    Abstract: An apparatus, method and computer program is described comprising: determining, at a user device of a mobile communication system, one or more parameters of a serving cell and one or more target cells at a first time instance; and estimating one or more time delay metrics for each of the one or more target cells based on said parameters, such that an optimal time point for performing a handover can be determined. The time delay metrics comprise one or more of: a first time delay corresponding to a time period between the first time instance and a time instance at which a signal strength of the serving cell is predicted to match a signal strength of the respective target cell; and a second time delay corresponding to a time period between the first time instance and a time instance at which the signal strength of the respective target cell is predicted to be higher than the signal strength of the serving cell by an offset value.

    Abstract: This disclosure presents solutions for a IoT/eMTC over NTN communication system of a non-terrestrial network (NTN) node and a user equipment (UE) to determine whether and how scheduling information can be sent in the resources for a HARQ feedback, when the HARQ feedback is disabled. In some example embodiments, the UE can signal a buffer size. e.g., buffer status, by encoding the HARQ feedback and scheduling request (SR) utilizing two bits to provide the fast scheduling information. The NTN node can specify to the UE a set of HARQ parameters to provide an indication of HARQ feedback status, which can be disabling or enabling of HARQ feedback, and to provide an indication of the resources for transmission of HARQ feedback when the indication of HARQ feedback status is disabling.

    Abstract: This disclosure presents apparatuses and methods to determine, assign, and communicate paging subgroups using assistance information. In some aspects, assistance information can include user equipment (UE) parameters, for example, UE capability parameters, UE type parameters, ID preference parameters, location parameters, or mobility parameters. In some aspects, assistance information can include network parameters, cell parameters, or information about a subset or all UEs registered on the network. The radio access network (RAN) or core network (CN) can utilize the assistance information to determine the number of paging subgroups and to assign one or more subsets of UEs to each paging subgroup. The RAN or CN can communicate the paging subgroups to one or more of the UEs within the network. In some aspects, the paging subgroup can be directly indicated to the UE. In some aspects, the paging subgroup can be derived by the UE using the received paging subgroup information.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure propose a solution for availability of system broadcasted information such as GNSS information which can be used for deriving time and/or frequency domain compensation. According to embodiments of this present disclosure, a validity timer for system broadcasted information is introduced in both UE and network to guarantee the system broadcasted information availability status is synchronized in two nodes, and the system broadcasted information is valid to pre-compensate in time and/or frequency domain when the timer is running. In this way, the UE can be scheduled with correct timing and frequency estimation in UL transmission.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method comprising receiving a data packet from an access node, combining the received data packet with previous repetitions of the data packet to obtain a combined data packet, attempting to decode information comprised in the combined data packet, determining that the attempt to decode was not successful, determining an estimate of energy required for a correct reception of the data packet and based, at least partly, on the determined estimation for the energy, determining an additional number of repetitions of the data packet.
