Abstract: A vital-sign detection system is provided. The vital-sign detection system includes a vital-sign detection device and a controller. The vital-sign detection device is enabled to detect a vital-sign of a user. The controller determines whether the gets in the bed and controls the vital-sign detection device to switch to a disabled mode from a first enabled mode in response to the user getting in the bed. During a period when the vital-sign detection device is in the disabled mode, the controller determines whether the user falls asleep. In response to the user falling asleep, the controller controls the vital-sign detection device to switch to a second enabled mode from the disabled mode.

Abstract: A wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) is configured in dual connectivity with a master cell group and a secondary cell group. Uplink (UL) data is sent in an active one of the master cell group and the secondary cell group as an active UL transmission cell group. It is determined whether a UL transmission is to be switched to an alternate one of the master cell group and the secondary cell group and the UL traffic is switched from the active UL transmission cell group to the alternate cell group in response to the determination that the UL transmission is to be switched.

Abstract: Blockage detection in a wireless transmit receive unit includes performing a radio link measurement on one or more reference signals. The radio link measurement is compared to a comparing threshold and a blockage condition is indicated in response to the comparing of the radio link measurement meeting a threshold criterion on the comparing threshold.
