Abstract: Techniques described herein include solutions for wireless local area network (WLAN) cellular aggregation (WCA). A user equipment (UE) may be configured to communicate with one or more base stations using both a direct cellular link and a multi-hop WLAN link. The multi-hop WLAN link may utilize a WLAN terminal as a relay. The WLAN terminal may communicate with the UE via a WLAN connection, and communicate with a base station via a cellular connection. The WLAN terminal may utilize endpoint mapping information when forwarding packets from the base station to the UE in downlink (DL), or from the UE to the base station in uplink (UL). The endpoint mapping information may be configured before the WCA transmissions and stored in a memory of the WLAN terminal, or may be indicated dynamically in a packet header of each WCA transmission.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for split-bearer enhancements during dual-connectivity operation, e.g., in 5G NR systems and beyond (e.g., NextG, 6G, and so forth). A base station may set up a split-bearer for a UE operating in dual-connectivity and connected to the base station and one or more corresponding base stations, including setting up a ratio of a split of data to be delivered to the UE via the base station and the one or more corresponding base stations. The base station may transmit, based on the ratio of the split, a first portion of the data destined for the UE to the UE and a second portion of the data destined for the UE to the one or more corresponding base stations. The base station may adjust, based on one or more split-bearer quality reports received from the UE, the ratio of the split.

Abstract: This Application sets forth techniques for cellular service management of cellular wireless service subscriptions for a set of wireless devices, including switching one or more cellular wireless service subscription among different wireless devices in the set of mobile wireless devices based on user-initiated triggers and/or autonomously when one or more cellular service switching criteria are satisfied.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and processors are provided for supporting a distributed computing framework. In one example, a wireless communication device is configured to act as a distributed computing control node (ContN), the wireless communication device including a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to, when executing instructions stored in the memory, cause the device to receive respective registration messages from respective wireless communication devices. The registration messages include registration information indicating whether a respective wireless communication device acts as an offload node (OffN) for distributed computing or a compute node (CompN) for distributed computing.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for scheduling radio resource control (RRC) processing for a dual-SIM dual-active (DSDA) user equipment (UE) connected to a plurality of networks. In one example embodiment, a UE may be configured to implement operations including: receiving a request to process a first RRC message for a first RRC task for a first SIM card from a first network; receiving a request to process a second RRC message for a second RRC task for a second SIM card from a second network; and performing an arbitration decision to decide whether to prioritize the implementation of the first RRC task for the first SIM card or the second RRC task for the second SIM card.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to receive configuration information comprising multiple configuration sets, receive a paging message from a base station, the paging message configured to initiate a mobile terminating connection between the UE and the base station, identify a first configuration set assigned to the UE from the multiple configuration sets based on the paging message and exchange data with a network using the first configuration set, wherein exchanging data with network comprises at least one of receiving downlink data and transmitting uplink data.

Abstract: Systems and methods for cross layer optimization for selection of a best or most preferred cell from conditional special cell (SpCell) change candidate cells are disclosed. The conditional SpCell change may be, for example, a conditional handover (CHO) or a conditional primary cell of a secondary cell group (PSCell) change (CPC). Conditions for a conditional SpCell change may be provided to a user equipment (UE). It may be that measurements on multiple cells meet the condition(s) for a conditional SpCell change by the UE. Preferences/criteria for selecting a cell from these multiple compliant candidate cells meeting the conditional SpCell change conditions are discussed herein. These criteria may include, but are not limited to, for example, a cell quality, an inter-versus intra-frequency handover, bandwidth, component carrier (CC) use, band, carrier type, needs/criticality of the application, congestion, frequency range, multiple subscriber identity module (MSIM) considerations, etc.
