Abstract:
Disclosed are techniques for performing thermal mitigation for one or more devices. For instance, a temperature, humidity, amount of light, and/or other characteristic or factor associated with a vehicle can be obtained. Whether to transition one or more communication functions from the vehicle to a user device can be determined based on the temperature, humidity, etc. In response to a determination to transition the one or more communication functions, the one or more communication functions can be transitioned from a communication unit of the vehicle to a communication unit of the user device.
Abstract:
Techniques described herein include utilizing a mobile device as a proxy receiver and/or transmitter for a vehicle in a V2X network. In some embodiments, the mobile device associated mobile device capabilities may be configured to obtain vehicle capabilities and store such data in memory at the mobile device. The mobile device may obtain any suitable combination of a reception credential and one or more transmission credentials. In some embodiments, the one or more transmission credentials may be generated by a credential authority based at least in part on determining that the vehicle capabilities and mobile device capabilities indicate that the sensor(s) and/or processing resources of the vehicle and/or mobile device meet transmission requirement thresholds for the network. The mobile device may subsequently transmit any suitable data message on behalf of the vehicle using at least one of the transmission credentials.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for validating user correlation to sensor data. The method for determining whether sensor data corresponds to a user may include obtaining one or more sensor data sets, wherein each sensor data set is associated with one or more validation indicators. The method may include identifying at least one sensor data set from the one or more sensor data sets based on the one or more validation indicators of each sensor data set. Additionally, the method may include determining whether the identified at least one sensor data set corresponds to a user based on a comparison of sensor data from the identified at least one sensor data set to a user sensor data template. Furthermore, the method may include reporting the determination of whether the identified at least one sensor data set corresponds to the user.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods are disclosed for dynamically allocating an available bandwidth among different applications running at an access terminal operating in a wireless communication system that may be subject to certain bandwidth constraints. In particular, management of the allocation of resources when such resources are determined to be constrained may be implemented at the access terminal itself, for example, by reducing a requested bandwidth corresponding to at least one application flow from among a plurality of application flows. In this way, the superior information available to the access terminal regarding the demands and capabilities of the individual applications can be taken into account. Thus, multiple concurrently running applications competing for common limited resources may achieve a satisfactory level of service or QoS, resulting in an enhanced user experience.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices are provided that may address problems pertaining to effective transmit power control of a communications device operating in a wireless communications system. Some embodiments utilize mechanisms or techniques with dynamically adaptive steps sizes for transmit power control based on one or more trends. Some of these techniques may identify a trend in the transmit power control (TPC) commands and may adapt a TPC step size as a result. Other techniques may be utilized in which transmit power control is based on multiple interference estimates in a frame slot. Having multiple interference estimates at sub-slot intervals may provide additional transmit power control by allowing more transmit power adjustments, or more appropriate adjustments, for each slot. Metric calculations may be performed on one or more techniques to determine appropriate TPC operations.
Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. The apparatus provides or enables dynamic cooperative wireless data delivery service based on dynamic proximate locations of mobile nodes in wireless networks. A source wireless terminal may offload data for delayed transmission by a neighboring wireless terminal. The source may attempt delayed data transmission via any cooperating neighboring node (mule), whether mobile or stationary. A utility function may be used to compare costs of communicating via direct links or through opportunistically available links provided by mules. The mule may advertise availability of indirect data delivery service including probable latency time associated with the indirect delivery service.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for facilitating mobility between flexible bandwidth systems and other bandwidth systems are provided. These tools and techniques that provide mobility between different bandwidth systems may facilitate supporting circuit-switched (CS) services, such as CS voice services. Some embodiments provide for determining flexible bandwidth capable devices, such as user equipment. Some embodiments involve core network redirection where a core network may direct the handling of circuit-switched services when a flexible bandwidth system does not support the CS services. Some examples provide for radio access network determined handling of CS services when a flexible bandwidth system may not support the CS services. Some embodiments provide for transitioning to a flexible bandwidth system. Some embodiments provide for transitioning from flexible bandwidth systems to non-flexible bandwidth systems that have no support for some or all CS services, other flexible bandwidth systems, and/or systems that natively support CS voice services.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for femtocell backhaul sharing. The method includes determining whether an available bandwidth for communication by the network entity is below a bandwidth threshold. The method includes requesting additional bandwidth from at least one neighbor network node in response to determining that the available bandwidth is below the bandwidth threshold. The method includes receiving configuration information from the at least one neighbor network node to increase the available bandwidth by at least a portion of the requested additional bandwidth.
Abstract:
Various embodiments include methods for performing a software/firmware (SW/FW) update of a vehicle without draining the vehicle's battery below a threshold. A vehicle processing system may receive a SW/FW update inquiry that specifies a permissible time window for implementing the update and predict a residual vehicle battery level (RVBL) resulting from receiving and implementing the update based a current battery level. The processing system may transmit an update response to initiate over-the-air reception of the SW/FW update in response to predicting that the RVBL after receiving and implementing the SW/FW update will be above a threshold battery level based on a location of the vehicle and the PTW. Methods may further include transmitting a SW/FW update response that prevents initiation of the SW/FW update, at least temporarily, in response to predicting that the current vehicle battery level is below a minimum battery level threshold for performing the SW/FW update.

Disclosed are techniques for wireless communication. In an aspect, a vehicle-to-everything (V2X)-capable vehicle receives, from a V2X-capable device, one or more V2X messages indicating at least one detected event associated with a road on which the V2X-capable vehicle is travelling, and determines a viable driving trajectory for the V2X-capable vehicle from a plurality of potential driving trajectories of the V2X-capable vehicle based, at least in part, on the at least one detected event.
