Abstract: In some implementations, a network node may transmit, to a user equipment (UE), a configuration that indicates a default time periodicity value for a scheduling request (SR) occasion. The network node may identify a service provided by the network node. The network node may transmit, to the UE, a reconfiguration message that indicates a modified time periodicity value for the SR occasion, the modified time periodicity value being different than the default time periodicity value based on the service provided by the network node. The network node may receive, from the UE, an SR based on the modified time periodicity value for the SR occasion.

Abstract: An improved discontinuous reception (DRX) mechanism is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising receiving a request to attach to a cellular network from user equipment (UE). The method then identifies a group identifier associated with the UE and determines a DRX parameter based on the group identifier. Finally, the method transmits the DRX parameter to the UE.

Abstract: A base station device dynamically adjusts the configuration of a special slot when operating in a time division duplexing (TDD) mode. The base station can initially communicate with a user equipment (UE) using a first frequency in a time division duplexing (TDD) mode. Using, for example, a timing advance procedure, the base station can determine when the UE requires an expanded cell range (e.g., if the UE is at the cell range edge). In response, the base station adjusts a configuration of a special slot for the UE. The adjustment to the special slot can comprise an addition of a gap symbol, a prioritizing of uplink transmissions over downlink transmissions, or a reserving of one or more downlink symbols during scheduling.

Abstract: In some implementations, a distributed unit (DU) associated with a network node may determine a rate variation associated with one or more of a quality of service (QOS) flow or a network slice. The DU may perform a scheduling for a user equipment (UE) based on the rate variation, wherein the scheduling is associated with an adjusted data rate based on the rate variation.

Abstract: In some implementations, a radio access network (RAN) device may determine service information associated with a user equipment (UE). The service information may be associated with a service to be received by the UE. The RAN device may select a measurement gap configuration based on the service information associated with the UE. The RAN device may transmit the measurement gap configuration for reception by the UE.

Abstract: A network device of a core network may maintain a mapping table that maps core network slices with quality of service (QoS) class identifiers (QCIs) based on service profile identifiers (SPIDs), and may receive, from a user device, a request for service with a particular QCI included in the QCIs of the mapping table. The network device may identify a particular SPID of the SPIDs in the mapping table based on the particular QCI of the service, and may generate a flow request based on the particular SPID. The network device may cause the flow request to be provided to a radio access network (RAN) associated with the user device, to cause the RAN to select a RAN slice for provision of the service to the user device.

Abstract: A base station may define power saving profiles, and may define, for the power saving profiles, sets of features and parameter settings for each feature of the sets of features. The base station may store the power saving profiles, the sets of features, and the parameter settings in a data structure, and may receive, from a user equipment, data identifying a service utilized by the user equipment or an operation mode of the user equipment. The base station may retrieve, from the data structure, a single power saving profile based on the data identifying the service utilized by the user equipment or the operation mode of the user equipment, and may enable, for the user equipment, a corresponding set of features and corresponding parameter settings of the single power saving profile based on the single power saving profile being retrieved from the data structure.

Abstract: In some implementations, a network node may collect performance measurements associated with a communication link between a network node and a user equipment, the performance measurements including at least one of: a total number of packets associated with each hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) retransmission group, of multiple HARQ retransmission groups associated with the communication link, or a total data volume associated with each HARQ retransmission group, of the multiple HARQ retransmission groups associated with the communication link. The network node may estimate a packet delay associated with the communication link based on the performance measurements.

Abstract: In some implementations, a radio access network (RAN) may obtain data rate information from a server device. The server device may be associated with an application and the data rate information may be associated with the application. The RAN may determine, based on the data rate information, one or more data rate parameters associated with the application. The one or more data rate parameters may include at least one of one or more radio frequency parameters, one or more network loading parameters, one or more mobility parameters, or an available data rate parameter. The RAN may transmit, to the server device, the one or more data rate parameters.
