Abstract: The functions of user equipment (UE), radio access network (RAN) devices, and core network (CN) devices in circumstances where a UE is expected to experience discontinuous coverage are described herein. A UE may send a CN a non-access stratum (NAS) message including a release request indicating that a UE is leaving coverage and assistance information. The CN may interrupt paging of the UE and resume the paging according to the assistance information. A UE may enter a low power usage mode upon leaving coverage, and may use one or more timers to determine when to check for coverage and send a mobility update message corresponding to the low power usage mode. A base station may receive, from a UE, a radio resource control (RRC) message comprising a release request and assistance information, send an RRC release message to the UE in response, and forward the assistance information to the CN.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) and/or cellular network to resume a connection. To resume the connection, the UE may transmit a fully protected connection resume message, e.g., which may include protection for a resume cause field.

Abstract: Extending cellular telecommunication service from a first UE to another device. The first UE may register for cellular telecommunication service with a cellular network using a first cellular service account, using a cellular communication link via a cellular radio. A second device may be discovered and a communication link may be established between the first UE and the second device. The second device may be registered to use cellular telecommunication capability provided by the first UE. Communications between the second device and the cellular network may be conveyed via the communication link between the first UE and the second device and the cellular communication link. Conveying communications between the second device and the cellular network may provide use of the first cellular service account for cellular telecommunication service to the second device.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems to coordinate resource allocation between two UEs for sidelink communication. A receiving UE receiving sidelink communication from a transmitting UE may configure coordination resources used to coordinate sidelink communication between the two UEs. The receiving UE may receive from the transmitting UE data indicating resources reserved and intended to be used by the transmitting UE to transmit sidelink data to the receiving UE. The receiving UE may determine a coordination message used to indicate whether the resources reserved by the transmitting UE are available for use by the receiving UE to receive the sidelink data from the transmitting UE. The receiving UE may determine resources from the coordination resources to be used to carry the coordination message and may transmit the coordination message carried on the selected resources to indicate to the transmitting UE whether to use the reserved resources for the sidelink data.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing wireless communications including signaling resource allocation for multiple transport blocks (TBs) on either PUSCH or PDSCH using a single control element, such as a DCI. In various scenarios, the multiple TBs may be scheduled either at contiguous or at non-contiguous dime-domain resources. Various mechanisms are disclosed for performing signaling the resource allocation for the multiple TBs without introducing excessive signaling overhead.

Abstract: An approach is described for a base station to generate a first message and a second message. The base station transmits the first message and the second message to a user equipment (UE). The first message is associated with a cell supported by the base station and includes a first public land mobile network (PLMN) identity index and a first list of one or more network slices supported by a first PLMN associated with the first PLMN identity index. The second message is associated with one or more neighboring cells, and includes the first PLMN identity index and a second list of one or more network slice data associated the first PLMN as supported by the one or more neighboring cells. In addition, at least one of the one or more network slice data in the second list includes a sub-list of one or more neighboring cell data.

Abstract: Disclosed are apparatuses and methods for measuring and/or reporting UE-to-UE crosslink interference (CLI). Techniques of realizing efficient L3 CLI RSSI and SRS-RSRP reporting and triggering mechanisms are disclosed. The disclosed apparatuses and methods can configure a measurement object to include a cross-link sounding reference signal (SRS) resource or a cross-link received signal strength indicator (RSSI) resource. A level of cross-link interference (CLI) between a first user equipment (UE) and a second UE based is determined, at least in part, on the configured measurement object. Then, in response to occurrence of a predetermined event, a report is generated that includes the level of CLI. The measurement object is configured to include a resource configuration parameters for a cross-link interference received signal strength indicator (CLI-RSSI) measurement and sounding reference signal (SRS) resource configurations for a cross-link SRS reference signal received power (SRS-RSRP) measurement. One of the first or second UEs can transmit the report.

Abstract: A serial data receiver circuit included in a computer system may include a front-end circuit, a sample circuit that includes multiple analog-to-digital converter circuits, and a recovery circuit. The sample circuit may sample a serial data stream at different times that correspond to even-numbered and odd-numbered symbols in the serial data stream. The recovery circuit may use different coefficients to process the respective samples of the even-numbered and odd-numbered symbols in order to recover the data symbols encoded in the serial data stream.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a power converter circuit included in a computer system magnetizes and de-magnetizes an inductor coupled to a switch node using high-side and low-side switches to alternatively couple a switch node to an input power supply node and a ground supply node. In response to detecting a drop in the voltage level of the input power supply node, the power converter circuit may adjust an on-resistance of the high-side switch to maintain performance at the lower voltage level of the input power supply node.
