  • Patent number: 12777351
    Abstract: Mechanism on disruptive signal discovery is provided. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, if a first device determines that an anomaly behavior occurs at a second device, the first device transmits a measurement configuration to a set of third devices. The measurement configuration is used for detecting a source of the anomaly behavior. The set of third devices measure a disruptive signal based on the measurement configuration and transmit information relating to the second device to the first device. In this way, the source of the anomaly behavior can be detected and localized. Moreover, the integrity of the positioning session can be preserved.

    Abstract: A wireless device receives one or more messages that may include: a remaining time threshold; a first priority value; and a second priority value, wherein the first priority value being smaller than the second priority value. The wireless device determines, at a time of a first symbol of a transmission, that a priority of a logical channel for logical channel prioritization (LCP) is based on one of the first priority value and the second priority value. The determination is based on a comparison between: a remaining time, of a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) service data unit (SDU), associated with the logical channel; and the remaining time threshold. The wireless device transmits one or more data units associated with the logical channel based on the determined priority and the LCP.

  • Publication number: 20260323669
    Abstract: A first wireless device determines that one or more first physical sidelink feedback channels (PSFCHs) are scheduled for transmission via a PSFCH resource and that one or more second PSFCHs are scheduled for reception via the same PSFCH resource. The device prioritizes a first PSFCH over a second PSFCH based on the first PSFCH containing beam information, where the first PSFCH and the second PSFCH are from different ones of the first PSFCHs or the second PSFCHs. Based on the prioritization, the device transmits the first PSFCH via the PSFCH resource when the first PSFCH is from the one or more first PSFCHs, or receives the first PSFCH via the PSFCH resource when the first PSFCH is from the one or more second PSFCHs.
