    Abstract: The method includes receiving first configuration information from a network node, the first configuration information including information on a discontinue reception (DRX) cycle and a notification to monitor a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) transmission carrying a wake-up indication, receiving second configuration information from the network node, the second configuration information including configuration information for secondary cells (SCells) that are associated with the network node, first determining an overlap occurrence using the DRX cycle, the overlap occurrence occurring due to one or more time occurrences overlapping with at least one first bandwidth part (BWP) active-time of an active bandwidth part (BWP) of the PDCCH, activating one more serving cells, following the determining of the overlap occurrence, and conducting an operation of data communications with the network node using the one or more serving cells that are activated. A network node is configured to perform the method.

    Abstract: To report failure status information, an apparatus may receive, from a base station, configuration information configuring two or more beam failure detection reference signal sets for one or more serving cells, wherein at least one of the one or more serving cells is configured with multiple beam failure detection reference signal sets comprising at least a first beam failure detection reference signal set and a second beam failure detection reference signal set. The apparatus may monitor, whether beam failure is detected based on the configuration information and encode, when the beam failure is detected for the first beam failure detection reference signal set and the second beam failure detection reference signal set, into at least two bitmaps in a medium access control control element, MAC CE, failure status information of the first beam failure detection reference signal set and failure status information of the second beam failure detection reference signal set; and transmit the MAC CE comprising the failure status information.

    Abstract: Mechanism on configured grant transmissions is provided. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, after transmitting a configured grant transmission to the network device, the terminal device receives a response to the configured grant transmission. In some embodiments, if the response comprises a timing advance command, the timer for validity of the configured grant transmission is stopped. Alternatively, if the response does not comprise a timing advance command, the timer for validity of the configured grant transmission is stopped and the resources for the configured grant transmission are released. In this way, the terminal device only needs to maintain one timer during the configured grant transmission procedure.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses, and computer readable storage media of procedure selection for SDT. The method comprises receiving, from a second device, information for a Small Data Transmission, SDT, procedure initiation, the information at least indicating at least one criterion for initiating a mobile terminated type SDT procedure; and determining the initiation of the mobile terminated type SDT procedure based on the information. In this way, separate conditions can be configured for MO-SDT and MT-SDT initiation. Furthermore, the MT-SDT initiation conditions can be different depending on whether there is UL data transmission since the transport Block Size (TBS) for random access message could be different.

    Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to resource selections of random access procedure. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, when a random access procedure is triggered for a certain feature combination, the terminal device determines the random access channel (RACH) partition to use based on a defined priority order of (RACH-partition) features whenever a RACH partition that would have matched the feature combination for which the RA procedure is triggered is not provided in the cell. The priority order could be pre-defined in the standards, provided by the Mobile Network Operators (MNO), or signaled dynamically by the network via system information or dedicated signaling (e.g., radio resource control (RRC) or medium access control (MAC) signaling). In this way, better resource selections may be achieved. Moreover, it does not need to configure resources for any possible combinations of features.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to communication for SDT. A first device transmits a resume request for SDT to a second device. The second device transmits, to the first device, a message for rejecting the resume request for a part of data transmissions, said part including SDT. In this way, a resume procedure for non-SDT may still be possible. Further, not congested resources for SDT or non-SDT may be used even in case of RRC reject procedure. In addition, services may be not delayed.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices, apparatuses, and computer readable medium for small data transmission (SDT). The method comprises in accordance with a determination that a first condition related to Small Data Transmission (SDT) is met, determining a target identifier associated with an inactive state of the first device; and transmitting, to the second device, a first message for the SDT comprising the target identifier. By using an I-RNTI determined based on the SDT type, which may be the short I-RNTI or a new I-RNTI even shorter than the short I-RNTI, bits can be saved and used for UL data that can be transmitted while respecting a maximum SDT data threshold configured by the network device.
