    Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods directed to mitigating a local interference condition caused by concurrent transmissions in a multi-radio access technology and multi-connectivity environment. For a user equipment transmitting data in a multi-radio access technology/multi-connectivity environment, an interference manager application directs the user equipment to determine that an interference condition exists local to user equipment. The interference manager application directs the user equipment to determine a configuration of the user equipment wireless-communication hardware to mitigate the local interference condition and directs the user equipment to transmit a request message to a base station, causing the base station to configure wireless-communication hardware of the base station to receive data transmitted by the user equipment in accordance with the determined configuration of the user equipment wireless-communication hardware that mitigates the determined local interference condition.

    Abstract: This document describes techniques and apparatuses that include a three-dimensional (3D) antenna module for transmitting or receiving electromagnetic millimeter waves (mmWaves). In general, a user equipment (UE) may include the 3D antenna module in a corner of a housing of the UE. The 3D antenna module may include three antenna panels that are generally planar and generally orthogonal to three respective axes of a Cartesian-coordinate system. The 3D antenna module may transmit and receive the electromagnetic mmWaves as part of a wireless link between the UE and another device, such as a satellite that is part of a wireless-communication network. In general, the 3D antenna module may mitigate propagation losses and allow the UE to maintain a link-budget for the wireless link.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes techniques and systems for wireless communication via a mobile relay. These techniques may include a user device that determines that a transceiver is unavailable for communicating with a base station via a wireless connection. The user device then uses a mobile relay to communicate with the base station while the transceiver is unavailable. The mobile relay may be used for transmitting or receiving data from the base station. Additionally or alternatively, the mobile relay may participate in the wireless connection as an external resource of the mobile device or may establish an independent wireless connection with the base station.

    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: The present disclosure describes methods and apparatuses for narrow-band communication. In some aspects, a base station determines a quantity of resource elements to allocate to a user device for wireless communication based on a state of the user device. The base station selects, from a resource block, resource elements for the user device that include the determined quantity of resource elements and a portion of subcarriers of the resource block. The base station then communicates, to the user device, an identification of the selected resource elements that includes respective frequencies and time locations of the selected resource elements within the resource block.

    Abstract: A system and method of network slicing for sidelink devices. The method includes establishing a sidelink connection with a second UE (104). The method includes receiving, from the second UE (104) via the sidelink connection (119), a first request for a network slice of a physical network (106). The method includes transmitting, responsive to receiving the first request for the network slice, a first message to the physical network over a first network slice between the first UE (102) and the physical network (106) to request the physical network to establish a second network slice communicatively coupling the second UE (104) to the physical network (106) via the sidelink connection (119).

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) that supports a plurality of radio access technologies (RATs) can implement a method for communicating with a radio access network (RAN). The method includes detecting (402C), by processing hardware, that an application executing on an operating system (OS) invoked an application programming interface (API) that passes information to lower one or more layers of a protocol stack, for facilitating RAT selection. The method also includes receiving (404C), via the API at the lower one or more layers, a parameter related to data the application expects to communicate within a certain period of time with the RAN, including receiving the parameter before the lower one or more layers receives the data from the application or the RAN. The method further includes causing (406C) at least one RAT to be selected from the plurality of RATs based at least in part on the parameter, for communicating the data.
