Summary of the patent applications from Apple Inc. on December 28th, 2023

Apple Inc. has recently filed several patents related to various technologies. These patents cover areas such as handheld computing devices with glass enclosures, implicit radio resource control state transitions in cellular communication systems, efficient discovery of edge computing servers, beam management operations for user equipment in cells, and periodic registration update procedures for user equipment.

In terms of handheld computing devices, Apple has filed a patent for a device with a glass enclosure that is radio-transparent and water resistant. The glass enclosure can be made from a hollow glass tube or two glass members bonded together using a laser frit bonding process. This technology aims to provide improved water resistance and durability for smartphones, tablets, and wearable devices.

In the field of cellular communication systems, Apple has filed a patent for a method that allows wireless devices to perform implicit radio resource control state transitions. This technology helps in efficient management of radio resources, reducing power consumption, and optimizing network performance.

Apple has also filed a patent for a system that enables efficient discovery of edge computing servers using a wireless device and an edge discovery service. This technology improves resource allocation and reduces latency in edge computing and cloud computing environments.

In the area of wireless communication systems, Apple has filed a patent for a method that allows user equipment to communicate with multiple transmission and reception points. This technology improves communication efficiency and capacity in wireless networks.

Lastly, Apple has filed a patent for a system that manages beam operations for user equipment in a cell. This technology enhances the performance of cellular networks by optimizing the selection of beams for transmission and reception.

Notable applications of these technologies include improved water resistance and durability for handheld devices, efficient resource allocation and reduced latency in edge computing and cloud computing, enhanced communication efficiency and capacity in wireless networks, and optimized performance of cellular networks through beam management operations.
