Abstract: A UE (10) provides information on potential S?eNB(s). The information is forwarded from an MeNB (20_1) to an M?eNB (20_2) such that the M?eNB (20_2) can determine, before the handover happens, whether the M?eNB (20_2) will configure a new SeNB (S?eNB) and which S?eNB the M?eNB (20_2) will configure. In one of options, the MeNB (20_1) derives a key S?-KeNB for communication protection between the UE (10) and the S?eNB (30_1), and send the S?-KeNB to the M?eNB (20_2). In another option, the M?eNB (20_2) derives the S?-KeNB from a key KeNB* received from the MeNB (20_1). The M?eNB (20_2) sends the S?-KeNB to the S?eNB (30_1). Moreover, there are also provided several variations to perform SeNB Release, SeNB Addition, Bearer Modification and the like, in which the order and/or timing thereof can be different during the handover procedure.

The control device may be configured to initiate an attachment procedure with a router device on a network at the end a back-off period of time. The attachment procedure may include transmitting attachment messages (e.g., parent request messages) that enable the control device to transmit and receive messages over the network through the router device. During the back-off period of time, the control device may determine an attachment message is received from another control device on the network. And, if an attachment message (e.g., a parent request messages and/or a link request message) is received from another control device, the control device may increase the back-off period of time (e.g., delaying when the control device initiates its attachment procedure).

The control plane includes a central controller and a plurality of local controllers. The data plane includes a plurality of LEO satellite nodes and user terminals connecting to the LEO satellite nodes.

Abstract: A system and method for data coding and transmission for improving a retry mechanism are disclosed. A system and method allow the receiver to perform decoding based on increased data bits rather than by repeatedly processing the same retransmitted information, thereby reducing the number of retries and improving the performance of a communication system. Also, with the reduced number of retries, the computing costs of the electronic devices used in the communication systems are reduced. When mobile devices are often used in wireless communication, this is particularly advantageous since the battery life of these devices is significantly improved. Moreover, the system and method provide incremental data transmission and therefore optimize the utilization of channel bandwidth.
