    Abstract: The present disclosure is generally related to wireless and cellular communication, communication system implementations, and in particular, to support for mobile terminated small data transmission (MT-SDT) in 5G systems (5GS). A UE initiates a radio resource control (RRC) resume procedure with a resume cause value of “mt-SDT” in an RRC resume request when a mobile terminated small data transmission (MT-SDT) indication for the UE is included in a received paging message and a set of conditions for initiating MT-SDT have been fulfilled. The UE initiates the RRC resume procedure with a resume cause value of “mt-Access” in the RRC resume request message when the set of conditions for initiating MT-SDT have not been fulfilled. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus comprising: memory to store policy statement information for a plurality of radio access network (RAN) automation applications (rApps); and processing circuitry, coupled with the memory, to: retrieve the policy statement information from the memory, wherein the policy statement information includes respective policy scope identifiers for respective rApps in the plurality of rApps; identify a conflict associated with common or overlapping policy scope identifiers between two or more rApps from the plurality of rApps; modify one or more A1 policies associated with an A1 interface connecting a non-real-time (non-RT) RAN intelligence controller (RIC) and a near-real-time (near-RT) RIC to resolve the conflict; and notify the two or more rApps of the modification of the one or more A1 policies.

    Abstract: An apparatus of a Radio Access Network (RAN) node, a system, and a method. The apparatus includes one or more processors to, during a non-dual connectivity (non-DC) radio link control (RLC) acknowledged mode (AM) handover of a user equipment (UE) from a source RAN node to the RAN node: process a message including information on at least one of an uplink (UL) COUNT value, a downlink (DL) COUNT value, or a hyper frame number (HFN) corresponding to UL or DL packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) data units (DUs) communicated between the UE and the source RAN node; determine the at least one of the UL COUNT value, the DL COUNT value or the HFN from the message; and process the PDCP DUs based on the at least one of the UL COUNT value, the DL COUNT value.

    Abstract: An apparatus of a Radio Access Network (RAN) node, a system, and a method. The apparatus includes one or more processors to generate a message including a downlink (DL) delivery data status (DDDS) frame including flags to indicate a presence of all associated optional information elements therein, the DDDS frame including information elements corresponding to an out-of-sequence delivery report for DL packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) protocol data units (PDUs) (PDCP PDUs) successfully delivered or delivered from the RAN node to a user equipment (UE); and cause transmission of the DDDS frame to a receiving node corresponding to the RAN node in a New Radio (NR) network, the receiving node hosting a NR packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) (NR PDCP) entity.
