    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a wireless personal-area network (PAN) underlying a cellular wide-area network (WAN). The PAN includes a wearable user equipment (UE-W) and a user equipment aggregation node (UE-AN). The UE-W includes processing circuitry to process data for communication with a network of the WAN through the UE-AN, and radio interface circuitry to communicate with the UE-AN through a first air interface. The UE-AN includes processing to process data for communication between the network of the WAN and the UE-W, and radio interface circuitry to communicate with the network of the WAN through the first air interface and with the UE-W through a second air interface. The UE-W and the UE-AN can share a network credential, appearing as a single device to the WAN.

    Abstract: Embodiments of wireless communication devices and methods for device discovery is generally described herein. Some of these embodiments describe an apparatus having processing circuitry arranged to configure a single-tone discovery signal for transmission in a symbol in a transmission opportunity based on an assignment pattern. The assignment pattern may define frequency positions, for a set of transmission opportunities, at which the apparatus shall transmit discovery signals in the corresponding transmission opportunity. The apparatus may have physical layer circuitry arranged to transmit the single-tone discovery signal in the corresponding transmission opportunity. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.
