Abstract:
Communication is implemented between at least one access node of a wireless network and a terminal attached to the wireless network. The communication is on at least one narrowband carrier (311-1, 311-2) comprising resources (308) in a first spectrum (301) and operating according to a first radio access technology, e.g., Narrowband Internet of Things, NB-IoT. The first spectrum (301) is arranged at least partly within a second spectrum (302) on which communication between the at least one access node and a second terminal is executed on a wideband carrier (312). The wideband carrier (312) comprises resources (308) in the second spectrum (302) and operates according to a second radio access technology different to the first radio access technology, e.g., Machine-Type Communication, MTC, or evolved UMTS radio access, E-UTRA. In some examples, the first spectrum (301) and the second spectrum (302) both may comprise a shared spectrum.
Abstract:
A beamforming parameter is determined. A number of transmission repetitions are determined according to the determined beamforming parameter. Message are communicated between an access node and at least one terminal on a radio link using a beamformed transmission which is based on the determined beamforming parameter. The messages comprise repetitions of data. A count of the messages having the repetitions of data corresponds to the determined number of transmission repetitions.
Abstract:
Methods of operating an electronic device are provided. A method of operating a first electronic device includes listening for a wireless transmission by a second electronic device on a wireless communications channel. The method includes determining whether a packet is a particular type of packet. The method includes assigning a randomized time delay value that defines a randomized delay period, in response to determining that the packet is the particular type of packet. The method includes beginning the randomized delay period in response to determining that the wireless communications channel is clear. Moreover, the method includes transmitting the packet via the wireless communications channel based on expiration of the randomized delay period. Related electronic devices and computer program products are also provided.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal is operated by receiving a first signal and a second signal, determining a signal strength of the first signal, and determining an indoor location of the mobile terminal based on the signal strength of the first signal and the second signal. The first signal is a radio frequency signal and the second signal is an audio frequency signal.
Abstract:
At least one control message is received, from a cellular network. The at least one control message indicates a measurement band (300). A measurement of a signal quality of a signal received on the measurement band (300) is executed. The measurement band (300) differs from the bands (200) of at least one cell (101, 102, 103) of the cellular network.

Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to receive a request to begin an adaptive streaming session; receive, in response to receiving the request, context information, wherein the context information pertains to a link state between the device and another device that provides a streaming media; calculate, based on the context information, values for dynamic parameters pertaining to the adaptive streaming session, wherein the dynamic parameters pertain to buffer management and codec selection; and provide, based on the values for the dynamic parameters, the streaming media to a user.
