Abstract:
Methods, apparatuses and computer readable media are described that adjust radio resource control connection states between a mobile wireless device and a wireless network following determination that a set of inactivity trigger conditions is met. Time periods between successive data messages and/or signaling messages transmitted to and/or received from a wireless access network are measured. When a prolonged period of data inactivity and/or signaling activity is determined, the mobile wireless device re-establishes an existing radio resource control connection to the wireless access network or releases the radio resource control connection to the wireless access network and transitions to an idle state.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) is configured to join a standalone non-public network (SNPN). The receives SNPN information from one or more broadcast messages transmitted from a base station serving as an onboarding base station for the SNPN, determines whether the onboarding base station may be used for onboarding by the UE based on the SNPN information and UE SNPN information stored at the UE and onboards the UE to the SNPN when it is determined that the onboarding base station may be used for onboarding by the UE.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) configured to establish a packet data unit (PDU) session with a network, wherein the PDU session comprises a quality of service (QOS) flow, receive one or more radio resource control (RRC) messages indicating a configured grant (CG) allocated to the UE, wherein the QoS flow is mapped to a logical channel (LCH) and wherein the LCH is mapped to the CG and transmit data on a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) using a time and a frequency resource of the CG.
Abstract:
A base station may be configured to perform operations related to link management for a remote user equipment (UE). The operations comprising, transmitting configuration information to the remote UE and receiving information corresponding to a serving link associated with the remote UE. The operations further comprising determining that the serving link associated with the remote UE is to be switched from a first communication link to a second communication link. The operations further comprising, transmitting a message to the remote UE indicating that the serving link associated with the remote UE is to be switched from the first communication link to the second communication link. The operations further comprising, transmitting a message to a relay UE. The message is configured to trigger the relay UE to perform an operation corresponding to the serving link associated with the remote UE.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) configured to establish a multimedia data stream with a further UE, identify a predetermined condition, wherein the predetermined condition indicates a decrease in quality of the multimedia data stream at the further UE and implement a mechanism to mitigate the degradation of the decrease in quality of the multimedia data stream at the further UE.
Abstract:
A relay user equipment (UE) configured to operate as a relay between a remote UE and a network component performs a method. The method includes determining at least one relay capability of the relay UE and performing a relay access control operation that indicates to the remote UE whether the remote UE is permitted to use the relay UE as the relay.
Abstract:
Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device to perform negotiation of bearer type configuration and/or related parameters. A user equipment device (UE) and/or network may determine a bearer configuration and/or other parameters based on information or measurements of the UE. The UE and the BS may exchange data using a negotiated configuration.
Abstract:
Described is a user equipment (UE) that is connected to a network component, the user equipment and the network component configured with a carrier aggregation functionality. The UE performs a method that includes determining a primary component carrier and at least one secondary component carrier associated with the carrier aggregation functionality of the user equipment, determining a component carrier quality measurement (CQM) metric for each of the component carriers, when an uplink data packet is capable of being transmitted over the secondary component carrier, selecting one of the primary component carrier and the at least one secondary component carrier based on the CQM metrics, generating measurement data indicative of the selected component carrier to increase a probability to transmit the uplink data packet over the selected component carrier and transmitting the measurement data to the network component.
Abstract:
Apparatus, system and methods for evaluating link quality within a cellular system. A user equipment (“UE”) is connected to a network, wherein the UE communicates data to the network on an uplink (“UL”) link. The UE determines a requested buffer size for a UL communication, determines a transport block size for the UL communication based on a primary set of allocation parameters, and compares the requested buffer size to the transport block size to determine if a data rate for the UL communication satisfies a threshold. When the data rate satisfies the threshold, the UE identifies the UL link as a good quality link and sends acceptable link quality feedback to the network. When the data rate does not satisfy the threshold, the UE performs a further action to test a quality of the UL link.
Abstract:
A method for reducing scheduling requests by a wireless communication device transmitting data using dynamically scheduled resources over a logical is provided. The method includes receiving, at the wireless communication device, a configuration from a network entity that sets a LogicalChannelSR-Mask for a logical channel for which uplink resources can be dynamically scheduled by the wireless network. The method further includes waiting to send a scheduling request (SR) for a delay time period when data is available to be sent on the logical channel and uplink resources have not been granted. The method additionally includes using the grant to send the data without sending an SR when a grant is received within the delay time period; or sending an SR when a grant is not received within the delay time period. In another method, a network selectively enables or disables SRs for a logical channel through explicit signaling.
