Abstract: A base station (1) transmits, to a radio terminal (2), downlink control information including a first field for indicating frequency domain resources and a second field for indicating time domain resources allocated to the radio terminal (2). The base station (1) reduces the size of the first field as it increases the size of the second field. This can, for example, contribute to improving flexibility in time domain resource assignment without increasing the size of the downlink control information (e.g., scheduling DCI) that indicates radio resources allocated to the radio terminal.

Abstract: A method for transmitting a random access channel (RACH) by a terminal in a wireless communication system is provided. The method comprises: receiving a synchronization signal block (SSB) from a base station; receiving a downlink signal from the base station; and when the reception of the downlink signal is finished, transmitting the RACH to the base station, wherein the SSB is periodically transmitted in every Nth fixed frame period (FFP), N is an integer equal to or greater than 1, and the starting time point for transmission of the SSB corresponds to a first time resource included in the every Nth FFP.

Abstract: Multicast and unicast communication among computing devices across different local area networks (LANs) and without static IP addresses is supported by assigning an instant-share (InS) address to an individual computing device. The InS address is recognizable by a dedicated router located in the Internet and enables the dedicated router to communicate with the individual computing device. The individual computing device embeds an InS address of a destination computing device in a data message to form an extended data message, and sends the extended data message to the dedicated router. The dedicated router then forwards the extended data message to the destination computing device. A group member contact synchronization among different computing devices in a group without Internet connectivity is also supported. Local lists of group members from different computing devices are collected. The most-recent one is used to update the local list of group members of a computing device.

Abstract: An IoT service of a provider network may be used to optimize downlink scheduling for edge devices that use a radio communication protocol (e.g., LoRaWAN). A processing instance receives DL packets from a client application that are to be sent to an edge device. The processing instance adds metadata entries (device ID, message ID) to a metadata queue and stores the DL packets into a data store. A scheduling instance obtains a metadata entry and the associated DL packet, formats the DL packet based on edge device information, and publishes the packet to a gateway topic. A separate connection instance receives the formatted DL packet and sends it to a gateway of the client network.

Based on the information, the UE uses the APN value or the DNN value to request establishment of a Packet Data Network (PDN) connection or a Protocol Data Unit (PDU) session with the mobile communication network.
