE. A multi-subscriber identification module user equipment (multi-SIM UE) may intelligently determine when to redirect a SIP INVITE message to control on which of multiple networks a communication session is established. The multi-SIM UE may receive a SIP INVITE from a first user equipment (UE) requesting to establish a SIP session on a first network, the SIP INVITE including a first network address of the multi-SIM UE that is associated with a first SIM of the multi-SIM UE. The multi-SIM UE may, based at least in part on determining that a redirection criterion is satisfied, transmit a SIP redirection response including a second network address of the multi-SIM UE on a second network that is associated with a second SIM of the multi-SIM UE.
