Abstract: This application describes methods and apparatus to allocate uplink (UL) power dynamically across multiple parallel radio frequency links for wireless devices. The wireless device sets an initial maximum transmit power level (MTPL) for each UL radio link of multiple radio links used for UL traffic based on a duty cycle prediction for the respective UL radio link. The wireless device adjusts the initial MTPL for each UL radio link based on a predicted data throughput for the UL radio link relative to a total predicted data throughput for all UL radio links. The adjusted MTPL for each UL radio link can be also reduced when the UL radio link uses UL multiple input multiple output (MIMO) transmission via multiple antenna ports, e.g., by apportioning the adjusted MTPL among the multiple antenna ports of the UL radio link equally.

Abstract: An electronic device may include wireless circuitry with a phased antenna array that conveys radio-frequency signals using signal beams of first and second orthogonal polarizations. The array may sweep over a set of signal beam pairs, each including a respective combination of signal beams of the first and second polarizations. The wireless circuitry may gather performance metric values for each of the polarizations and signal beam pairs. The circuitry may generate a filtered set of signal beam pairs by removing signal beam pairs having performance metric values that differ from a maximum of the wireless performance metric values by more than a threshold. The circuitry may select a signal beam pair from the filtered set having a minimum polarization imbalance. The array may concurrently convey first and second wireless data streams using the selected signal beam pair. Minimizing polarization imbalance may maximize overall data throughput for the device.

Abstract: Systems and methods performed by user equipment (UE) for communicating over a wireless communication network include receiving data representing one or more communication quality metrics for communication on a New Radio (NR) communication link of the wireless communication network. The method includes determining, based on the data representing the one or more communication quality metrics, a data throughput for the NR communication link of the wireless communication network. The method includes estimating a theoretical throughput for using a Long Term Evolution (LTE) communications link of the wireless network. The method includes comparing the data throughput using the NR communication link to the theoretical throughput for using the LTE communication link. The method includes causing a switch, based on the comparison, from the NR communication link to the LTE communication link.

Abstract: A wireless device is configured to select a beam and/or an antenna based on detection a detected position and/or orientation of the device relative to a remote device. The device obtains motion data indicating a change in position or orientation of the wireless device. The device determines its pose relative to the remote device. The device accesses a coverage map that associates, for each potential pose for the device with respect to the remote device: an antenna for communicating with the remote device and/or a beam for communicating with the remote device. The device selects a particular antenna and/or a particular beam for communicating with the remote device; and causes transmission or reception of data to or from the remote device by the particular antenna and/or the particular beam.

Abstract: A wireless communication device receives an average transmission power limit for a time period, and determines a first MTPL for a first time of the time period by setting the first MTPL to the average transmission power limit. The wireless communication device then transmits a signal at the first time using a first transmission power not to exceed the first MTPL. If the first transmission power is less than the first MTPL, then the wireless communication device determines residual transmission power based on a difference between the first MTPL and the first transmission power. The wireless communication device determines a second MTPL for a second time of the time period by adding the residual transmission power to the first MTPL. The wireless communication device then transmits a signal at the second transmission power not to exceed the second MTPL.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) passively determines the presence of a cellular network bottleneck in a downlink channel and may take appropriate actions to mitigate the bottleneck. The UE may analyze the transport block size (TBS) of slots of received downlink traffic and assign states the to various slots based on this analysis. Based on these assigned states, the UE may identify a burst of network traffic from network traffic received from the cellular network, and the UE may also determine the burst duration as well as a busy estimation. The UE may determine that the cellular network is experiencing a bottleneck based at least in part on the burst duration and the busy estimation.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to managing access to 5G cellular baseband resources for 5G-capable wireless devices. A wireless device can monitor application workloads by analyzing communication network performance requirements for a given application in-use or launching for future use along with system-level indications of overall device usage, battery level, and mobility status to determine whether access to 5G cellular baseband resources is recommended for an application. A 5G cellular baseband resource recommendation is provided for an application indicating a level of bandwidth in current use or expected for future use as well as a confidence metric in the bandwidth level indication. The 5G cellular baseband resource recommendation is used with additional device criteria to determine whether access to one or more 5G radio frequency bands is allowed.
