  • Publication number: 20260292887
    Abstract: A method for mobile-terminated small data transmission, MT-SDT, wherein a timer is established to control when to use configured grant SDT, CG-SDT, resources and when to use random-access SDT, RA-SDT, resources. A user equipment starts the timer when it receives a MT-SDT paging message from a base station and if CG-SDT resources arrive when the timer is running, the UE will transmit a response to the MT-SDT paging message over CG-SDT resources and if CG-SDT resources are not arrived when the timer is running, the UE will use RA-SDT resources to transmit the response.

  • Publication number: 20260197884
    Abstract: A method of operating an arrangement of a plurality of network nodes arranged in a linear configuration, each of which network nodes being capable of directly communicating with n neighbouring network nodes located in either direction of the linear arrangement of network nodes. Operation of the nodes includes determining and assigning an unambiguous and individual rank to each one of the plurality of network nodes. Each rank indicates a position of the respective network node within the linear network. The ranks orderly increase from one end of the linear arrangement of network nodes to the other end. The network nodes toggle between a first and a second mode of operation. A power consumption of the network nodes in the first mode of operation is lower than in the second mode. Messages are transmitted along the linear arrangement of network nodes using a non-synchronised, zero-signalling, stateless multipath and multi-hop message routing protocol, via network nodes that are in the second mode of operation.
