Abstract: It is disclosed a method for supporting a machine-to-machine communication over a mobile communication network. The communication involves machine-to-machine devices that connect to the mobile communication network through a gateway including a transceiver module to connect to the mobile communication network over a radio link. The method includes determining whether a radio carrier is present over the radio link, and in the absence of the radio carrier, switching off the transceiver module for a first time period. After the first time period elapsed, the transceiver module is switched on for a second time period. The method further includes, after the second time period elapsed, repeating steps above. The first time period and the second time period are determined on the basis of a number of parameters whose value depend on at least one set of values provided to the gateway by the mobile communication network.

Abstract: This application provides a random access method, a terminal, and a network device. The random access method includes: determining, by a terminal, whether a resource used for random access conflicts with a resource used for receiving a downlink signal; and if the resource used for the random access conflicts with the resource used for the downlink signal, preferentially using the conflicting random access resource for receiving the downlink signal but not for the random access.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a data exchange method, a terminal device, and a network device. In accordance with the disclosure, a terminal device can obtain resource information for communicating with another terminal device. The resource information can indicate a time-frequency resource and an antenna port corresponding to an antenna polarization direction. The terminal device can then send scheduling information and data information to the another terminal device using the time-frequency resource and the antenna polarization direction. Time-frequency resources and/or antenna polarization directions used by any two terminal devices to send scheduling information and data information to other terminal devices can be different. In this way, terminal devices using different transmit antenna ports can use a same time-frequency resource, and an optional dimension of resource information is increased, thereby increasing an overall system communication capacity.

Abstract: A mechanism for controlling configuration of dual connectivity for a UE that has a first connection with a first access node. The first access node could make a determination whether a beamwidth of a second access node with which the UE does not yet have a connection is at least as wide as a predefined threshold angle. If not, then the first access node could apply blind addition, in which the first access node works to add for the UE the second connection without requiring as a condition precedent the UE reporting being in threshold strong coverage of the second access node. Whereas, if so, then the first access node could instead apply threshold-based addition, in which the first access node works to add for the UE the second connection if and when the UE reports being in threshold strong coverage of the second access node.
