Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with wireless circuitry and control circuitry. The wireless circuitry may communicate with a wireless base station using a 5G New Radio (NR) communications protocol. The wireless circuitry may include a phased antenna array. The electronic device may perform antenna scaling operations in which the active antennas in the phased antenna array change over time to optimize wireless performance and power consumption. The electronic device may inform the base station when antenna scaling operations have occurred. This may allow the base station to compensate for power density discontinuities associated with the antenna scaling operations. If desired, the base station may break transmit and receive signal beam correspondence and the electronic device may use different antenna scaling settings for transmitting and receiving signals.

Abstract: User equipment may transmit and receive wireless signals to and from various communication networks. Furthermore, user equipment may indicate usage capabilities to the various wireless communication networks to enable the user equipment to transmit and/or receive wireless signals to and from at least two different communication networks. In particular, the user equipment may indicate usage capabilities of supporting both Frequency Range 2 (FR2) wireless signals of a fifth generation (5G) network and 7-24 gigahertz (GHz) wireless signals of a sixth generation (6G) network in an intermediate frequency range of the user equipment. The communication network(s) may then configure and/or schedule the user equipment based on the usage capabilities to enable the user equipment to simultaneously or non-simultaneously communicate using both the FR2 wireless signals and the 7-24 GHz wireless signals while preventing interference in the intermediate frequency range of the user equipment.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) device may communicate with a wireless base station (BS). Each antenna in a phased antenna array on the UE may receive a reference signal transmitted by the BS during the beam training interval. Transceiver circuitry may measure wireless performance metric data from the reference signal. While receiving the reference signal, control circuitry may selectively activate different individual antennas, may selectively activate different subsets of antennas, or may concurrently activate all of the antennas in the array. The control circuitry may identify, based on the wireless performance metric data, a first set of the antennas in the array to that are being blocked by an external object and a second set of antennas array that are not blocked. After the beam training interval, the transceiver may use the second set of antennas to convey wireless data with the BS while the first set of antennas are disabled.
