Abstract: This application provides a random access method and apparatus. The method may include determining, by a terminal, a service attribute of to-be-transmitted data, where the service attribute includes one or more of the following: a service type attribute, a service packet attribute, and a service latency attribute. The method may also include sending, by the terminal when the service attribute meets a preset condition for early data transmission, a random access request to a network device using a dedicated resource for the early data transmission. In this way, the early data transmission is initiated after the service attribute meets the preset condition for the early data transmission, so that a quantity of times for which the early data transmission is initiated is reduced, thereby saving resources. In addition, a success rate of the early data transmission can be improved.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may communicate with a base station on multiple component carriers (CCs) in a carrier aggregation (CA) configuration. The base station may transmit an indication to the UE that identifies a new power mode (e.g., a power mode adjustment) that the UE is to implement. The power mode may identify communication parameters that the UE is to adjust. The UE may determine a delay for applying the new power mode on the CCs. The delay may provide the UE time to activate or deactivate components or elements based on the new power mode. In some examples, the UE may determine the delay based on one or more selected CCs and then apply the delay across the CCs. The UE may implement the power mode on one or more (or all) of the CCs following the delay.
