    Abstract: A first base station communicates with a UE via the first base station and a second base station. The first base station transmits, via a radio interface to the second base station, a configuration for concurrent communication between the UE and a group of base stations including the first base station and the second base station. The first base station communicates, by processing hardware, data over the radio interface directly with the UE, and via the radio interface and the second base stab on.

    Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described for machine-learning architectures for broadcast and multicast communications. A network entity processes broadcast or multicast communications using a deep neural network (DNN) to direct the one or more broadcast or multicast communications to a targeted group of user equipments (UEs) using the wireless communication system. The network entity receives feedback from at least one user equipment (UE) of the targeted group of UEs. The network entity determines a modification to the DNN based on the feedback. The network entity transmits an indication of the modification to the targeted group of UEs. The network entity updates the DNN with the modification to form a modified DNN. The network entity processes the broadcast or multicast communications using the modified DNN to direct the broadcast or multicast communications to the targeted group of UEs using the wireless communication system.

    Abstract: The systems, methods, and techniques described in this disclosure allow different wireless systems that operate in accordance with different Radio Access Technologies (RATs) to coexist within a same frequency domain with minimal (if any) inter-RAT interference. Specifically, the described techniques allocate a respective, mutually-exclusive portion of a plurality of Space-Time-Frequency (STF) resources for use in communicating in accordance with each different RAT. For example, mutually-exclusive portions of spatial domain resources, time domain resources, and/or frequency domain resources may be respectively allocated for exclusive use by different RATs. A centralized, third-party controller (120) may perform the allocations, or the allocations may be cooperatively arrived at between systems supporting different RATs, e.g., in a peer-to-peer manner. STF resource allocations may be static and/or dynamic over time, and STF resources may be uniquely identified by respective resource identifiers.

    Abstract: In aspects of downlink-only fifth generation new radio, a mobile communication device includes a radio frequency transceiver, a radio frequency receiver, and a processor and memory system to implement a radio control manager application that establishes an LTE anchor link with a base station using the LTE transceiver, establishes a 5G NR downlink from the base station to the mobile communication device using the radio frequency receiver, and manages the 5G NR downlink via an uplink of the LTE anchor link. In another aspect, a mobile communication device estimates channel conditions for a 5G NR downlink, selects a precoding matrix to beamform the 5G NR downlink, and provides an indication of the selected precoding matrix via the LTE anchor link.

    Abstract: A technique for utilizing network resources includes allocating a first set of network resources associated with a first network provider that operates a first core network and utilizes a first radio carrier (802) and a second set of network resources associated with a second network provider that operates a second core network and utilizes a second radio carrier (808). The technique also includes combining the first set of network resources and the second set of network resources to generate a combined set of network resources (810), and using the combined set of network resources to transmit data between a user device and the first core network and between the user device and the second core network, concurrently in a same communication session (812).

    Abstract: A method in a base station configured to communicate with a user device using a first RAT and/or a first radio resource includes receiving (422 or 521) a first random access message from the user device via first RACH resources, determining (426 or 526) that the first random access message is requesting RAT and/or radio resource availability, and transmitting (430 or 529) to the user device a second random access message indicating whether a second RAT and/or a second radio resource is available to the user device.

    Abstract: In a radio access network (RAN), a method for increasing network efficiency includes partitioning (702) a pool of identifiers into at least a plurality of identifier sets associated with a plurality of respective sets of base stations in the RAN. The identifier sets include a first identifier set associated with a first base station set of the plurality of respective sets of base stations. The method also includes determining (704) that the first base station set is to serve a user device and assigning (706) a first identifier from the first identifier set to the user device. The method further includes transmitting (708) the first identifier to the user device and jointly transmitting, by at least two base stations of the first base station set, information to the user device via a channel, including using (710) the first identifier to indicate that the channel carries information for the user device.

    Abstract: The techniques described in this disclosure enhance the reception of the information at a user equipment (UE) from an Active Coordination Set (ACS) of a wireless network system, where the ACS includes a set of base stations that jointly operate to communicate data between the system and the UE. The ACS allocates respective subsets of a plurality of time domain resources for use by corresponding ACS base stations in communicating with the UE, and provides, to the UE, an indication of the allocations. Based on the received allocation indication (502), the UE obtains data payload transmitted by the ACS (508) by tuning to various base stations in accordance with their respective time domain resource allocations (505). The ACS may redundantly transmit selected data payload and/or employ different encoding schemes to further enhance reception of information at the UE.
