Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for providing broadcast and multicast services to wireless devices while in Idle and Inactive modes a wireless communication system. A wireless device may establish a wireless link with a cellular base station of a cellular network. The wireless device may receive information indicating whether provision of a broadcast or multicast service in one or more of an inactive mode or an idle mode is supported by the cellular network. The wireless device may receive the broadcast or multicast service in one or more of the inactive mode or the idle mode based at least in part on the information indicating whether provision of the broadcast or multicast service in one or more of the inactive mode or the idle mode is supported by the cellular network.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing relay communication by a relay wireless device in a wireless communication system. A relay wireless device may receive bearer configuration information from a network. Based on the bearer configuration information, the UE may establish a bearer with a remote wireless device. The relay wireless device may forward data to/from the remote wireless device using the bearer.

Abstract: Systems and methods for using integrated access and backhaul (IAB) nodes configured to provide multi-access edge computing (MEC) functionality are disclosed herein. An TAB node includes a distributed unit (DU) having a local application instance of a MEC-enabled application. The local application instance is configured for communication with a first user equipment (UE) connected to the TAB node. A mobile termination functionality (MT) of the TAB node uses a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer to transport data of the local application instance between the MT and an IAB donor. Further, data of the local application instance is transported between the UE and the TAB node via one of a variety of methods, including the use of a second PDCP layer at the DU (and optionally the use of service data adaptation protocol (SDAP) layers at each of the DU and the MT), and/or via sidelink.

Abstract: Peer devices may wirelessly communicate with each other over a bidirectional sidelink logical channel (LCH) through an established bidirectional sidelink radio bearer. An initiating device of the peer devices may dynamically select a logical channel ID for establishing a fully bidirectional or semi-bidirectional SLRB. At least two alternative sidelink radio resource control (PC5-RRC) procedures may ensure the SLRB parameters are configured correctly in the established logical channel. The procedures also allow the network to configure a limited SLRB which is used to couple the SLRB configuration in the direction in which limited traffic (e.g. feedback information such as robust header compression feedback and/or status reports) is transmitted.
