Abstract: Techniques described herein include solutions for wireless local area network (WLAN) cellular aggregation (WCA). A user equipment (UE) may be configured to communicate with one or more base stations using both a direct cellular link and a multi-hop WLAN link. The multi-hop WLAN link may utilize a WLAN terminal as a relay. The WLAN terminal may communicate with the UE via a WLAN connection, and communicate with a base station via a cellular connection. The WLAN terminal may utilize endpoint mapping information when forwarding packets from the base station to the UE in downlink (DL), or from the UE to the base station in uplink (UL). The endpoint mapping information may be configured before the WCA transmissions and stored in a memory of the WLAN terminal, or may be indicated dynamically in a packet header of each WCA transmission.

Abstract: Systems and methods for cross layer optimization for selection of a best or most preferred cell from conditional special cell (SpCell) change candidate cells are disclosed. The conditional SpCell change may be, for example, a conditional handover (CHO) or a conditional primary cell of a secondary cell group (PSCell) change (CPC). Conditions for a conditional SpCell change may be provided to a user equipment (UE). It may be that measurements on multiple cells meet the condition(s) for a conditional SpCell change by the UE. Preferences/criteria for selecting a cell from these multiple compliant candidate cells meeting the conditional SpCell change conditions are discussed herein. These criteria may include, but are not limited to, for example, a cell quality, an inter-versus intra-frequency handover, bandwidth, component carrier (CC) use, band, carrier type, needs/criticality of the application, congestion, frequency range, multiple subscriber identity module (MSIM) considerations, etc.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and processors are provided for supporting a distributed computing framework. In one example, a wireless communication device is configured to act as a distributed computing control node (ContN), the wireless communication device including a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to, when executing instructions stored in the memory, cause the device to receive respective registration messages from respective wireless communication devices. The registration messages include registration information indicating whether a respective wireless communication device acts as an offload node (OffN) for distributed computing or a compute node (CompN) for distributed computing. The processor is configured to store the registration information in a resource repository and, based on the registration information of the respective wireless communication devices, transmit a resource availability message indicating available distributed computing resources to wireless communication devices acting as OffNs.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for split-bearer enhancements during dual-connectivity operation, e.g., in 5G NR systems and beyond (e.g., NextG, 6G, and so forth). A base station may set up a split-bearer for a UE operating in dual-connectivity and connected to the base station and one or more corresponding base stations, including setting up a ratio of a split of data to be delivered to the UE via the base station and the one or more corresponding base stations. The base station may transmit, based on the ratio of the split, a first portion of the data destined for the UE to the UE and a second portion of the data destined for the UE to the one or more corresponding base stations. The base station may adjust, based on one or more split-bearer quality reports received from the UE, the ratio of the split.
