Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques for managing radio link failure recovery for a user equipment (UE) connected to a WWAN and a WLAN. The techniques may include establishing communication with a first radio access technology (RAT) and a second RAT. At least one data flow may be transmitted over each of the first RAT and the second RAT. Determinations may be made as to whether to maintain the at least one data flow over the second RAT when a radio link failure (RLF) is detected at the UE and/or whether to resume the at least one data flow over the second RAT upon RLF recovery. The determinations may be made at the UE, at a network entity in communication with the UE, or some combination thereof.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A wireless device may establish a radio resource control (RRC) connection over a wireless local area network (WLAN) link. For example, the wireless device may transmit a packet to an access point or WLAN termination that includes an RRC container including an RRC message for establishing (e.g., setting up, resuming) a connection with a centralized unit (CU). In some examples, the wireless device may additionally or alternatively be configured with dual connectivity over a WLAN link, including the addition, modification, and release of nodes associated with different radio access technologies. In such cases, the CU may configure connectivity with the WLAN, where the CU may configure a port number for each radio bearer via an RRC message transmitted over a direct link with the wireless device (e.g., via a distributed unit) or via the WLAN link.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for managing cross-node artificial intelligence (AI) and/or machine learning (ML) operations in a radio access network (RAN). An example method of wireless communication by a first network entity includes obtaining machine learning input data associated with a user equipment (UE); providing, to a second network entity, an indication of machine learning output data generated using the machine learning input data; and providing, to the second network entity, control signaling for a cross-node machine learning session between the UE and the first network entity based at least in part on one or more performance indicators associated with the cross-node machine learning session.
Abstract:
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may select a user plane for a service. The UE may transmit a request for a service over the user plane. Numerous other aspects are described.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) and/or a master node may use configurations to resume communications with one or more cells of a dual connectivity (DC) or carrier aggregation (CA) scheme. In some cases, the configuration may be used for a secondary cell group (SCG) of the DC scheme. This configuration may include the UE applying a previously stored configuration for the SCG (e.g., including higher-layer and lower-layer configurations of a last serving SN of the DC scheme) if it determines the previously stored configuration is valid. Additionally or alternatively, the configuration may include the network using a previous SCG configuration or reconfiguring the SCG and transmitting this indication in a resume communications message to the UE. In some cases, the network may determine this configuration based on assistance information or reports generated from the UE.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. An access and mobility management function (AMF) may register a configuration of one or more RAN entities to a network repository function (NRF). The AMF may register information associated with a device with a UDM. A network data analytics function (NWDAF) may perform RAN discovery via the NRF, the UDM, or both. The NWDAF may receive an analytics request from a device, and the NWDAF may query the NRF, the UDM, or both for information about one or more targets of the analytics request, and the NWDAF may receive such information from the NRF, the UDM, or both. The NWDAF may transmit a data collection request to the RAN and the NWDAF may receive data back from the RAN.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A plurality of public land mobile networks (PLMNs) across the plurality of different mobile network operators (MNOs) may participate in a shared operator service offering for facilitating provision of intelligent services in ambient computing environments. A first network entity, such as a reader device, may receive from an energy harvesting (EH)-capable device in an ambient computing environment a back-scattered signal that includes identification information associated with the EH-capable device. In some cases, the first network entity and the EH-capable device may be associated with different PLMNs or different MNOs. Based on configuration information indicating a type of enrichment information to collect, the first network device may obtain enrichment information associated with the EH-capable device and may cause the identification information and the enrichment information to be transmitted to a second network entity.
Abstract:
Aspects presented herein may enable a network entity (e.g., a consumer network entity) to request data and/or analytics (e.g., AI/ML analytics, AI/ML inference, etc.) from another network entity (e.g., a RAN) via a core network or a function associated with the network (e.g., an NWDAF of the core network). In one aspect, a core network entity receives, from a first network entity, an analytics request. The core network entity transmits, to a second network entity, a data collection request based at least in part on the analytics request. The core network entity receives, from the second network entity, a data collection response based on the data collection request. The core network entity transmits, to the first network entity, an analytics response based at least in part on the data collection response.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for controlling access and use of network resources and services by user equipment based on user equipment capabilities. In one aspect, a method for wireless communication by a network entity, includes: receiving, from a user equipment, a request to connect to a network, the request comprising a user equipment identifier and a reduced capability indication; determining a validity of the reduced capability indication based on at least one of: subscription data associated with the user equipment; or one or more capabilities associated with the user equipment; and making a connection decision based on the validity of the reduced capability indication.
Abstract:
Apparatus, methods, and computer program products for disaggregated UE are provided. An example method includes establishing a connection session with the second UE. The example method further includes transmitting a request for establishing a direct radio resource control (RRC) connection with the radio access network via the connection session. The example method further includes configuring a radio bearer of the second UE.
