Abstract: A DU and/or a CU of a distributed base station implement the techniques of this disclosure to support early data transmission from a UE operating in an inactive or idle state. In some embodiments, the DU receives (304) a MAC PDU from the UE when the radio connection between the UE and the DU is not active (302). The DU provides (308) the data packet included in the MAC PDU to the CU while preventing (306) the CU from initiating a procedure for resuming the radio connection. In this manner, the base station avoids an unnecessary transition of the UE to the connected state. The CU may then proceed with releasing (312) radio resources or otherwise determining to reactivate the radio connection.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods of processing a semiconductor substrate in a processing chamber, such as a chemical vapor deposition chamber. The chemical vapor deposition chamber includes a spindle mechanism that cooperates with one or more carrier ring forks to move the semiconductor substrate from one station to another station.
