Abstract: A first device in a communication network receives from at least one second device in the communication network, a first request for acquiring a token, the token being permission for communicating with a third device. Based on the first request, a device from the at least one second device and the first device as a communication device is selected for providing a communication service to the third device in the communication network; and the token is transmitted to the communication device. The communication device receives the token for communicating with the third device. Other devices receive key information associated with communication of the third device from the first device, and monitor data associated with the communication of the third device.

Abstract: A core network can send first data transmissions to a radio access network (RAN) at a first data rate that is based at least in part on a first RAT policy associated with a first RAT used by the RAN for downlink transmissions to user equipment. The core network can obtain information indicating that the RAN is using a second RAT for the downlink transmissions to the user equipment. The core network can cause a RAT policy that is applied to the data transmissions from the core network to the RAN to be changed from the first RAT policy to a second RAT policy that is associated with the second RAT. The core network can send second data transmissions from the core network to the RAN at a second data rate that is based at least in part on the second RAT policy.

Abstract: In wireless communications for multi-users, a station may generate a first frame and transmit the first frame to an access point. The first frame may include media access control protocol data units (MPDUs). Each MPDU is associated with a traffic identifier (TID).

In response to receiving the first frame, the access point may generate a second frame based on the first frame. The second frame may include an indication that all of the MPDUs having TIDs are received. The access point may transmit the second frame to the station. Other methods, apparatus, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

The wireless device may reduce signal transmission power of one or more of the first signal or the second signal, based on a calculated power value exceeding an allowable transmission power. The wireless device may reduce the signal transmission power during an overlap period or a non-overlap period, based on a duration of an overlap of the first signal with the second signal.

Abstract: During a communication technique, an access point provides a message that includes one or more public land mobile network identifiers of one or more cellular-telephone networks that are supported by the access point. Then, an electronic device, which received the message, provides a candidate list specifying one or more access points that support communication with a cellular telephone network to a radio node that is associated with this cellular-telephone network. By communicating with a wireless-local-area-network (WLAN) controller, the radio node validates the one or more access points, and selects a target access point based on performance feedback from the WLAN controller. Next, the radio node instructs the electronic device to associate with the target access point. Moreover, the radio node and the target access point establish a secure-communication pathway, which allows the radio node to communicate data to the electronic device via the access point using an LTE Wi-Fi aggregation protocol.

Abstract: A master RAN node (1) sends, to a control plane function (5) in a core network (4), a modification request for modification of a first PDU session already established between a radio terminal (3) and a user plane function (6) in the core network (4). The modification request implicitly or explicitly indicates that PDU session split is needed for the first PDU session. The modification request causes the control plane function (5) to control the user plane function (6) to move a specific one or more QoS flows of a plurality of QoS flows associated with the first PDU session from a first tunnel between the user plane function (6) and the master RAN node (1) to a second tunnel between the user plane function (6) and a secondary RAN node (2). This contributes, for example, to implementing PDU session split in a radio communication network.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to wireless communications, and more particularly, to performing a handover on a per-data radio bearer (DRB) basis. In some examples, the disclosure is directed to indicating, to a source network entity, a make-before-break (MBB) handover capability of the UE, the MBB handover capability supporting MBB handovers for one or more DRBs identified by the source network entity. In some examples, the disclosure describes receiving, from the source network entity, configuration information for a handover from the source network entity to a target network entity, the configuration information identifying the one or more DRBs supported for the MBB handover.

Abstract: Restricting mobility between networks by identifying and rejecting incoming mobility events (e.g. handovers) from unknown cell sites based on a cellID included in a handover request. Core network nodes e.g. MME, AMF, SMF, can detect and reject the incoming mobility events by comparing Cell ID with a white list or referring to a database. This improves over current 3GPP specifications and network vendor implementations that support restriction policies on the source but not on the target.

Abstract: Example communication methods and apparatus are described. One example communication method includes receiving first indication information by a first network element from a second network element, where the first indication information is used to indicate that a current condition supports establishment of a session of a first network for a terminal apparatus. The first network element obtains first quality of service (QoS) control information of a first session of the terminal apparatus after receiving the first indication information, where the first session is a session established by the terminal apparatus by using a second network. The first network element sends the first QoS control information to the second network element.

In this method, the network side device or each terminal side device may subsequently perform random access on any one of the N uplink BWPs.
