    Abstract: In an example method, a first device determines first network resources that have been activated for exchanging data with one or more second devices via a wireless network, and determines, for each of the first network resources, a time duration of a respective burst transmission performed using that first network resource. The first device determines whether to (i) activate second network resources for exchanging data with the second devices and/or (ii) deactivate one or more of the first network resources for exchanging data with the second devices. In response, the first device activates the second network resources and/or deactivates the one or more of the first network resources.

    Abstract: This application describes systems and processes for beam selection performance refinement in static conditions of wireless devices (e.g., user equipment UE). A data processing system of the UE is configured to perform a beam scan for testing multiple high gain candidate beams on a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) and link adaptation (LA) channel state information reference signal (LA-CSI-RS) while the UE is not moving and the data processing system of the UE determines that the channel is stable. The data processing system is configured to refine a given beam choice based on a determined capacity of the beams (e.g., from PDSCH signaling and/or LA-CSI-RS signals) to optimize data throughput.

    Abstract: This application describes systems and processes for sensor-assisted antenna and beam selection for wireless networks. The systems and processes are configured to detect out of coverage (OoC) scenarios and perform beam management in response to detecting the OoC scenario. The systems and methods are configured to perform beam management during baseband interruption scenarios. In each scenario, the device (e.g., user equipment UE) is configured to determine whether the UE is static or mobile.

    Abstract: A wireless device can perform non-line-of-sight detection. The wireless device may establish a wireless link with another wireless device using a wireless channel. The wireless device may perform one or more channel measurements for the wireless channel. The wireless device may determine whether a line-of-sight path is available for the wireless channel based at least in part on the one or more channel measurements. The wireless device may determine whether to trigger beamforming selection, antenna selection, and/or any other link maintenance operations based at least in part on the determined line-of-sight availability.
