    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for using an unlicensed radio frequency band component carrier for uplink transmission are disclosed. A wireless communication device receives a carrier aggregation configuration, which can include at least one licensed radio frequency band component carrier and at least one unlicensed radio frequency band component carrier. The wireless communication device establishes a set of radio bearers and associates an unlicensed radio frequency band permission level with each of the radio bearers. The wireless communication device multiplexes uplink traffic for the radio bearers on the at least one licensed radio frequency band component carrier and the at least one unlicensed radio frequency band component carrier based at least in part on the unlicensed radio frequency band permission levels associated with the radio bearers.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for establishing radio resource control connections between wireless devices and cellular networks. According to some embodiments, a wireless device and a cellular base station may establish a radio resource control (RRC) connection. The wireless device may indicate to the cellular base station to store access stratum context information associated with the wireless device after the RRC connection is released. The wireless device may also store access stratum context information associated with the cellular base station. The stored access stratum context information may be used in conjunction with a subsequent RRC connection establishment procedure between the wireless device and the cellular base station.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates to operation and management of cellular communication systems including cells and access points operating in unlicensed frequency bands. According to some embodiments, a base station in a network may receive operation and management policy information, including information for configuring network elements operating in unlicensed frequency bands. The policy information may include information for coordinating network elements operating in unlicensed frequency bands in a manner configured to reduce interference in the unlicensed frequency bands. The base station may provide configuration information to one or more network elements in the network operating in unlicensed frequency bands. The configured network elements may operate in the unlicensed frequency bands in accordance with the configuration information.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for revocation and/or modification of user consent in Edge Computing (MEC). A user equipment device (UE) may determine that user consent needs to be updated. The user consent may be associated with MEC. Additionally, the UE may transmit, via an application layer of the UE, a user consent modification request to an edge application server of a network, e.g., of an edge data network. The user consent modification request may be carried in application data traffic. The user consent modification request may be indicated via an Nnef_ParameterProvision_Update service operation. The user consent modification request is indicated via an Nnef_ParameterProvision_Update service operation.

    Abstract: A device, system, and method performs a Voice over Long Term Evolution (LTE) (VoLTE) call setup procedure. The device includes a transceiver establishing a connection with a LTE network and an Internet Protocol (IP) Multimedia Subsystem (IMS). The device includes a processor executing a VoLTE call application with a further user equipment, receiving an input to execute the VoLTE call application, and generating a data packet including an indication to trigger a dedicated bearer establishment procedure. The transceiver transmits the data packet to one of the LTE network and the IMS. The indication triggers the dedicated bearer establishment procedure to be performed during a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) signal exchange procedure.
