Abstract: A network node of a wireless communication network provides information to a User Equipment (UE) that allows the UE to adapt it radio measurements with respect to the network, to account for “link changes.” Link changes are service-link and/or feeder-link changes arising from motion by the satellite(s) included in the Radio Access Network (RAN) portion of the network. The UE uses the provided information to adapt its radio measurements in conjunction with the link changes. Among the several advantages of accounting for satellite link changes in the manner contemplated are any one or more of reduced signaling going between the UE and the network, reduced battery consumption at the UE, mitigation of the effects of the link changes on the radio measurements, avoidance of spurious measurements, and an effective “automation” of the timed changeover by the UE to new measurement configurations, coincident with the occurrence of link changes.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method (1300) in a network device. The method (1300) includes: determining (s1310) a RACH configuration according to at least one random access procedure, wherein the RACH configuration comprises a preamble mapping indication indicating mapping of RACH preambles to SSBs and a SSB mapping indication indicating mapping of SSBs to ROs; transmitting (s1320) the RACH configuration; and receiving (s1330) a RACH preamble which is transmitted according to the RACH configuration from a terminal device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for embossing structures into an embossing material, having a structure punch for embossing the structures into the embossing material. The structure punch can be kept under a constant local expansion during embossing and separation from the embossing material.
