    Abstract: This document discloses a solution for selecting a frequency channel for a service. According to an aspect, a method comprises: receiving, by a first access node of a first wireless network, a scanning message comprising at least one information element indicating a channel access limit for a frequency channel operated by a second access node of a second wireless network; selecting, by the first access node on the basis of the at least one information element, the frequency channel or another frequency channel for an ultra-reliable low-latency (URLLC) service provided by the apparatus; and upon selecting the frequency channel for the URLLC service, causing by the first access node transmission of frames of the service within channel access limits indicated by the at least one information element.

    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for facilitating efficient patient identification in conjunction with an emergency call. In regards to a method, an emergency call from an intermediary device is received, and a search for one or more potential patient devices in proximity to an intermediary device is initialized. The method also includes receiving a unique identifier associated with a patient device from among the one or more potential patient devices. Further, the method retrieves medical information or medical record for a patient associated with the unique identifier. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided. Either Bluetooth Low Energy or WI-FI Aware are used. The mobility status comprising acceleration information of each patient device is transmitted.

    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media of dynamic reservation of links for supporting low latency in unlicensed spectrum for improved system performance. The method comprises determining a probability associated with one or more available links of the first device; transmitting the probability to a second device; and receiving an indication of the number of links that need to be left free for a communication within a cluster at which the first device is located. In this way, a certain probability of successful listen-before-talk (LBT) can be guaranteed for the time-sensitive/URLLC traffic. A minimum number of links that should be left can be configured as always free for allowing time-sensitive/low latency packets to find a transmission opportunity over these links with a certain probability and be transmitted immediately, therefore the probability of successful LBT can be effectively manipulated, which may addresses private industrial deployments.

    Abstract: An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code; the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to perform: receiving control information including a slot format indicator configured to indicate scheduled channel usage for time units, wherein the slot format indicator includes at least one indicator configured to indicate that simultaneous uplink and downlink communications are scheduled to occur on a shared channel in at least one of the time units; and determining a type of channel sensing to use prior to initiating an uplink transmission on at least a portion of the shared channel based, at least in part, on the control information, wherein determining a type of channel sensing to use comprises analysing the scheduled channel usage for, at least, the time unit in which the uplink transmission is scheduled to be initiated and the time unit before the time unit in which the uplink transmission is scheduled to be initiated.
