Abstract: There are provided measures for enabling/realizing energy saving in a service-based access network such as a service-based radio access network, particularly energy saving at a specified granularity in a service-based access network such as a service-based radio access network. Such measures exemplarily comprise that a node or element in the service-based access network captures an energy saving request or command of an energy saving service in the service-based access network, wherein the energy saving request or command enables that the specified granularity can be deduced, and is configured to request or command initiation of an energy saving mode, notifies one or more service consumer entities of initiation of the requested or commanded energy saving mode, and initiates the requested or commanded energy saving mode.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for enabling user equipment (UE) context retrieval in radio resource control RRC inactive status with a shared radio access network (RAN) database (DB) within a distributed database architecture. A version indicator in an inactive Radio Network Temporary Identifier (I-RNTI) is populated by the UE to indicate one or more I-RNTI versions, defined herein, and indicates the type of data in the remainder of the I-RNTI used for communicating the location of a RAN DB that stores the UE context, to a target network node. The target network node then uses the data in the I-RNTI, further dependent on the I-RNTI version, to retrieve the UE content from the RAN database. Certain embodiments utilize a RAN DB Area (RDBA) and/or RAN DB Set Area (RDSA), and certain embodiments utilize a network node set ID.
