    Abstract: An LTE network extension (LNE) system includes an LTE access gateway (LAG) and a provisioned database. A plurality of LTE access radios in the LNE system broadcast the same shared PLMN ID (sPLMN ID). The sPLMN ID corresponds to a plurality of service provider core networks, each with a different PLMN. The provisioned database includes information identifying which networks are allowed to use the LNE system and includes service provider network address information. An LTE access radio, transmitting the sPLMN ID detects an attach request from a UE, and forwards the attach request to the LAG, which decides if access is to be allowed, based on a service provider home network PLMN included in an IMSI in the attach request and information in the provisioned database. If access is allowed, the LAG serves as a proxy between the LTE access radio and the UE's service provider home network.

    Abstract: A method for a control device to control a connection between a first device and a second device using short-range wireless communication, the method comprising: transmitting, to the first device, a first message including a first operation code for reconnection after an initial connection between the first device and the second device is established, wherein the first operation code includes a first code instructing storage of an address of the second device in a first white list including addresses of devices connected to the first device at least once; transmitting, to the second device, a second message including a second operation code for the reconnection, wherein the second operation code includes a second code instructing storage of an address of the first device in a second white list including addresses of devices connected to the second device at least once; and instructing the first device and the second device to form a connection between the first device and the second device, wherein each of the first white list and the second white list includes addresses of devices connected without the control device when a connection is released after the initial connection.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. In some implementations, a UE may determine that a maximum permissible exposure (MPE) restriction applies to UE transmissions, and the UE may transmit at a lower power to meet the restriction. The UE may be configured to account for lower power transmission when selecting between a two-step or a four-step random access channel (RACH) procedure. In some cases, the UE may identify a RACH procedure selection rule for selecting between the two-step RACH procedure and the four-step RACH procedure based on whether an exposure condition (e.g., MPE restriction) is identified. The selection rule may indicate one or more synchronization signal block based reference signal received power thresholds to be used by the UE to select between the two-step RACH procedure and four-step RACH procedure. The UE may perform the selected RACH procedure.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) communication including first downlink control information (DCI) that grants resources for a dedicated control physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) communication. The UE may receive the dedicated control PDSCH communication, wherein the dedicated control PDSCH includes second DCI. Numerous other aspects are described.

    Abstract: A method includes: determining an access identity of a terminal device based on an access class of the terminal device, where the access identity is determined based on the access class, the access class is one of an access class 0 to an access class 9, and the access class 0 to the access class 9 correspond to one or more of the following access identities: an access identity 3 to an access identity 10, or H access identities whose access identity numbers are greater than or equal to 16, where H is a positive integer; determining, based on the access identity, that the terminal device applies a first access control parameter set; and determining, based on the first access control parameter set, whether the terminal device is allowed to access a first cell. An access class allocated to the terminal device corresponds to a new access identity.

    Abstract: A method performed by a network node, for controlling access of a first User Equipment (UE) and a second UE to a cell in a radio communications network is provided. The first UE is of a low complexity type, and wherein the second UE is of a regular type. A first association is assigned to the first UE. The first association associates the first UE with its low complexity type. A second association is assigned to the second UE. The second association associates the second UE with its regular type. The network node controls (302) access of the first UE and second UE by sending a rule to the first UE and second UE. The rule is related to access control that is different for UEs with different associations, for accessing to the radio communications network. The rule triggers the first UE to perform access barring check based on the first association and the obtained rule when initiating an access attempt to the cell, while the second UE performs access barring check based on the second association and the obtained rule.
