  • Publication number: 20230302906
    Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for use in a vehicle. Driving information of the vehicle is obtained. The driving information includes transmission state information of the vehicle and information for an autonomous driving function. When the transmission state information indicates a position other than drive, a size of an exposed region of a first display is controlled to be a first size. When the transmission state information indicates drive and the driving information indicates that the autonomous driving function is enabled, the exposed region of the first display is controlled to be a second size that is less than the first size. When the transmission state information indicates drive and the driving information indicates that the autonomous driving function is disabled, the exposed region of the first display is controlled to be less than the second size.

  • Patent number: 11765772
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for a UE and its serving base station in 5G NR systems to signal channel scan or channel sensing to allow channel occupancy time (COT) sharing before transmissions. The COT sharing may be initiated by the base station or by the UE by asserting a CCA indication to enable channel sensing by a UE or base station, respectively. When the UE receives and decodes the asserted CCA indication during downlink transmission, the UE may perform channel sensing during a short interframe space (SIFS) between the downlink transmission and a scheduled uplink transmission. When the UE detects that the sensed RF energy across an intended transmission band is greater than an energy detect threshold, the UE may refrain from transmitting during the scheduled uplink transmission. Otherwise, or when the CCA indication is de-asserted, the UE may transmit during the scheduled uplink transmission without performing channel sensing.

  • Publication number: 20230284071
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide apparatus, methods, processing systems, and computer readable mediums for enhancing reliability of voice over new radio (VONR) in dual connectivity (DC) by duplicating quality of service (QoS) flow using motion metrics measured at the user equipment (UE). At a high level, the UE may detect a motion metric, such as rotation or displacement, and determine whether the detected motion metric exceeds a threshold. When the motion metric exceeds the threshold, the UE requests the network to duplicate the QoS flow in response to the determination.

  • Patent number: 11743914
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a first system information message including an indication of a resource configuration for a control resource set (CORESET) from a base station. The CORESET may include a common search space for a downlink control information (DCI) message that schedules a second system information message. The UE may identify a set of parameters from multiple sets of parameters for the CORESET based on the indication received in the first system information message and the UE being a first type of UE. The set of parameters may be different from a second set of parameters for the CORESET associated with a second type of UE different from the first type of UE. The UE may receive, in the CORESET according to the identified set of parameters, the DCI message scheduling the second system information message.
