    Abstract: Embodiments of this application provide a random access response method and an apparatus. The method includes: RARs associated with one RO are transmitted based on groups, so that a transport block size of RAR data transmitted each time is reduced, and N bits in DCI format 1_0 of CRC are scrambled by using a RA-RNTI to indicate scheduling information of N RAR groups in a PDSCH. Alternatively, DCI format 1_0 of CRC is scrambled by using identifiers of RAR groups, to correspondingly schedule the RAR groups in the PDSCH. According to this application, a problem of a large transport block caused by a large quantity of RARs being transmitted in a PDSCH can be avoided, so that a modulation order or a bit rate is reduced, and demodulation performance of a terminal device is improved.

  • Patent number: 12382514
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to channel conflict processing methods and apparatus. In one example method, when a terminal device establishes a connection relationship with a source cell, and sends a connection request to or establishes a connection relationship with a target cell, the terminal device detects whether an uplink channel conflict occurs on an uplink channel of the source cell and an uplink channel of the target cell, where the source cell and the target cell are infra-frequency or intra-band contiguous inter-frequency. If the terminal device determines that an uplink channel conflict occurs, the terminal device sends a signal on an uplink channel with a higher priority between the uplink channel of the source cell and the uplink channel of the target cell.

  • Patent number: 12382528
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to radio resource control (RRC) reestablishment methods and apparatuses. In one example method, a terminal device selects a target cell, where the target cell supports an expected network slice. The terminal device sends an RRC reestablishment request message by using the target cell. The expected network slice may include a network slice that the terminal device expects to access, or a network slice corresponding to a PDU session established by the terminal device by using a last serving access network device of the terminal device. The terminal device may select the target cell within a preset time period. For example, the terminal device starts a first timer when the terminal device starts selecting the target cell, and selects the target cell during running of the first timer. The first timer may be specific to one or more network slices or all network slices.

  • Patent number: 12382545
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for reliable multicast transmission with compact protocol stack. In one novel aspect, compact protocol stacks are configured for the UE and the base station handling both the PTM RB and the PTP RB. The compact protocol stack is either configured a compact RLC entity or a compact PDCP entity. The UE monitors a PTM LCH and a PTP LCH and sends feedback to the network with the PTP RB. The base station transmits MBS data packets in the PTM mode to the one or more subscriber UE, monitors feedback report from each subscriber UEs through corresponding PTP RB, and retransmits MBS data packets to one or more UEs through corresponding PTP RBs based on corresponding feedback reports. PTM-to-PTP and PTP-to-PTM mode switches are performed when triggering events are detected. The mode switch notification is sent to UEs via MAC CE or RLC control PDU.
