Abstract: An approach is described for a base station to generate a first message and a second message. The base station transmits the first message and the second message to a user equipment (UE). The first message is associated with a cell supported by the base station and includes a first public land mobile network (PLMN) identity index and a first list of one or more network slices supported by a first PLMN associated with the first PLMN identity index. The second message is associated with one or more neighboring cells, and includes the first PLMN identity index and a second list of one or more network slice data associated the first PLMN as supported by the one or more neighboring cells. In addition, at least one of the one or more network slice data in the second list includes a sub-list of one or more neighboring cell data.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) and/or cellular network to resume a connection. To resume the connection, the UE may transmit a fully protected connection resume message, e.g., which may include protection for a resume cause field.

Abstract: An example technique for security key derivation in a wireless system includes: sending a radio resource control (RRC) suspend message from a first node, to a first user device, the RRC suspend message including a first next hop (NH) chaining counter (NCC) value; releasing access stratum (AS) resources associated with the first user device; deriving a first node key based on the first NCC value; receiving a first uplink message from the first user device without allocating AS resources to the first user device; and unscrambling the first uplink message based on the first NCC value.

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for supporting voice services during roaming.

Abstract: Embodiments of this disclosure relate to the communication field, and provide a data transmission method for short-range wireless communication, and a communication apparatus. The method includes: A first device sends a plurality of first data packets to a second device, where the first device and the second device perform short-range wireless communication. The first device receives a second data packet from the second device, where a first field in the second data packet includes a plurality of indications indicating whether the plurality of first data packets are successfully received.

Abstract: A clock synchronization method includes sending a narrowband synchronization frame via a narrowband system, to complete coarse clock synchronization in a wideband system; and sending a wideband frame after duration, allocated by the narrowband system, for switching from a narrowband to a wideband ends, to complete fine clock synchronization in the wideband system.

Abstract: This application provides example ultra-wideband (UWB) signal synchronization methods and example communication apparatuses. One example method includes processing a narrowband signal to obtain time-frequency synchronization information of the narrowband signal. A synchronization signal of an UWB signal can be processed based on the time-frequency synchronization information of the narrowband signal to obtain time-frequency synchronization information of the UWB signal, where the UWB signal includes the synchronization signal and a ranging signal. The ranging signal can be received based on the time-frequency synchronization information of the UWB signal.
