    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method of transmitting system information on a downlink shared channel structured as successive subframes includes transmitting system information in regularly occurring time windows, each time window spanning some number of successive subframes. The method further includes indicating to receiving user equipment which subframes within a given time window carry system information. The method and variations of it are applied, for example, to the transmission of dynamic system information on the downlink shared channel or other downlink channel in a 3GPP E-UTRA wireless communication network.

    Abstract: There is disclosed a method of operating an Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB) node (200, C, N3) in a wireless communication network, the IAB node being in a communication link with a second IAB node using a signaling beam, the IAB node further being scheduled to perform beam sweeping with a plurality of synchronisation beams, one of the synchronisation beams corresponding to the signaling beam; wherein a synchronisation beam is scheduled to carry synchronisation signaling; and wherein the method comprises performing beam sweeping such that the synchronisation beam corresponding to the signaling beam carries information signaling replacing the synchronisation signaling at least in part. The disclosure also pertains to related methods and devices.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for positioning in a cellular communications system are disclosed. A method performed by a first base station (BS) includes receiving a signal transmitted by a second BS and estimating a Time of Arrival (TOA) of the received signal at the first BS according to a clock of the first BS. The method further includes determining a delta value that is or is a function of a time between the TOA of the received signal at the first BS according to the clock and a time reference at the first BS and either (a) providing the delta value to a positioning estimation entity within the communications system or (b) using the delta value at the first BS to reduce a time synchronization error between the first BS and the second BS, or (c) passing the delta value to a User Equipment.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatus for scatterer localization and material identification. The method performed by an identification apparatus may comprise: determining (S101) a reflection loss of a power of a wireless signal caused by a reflection at an object, for the purpose of identifying a material of the object and localizing a position of the object. The method performed by a reception apparatus may comprise: receiving (S201) a wireless signal transmitted from a transmission apparatus and reflected by an object; and transmitting (S202), to an identification apparatus, information about the wireless signal. The method performed by a transmission apparatus may comprise: receiving (S301) an indication for identifying a material of an object; and transmitting (S302) a wireless signal reflected by the object to a reception apparatus.
