    Abstract: Embodiments of a system and method for personal area network (PAN) communication for wearable devices in a wireless network are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a wearable user equipment (wUE) includes processing circuitry and transceiver circuitry. The processing circuitry is to: configure the wUE to enter into an active state; and configure the transceiver circuitry to: scan, in response to entering into the active state, for a Beacon signal from a network user equipment (nUE); upon failing to detect the Beacon signal, send a probe signal to the nUE; and upon detecting the Beacon signal or upon receiving a response to the probe signal, connect to a PAN associated with the nUE.

    Abstract: Embodiments of an Evolved Node-B (eNB), User Equipment (UE) and methods for directional communication are generally described herein. The eNB may transmit, signal and an uplink scheduling block to a first UE according to a downlink transmission direction from the eNB to the first UE. The eNB 104 may further transmit, during the downlink sub-frame, a second beam refinement training signal and a downlink scheduling block to a second UE according to a downlink transmission direction from the eNB to the second UE. The uplink scheduling block may indicate scheduled uplink resources for a scheduled uplink transmission by the first UE and the downlink scheduling block may indicate scheduled downlink resources for a scheduled downlink transmission to the second UE.

    Abstract: Opportunistic networking systems can utilize one or multiple bands/channels that are shared with other radio access technologies (RATs) (such as wireless local area networks (WLAN, such as Wi-Fi) and mmWave). An unconventional carrier type (UCT) can be defined to support opportunistic networking in licensed and/or unlicensed spectrum. For example, a primary base station can determine a secondary base station activated for use with user equipment (UE). The primary base station can schedule data to be sent to the UE via the secondary base station. The secondary base station can provide discovery information, reserve a wireless channel, transmit the data and/or release the channel (implicitly, explicitly, or by reservation).

    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a wireless personal-area network (PAN) underlying a cellular wide-area network (WAN). The PAN includes a wearable user equipment (UE-W) and a user equipment aggregation node (UE-AN). The UE-W includes processing circuitry to process data for communication with a network of the WAN through the UE-AN, and radio interface circuitry to communicate with the UE-AN through a first air interface. The UE-AN includes processing to process data for communication between the network of the WAN and the UE-W, and radio interface circuitry to communicate with the network of the WAN through the first air interface and with the UE-W through a second air interface. The UE-W and the UE-AN can share a network credential, appearing as a single device to the WAN.
