    Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage medium for selection of a channel access priority. In example embodiments, a subset of data units from a set of data units is selected for multiplexing into a data packet. The selecting is at least in part based on a channel access priority associated with each of the subset of data unit. The subset of data units is multiplexed into the data packet, and then the data packet is transmitted.

    Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure are related to state transition of a cell. An apparatus receives a monitoring occasion configuration for control information related to a discontinuous operation pattern of a cell, the monitoring occasion configuration indicating at least one monitoring occasion that is before activation of the discontinuous operation pattern or during a time when the discontinuous operation pattern is activated. The apparatus monitors the control information from the device at the at least one monitoring occasion, the control information at least indicating a state transition of the cell between an active state and a non-active state; and based on receiving the control information from the device, and determines, from the control information, the state transition of the cell between the active state and the non-active state.

    Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for user equipment are provided. A method may include determining to transmit, upon data arrival on a logical channel, the data on a configured grant for the logical channel. The method may also include transmitting, based on the determination, the data on the configured grant to activate a cell. In an example embodiment, the transmission on the configured grant may be performed regardless of a current activation status of the cell for which the configured grant is configured, or a suspend status of the configured grant.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to mechanism for providing multiple transmission opportunities. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the network device transmits the random access response which includes an indication as to the number of transmission opportunities. If the random access response includes the preamble of the terminal device, the indication as to the number of transmission opportunities is applied to the terminal device. In this way, overheads are saved and the flexibility is improved.

    Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the apparatus there is at least a method and apparatus to perform determining a grant for data to be communicated, comprising identifying logical channels to be multiplexed into a medium access control protocol data unit for the data to be communicated, wherein at least one of a logical channel identifier for at least one logical channel of the multiplexed logical channels and length of at least one logical channel service data unit is configured to be omitted from the medium access control protocol data unit. Further in accordance with an example embodiment of the apparatus there is at least a method and apparatus to perform receiving a grant for the data to be communicated, comprising logical channels multiplexed into a medium access control protocol data unit for the data to be communicated, wherein at least one of a logical channel identifier for at least one logical channel of the multiplexed logical channels and length of at least one logical channel service data unit is configured to be omitted from the medium access control protocol data unit.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to mechanism for interactions for entering into the sleep mode. According to embodiments of the present disclosure, the network device transmits the information of go-to-sleep, GTS, to the terminal device on a lower layer (for example, the physical layer). The lower protocol layer informs the higher protocol layer (for example, the MAC layer) of the information of GTS. The terminal device determines how to monitor the physical downlink channel based on the information of GTS. Further, the terminal device may switch bandwidth part based on the information of GTS. In this way, the GTS is able to significantly save power.

    Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to UP transmission for a device in an inactive state. The first device in an inactive state performs a small data transmission procedure between the first device and a second device and transmits an indication to the second device. The indication indicates the following a presence of non-small data transmission data to be transmitted by the first device and information associated with the data. Through this solution, the second device may make a proper and reasonable determination about whether to resume a radio resource control connection with the terminal device and whether to stop the ongoing small data transmission procedure.

    Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from improved random access operations. For example, certain embodiments may benefit from improved random access in which multiple bandwidth parts are configured to a user equipment within one cell. A method, in certain embodiments, may include triggering a random access procedure at a user equipment. The method may also include switching at the user equipment from a first uplink bandwidth part that does not support a random access channel to a second uplink bandwidth part that has the random access channel configured after the triggering of the random access procedure. The switching may be autonomously performed by the user equipment. In addition, the method may include performing the random access procedure at the user equipment using the random access channel configured at the second uplink bandwidth part.
