    Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to describe reporting and/or reacting to a mobility event. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may comprise a processor configured, at least in part, to establish a proximity service (ProSe) session with a second WTRU, detect the occurrence of a mobility event in a cellular network while the ProSe session is ongoing, determine a type of action to be performed with respect to the ProSe session based on one or more of the type of mobility event and type of ProSe session, and transmit a notification to a node in the cellular network, wherein the notification includes an indication of an action to be performed on the ProSe session. The node may be one of an evolved Node B (eNB), proximity server, or mobility management entity (MME). The node may be the second WTRU.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for reading a system message, including: receiving, by a terminal device, a paging message containing a system message state indication in a discontinuous reception (DRX) period, the terminal device includes a terminal device of which the DRX period is larger than a broadcast control channel (BCCH) modification period; determining, by the terminal device and according to the system message state indication in the paging message, that a system message state changes; reading and recording, by the terminal device, a system message corresponding to a current BCCH modification period, or reading and recording a system message corresponding to a next BCCH modification period immediately adjacent to the BCCH modification period; and communicating by the terminal device according to the read and recorded system message. Thus, the electric quantity of a battery can be saved, so that a UE can reduce power consumption.

    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to adaptively changing availability of neighbor awareness networking (NAN) devices for post-NAN activities. In some embodiments, a first NAN enabled device may generate a NAN service discovery frame. The first NAN enabled device may transmit the NAN service discovery frame to a plurality of NAN enabled devices during a discovery window of the NAN. A request frame from a second NAN enabled device may be received based at least in part on transmitting the NAN service discovery frame. A response frame may be transmitted to the second NAN enabled device. A second NAN service discovery frame may be generated and include an updated availability bitmap based at least in part on data received in the request frame from the second NAN enabled device. The first NAN enabled device may transmit the second NAN service discovery frame.
