A UE may determine a transmission dropping rule and a transmission power scaling rule for a PUCCH which is dedicatedly configured for secondary BFR transmission, such as a PUCCH-BFR, when it is multiplexed with at least one other signal. The PUCCH-BFR and the at least one other signal may be multiplexed in a CC or in multiple CCs. The UE may determine a transmission dropping rule, e.g., so that UE can transmit an uplink signals with higher priority and drop the other uplink signal with lower priority to avoid beam collisions. The UE may determine a transmission power scaling rule, e.g., so the UE may scale transmission power within a CC and/or across CCs. The UE may multiplex the PUCCH-BFR with the at least one other signal according to the rules.

Abstract: A routing information management method adapted for a layer-3 switch is proposed. For each ARP entry in an ARP table, a processor assigns to the ARP entry an aging reference parameter that is identical to a quantity of those routing entries in an IP routing table whose next hop IP addresses are identical to the IP address of the ARP entry, and removes those ARP entries whose aging reference parameters are zero. For each routing entry in the IP routing table, when the next hop IP address of the routing entry is absent from the ARP table, the processor makes the routing entry serve as an inactive routing entry, proactively sends an ARP request for the inactive routing entry, and updates the ARP table based on a piece of ARP information received externally.

The first terminal device determines a congestion level indicator of a sidelink channel for the first slot based at least in part on the first number and a number of the first resources. The sidelink channel is associated with the first terminal device. With the proposed mechanism, the sidelink congestion level indicator, such as, a channel busy ratio (CBR) is determined with consideration of the resource selection scheme and the reception capability of the terminal device.
