Abstract: Described herein is a user equipment (UE) configured to determine a plurality of connection durations available at the location of the UE from a respective plurality of satellites of a non-terrestrial network (NTN) and to select a satellite from the plurality of satellites based on the available connection durations.

Abstract: A system comprises a source communication device, a test device, and a receive communication device. The source communication device is configured to receive a device identifier (ID) of the test device; send a communication message request to the test device; receive a communication log comprising a pair identifier based on the communication message; send a testing instruction to the test device; receive a second communication log from the receive communication device; and correlate the device ID with the second device ID to obtain the wireless network parameters for the test device. The test device is configured to receive the communication message request; send a communication message responsive to receiving the communication message request to the receive communication device. The receive communication device is configured to create a communication log corresponding to the communication message; and send the communication log and the second communication log to the source communication device.

Abstract: Systems and methods discussed herein are directed to combining non-onboard diagnostic (OBD) codes with OBD codes to provide a list of codes that may be used to provide information to a user regarding a vehicle. For example, an auxiliary monitoring device may be included in a vehicle in the form of one or more sensors, e.g., cameras, image sensors, movement sensors, audio sensors, variable reluctance (VR) sensors, infrared (IR) sensors, odor sensors, etc., that may collect vehicle information that is not available through the vehicle's OBD port. The auxiliary monitoring device may obtain the information and convert the information into a corresponding non-OBD code. The auxiliary monitoring device thus complements an OBD monitoring device included in the vehicle that is coupled to the vehicle's OBD port to obtain OBD codes therefrom.
