Abstract: This Application describes mechanisms for enterprise remote management of cellular services provided via access credentials, e.g., subscriber identity modules (SIMs) and/or electronic SIMs (eSIMs), for wireless devices. To minimize requirements for user interaction, installation and management of business-supplied cellular service profiles on the wireless device can intercept alert notifications to reduce interruptions and allow for background management of the business-supplied cellular service profiles. Additionally, a business enterprise can use multiple, distinct services to initiate installation of an eSIM to a wireless device. When two different services attempt to install eSIMs on the wireless device in parallel, management software on the wireless device can control an order of installation and disallow duplicate installations of an identical eSIM to the wireless device. The management software can also monitor eSIM installations and manage alert notifications that occur during the eSIM installation process.

Abstract: A base station (BS) may receive a plurality of repetitions of a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) from a user equipment (UE), and accumulate the received repetitions to obtain a resultant signal. The ability to accumulate repetitions enables the base station to experience a higher probability of successful recovery of the PUCCH payload bits than if decoding were based on the reception of a non-repeated transmission of the PUCCH. The base station may configure the number of repetitions, the temporal gap between the repetitions, and mode of repetition of the PUCCH. In an intra-slot mode, more than one copy may be received from each configured slot, with or without frequency hopping. In an inter-slot mode, one copy is received per configured slot. Different repetitions may be transmitted by the UE in different directions, according to a spatial consistency pattern.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for Reflective Quality of Service (RQoS) enhancements. Methods may include enhancements for both UE behavior and network function behavior. Network function behaviors may include enhancements to UPF behavior and SPF behavior. Enhancements to RQoS may include methods for resetting an RQoS indicator (RQI) bit for downlink packets of a flow destined for a UE, methods for generating a flow ID to include in a SDAP header destined for a UE, methods for using the flow ID to limit L3 and L4 header parsing, methods for sending/receiving feedback regarding processing of the RQI bit, methods for maintaining a QFI mapping table, methods for skipping parsing of SDAP header fields, methods for specifying and signaling a QoS Flow Identifier (QFI) range to a UE, methods for limiting downlink header parsing, methods for updating a QFI, and methods for performing high efficiency RQoS processing.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to perform measurements during two or more measurement gaps (MGs). The UE receives a MG configuration, wherein the MG configuration includes multiple MGs and MG conflict resolution information, determines whether a conflict exists between two or more of the MGs, selects at least one of the two or more MGs that have the conflict based on the MG conflict resolution information and performs signal measurements during the selected at least one of the two or more MGs that have the conflict.

Abstract: Some embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product for radio resource management (RRM) scaling factor enhancement without measurement gaps (MGs) in an E-UTRA-New Radio (NR) Dual Connectivity (EN-DC) network. Some embodiments include a user equipment (UE) that receives from a Primary Node (PN), a first NR measurement object (MO) without MG associated with a frequency. The UE receives from a Secondary Node (SN), a second NR MO without MG associated with the same frequency. The UE allocates resources based on a Primary Secondary Component Carrier (PSCC) and determines a scaling factor for determining a total procedure period for obtaining measurements to satisfy the first and the second NR MO without MG. Some embodiments include combining counts of NR MO without MG at a same frequency. Some embodiments include coordination between the PN and the SN so that MOs without MG at a common frequency satisfy the merging rule.

Abstract: A spatial light system that may, for example, be used to project image content onto surfaces of a room. The system may include two or more projection units for emitting light onto surfaces within a room. The system may include a controller and two or more projection units, each module including an LED array, an array of light pipes, and a condenser lens. Two or more projection units may be connected to a flexible strip that provides power and data (e.g., serial data) to the projection units, a composable light emitter unit, or a bulb-form projection system. Two or more flex strips or composable light emitter units may be connected together to provide a serially-connected, flexible modular architecture for spatial light systems that allow the projection units to be conformed to a variety of configurations and shapes.

Abstract: The current disclosure is related to digital-to-analog converters (DACs) with localized frequency multiplication circuits. For example, an electronic device may include a local oscillator (LO) providing clock signals, a digital front-end providing digital signals, a DAC, (e.g., a radio frequency DAC (RFDAC)), and one or more antennas. The DAC may include a number of cells (e.g., unit power amplifiers). Moreover, each cell may provide a unit power analog signal upon activation with a higher frequency than the received digital signals and clock signals. The DAC may provide an output signal (e.g., an analog signal) based on combining (e.g., aggregating) the unit power analog signals of the activated cells for transmission by the one or more antennas.

Abstract: The intelligent automated assistant system engages with the user in an integrated, conversational manner using natural language dialog, and invokes external services when appropriate to obtain information or perform various actions. The system can be implemented using any of a number of different platforms, such as the web, email, smartphone, and the like, or any combination thereof. In one embodiment, the system is based on sets of interrelated domains and tasks, and employs additional functionally powered by external services with which the system can interact.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for controlling a device's operation based on an inferred state. More specifically, at each of a set of time points, execution of an application at an electronic device is detected. For each detected execution, an application-usage variable is determined. One or more aggregated metrics are generated based on aggregation of at least some of the application-usage variables. Based on the one or more aggregated metrics, a state identifier is identified that corresponds to an inferred state of a user of the electronic device. A device-operation identifier is retrieved that is associated with the state identifier. A device operation is performed associated with the device-operation identifier.
