Abstract: There is provided method for managing network resources by switching the slice used to support a user equipment (UE), in a process referred to as slice handover or slice switching. There are several reasons why a slice handover may be implemented, include movement of the UE and network load balancing. Further the UE can be switched to a new slice operated by the same service provider (intra-operator handover) or a different service provider (inter-operator handover).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Wireless communications systems may support implementation of narrow bandwidth parts (NBWPs). For example, a NBWP may be established over a reduced bandwidth to support user equipment (UEs) with reduced complexity features (e.g., such as UEs with reduced bandwidth capabilities). Wireless communications systems may provide for UE transitioning to a NBWP (e.g., after initial cell search), as well as for UE transitioning amongst NBWPs (e.g., subsequent transitions to other NBWPs after an initial transition to a NBWP after initial cell search). For example, a UE may initially transition to a NBWP (e.g., transition to monitor the NBWP for reference signals or to utilize the NBWP for uplink/downlink communications) to support reduced bandwidth capabilities of the UE. Subsequently, the UE may transition amongst other NBWPs for network load balancing, UE frequency hopping gain, etc.

Abstract: In 802.11ax networks with access points, a trigger frame offers scheduled and random resource units to nodes for data uplink communication to the access points. To make more effective the usage of the network, the access point may design the trigger frame to force the nodes to send some categories of data. Resource units may be defined in trigger frames to be dedicated to small packets or to some access category data. Adjusting the time length of the resource units helps restricting the type of data that can be conveyed by the resource units. Also, using various frequency widths for resource units in the same trigger frame helps reducing padding in the resource units when various traffic types coexist.
