Abstract:
Apparatuses, systems and methods for mitigation and detection of drone-based interference are disclosed. An apparatus for a base station can include processing circuitry to encode a message to control a user equipment (UE) to measure received power received from a set of observed cells in a wireless communication network. Processing circuitry can further be configured to receive a report from the UE that includes received power for the set of observed cells. The processing circuitry can further determine interference power from the UE to a specified cell of the set of observed cells based on the report and further based on reported antenna gain. The processing circuitry can further determine whether to support communication of the UE within the wireless communication network based on the determined interference power from the UE. Other systems, methods and apparatuses are described.
Abstract:
Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or cellular network communications corresponding to a non-cellular network. For example, an Evolved Node B (eNB) may be configured to transmit to a User Equipment (UE) at least one configuration message to configure one or more measurements to be performed by the UE with respect to at least Wireless-Local-Area-Network (WLAN), to receive from the UE at least one report message including measurement information corresponding to the WLAN, to trigger the UE to start or stop offloading to the WLAN, and/or to transmit to the UE network assistance information corresponding to the WLAN.
Abstract:
Methods and devices are described for enabling different transmission modes that include full-duplex modes in a wireless network are described. A medium access control layer design is described that enables evaluation of interferences that would result from a transmission mode in order to facilitate decision making by the network access point and the wireless stations associated therewith in selecting a particular transmission mode. Signaling techniques for setting up the different transmission techniques are also described.
Abstract:
Methods adapted for measuring interference in joint communications and Access Points (APs) are described. The interference can be between the AP and first and second communication stations (STAs). In a method to measure interference, a first communication between the AP and the first STA can be established. Further, a second communication between the AP and the second STA can be established. The second communication can include transmitting a null data packet (NDP) to the second STA based on the first communication to measure STA-to-STA inference between the first STA and the second STA.
Abstract:
A network device (e.g., an evolved Node B (eNB), user equipment (UE) or the like) can split a 3GPP bearer in a multi-radio heterogeneous network of a radio access network (RAN) between a plurality of communication links. The plurality of communication links can comprise a 3GPP link and one or more other multi-radio links of the multi-radio heterogeneous network. The bearer can be split dynamically or statically based on a plurality of heterogeneous network metrics. The network device can further determine the proportions, or ratios of traffic data to be transmitted between the plurality of communication links based on the proportions of the 3GPP bearer split and heterogeneous metrics.
Abstract:
An integrated WLAN/WWAN Radio Access Technology (RAT) architecture is described in which signaling used to control the integration of the WLAN/WWAN architecture is performed over the Radio Resource Control (RRC) plane. The integrated architecture may provide a network-controlled framework for performing traffic steering and radio resource management.
Abstract:
An integrated WLAN/WWAN Radio Access Technology (RAT) architecture is described in which signaling used to control the integration of the WLAN/WWAN architecture is performed over the Radio Resource Control (RRC) plane. The integrated architecture may allow for User Equipment (UE) assistance in cell selection and traffic steering. In particular, UE-assisted RRC signaling is described for managing inter-RAT session transfers and secondary cell (SCell) selection.
Abstract:
To configure a UE for handover between a source evolved Node-B (eNB) and a target eNB using aerial communications in a cellular network, the UE processing circuitry is to decode measurement configuration information from the source eNB. The measurement configuration information includes a plurality of height thresholds associated with aerial height of the UE. A measurement report is encoded for transmission to the source eNB. The measurement report includes the aerial height of the UE and the measurement report generation triggered based on one or more triggering events associated with the plurality of height thresholds. RRC signaling from the source eNB is decoded, the RRC signaling including a handover command. The handover command is based on a handover decision by the source eNB using the measurement report. A handover from the source eNB to the target eNB is performed based on the handover command.

Abstract:
A full-duplex (FD) capable access point (AP) of a wireless basic service set (BSS) that includes a plurality of stations (STAs) is configured to implement opportunistic FD downlink (DL) transmissions to a non-FD capable STA in the BSS when decoding uplink (UL) data from a UL STA in the BSS. While decoding the UL data, the AP selects a DL STA from a queue of DL STAs based on a predetermined FD DL transmission rate from the AP to the DL STA while the AP is decoding the UL data from the UL STA. The AP then causes an amount of data to be transmitted as an FD transmission to the selected DL STA while the processor is decoding the data from the UL STA.
