    摘要: According to some embodiments, a method is performed by a wireless device for adapting to intermittent network coverage in a non-terrestrial network (NTN). The method comprises: receiving information indicative of the availability of NTN network access; and determining whether the wireless device is within or outside of an area with NTN network access based in part on the received information and a location of the wireless device. Upon determining that the wireless device is outside the area with NTN network access, the wireless device operates in a reduced power mode in which one or more internal processes are suspended or disabled. Upon determining that the wireless device is within the area with NTN network access, the wireless device operates in a normal power mode in which one or more of the internal processes that were suspended or disabled are reactivated or enabled.

    摘要: According to an aspect, a source node determines (1002) that a UE served by the source node is a candidate for conditional handover configuration. The source node sends (1004), to a target node for conditional handover of the UE, a conditional handover request that includes one or more parameters indicative of a likelihood that handover of the UE to the target node will be executed. The target node receives (1102) the request and parameters and allocates (1104) resources for the UE, taking into account the likelihood that handover of the first UE to the target node will be executed. The target node sends (1106) handover configuration information for the first UE to the source node, in response to the conditional handover request.

    摘要: A radio network node, such as a gNodeB (gNB), a User Equipment (UE) and a method, for configuring the UE for camping on a cell in a radio network for Synchronization Signal (SS) Blocks based cell re-selection measurements for RRC_IDLE and RRC_INACTIVE states. The method includes providing information to the UE, including configuration parameters for a measurement window, the configuration parameters defining a window periodicity, offset and duration, for configuring the UE for the SS Blocks based cell re-selection measurements for RRC_IDLE and RRC_INACTIVE states. Radio Resource Control (RRC) signaling is used to convey the information to the UE prior to or in conjunction with switching the UE from RRC_CONNECTED state to RRC_INACTIVE or RRC_IDLE state, a RRCConnectionRelease message is used to convey the information to the UE and the information is also provided to the UE in system information (SI).

    摘要: A wireless device (12) configures an application layer (24) of the wireless device (12) with an application layer configuration (20-1) that governs performance of measurements at the application layer (24) and/or reporting of those measurements to a radio network layer (22) of the wireless device (12). After configuring the application layer (24) with the application layer configuration (20-1), the wireless device (12) receives at the radio network layer (22) a message (26) indicating a target configuration (16-2) with which the wireless device (12) is to be configured in association with a radio network layer procedure. Based on receiving the message (26), if each of one or more conditions are fulfilled, the wireless device (12) sends from the radio network layer (22) to the application layer (24) an instruction (30) on how the application layer (24) is to handle the application layer configuration (20-1).
