Abstract: If uplink data together with an RRC resume request message is received from a radio terminal in an RRC_INACTIVE state and a radio terminal context is not available in a first RAN node (1), the first RAN node (1) sends a second type of control message to a second RAN node (2). The second type of control message requests the radio terminal context, and is distinct from a first type of control message that is sent to the second RAN node (2) by the first RAN node (1) when an RRC resume request message not accompanied by uplink data is received. This can contribute, for example, to enabling uplink (UL) data of a radio terminal in RRC_INACTIVE to be transmitted to a core network without relocating a radio terminal context from an old RAN node to a new RAN node.

Abstract: Aspects are provided to support payloads for msgA transmission in a two-step random access (RACH) procedure by providing a one-to-many mapping arrangement between preambles and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) resource units (PRUs).

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for using opportunistically delayed delivery of content to address sub-optimal bandwidth resource usage in network infrastructures that allow subscribers to share forward link resources. According to some embodiments, content is identified as delayable and assigned to a delaycast queue and/or service flow. For example, a server system of a satellite communications system identifies content that can be delayed to exploit future excess link capacity through multicasting and to exploit subscriber-side storage resources. Some implementations attempt to exploit any excess link resources at any time, while others exploit unused bandwidth only during certain times or when a certain threshold of resources is available. Various embodiments also provide content scoring and/or other prioritization techniques for optimizing exploitation of the delaycast queue.
