Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for selecting and/or applying a sidelink (SL) transmission mode are provided. One method may include configuring, by a network node, at least one sidelink (SL) user equipment (UE) to use simultaneous sidelink (SL) mode 1 and mode 2 for one or more sidelink (SL) logical channels (LCHs). The method may also include configuring the at least one sidelink (SL) user equipment (UE) with a plurality of transmission patterns related to the use of the sidelink (SL) mode 1 or mode 2.

Abstract: Apparatus and method in a communication system for reconfiguring resources for transmission are disclosed. More than one sidelink transmissions are transmitted to a second apparatus. It is determined that reception status feedbacks are not received regarding a given number of sidelink transmissions. Transmission resource used for sidelink transmission is reconfigured based on the determination.

Abstract: There is provided controlling radio channel measurements on radio channels of different wireless networks. A wireless communication device performs first radio channel measurements on a first radio channel of a first wireless communication network and second radio channel measurements on at least one second radio channel of a second wireless communication network. It is determined, on the basis of the first radio channel measurements and the second radio channel measurements, a relationship between the first radio channel and the at least one second radio channel. Measurement activity of the at least one second radio channel is controlled on the basis of at least the determined relationship and the first radio channel measurements.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media of a proactive switch of vehicle-to-everything communication from a device-to-device connection to a connection routed by one or more network devices. In example embodiments, a first terminal device receives, from a second terminal device via a device-to-device connection, an indication of a decision to switch the device-to-device connection to a connection routed by at least one network device for communication with the second terminal device. Based on the received indication from the second terminal device, the first terminal device then determines proactive switching from the device-to-device connection to the routed connection to be performed. The first terminal device then sends a request to a first network device of the at least one network device to set up the routed connection, the request indicating a cause for the determined proactive switching.

Abstract: An apparatus comprising: comprising at least a first SIM associated with a first network and a second SIM associated with the first or a second network, wherein the first SIM is configured to operate in an idle or an inactive mode of a RRC while the second SIM configured to temporarily operate in a connected mode of the RRC and vice versa; means for allocating a radio transceiver of the apparatus for a communication of the first SIM and the second SIM for alternative active periods, wherein the first SIM is configured to at least monitor paging messages during its active periods and the second SIM is configured to at least perform beam management operations during its active periods; means for monitoring a number of scheduled beam management operations of the second SIM skipped during the active periods of the radio transceiver allocated for the first SIM; means for determining, based on at least data from the performed beam management operations, a threshold value for the skipped beam management operations;

Abstract: Disclosed is a method comprising receiving, by a first terminal device, a first transmission from a second terminal device. The first terminal device measures a channel busy ratio over a first time window. The first terminal device determines a channel occupancy ratio of the second terminal device based at least partly on the received first transmission. The first terminal device updates the channel busy ratio based at least partly on the determined channel occupancy ratio and the measured channel busy ratio. The first terminal device determines one or more sidelink transmission parameters based at least partly on the updated channel busy ratio.

Abstract: There is provided reduced power consumption in devices that use at least two identities for communications. A method comprises aligning (1302) a plurality of paging occasions across at least two identities of a communication device. The aligning is performed via requesting and receiving (1306) from a communication network a paging occasion for the communication device with at least two identities using at least one of the identities.

Abstract: Apparatus and method in a communication system for reconfiguring resources for transmission are disclosed. More than one sidelink transmissions are transmitted to a second apparatus. It is determined that reception status feedbacks are not received regarding a given number of sidelink transmissions. Transmission resource used for sidelink transmission is reconfigured based on the determination.

Abstract: Described herein is a technology for transmitting a plurality of packets. In some implementations, information indicating a time characteristic of a pre-defined received signal of a subscriber of a mobile device is determined. The time characteristic is compared against one or more predetermined interference signal time characteristics to generate a comparison result. One or more actions are executed based on the comparison result.
