    Abstract: Provided are a gesture interaction method and a gesture interaction system based on artificial reality. The method includes: determining a ray formed from a predetermined position of a hand to a finger joint when four fingers form a fist as an operation indication line, an end point of the ray being on the hand; determining a point of intersection between the operation indication line and a display surface in the artificial reality as a position of an operation icon in the artificial reality; controlling the operation icon to move correspondingly in response to detecting that the four fingers form the fist and move, to move the operation icon in the display surface to a target key; and determining, in response to detecting an action of a thumb of the hand touching an index finger, that the operation icon clicks on the target key to complete an interaction.

  • Patent number: 11968698
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described in which control resources may be identified, and a data transmission may be rate-matched around the one or more control channels of multiple UEs or at multiple aggregation levels in the control resources. A user equipment (UE) may identify a search space for a first control channel, and the rate-matching of the data transmission may be performed based on a location of the search space in the control resources. In some cases, a base station may provide a mapping of resources (e.g., a bitmap) within the control resources that are occupied, which may be used for rate-matching.

  • Patent number: 11963190
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some systems, a base station may configure a user equipment (UE) with a control resource set (CORESET) with multiple transmission configuration indicator (TCI) states. The UE may determine TCI state configurations for one or more search space sets associated with the CORESET, where different search space sets associated with the CORESET may have different TCI state configurations. For example, each search space set may be associated with a first TCI state of the CORESET, a second TCI state of the CORESET, or both. The UE may monitor for downlink control information (DCI) messages in physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates of the search space sets according to respective TCI state configurations for the search space sets. Such a configuration may flexibly support a base station transmitting DCI using different TCI state configurations in PDCCH candidates of a single CORESET.
