    摘要: Disclosed solutions for edge processing for a mobile device, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) having a first and second cellular modems, include: determining that loss of a first connection between the first cellular modem and a first cell of a cellular network is imminent (e.g., within 500 milliseconds); determining that the mobile device is in range to connect to a second cell; based on at least determining that the mobile device is in range to connect to the second cell and that the loss of the first connection is imminent, initiating a second connection between the second cellular modem of the mobile device and the second cell; and based on at least determining that the second connection is complete, terminating the first connection. This permits use of the cellular connections for command and control of a UAV with minimal risk of disruption during handovers.

    摘要: A method is disclosed for improved tracking area planning and handling, comprising: assigning a single tracking area code to a plurality of eNodeBs at a messaging concentrator gateway, the messaging concentrator gateway situated in a network between the plurality of eNodeBs and the core network; storing, at the messaging concentrator gateway, at least one indicator of a last known location of a user equipment (UE) other than the single tracking area code; receiving a paging message from the core network at the messaging concentrator gateway for a UE; and performing a paging sequence using the at least one indicator to identify a set of eNodeBs to page the UE, thereby allowing larger tracking area list sizes to be used without increasing signaling traffic between the radio access network and the core network.

    摘要: Methods and systems are described for generating and utilizing a pattern of association. The pattern of association can comprise information that indicates to which of a plurality of network devices one or more mobile devices are likely to connect. The pattern of association can comprise information that indicates an order of association. The pattern of association can be associated with one or more factors which can be any information that provides insight into the pattern of association. The pattern of association can be used to identify a next network device that a mobile device will transition to, based on which network device the mobile device is currently connected to. Data, such as authentication information, can be pushed to the identified next network device to reduce network connectivity issues that may occur by transitioning between network devices.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to the field of wireless communication technology, and in particular, to a handover control method and device. The existing handover mechanism may cause the problem that too frequent handover measurement of a terminal increases the energy consumption of the terminal, negatively impacting the power saving of the terminal. A source satellite base station of the embodiments of the present disclosure receives auxiliary information reported by a terminal, determines at least one candidate satellite base station according to satellite base station orbital map information of the current region and the auxiliary information, and returns a handover command to the terminal according to the at least one candidate satellite base station, so that the terminal determines, according to the handover command, a target satellite base station to which the terminal is to be handed over, and is handed over from the source satellite base station to the target satellite base station. As the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a handover procedure for source satellite base station decision triggering, a terminal does not need to frequently measure the current serving base station and an adjacent base station, thereby simplifying the handover procedure and reducing the energy consumption of the terminal.

    摘要: The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A base station and a method for supporting self-configuration and self-optimization are provided. The method includes sending, by a main node (MN), a secondary node (SN) addition request message to a target candidate SN, receiving, by the MN, an addition request acknowledgment message from the target candidate SN, sending, by the MN, a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration message to a user equipment (UE), receiving, by the MN, an RRC reconfiguration complete message from the UE, which is an RRC reconfiguration complete message sent by the UE after accessing a candidate secondary cell group primary cell (PS Cell), sending, by the MN, an SN release request message to a source SN, receiving, by the MN, an SN release request acknowledgment message from the source SN, wherein the release request acknowledgment message includes secondary cell group (SCG) UE history information, updating, by the MN, saved UE history information, sending, by the MN, UE history information to a target SN.
