Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable mediums for wireless communication are disclosed by the present disclosure. In an example, a user equipment (UE) may be located on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The UE may monitor at least one of an elevation of the UE or a number of cells detected by the UE. The UE may determine that the elevation of the UE exceeds an elevation threshold or the number of cells detected by the UE exceeds a cell threshold. The UE may determine a current communication mode of the UE. The UE may switch to a directional transmit mode, in response to determining that the current communication mode is an omnidirectional transmit mode and at least one of the elevation of the UE exceeds the elevation threshold or the number of cells detected by the UE exceeds the cell threshold.

Abstract: Sharing of frequency generator settings in a network are disclosed. In a particular implementation, a method of wireless communication includes determining, by a user equipment (UE), a first frequency setting for a frequency generator of a UE. The first frequency setting is associated with a first frequency. The method includes modifying the first frequency setting to generate a second frequency setting for the frequency generator. The second frequency setting is associated with a second frequency that is different from the first frequency. The method also includes generating a message that indicates the second frequency setting. The method further includes transmitting the message from the UE to a base station.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) may receive Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) information from a V2X entity, such as a vehicle, road side unit, or other UE carried by a pedestrian. The V2X information may be transmitted to a location server by the UE to obtain positioning assistance data. The location server may determine a coarse position of the UE using the V2X information and generate corresponding positioning assistance data including Positioning Reference Signal (PRS) information for neighbor base stations, which is transmitted to the UE. The UE may detect PRS signals from the neighbor base stations and perform position determination using the PRS signals. The V2X entity or a different V2X entity may also transmit PRS signals that are received by the UE and used along with the PRS signal from the neighbor base stations to perform position determination.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A source user equipment (UE) may determine which subscriber identity module (SIM) card to use based on information of the target UE. For example, the target UE may have poor call quality using a first SIM, but high call quality when using a second SIM. The target UE may indicate the call quality for each SIM in subscription information to the source UE. The source UE may determine to use the second SIM of the target UE instead of the first SIM, resulting in higher call quality for the target UE. The subscription information may include a variety of information related to the target UE, such as subscriptions of the target UE, RAT availabilities for the target UE, etc. The target UE may also configure settings for receiving or rejecting data calls. The target UE may configure whether to receive data calls based on connectivity parameters.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to methods and apparatus relating to intelligent resource assignment to increase throughput in LTE multiple input multiple output (MIMO) and carrier aggregation (CA) capable devices. In certain aspects, a MIMO and CA capable wireless communication device communicates with a base station (BS) on multiple component carriers (CCs) through multiple radio frequency (RF) chains. In such aspects, the device tentatively switches one or more first RF chains, not assigned to a first CC of the multiple CCs, to the first CC for evaluating a rank of the first CC. The device then determines that the first CC has a higher rank indication (RI) with the one or more RF chains. The device subsequently evaluates one or more performance factors, in conjunction with the higher rank, based on which the device then additionally assigns one or more second RF chains to the first CC.
