    Abstract: Certain embodiments disclosed herein provide application-specific launch optimization. Aspects of the present disclosure include one or more cost functions for each application, where each cost function corresponds to a likelihood that a particular application should be placed into a particular pre-activation state. For each of the inactive applications, a respective one of the pre-activation states is selected based on comparing cost values obtained by evaluating the cost functions. Each of the inactive applications can be moved to or maintained in the respectively-selected pre-activation state to more efficiently provide an expedited application launch experience for a user.

    Abstract: A head-mounted device may have a head-mounted housing. The head-mounted housing may have rear-facing displays that display images for a user. The images are viewable from eye boxes while the head-mounted device is being worn by the user. The displays may be mounted in left and right optical modules that have respective left and right lenses. A positioning system may be used to adjust the spacing between the left and right optical modules to accommodate different interpupillary distances. An adjustable heat extraction system may be provided that includes fans configured to force air between airflow inlets and outlets past heat sinks. The heat sinks may have fins that are adjusted in orientation and/or that are otherwise adjusted based on changes in optical module spacing. The airflow inlets and/or outlets may have adjustable louvers or other movable members that allow these ports to be fully opened, fully closed, or partly closed.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for non-small data transmission (non-SDT) dedicated radio bearer (DRB) handling while in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state. A wireless device may determine, while operating in the RRC inactive state, that non-SDT data is available for transmission on a non-SDT DRB and determine, based on one or more conditions, to transmit, to a base station, non-SDT data arrival information during an SDT procedure. The one or more conditions may be associated with arrival time of the non-SDT data and/or an amount of non-SDT data to be transmitted. The arrival time may be relative to arrival of SDT data, initiation of an SDT procedure, and/or initiation of a subsequent transmission period of an SDT procedure.

    Abstract: This application sets forth techniques for cellular wireless network characterization and selection based on wireless device usage, including selection of a public land mobile network (PLMN) and/or a subscriber identity module (SIM) best matched to PLMN characterized performance scores and/or habitual device usage of a wireless device. Network performance scores for multiple PLMNs based on crowd-sourced information are downloaded to a wireless device. The wireless device determines a best match between characterized network performance scores to habitual device usage characterization of the wireless device. A best matched roaming PLMN can be determined for a single SIM wireless device. A best matched SIM paired with a best matched PLMN can be chosen as a primary SIM to optimize roaming performance of a multiple SIM wireless device. Additionally, a SIM, associated with a best matched PLMN, can be recommended for installation to a multiple SIM capable wireless device.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to perform measurements during two or more measurement gaps (MGs). The UE receives a MG configuration, wherein the MG configuration includes multiple MGs and MG conflict resolution information, determines whether a conflict exists between two or more of the MGs, selects at least one of the two or more MGs that have the conflict based on the MG conflict resolution information and performs signal measurements during the selected at least one of the two or more MGs that have the conflict.

    Abstract: A communications system may include user equipment (UE) that transmits data to a recipient via a network. The UE may receive user input and may generate the data based on the input. When a terrestrial network is unavailable to the UE, the UE may transmit segments of the data over a satellite constellation as the UE continues to receive input and while connectivity to the constellation exceeds a threshold. If a portion of the input includes an edit to a previous segment, the UE may include an edit flag in the corresponding segment. Once input has finished, the UE may sign the segments and may transmit a signature over the constellation. The network may store the segments as received from the constellation, may replace edited segments with more recent segments containing edit flags, and may compile and transmit all of the segments to the recipient upon receipt of the signature.

    Abstract: A method for decoding an image according to the present invention may comprise the steps of: deriving a residual coefficient of a current block; dequantizing the residual coefficient; deriving a common residual signal by performing inverse transform of the dequantized residual coefficient; and deriving a first residual signal of a first chroma component and a second residual signal of a second chroma component on the basis of the common residual signal.
