    Abstract: The present invention relates to performing mobile network configurations or changes. The invention presents a first device for performing the mobile network configuration or change, and a second device for generating feedback for supporting the mobile network configuration or change. The first device is configured to send a support request to the second device, wherein the support request specifies a reusable or specific feedback type and a target information. The second device is configured to send reusable or specific feedback about the target information in response to the support request. The first device is then configured to determine a configuration or change of the mobile network based on the reusable or specific feedback. The reusable feedback includes a value or set of values of the target information and at least one coordination parameter indicating how the reusable feedback is to be used by multiple second devices.

    Abstract: A method for load balancing in an Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) system having an overloaded serving cell of a first base station includes: determining, by at least the first base station, radio-resource-usage efficiency of each one of a subset of user equipments (UEs) in the overloaded serving cell; determining, by at least the first base station, from the subset of UEs a list of candidate UEs for handover from the overloaded serving cell to a non-overloaded neighboring cell, based on one of i) per-UE average physical resource block (PRB) usage over a specified time period, or ii) per-UE average of measurements involving modulation-and-coding-scheme over a specified time period; and handing over, by the first base station, at least a selected number of UEs from the list of candidate UEs to the non-overloaded neighboring cell to implement load balancing.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system includes obtaining a first type of conditional reconfiguration and a second type of conditional reconfiguration, identifying whether at least one condition associated with the first type of conditional reconfiguration and the second type of conditional reconfiguration is fulfilled, wherein in case that a condition for a primary cell (PCell) associated with the first type of conditional reconfiguration is fulfilled, the PCell associated with the first type of conditional reconfiguration is identified as a triggered cell, and in case that conditions for a PCell and a primary secondary cell group cell (PSCell) associated with the second type of conditional reconfiguration are fulfilled, the PCell and the PSCell associated with the second type of conditional reconfiguration are identified as a pair of triggered cells, identifying whether one or more pairs of triggered cells exist, in case that the one or more pairs of triggered cells do not exist, identifying whether one or more triggered cells exist, and in case that the one or more triggered cells exist, applying the first type of conditional reconfiguration.

    Abstract: Various communication systems may benefit from adaptive handling of communication loads. For example, certain wireless communication systems may benefit from a method and application programming interface between a radio access network and a controller to optimize inter-frequency load balancing (IFLB). A method can include receiving policy inputs regarding how the IFLB should be operated. The method can also include negotiating a functional split of IFLB-related functions for the purposes of executing inter-frequency load-balancing. The method can further include receiving a set of data/attributes related to facilitate determination of optimal settings for IFLB.

    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a computerized network management framework that adaptively configures a network at a location to ensure connectivity and/or network services are maintained. The disclosed framework enables the implementation of multi-link operation (MLO) functionality within WiFi 7 enabled networks to implement non-disruptive channel availability check (CAC) capabilities. The framework can utilize MLO backup/redundant links that can mitigate network disruptions in service/connectivity for client devices that are WiFi 7 capable and utilize MLO functionality by diverting network traffic to an activated MLO link while an available channel/radio (e.g., 5 GHz) is used to perform the CAC operations.

A first node which is a CU in a first IAB donor node, receives a first message from a second node which is a CU in a second IAB donor node, where the first message indicates to reconfigure a resource that is in a first topology and that is used to serve first traffic, the first topology is a topology controlled by a first node, and the first traffic is traffic of a third node or traffic of a downstream node of the third node; and reconfigures, based on the first message, the resource that is in the first topology and that is used to serve the first traffic. There is an RRC connection between the third node and each of the first node and the second node, there is an F1 connection between the third node and the second node.
