    Abstract: Some techniques and apparatuses described herein provide an indication of a result of decoding a two-step random access channel (RACH) message and an action to be performed by a user equipment (UE). For example, some techniques and apparatuses described herein may provide the indication using a UE contention resolution identity-based approach, wherein the contention resolution identity of the UE may be provided in a random access response. Some techniques and apparatuses described herein may use a fallback indicator that indicates the result of decoding and/or the action to be performed. Some techniques and apparatuses described herein may use a random access response (RAR) subheader that selectively omits a random access preamble identifier based at least in part on the result of decoding and/or the action to be performed.

    Abstract: One aspect relates to initiating, by a device, a connection with an application server associated with one or more application services. A gateway derives an uplink network token and/or a downlink network token. The tokens are provisioned to the device and/or an application server over the user-plane. The tokens are included with uplink and/or downlink packets, respectively. Another aspect relates to receiving a data packet at a gateway. The gateway determines a requirement for a network token from the packet. The gateway derives the network token based on a device subscription profile maintained by a network. The network token may be sent with the packet to a destination address associated with the packet. A packet including a network token may be received at a gateway. The gateway may verify the network token and send the data packet to an application server or a device if the verifying is successful.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques performing measurement reporting. One aspect is a method for performing measurement reporting at a user equipment, including: receiving, from a master node, a message comprising a measurement configuration for a secondary node; entering an inactive state; performing measurements according to the measurement configuration for the secondary node immediately after entering the inactive state; generating a measurement report based on the measurements; transmitting, to the master node, an RRC resume request message; receiving, from the master node, an RRC resume message comprising a request for measurement reporting; and transmitting, to the master node, an RRC resume complete message comprising the measurement report; and receiving data from the secondary node.

    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to methods and apparatus for performing minimization of drive test (MDT) operations. For example, certain aspects provide a method for wireless communication. The method generally includes receiving, at a radio access network (RAN), a measurement configuration to start a trace of a user-equipment (UE), determining a transition of the UE to an inactive state, and sending one or more messages to coordinate the trace of the UE or indicate that the trace has failed in response to the determination.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A first base station may identify that the first base station is a secondary node for a user equipment (UE) operating in a dual connectivity deployment, where the UE is in a radio resource control (RRC) inactive state. The first base station may receive, from the UE, a request to resume communications with the first base station and a second base station that is a master node in the dual connectivity deployment. The first base station may verify the UE using an access stratum context associated with the UE, and resume communications with the UE based at least in part on the request and the access stratum context. The first base station may resume communications as a secondary node or as a master node. In some cases, the UE may resume communications without entering an RRC idle state.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a remote user equipment (UE) may establish, via a sidelink signaling interface, a unicast link between the remote UE and a relay UE; establish a connection with a base station via the relay UE, wherein a message associated with establishing the connection is communicated via the unicast link; establish one or more bearers based at least in part on a radio bearer configuration received from the base station via the connection; establish, with the relay UE, one or more sidelink access stratum entities for the one or more bearers using one or more sidelink radio resource control messages based at least in part on an access stratum configuration received from the base station via the connection; and receive or transmit control-plane or user-plane traffic via the one or more bearers.

    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a master node (MN) may receive information indicating one or more candidate target secondary nodes (SNs) for a multi radio access technology dual connectivity (MR-DC) handover of a user equipment (UE), wherein the information indicates that the one or more candidate target SNs are associated with direct forwarding paths with a source radio access network (RAN) node of the UE; select a target SN from the one or more candidate target SNs based at least in part on the received information; and perform the MR-DC handover of the UE, wherein the selected target SN is different than the source RAN node of the UE, and wherein a configuration of the MR-DC handover is based at least in part on a direct forwarding path between the selected target SN and the source RAN node.
