Abstract: Embodiments includes methods for a centralized unit (CU) in an integrated access backhaul (IAB) network. Such methods include determining a first identifier of a first backhaul radio link control (BH RLC) channel between first and second nodes in the IAB network. The second node is a child node of the first node. Such methods include sending, to the second node, a second request to setup a second BH RLC channel between the second node and a third node in the IAB network. The third node is a child node of the second node, and the second request includes the first identifier for association with the second BH RLC channel. In some embodiments, at least one data radio bearer between a user equipment (UE) and the CU is associated with both the first and second BH RLC channels. Other embodiments include complementary methods for an intermediate node in the IAB network.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for packet delay budget (PDB) coordination between two integrated access and backhaul (TAB) nodes for a radio link control (RLC) channel in an TAB network. An TAB node may dynamically adjust its configured one-hop RLC channel PDB based on channel conditions or buffer loading associated with the TAB node. The TAB node may then indicate bonus PDB at a next-hop node or request additional PDB from the next-hop node.

Abstract: [Problem to be Solved] Optimizing a route of time synchronization in a network including apparatuses with different types of precision classes. [Solution to the Problem] A time transmission system includes BC nodes 200 with different types of apparatus performances, and multiple routes of PTP packets from GM nodes 101 and 102 to a BC node 220 via the BC node 200 are present. Each BC node 200 located upstream on a route performs notification of performance information indicating its apparatus performance to the BC node 200 located downstream with respect thereto. The BC node 220 includes a determination index calculation unit 11 that calculates a determination index for each route by referencing the performance information notified from the BC nodes 200 located upstream on each route, and a route selection unit 12 that selects a route for transmitting and receiving PTP packets from multiple routes of PTP packets to the BC node 220, based on the calculated determination index for each route.

Abstract: Embodiments of a beacon interval with boundary time points (BTPs) to improve latency for time sensitive traffic (TST) in Extremely High Throughout (EHT) WLANS are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a non-access point (AP) station (STA) is configured to decode a beacon frame received from an AP STA. The beacon frame may indicate one or more BTPs within a beacon interval (BI). The non-AP STA may obtain a transmission opportunity (TXOP) for a transmission to the AP STA. The TXOP may be bounded by the one or more BTPs. The non-AP STA may encode a PPDU for transmission to the AP STA during the TXOP.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for wireless communications that support fast user equipment (UE) handover between base stations. A UE may receive, from a source base station, a configuration for reference signal transmission at a set of uplink transmit power levels. The UE may transmit multiple uplink reference signal repetitions based on the configuration. The source base station may transmit a request message to a target base station to measure the multiple uplink reference signal repetitions. The target base station may select an uplink reference signal and measure a transmit power correction. The target base station may transmit an indication to the source base station of the selection and transmit power correction. The source base station may evaluate the indications and select the target base station. The source base station may forward to the indicated contents, and the UE may switch and synchronize with the target base station.

Abstract: A station (STA) of a wireless local area network (WLAN) transitions implicitly between power management (PM) modes or PM states, without providing an explicit indication of the PM mode/state change to an access point (AP) of the WLAN. Transitions include changes between an active mode and a power save (PS) mode, or between an awake state and a doze state of the PS mode. Transitions occur immediately after receipt of a beacon indicating pending data for the STA, after an offset time indicated in the beacon, or at a specific wake time negotiated with the AP. After data reception is complete, the STA transitions implicitly to the PS mode or a doze state of the PS mode, after a power save inactivity timeout period or after receiving an indication that data transmission is complete.
