In some implementations, a device may determine a signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) value associated with a communication channel between a user equipment and the device. The device may select, based on the SINR value, a channel quality indicator (CQI) value associated with the communication channel or a sounding reference signal (SRS) from the UE to determine a multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) configuration for transmitting data to the UE. The device may determine the MIMO configuration according to the CQI value based on the SINR value being a first value. The device may determine the MIMO configuration according to the SRS based on the SINR value being a second value that is different than the first value. The device may transmit the data to the UE using the MIMO configuration.

Systems and methods for determining a massive multiple-input and multiple-output configuration for transmitting data

A device may determine traffic information of a user equipment (UE) operating in a first operating mode. The first operating mode may be associated with the UE monitoring a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), via a first bandwidth part (BWP), according to a first rate. The device may determine, based on the traffic information, that the UE is to operate in a different operating mode including one of: a second operating mode associated with monitoring the PDCCH, via the first BWP, according to a second rate exceeding the first rate, a third operating mode associated with monitoring the PDCCH, via a second BWP less than the first BWP, according to the second rate, or a fourth operating mode associated with monitoring the PDCCH, via the second BWP, according to the first rate. The device may cause the UE to transition to the different operating mode.

The disclosed embodiments are directed toward improvements in dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) between cellular network technologies. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising initiating scheduling for a resource in a slot and determining a neighboring base station associated with user equipment (UE). The method then determines a type of interference associated with the neighboring base station and the slot and identifies an outer loop link adaptation (OLLA) value associated with the type of interference. An effective data rate is calculated based on the OLLA value and the method completes scheduling using the effective data rate.

Interference avoidance based on multiple outer loop link adaptation (OLLA) processes

The present disclosure is a post mount that has a fence post with a protrusion that expands a length of the fence post. Further, the post mount has a support stud that has one or more openings for receiving one or more fasteners and slot originating at a bottom of the support stud and terminating before the top of the support stud. The slot goes through the support stud from a front of the support stud and opening in a back of the support stud. The slot receives the protrusion.

Post mount

A self contained alarm device is disclosed for aiding in the prevention of the theft of articles from an automobile, such as a citizens band radio, by sounding an audible alarm in the event of an attempted theft. The device includes a box or container in which the article to be protected is mounted and at least one switch mounted on the outside of the container for articles, and at least one switch between the container for the articles and the lid for the container so that removing the container from the surface on which it is mounted will cause an audible alarm to be sounded. One embodiment of the device also includes an electrically conducting wire forming a loop outside of the container for encircling an element of the automobile such as the steering column so that if the loop is cut, the audible alarm will also be sounded.
