When a first wireless device transitions to a new state, it continues sidelink transmission to a second wireless device using an initial sidelink configuration received via dedicated signaling. The first device then receives an updated sidelink configuration via broadcast signaling and adjusts its sidelink transmission accordingly.

Tianyang Bai

Wireless System Engineer at Google.

Bai received the B.Eng. degree from the Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin, China, in 2011, and the M.S.E. and Ph.D. degrees from The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX, USA, in 2013 and 2016, respectively, all in electrical engineering.

His research interests include applications of stochastic geometry, mmWave communications, and massive MIMO.

A first node receives multiple beams from a second node, determines their times of arrival, identifies beams of interest based on these times, and reports them to the second node. The second node then transmits position reference signals in the direction of the identified beams of interest.

The UE transmits capability information to a serving cell for performing L1/L2 measurements on target reference signals from a non-serving cell. Based on this, the UE receives a configuration with a TCI state to schedule reception of the target RS and perform measurements. The number of RS reported depends on UE capability, received indications, or pre-configuration.

A tool monitoring device detects a failure in a tool’s wireless communication system. The tool is stored in an enclosure. The device determines the failure is caused by the enclosure’s temperature being outside the system’s operating range. A notification of the failure or its cause is displayed or sent to a tool tracking device.

Makesh has elevated the field through his pioneering work in simultaneous multi-beam transmissions and interference mitigation in full-duplex communication systems. Wilson's innovations have the potential to transform various industries and pave the way for a more connected and efficient future.

It obtains a radar point cloud and camera frames, estimates pixel depths, and generates a pseudo lidar point cloud as a 3D representation of the camera data. The device determines object bounding boxes using both the radar and pseudo lidar point clouds.

Andreas Nilsson

Andreas’ inventions revolve around multi-antenna technology, encompassing both user equipment and network nodes, with particularly significant contributions to massive MIMO and multi-TRP operations.

He is currently a Master Researcher and an integral part of the STAR Multi-Antenna (MA) Team. Andreas’ patent applications, including Standard Essential Patents (SEPs), align with the 3GPP standard for 5G NR and are further anticipated to be incorporated into the 6G standard in the near future.

The node obtains an indication of interference in a time/frequency interval. It queries a neighboring node about uplink scheduling in that interval and receives a response. The response includes information on uplink reference signal resources, ports, and their scheduling for terminal devices.

Senior Researcher at Tencent Media Lab.

The method reduces the number of contexts by shrinking the array size for syntax elements in predictive tree-based coding. The point cloud data is then decoded using the reduced contexts.
