    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide proactive beam failure recovery initiation. The proactive initiation may occur at the transmit receive point or at the user equipment. Beam failure, which leads to the beam failure recovery initiation may be proactively detected using sensing or artificial intelligence. A part of any beam failure recovery process is new beam identification. Such new beam identification may be carried out in a traditional manner, using reference signal beam measurement and training. Alternatively, new beam identification may be carried out in a proactive manner, using sensing or artificial intelligence. When indicating a direction for the new beam, a coordinate system may be used. The indicating may reference an absolute beam direction or a differential beam direction by using the coordinate system.

    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide beam indication solutions. A first solution relates to absolute beam indication and a second solution relates to differential beam indication. Through, for example, information determined using sensing, these beam indication solutions allow for information transfer between transmit receipt point and user equipment to occur on a relatively narrow beam. By reducing scanning, a solution based on beam indication aspects of the present application reduce overhead and, consequently, reduce latency. Another benefit of a narrow beam is improved spectral efficiency. The sensing may allow for a relationship between a beam and an external environment to be established. The relationship allows for a beam to be indicated in a direct and agile manner.

    Abstract: Signaling resource overhead associated with current communication link adaptation mechanisms can be quite large and such mechanisms typically rely upon a channel state information (CSI) feedback process that can result in poor scheduling performance. Embodiments are disclosed in which a first device channel state information characterizing a wireless communication channel between the first device and a second device, and trains a machine learning (ML) module of the first device using the CSI as an ML module input and one or more modulation and coding scheme (MCS) parameters as an ML module output to satisfy a training target. By applying the concepts disclosed herein, overhead associated with feedback for MCS selection may be reduced compared to conventional link adaptation procedures, because, once ML modules at a pair of devices have been trained, the MCS selection by the ML modules can be done without requiring the ongoing feedback of CSI.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus on wireless network architecture and air interface are disclosed. In some embodiments, sensing agents communicate with user equipments (UEs) or nodes using one of multiple sensing modes through non-sensing-based or sensing-based links, and/or artificial intelligence (AI) agents communicate with UEs or nodes using one of multiple AI modes through non-AI-based or AI-based links. AI and sensing may work independently or together. For example, a sensing service request may be sent by an AI block to a sensing block to obtain sensing data from the sensing block, and the AI block may generate a configuration based on the sensing data. Various other features, related to example interfaces, channels, and other aspects of AI-enabled and/or sensing-enabled communications, for example, are also disclosed.

    Abstract: A first sensing coordinator in a radio access network may communicate a first signal with a second sensing coordinator through an interface link. The first sensing coordinator may include a sensing protocol layer, and may communicate the first signal through the interface link using the sensing protocol. Similarly, a second sensing coordinator may communicate a first signal with a first sensing coordinator in a radio access network through an interface link, with the second sensing coordinator including a sensing protocol layer and communicating the first signal through the interface link using the sensing protocol. A sensing device or apparatus may access an interface link through a radio access network and communicate a first signal, including a sensing configuration or sensing data, with a sensing coordinator that has a sensing protocol layer. The communicating may involve communicating the first signal through the interface link using a sensing protocol.

    Abstract: Restrictions associated with the use of multiple carriers in long-term evolution (LTE) and/or new radio (NR) may impede implementing a flexible personalized spectrum for different user equipments (UEs). Apparatuses, devices, and methods are instead provided in which there is more flexible spectrum utilization, e.g. in which there may be fewer restrictions and more options for configuring carriers and/or bandwidth parts (BWPs) on a UE-specific basis. As one example, in some embodiments, there is not necessarily coupling between carriers, e.g. between uplink and downlink carriers. For example, an uplink carrier and a downlink carrier may be independently indicated so as to allow the uplink carrier and downlink carrier to be independently added, released, modified, activated, deactivated, and/or scheduled.
