Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems, methods, and computer-readable media to enable a wireless communication device. In one embodiment a wireless communication device is configured to radiate a millimeter wave signal through a circular waveguide. A patch antenna is resonated in a Transverse Magnetic 1-0 (TM10) operating mode and electrically couples to an open end of the circular waveguide. The electric field pattern of the patch antenna is such that the millimeter wave signal is launched into the waveguide propagating in a Transverse Electric 1-1 (TE11) mode. In other embodiments, various other configurations may be used as described herein.

Abstract: An apparatus of a user equipment (UE) to perform tuning of a tunable antenna may comprise baseband circuitry and radio frequency (RF) circuitry. The baseband circuitry may determine an indication of throughput performance of a tunable antenna for the UE while the tunable antenna is in a first state. The RF circuitry may select a second state for the tunable antenna based on the indication of throughput performance for the tunable antenna. The second state may be selected to improve throughput performance of a data stream for the UE. The RF circuitry may also generate a control signal to transition the tunable antenna to the second state.

Abstract: Transmission power control methods and devices are described. In a transmission power control method, a triggering distance can be calculated based on one or more communication parameters. Using a proximity sensor, a proximity distance of the communication device with an external object can be calculated. The triggering distance and the proximity distance can be compared, and based on this comparison, a transmission power mode of the communication device can be determined and set.

Abstract: In one example a display assembly for an electronic device comprises a first cover member coupled to a second cover member to define a first chamber, a fluid disposed in the chamber, and a pressure sensor coupled to the chamber to detect a change in pressure in the fluid disposed in the first chamber. Other examples may be described.
