Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. Some wireless communications network may operate in accordance with an open-RAN (ORAN) network specification which may support functional splitting between the ORAN distributed unit (O-DU) and the ORAN radio unit (RU). The O-DU may communicate with the O-RU using control messaging. The control message may include a resource resource element (RE) mask and a resource symbol mask, the resource RE mask indicating frequency resources to be allocated for a reference signal transmission across a set of antenna ports and the resource symbol mask indicating time resources to be allocated for the reference signal transmission. Additionally or alternatively, the O-DU may transmit a control message including a puncturing resource RE mask indicating frequency resources for applying a puncturing pattern and a symbol mask indicating time resources for applying the puncturing pattern during a transmission.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for physical resource block allocation alignment. An example method, performed at a first network entity, includes transmitting beamforming weights (BFWs) to a second network entity, each beamforming weight to be applied to a different bundle of one or more physical resource blocks (PRBs), transmitting, to the second network entity, one or more parameters indicative of a misalignment between an allocation of PRBs and at least one logical structure, and processing signals transmitted between the first and second network entities, with beamforming applied to PRB bundles using the BFWs, in accordance with the one or more parameters.

Abstract: Various example embodiments relate to computation of a shared exponent for numbers. A plurality of bit vectors may be obtained. A bitwise OR-operation may be performed for the plurality of bit vectors to obtain an auxiliary bit vector. The shared exponent may be then determined based on a position of a most significant bit having value equal to one in the auxiliary bit vector. The representation for the plurality of bit vectors may be then determined based on the shared exponent. Apparatuses, methods, and computer programs are disclosed.

Abstract: A switching device adapted to be installed behind an opaque wall (32) so as not to be visible from the outside of the wall and intended to switch at least one electrical device (44) on. This switching device includes a first module (10) and a second module (12) adapted to make the connection between the device and a power source. The first module includes a capacitive sensor (16) having a capacitor on a printed circuit board adapted to change its capacitance value when the hand (34) of a user on the outside is placed near the wall where the device is installed. The capacitor is included in a metal frame whose function is to define the capacitive field due to the capacitor in the plane of the board and to maximize this field perpendicular to the plane of the board.
