Abstract: A system for interface and/or device user identity verification comprises a user device with a user interface and a camera, a system controller in communication with the user device and a databank. The databank comprises a stored image for each user as well as input command types associated therewith and requiring real time image identification. When a real time user command is inputted via the user interface and corresponds to a stored input command type, the stored image associated therewith is identified and a real time image of the real time user is captured via the camera. The system determines whether the captured image corresponds to the identified stored image. The real time input command is allowed to be executed if the captured image corresponds to the identified stored image and is prevented from being executed if the captured image does not correspond to the identified stored image.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Aspects of the disclosure relate to enhanced load reporting between network entities (e.g., provided by a distributed unit (DU) to a centralized unit (CU) or by a CU to another CU). In some examples, the CU may provide one or more triggering events which may be used by the DU (or a second CU) to trigger the provisioning of a load report to the CU. Accordingly, the DU (or second CU) may be able to initiate a load report without relying on periodic reporting criteria. In some examples, the DU may initiate a load report to the CU without being configured with triggering events. In some examples, a DU may report measurements made associated with a communications load involving communications with both a parent network entity (e.g., a CU) and at least one child network entity (e.g., a user equipment).
