Abstract:
A method performed by a user equipment (UE) configured with an uplink and a sidelink. The method includes determining that a first set of data is to be transmitted in the uplink, assigning a priority value to the first set of data, determining that a second set of data is to be transmitted in the sidelink, assigning a priority value to the second set of data, determining that the first and second set of data are to be transmitted using a same resource at a same time, selecting one of the first set of data or the second set of data to be transmitted first based on at least the first priority value and the second priority value and when the first set of data that is to be transmitted in the uplink is selected, transmitting the first set of data prior to transmitting the second set of data.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) is configured to communicate with a further UE via a sidelink (SL). The UE encodes traffic for transmission to the further UE, wherein the traffic comprises a payload and a medium access control (MAC) subheader, wherein the MAC subheader indicates whether the payload corresponds to non-routed traffic between the UE and the further UE or routed traffic between either one of the UE or the further UE and a base station, wherein an other one of the UE or the further UE functions as a relay for the routed traffic and transmits the traffic.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for minimizing scheduling collisions between networks. In one embodiment, the networks are substantially unsynchronized, and during hybrid network operation (e.g., LTE and CDMA 1X operation), a mobile device can place CDMA 1X voice calls while registered with the LTE network. However, since the LTE and CDMA 1X networks are not coordinated, the mobile device will experience scheduling collisions. In one variant, the LTE network accounts for predictable behaviors (such as CDMA 1X paging), and schedules low priority tasks during likely time interval conflicts. Consequently, even though the mobile device must tune away from the LTE network to check CDMA 1X pages, overall LTE network performance is minimally affected.
Abstract:
A base station is configured to transmit wake-up signals to a user equipment to wake-up the UE to receive a page from the base station. The base station transmits one or more synchronization signals, wherein the synchronization signals correspond to a wake-up signal (WUS) that is to be transmitted to a user equipment (UE) operating in a paging discontinuous reception (DRX) cycle, wherein the paging DRX cycle includes a paging occasion (PO) and transmits the WUS to the UE during a WUS occasion, wherein the WUS indicates whether the UE is to utilize an active mode or a sleep mode during the PO.
Abstract:
The exemplary embodiments relate to a computer-readable storage medium, a device, an integrated circuit and a method that perform operations related to a first user equipment (UE) configured with a sidelink (SL) connection with a second UE. The operations include generating an SL counter check request including at least a first count for data transmissions from the first UE to the second UE as determined by the first UE. The operations further include transmitting the request to the second UE and receiving a counter check response to the request, the response comprising at least a second count for data transmissions from the first UE to the second UE as determined by the second UE. The operations further include determining a first difference between the first count and the second count and, when the first difference exceeds a threshold, releasing the SL connection with the second UE.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) may be barred from accessing one or more network slices. The UE collects information to perform an access barring procedure corresponding to a cell of a network, performs an accessing barring procedure using the information, performs a random access channel (RACH) procedure with the cell and establishes a radio resource control (RRC) connection with the cell.
Abstract:
A remote user equipment (UE) configured to access a network via one of a direct link with a base station or a relay link with a relay UE performs a method including receiving link selection criteria, the link selection criteria configured by the network, identifying that the relay UE is available for camping, selecting the relay UE based on the link selection criteria, camping on the relay link corresponding to the relay UE and initiating a network access procedure via the relay link.
Abstract:
A user equipment (UE) is configured with operations to determine whether a network supports non-voice IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) services. The UE determines whether a network with which the UE is communicating supports a non-voice IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) service and when the network supports the non-voice IMS service, initiates an IMS Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session establishment with the network.
Abstract:
A network component communicating with a user equipment (UE) and a server. The network component receives a first packet from the UE, wherein the first packet indicates to the network component that the network component is to perform operations on behalf of the UE to maintain a persistent connection, receives a second packet from the server and determines whether to transmit a signal to the UE based on the second packet received from the server. A UE having a transceiver and a processor. The UE transmits a first packet to the network component, wherein the first packet indicates to the network component that the network component is to perform operations on behalf of the UE to maintain a persistent connection, identifies an out of service (OOS) event, receives registration information from the network component and registers with the server based on the registration information received from the network component.
Abstract:
A base station may be configured to perform operations related to link management for a remote user equipment (UE). The operations comprising, transmitting configuration information to the remote UE and receiving information corresponding to a serving link associated with the remote UE. The operations further comprising determining that the serving link associated with the remote UE is to be switched from a first communication link to a second communication link. The operations further comprising, transmitting a message to the remote UE indicating that the serving link associated with the remote UE is to be switched from the first communication link to the second communication link. The operations further comprising, transmitting a message to a relay UE. The message is configured to trigger the relay UE to perform an operation corresponding to the serving link associated with the remote UE.
