Abstract: A method includes determining a quality of service class identifier (QCI) level for an application running on a user device, selecting a connected mode discontinuous reception (CDRX) profile based on the QCI level, and transmitting the CDRX profile to the user device to be used when running the application. The QCI level may be indicative of delay sensitivity of the application and the CDRX profile may be selected based on the delay sensitivity of the application.

Abstract: An antenna system for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes an antenna and a self-leveling antenna mount configured to mount the antenna to the UAV. The antenna is configured to receive commands for the UAV via a network and to transmit data from the UAV via the network. The antenna has a transmit-receive pattern with a peak strength in a first direction aligned with an axis of the antenna. The transmit-receive pattern falls off in directions away from the axis of the antenna. The self-leveling antenna mount is configured to adjust an orientation of the antenna to maintain substantial alignment between the first direction and a straight downward direction relative to the UAV despite a change in roll, pitch, or bank of the UAV. In some embodiments, the axis of the antenna is a downward vertical axis of the antenna.

Abstract: An antenna system for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes an antenna having a transmit-receive radiation pattern with a peak strength in a first direction of the antenna, a first strength reducing to a first predetermined strength below the peak strength at a first angle away from the first direction, a second strength reducing to a second predetermined strength lower than the first predetermined strength at a second angle greater than the first angle away from the first direction, and a third strength reducing to a third predetermined strength lower than the second predetermined strength at angles greater than the second angle away from the from the first direction. The antenna system further includes a self-leveling antenna mount to maintain the first direction in substantial alignment with a straight downward direction relative to the UAV despite a change in roll, pitch, or bank of the UAV.

Abstract: Parametric measurement of first- and second-generation telecommunications equipment has been relatively straightforward. The evolution to more complex transmission schemes such as those proposed for third-generation (3G) telecommunications devices can employ the subject methods and apparatus and apply AM-PM test procedures to a multicarrier amplifier RF environment to properly characterize the parametric performance of these transmission systems, particularly those operating in a multicarrier environment.
