摘要： An access node of a radio access network (RAN) that communicates over a radio interface with a wireless terminal. The access node comprises processor circuitry, transmitting circuitry, and receiving circuitry. The processor circuitry is configured to generate an indication of access node capability to support the wireless terminal when the wireless terminal operates in a restricted mode. The transmitting circuitry is configured to transmit the indication to the wireless terminal. The receiving circuitry is configured to receive an indication from the wireless terminal that the wireless terminal is in the restricted mode. The processor circuitry is further configured to make a determination, upon receipt of the indication from the wireless terminal, that a connection with the wireless terminal can be maintained in the restricted mode and to generate a responsive message based on the determination.

摘要： A wireless terminal participates in communications over a radio interface with an access node of a radio access network (RAN). The wireless terminal comprises processor circuitry configured to detect an abnormal operation of the wireless terminal and to autonomously declare a Safe-Mode without permission of the radio access network. In an example implementation, the processor circuitry is further configured to generate a safe mode indication configured to indicate to the access node that one or more capabilities supported by the wireless terminal is temporarily not available at the wireless terminal; and wherein the wireless terminal further comprises transmitter circuitry configured to transmit the safe mode indication over the radio interface to the access node.

摘要： A 5G new radio (NR) Base Station (gNB) is described. The gNB includes a processor and memory in electronic communication with the processor. Instructions stored in the memory are executable to receive one or more indications for data availability generated by an ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC)-based logical channel group (LCG) in a 5G NR buffer status report (BSR), a specific numerology-based LCG in a 5G NR BSR, or a URLLC operating in a specific numerology using a 5G NR BSR.

摘要： A 5G new radio (NR) user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes a processor and memory in electronic communication with the processor. Instructions stored in the memory are executable to send explicit priority indications for each logical channel group (LCG) being reported in a buffer status report (BSR) to a base station (gNB). An LCG priority is based on a highest priority of logical channels (LCHs) within the LCG.

摘要： A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes receiving circuitry configured to receive, from a base station apparatus, a radio resource control (RRC) message(s) comprising one or more scheduling request (SR) configurations. Each SR configuration is associated with one or more PUCCH resources. The SR configuration is corresponding to any one or more of the following: one or more logical channels (LCH), one or more logical channel groups (LCG), one or more priority, one or more numerology, one or more services, and/or one or more bandwidth part (BWP).

摘要： A 5G new radio (NR) user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes a processor and memory in electronic communication with the processor. Instructions stored in the memory are executable to perform a UE-initiated handoff (HO) procedure after enablement from a base station (gNB). The UE-initiated HO procedure may include a PUSH mechanism in handoff. Alternatively, the UE-initiated handoff procedure comprises a PULL mechanism in handoff.

摘要： A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes receiving circuitry configured to receive, from a base station apparatus, a radio resource control (RRC) message(s) comprising one or more scheduling request (SR) configurations. The receiving circuitry is also configured to receive, from the base station apparatus, a RRC message(s) comprising a priority of a logical channel(s). Each SR configuration is associated with one or more PUCCH resources. The SR configuration is corresponding to one or more logical channels (LCH). A corresponding SR configuration for a triggered SR is determined based on the priority of the logical channel(s).

摘要： A user equipment (UE) is described. The UE includes a processor and memory in electronic communication with the processor. Instructions stored in the memory are executable to receive system information comprising information elements (IEs) of a list and/or instances for allowed/supported numerologies (sub-carrier spacing) in a cell for uplink (UL) frequencies and downlink (DL) frequencies. The IEs are received over dedicated RRC signaling and/or broadcast signaling. The instructions are also executable to configure or reconfigure the UE to send and receive packets using the allowed/supported numerologies (sub-carrier spacing).
