Abstract: In a communication device and corresponding methods, a hierarchical, reduced power, beam search process includes a hierarchical activation of the radio frequency frontend (RFFE), transceiver, and baseband integrated circuit (BBIC) for a beam searching operations. For example, a first signal metric measurements can be performed to determine signal information. An operating mode can be determined based on the signal information. In a first operating mode, one or more second signal metric measurements can be performed for a subset of beamforming configurations of the wireless communication device to determine beamforming information. In a second operating mode, one or more third signal metric measurements can be performed on the beamforming configurations to determine the beamforming information.

Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and devices for placing bits in an isochronous data stream from a first data port to a second data port. A device may inject, using a first port, based on a periodicity less than a defined frame rate of a data stream comprising multiple frames, a status or control bit in place of one or more low-order bits, reserved bits, or unused bits of a frame of the data stream, wherein the frame includes one or more data words; receive, using a second port synchronized to the periodicity, the data stream from the first port; extract, using the second port, based on the periodicity, the status or control bit; and extract, using the second port, a remainder of the frame.

Abstract: A wireless communication device can include modem circuitry to connect the UE to a repeater over a side-link connection. The device can also include processing circuitry to control a repeater beamforming process to select a beam angle from the repeater to a base station and initiate a communication procedure using the selected beam angle. Other methods, systems and apparatuses are described.

Abstract: Techniques are described related to digital radio control, partitioning, and operation. The various techniques described herein enable high-frequency local oscillator signal generation and frequency multiplication using radio-frequency (RF) digital to analog converters (RFDACs). The use of these components and others described throughout this disclosure allow for the realization of various improvements. For example, digital, analog, and hybrid beamforming control are implemented and the newly-enabled digital radio architecture partitioning enables radio components to be pushed to the radio head, allowing for the omission of high frequency cables and/or connectors.
