Abstract: A method for defining antenna in module (AiM) placement within a user device can include configuring a simulation of antenna gain of antenna in module (AiM) components. The simulation can include as an output a cumulative distribution function (CDF) representing AiM coverage. The method can include identifying a first parameter of a set of antenna in module (AiM) placement parameters that has a largest effect on an antenna performance criterion observed in the simulation. The method can include adjusting other parameters based on the first parameter and specifying final placement of the AiM. An apparatus can include antennas and a radio front end including active circuitry and passive circuitry. The passive circuitry can be energized by a signal at a center frequency for the apparatus. The passive circuitry can store electrical charge and power on the active circuitry when charge reaches a threshold.

Abstract: An apparatus of a communication device, the apparatus comprising a processor configured to: establish a first connection through a first radio frequency interface; establish a second connection through a second radio frequency interface, wherein the first connection is a non-secure connection and the second connection is a secure connection; determine a result representing whether data is routed for the first connection or the second connection; instruct the data to be transmitted with one of the first connection or the second connection based on the result.

Abstract: An apparatus of a radio communication device, the apparatus may include a processor configured to: determine a radiation pattern for a plurality of channels of a short-range wireless communication network, wherein the radiation pattern is representative of quality metrics for the plurality of channels at a plurality of directions relative to the radio communication device; determine a location of a further radio communication device; configure a parameter of a connection with the further radio communication device based on the radiation pattern and the location of the further radio communication device.

Abstract: A communication device is provided including a first radio configured to determine a position of another communication device, wherein the first radio is a wideband near-field communication radio; and a second radio configured to form a communication link with the other communication device, wherein the second radio is a wireless local area network radio configured to generate a directional beam to form the communication link based on a parameter set; and an interface controller configured to determine the parameter set based on the determined position of the other communication device and to provide the parameter set to the second radio.

Abstract: An apparatus for a user equipment (UE), the apparatus including: a processor configured to: establish a direct wireless connection with a further UE, decode cellular network information received from the further UE via direct communication over the established direct wireless connection, wherein the cellular network information comprises information associated with a cell selected by the further UE for cellular communication, and configure cellular communications with a cellular network access node of the cell based on the decoded cellular network information.

Abstract: A wireless station may include one or more processors. The wireless station may receive a no wireless fidelity (WiFi) signal indicating a parameter. The wireless station may also provide a scan signal comprising a scan list indicating a WiFi frequency band that a cellular modem is to scan for a WiFi signal based on the parameter. In addition, the wireless station may provide a mode signal based on the no WiFi signal. The mode signal may indicate that a WiFi modem is to enter a low power mode. Further, the wireless station may receive a detect signal indicating that the cellular modem detected the WiFi signal within the WiFi frequency band. The wireless station may provide a wake-up signal configured to cause the WiFi modem to enter an operational mode, the wake-up signal indicating a frequency of the detected WiFi signal.
