    摘要: Performing restricted based handover. In one aspect, there is a method performed by a user equipment (UE) served by a serving network node. The method comprises determining that a handover condition exists, wherein the handover condition is a handover triggering condition or a handover inhibiting condition. The method further comprises as a result of determining that the handover triggering condition exists, triggering a handover of the UE from the serving network node to a target network node, or as a result of determining that the handover inhibiting condition exists, inhibiting a handover of the UE from the serving network node to the target network node. Determining that the handover condition exists comprises: determining that a power restriction exists i) for an UL channel between the UE and the serving network node or ii) for an UL channel between the UE and the target network node.

    摘要: Embodiments includes methods performed by a user equipment, LT, to schedule a plurality of mutually-exclusive repetitive measurement activities in a wireless network. Such embodiments include receiving, from a network node serving the UE, a measurement configuration comprising: least one measurement timing configuration for each of a plurality of mutually exclusive repetitive measurement activities; and identification of a measurement gap pattern for performing the measurement activities. Such embodiments also include selecting an analysis period for a measurement schedule, and determining, over the analysis period, measurement load information related to the measurement configuration. Such embodiments also include determining, based on the measurement load information, a measurement time scaling factor and a scaled measurement time for each measurement activity. Some embodiments include determining a measurement schedule and/or performing measurements based on the scaled measurement time. Embodiments also include methods performed by network nodes, and UEs and network nodes configured to perform such methods.

    摘要: This disclosure describes a request distribution system that can intelligently distribute transportation requests to provider devices to improve transportation system network coverage and efficiency. For example, the disclosed systems can identify a transportation request corresponding to a first transportation mode and analyze multiple limited-eligibility provider devices having various modes as potential recipients for the transportation request. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems can further determine an expected change in network coverage time associated with providing the transportation request to a first provider device corresponding to the first transportation mode versus a second provider device corresponding to a second transportation mode. The disclosed systems can provide the transportation request to the second provider device corresponding to the second transportation mode according to the expected change in network coverage time and/or other transportation request metrics.

    摘要: A method for providing for network function (NF) fallback to a recovered network function NF repository function (NRF) includes, at an NF including at least one processor, generating an NF register message including an indication to notify the NF of recovery of a first NRF after a failure of the first
    NRF. The method further includes transmitting the NF register message to the first NRF. The method further includes communicating with the first NRF and detecting failure of the first NRF. The method further includes, in response to detecting failure of the first NRF, initiating communications with a second NRF that is a geo-redundant mate of the first NRF. The method further includes receiving notification of recovery of the first NRF and falling back to communicating with the first NRF.

    摘要: A process for changing networks for a plurality of wireless devices includes storing in a database current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices and storing in the database charge rates for the current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices. The process further includes analyzing with the processor the current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices and the charge rates for the current wireless network distribution information for the plurality of wireless devices to determine a change in distribution of wireless networks for one or more of the plurality of wireless devices and sending with the processor a command to modify wireless network settings for the one or more of the plurality of wireless devices. A system is disclosed as well.

    摘要: Embodiments of this application provide a communication method and a device. The communication method and the device may be used in the field of a communication technology that supports a reduced capability terminal device, for example, weak-capability UE or MTC UE. The method includes: A first network device determines that a type of a first terminal device is a first type. The first network device sends a handover request message. The handover request message includes first indication information. The first indication information includes identifier information of the first type. The first network device receives a handover acknowledgment message or a handover preparation failure message.
