Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques described herein relate to handover between Non-Standalone (NSA) and Standalone (SA) networks. An example method includes receiving, from a User Equipment (UE), a measurement report indicating that a signal threshold has been satisfied. In response to receiving the measurement report, handover of a communication session from a first core network to a second core network may be initiated. A message confirming that the communication session has been handed over from the first core network to the second core network can be received. In response to receiving the message, handover of the communication session can be initiated between a single radio bearer associated with a first Radio Access Technology (RAT) and a dual radio bearer associated with the first RAT and a second RAT.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may receive a configuration for a group-common physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), where the group-common PDSCH is repeated for a number of repetitions. Accordingly, the UE may determine this number of repetitions and then monitor for the group-common PDSCH based on the number of repetitions. In some implementations, the group-common PDSCH may include a semi-static repetition scheme, where the number of repetitions is indicated via a group aggregation factor. Additionally or alternatively, the group-common PDSCH may include a dynamic repetition scheme, where the number of repetitions is indicated via a group repetition number. Additionally, the techniques described herein may enable the configuration for the repeated group-common PDSCH to include gaps between each repetition of the group-common PDSCH and for the UE to transmit acknowledgment feedback for the repetitions of the group-common PDSCH.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a D2D capable a communication method and to a transmitting user equipment, which transmits data to a receiving user equipment over a direct link data channel, uses the services of the eNodeB in order to have resources allocated for transmitting said data. To this end the UE sends to the eNB scheduling information using resources of a subframe dedicated for standard uplink communication through the eNodeB, rather than using resources on the subframe dedicated to D2D data transmission. In order to allow the eNB to distinguish whether the received scheduling request is for allocating resources for transmitting data over the direct link channel or over the eNB, UE may send along with the scheduling information also identification information associated to the scheduling information.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for routing in-bound communications to an infrastructure service. In an implementation, an infrastructure service receives a request from an end point for content associated with an origin. The service sends a connection request to the origin from an initial network address. After detecting a failure of the origin to respond to the connection request, the service sends multiple connection requests to the origin from different network addresses. Upon receiving one or more replies to the connection requests, the service identifies which reply was received first and a network address to which the reply was sent. The service proceeds to establish a connection with the origin using the identified network address and obtains the content from the origin over the connection. The infrastructure service may then send the content to the end point.
