Abstract
A user equipment obtains a radio characteristics measurement for at least one of a plurality of antennas of the user equipment. Responsive to the radio characteristics measurement satisfying a grip pattern reconfiguration rule, the user equipment selects a grip pattern from among a set of grip patterns, and generates a grip pattern notification through a user interface based on the grip pattern that was selected.
Claims20
A user equipment, UE, comprising:
- antennas;
- transceiver circuitry connected to the antennas to transmit and/or receive signals;
- a user interface configured to generate notifications to users;
- a processor connected to the transceiver circuitry and the user interface;
- a memory storing program code that is executed by the processor to perform operations comprising:
- obtaining a radio characteristics measurement for at least one of the antennas;
- responsive to the radio characteristics measurement satisfying a grip pattern reconfiguration rule, selecting a grip pattern from among a set of grip patterns;
- and
- generating a grip pattern notification through the user interface based on the grip pattern that was selected.
A method by a user equipment, UE, having antennas, transceiver circuitry connected to the antennas to transmit and receive signals, a user interface configured to generate notifications to users, and a processor connected to the transceiver circuitry and the user interface, the method comprising:
- obtaining a radio characteristics measurement for at least one of the antennas;
- responsive to the radio characteristics measurement satisfying a grip pattern reconfiguration rule, selecting a grip pattern from among a set of grip patterns;
- and
- generating a grip pattern notification through the user interface based on the grip pattern that was selected.
(canceled)
A network node comprising:
- a network interface configured to be connected to a network for communication with user equipment, UEs;
- a processor connected to the network interface;
- a memory storing program code that is executed by the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving messages through the network interface from UEs, the messages containing information indicating effects that different grip patterns among a set have on communication performance of the UEs and contain characteristics of the UEs corresponding to a timeframe while the effects were determined, the characteristics indicating at least one of spatial locations of the UEs and poses of the UEs relative to a rotational reference system;
- generating a repository that associates the effects with the characteristics of the UEs;
- receiving a grip pattern selection request message from one of the UEs;
- selecting a grip pattern from among the set of grip patterns using content of the grip pattern selection request message as a reference pointer within the repository;
- and
- communicating a grip pattern notification message toward the one of the UEs, the grip pattern notification message indicating the grip pattern that was selected.
