Abstract: Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described for a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU), comprising a memory, and a processor to execute instructions from the memory, wherein the processor is configured to access a non-3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Access Network (AN), establish a link with a Non-3GPP Interworking Function (N3IWF) via the non-3GPP AN, request information from the N3IWF about network slicing capabilities of a 3GPP Radio Access Network (RAN), receive information from the N3IWF about network slicing capabilities of the 3GPP RAN, and determine whether to register with the 3GPP RAN based upon the network slicing capabilities of the 3GPP RAN. Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are described for sending information about network slicing capabilities of a 3GPP RAN to a N3IWF, establishing a link between a WTRU operating on a non-3GPP AN and the N3IWF via the non-3GPP AN, and sending information from the N3IWF to the WTRU about network slicing capabilities of the 3GPP RAN.

Abstract: Method and apparatuses for low-latency transmission of sensor data and wireless modem data are described herein. A method may comprise associating, by a Wireless Transmit/Receive Unit (WTRU), a first Unique Data Identifier (UDI) with the sensor data and a second UDI with the wireless modem data. The method may further comprise generating, by the WTRU, a mapping between the first UDI and a first network Quality of Service (QoS) Flow Identifiers (QFIs) and a mapping between the second UDI and a second network QFI. The method may further comprise transmitting, by the WTRU, the sensor data and the wireless modem data to a network node.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are described herein for hosting protocol functionalities for a tenant node. A host node may receive, from a tenant node, a first packet adapted to a first radio access technology (RAT). The first packet may be encapsulated with a header including a functional split indicator indicating at least one protocol functionality to be performed by the host node. The host node may transmit, via the at least one protocol functionality, a second packet adapted to a second RAT. The second packet may be converted from the first packet by a convergence layer to adapt the second RAT. The host node may transmit the second packet and a third packet to one or more nodes. The second packet may include one or more protocol data units/service data units (PDUs/SDUs) associated with the tenant node. The third packet may include one or more PDUs/SDUs associated with the host node.
