Abstract: A method of operating a communications device comprises detecting a plurality of beams of radio signals each being transmitted periodically according to a time divided structure of a wireless access interface provided by a wireless communications network, selecting a first of the plurality of beams of radio signals for detecting a first version of a synchronisation signal transmitted with the first beam of radio signals, selecting a second of the plurality of beams of radio signals for detecting a second version of the synchronisation signal transmitted with the second beam of radio signals, and synchronising with the time divided structure of the wireless access interface from at least one of the first version of the synchronisation signal and the second version of the synchronisation signal.

Abstract: A terminal device and a method of operating a terminal device in a wireless communication network. The method comprises establishing, by the terminal device, a first radio connection with a first network access node for transmission of data via a first bearer and a second radio connection with the first network access node for transmission of data via a second bearer. Based on a difference between quality of service for the data transmission via the first bearer and the second bearer, a third radio connection is established between the terminal device and a second network access node for transmission of the data via the first bearer; and the third radio connection is established between the terminal device and the second network access node, a fourth radio connection is established between the terminal device and the second network access node for transmission of the data via the second bearer.

Abstract: A terminal device for use with a wireless telecommunications network, the terminal device comprising: sensor circuitry configured to detect a value of a parameter which is variable in response to a variation in vertical position of the terminal device; receiver circuitry configured to receive, from infrastructure equipment of the wireless telecommunications network, a reference value of the parameter and a reference value of the vertical position at which the reference value of the parameter is associated; processing circuitry configured to determine a value of the vertical position of the terminal device defined relative to a second reference vertical position, wherein the determining comprises: determining the second reference vertical position based on a geographical position of the terminal device; determining a value of the vertical position of the terminal device defined relative to the first reference vertical position based on the detected value of the parameter; determining the value of the vertical position of the terminal device defined relative to the second reference vertical position based on a difference between the determined value of the vertical position of the terminal device defined relative to the first reference vertical position and the second reference vertical position.

Abstract: A terminal device configured to receive a radio signal from which measurements can be used to assist in determining a position of the terminal device. The terminal device detects one or more system information blocks carrying position assistance information transmitted from the infrastructure equipment and estimates the position of the terminal device by combining the identified position assistance information with the radio signal received by the position detection receiver circuitry. Furthermore the terminal device receives from the infrastructure equipment an indication of relative risk that the position assistance information will change, and in response to the indication of the relative risk that the position assistance information will change to adapt the receiving of the one or more system information blocks to receive an updated version of the position assistance information in accordance with the relative risk.
