Abstract: An electronic device may communicate with a wireless base station using a 5G New Radio communications protocol. The base station may balance control timing and receiver performance for the devices in its cell by scheduling communications based on the communications capabilities of each device. This may ensure that the base station is able to provide communications with satisfactory control timing and receiver performance even if multiple different types of device are within its cell. In addition, the device may perform open loop transmit power control operations and then closed loop power control operations. To minimize complexity of the device, the device may only transmit at a maximum output power level during the open loop operations. If desired, the device may only transmit at the maximum output power level when the device is unable to decode a downlink reference signal transmitted by the base station within a predetermined number of symbols.

Abstract: An electronic device discussed herein may include radio frequency communication circuitry for communication on a radio frequency network according to a communication configuration, a processor, and memory. The memory may store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to perform operations including receiving, a first muting configuration indicating when the radio frequency communication circuitry is to communicate using a first type of communication on a first frequency band and when the radio frequency communication circuitry is to communicate using a second type of communication on a second frequency band, where the first frequency band may overlap with the second frequency band. The memory may store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the electronic device to perform operations including transmitting or receiving a data packet using the radio frequency communication circuitry according to the communication configuration.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein relate to techniques for measuring and/or detecting a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) of a received signal at a user equipment (UE). The received signal may include a desired signal, co-channel interference, adjacent channel interference, and an in-band blocker. The UE may filter (e.g., remove) the various interferences and in-band blocker. The UE may determine or measure a power (or Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)) of the desired signal and a power (or RSSI) of the co-channel interference separately because the desired signal and the co-channel interference overlap in frequency. To do so, the UE may determine a total power of the received signal including the desired signal and co-channel interference. The UE may receive the desired signal again while an uplink transmission is deactivated (and thus without the interference). The UE may then calculate the SIR based on the total power and the power of the desired signal.

Abstract: User equipment that is capable of filtering for an irregular bandwidth of an allocated channel may send an indication of this capability to a network, which may then configure the channel to a next higher standard channel size, enabling the user equipment to filter this larger channel bandwidth to the irregular bandwidth. User equipment that is not capable of filtering for the irregular bandwidth may send an indication that it does not have this capability to the network, which may then configure the channel to a next lower standard channel size, thus avoiding the need for the user equipment to filter a larger channel bandwidth to the irregular bandwidth. In cases where the network detects that a blocking signal is not present that may interfere with the allocated channel, the network may configure the channel to the next higher standard channel size.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for indicating to a spectrum access system communication preferences of a base station and/or of a network operator. Different methods may be used to indicate the communication preferences, including a dedicated type parameter transmitted with spectrum allocation requests from the base station, a rule-based system where the spectrum access system accesses communication preferences of the base station and/or network operator through an identifier corresponding to a rule definition, or the like. The spectrum access system may assign a channel to the network operator based on its communication preferences, such as to determine a channel assignment to correspond to a channel aligned with a raster of communications to be used by the network operator. If the channel is not aligned, then the base station may shift a center frequency of the channel so that the channel aligns with the raster of communications.

Abstract: User equipment may configure a transmitter or receiver to conform to regulations or standards of a geographical region to communicate with non-terrestrial networks (e.g., satellite networks). In one embodiment, the user equipment may receive an indication of a regulation or standard to which to conform to from a terrestrial communication node, and apply an emission mask to the transmitter based on the regulation or standard. The user equipment may additionally or alternatively configure the receiver to be compliant with a noise level tolerance of a received signal specified by the regulation or standard. In some embodiments, the user equipment may implement a frequency offset between the received signal and an interfering signal associated with the noise level tolerance that is scaled based at least on a channel bandwidth associated with the desired signal. Moreover, the user equipment may scale the noise level tolerance based on the frequency offset.

Abstract: This disclosure provides various techniques for enabling user equipment to communicate with a non-terrestrial communication hub or network of non-terrestrial communication hubs via a non-terrestrial network (NTN). By conforming NTN communications to standards and regulations for terrestrial cellular communications, network capabilities of the user equipment may be enhanced. This may be accomplished by defining frequency band identifiers (IDs) for NTN frequency bands and various uplink and downlink frequencies within the NTN frequency bands.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for operating transceiver circuitry to communicate signals on various frequency ranges based on primary cell and/or secondary cell assignments. A controller associated with the transceiver circuitry may operate a receiver to receive a handover initiation packet using a first frequency range as a primary cell from a base station. The controller may adjust the receiver and a transmitter to use a second frequency range as the primary cell, to adjust the receiver and the transmitter to detach from the first frequency range as the primary cell, and to reset information corresponding to the first frequency range to enable attachment of the first frequency range to a secondary cell.
