Abstract: A method of downlink channel state information (DL CSI) computation and reporting is proposed to support high velocity in new radio (NR) systems. In a first novel aspect, two CSI reference slots are defined. CSI reference slot for CSI measurement is defined for determining which CSI-RS/SSB occasion(s) is used for computing CSI. CSI reference slot for CSI computation is defined for determining the slot where UE assumes the CSI computation should be based upon the channel at that time onwards. In a second novel aspect, UE can be configured with a CSI computation period consisting of one or N slots and can be divided into multiple sub-periods without overlap. UE can be configured to compute and report wideband CSI and subband CSI for the whole CSI computation period and/or for each sub-period.

Abstract: A lattice-based proxy signature method, apparatus and device, a lattice-based proxy signature verification method, apparatus and device, and a storage medium. Polynomials are randomly selected in rings to calculate public and private keys of nodes, and the magnitudes of proxy public and private keys are the same as the magnitudes of public and private keys of an original signer. Therefore, compared with existing proxy signature schemes, the present application has smaller lengths of public and private keys and higher storage efficiency. Proxy signature information generated in the present application shows a signature of the original signer and also shows a signature of a proxy signer. Once a proxy signature is created, the proxy signature cannot be repudiated by the proxy signer, and has strong non-repudiation and strong unforgeability. The proxy signature method has the advantage of resisting quantum computer attack.

Abstract: In some implementations, a user device can predictively route media content to a remote playback device based on playback context information obtained by the user device. The playback context can include local playback context information related to the state and/or context of the user device. The playback context can include remote playback context information related to the state and/or context of available remote playback devices. Based on the playback context information obtained by the user device, the user device can generate a predictive score for each available playback device that indicates or predicts the likelihood that the user will want to send media content to the corresponding playback device. The user device can generate and present a graphical user interface that can identify the playback devices having predictive scores over a threshold score. In some instances, the user device can automatically route selected media content to a predicted playback device.
