Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method performed by a first entity in a wireless communication system is provided. The method includes transmitting connection assistance information to a second entity in the wireless communication system.

Abstract: The invention provides a method for changing a serving entity, which comprises the following steps: sending, by a first entity, a first message to a second entity; receiving, by the first entity, a second message from the second entity; and sending, by a first entity, a third message to UE.

Abstract: The present application discloses a node, a UE and methods thereof. A method performed by a third node in a communication system includes receiving information about a first measurement from a first node; and in response, sending configuration information of the first measurement to the first node; or sending a first measurement report received from a UE to a fourth node.

Abstract: A method and a device for session setup and handover in a wireless communication system are provided. The method comprises receiving, from a second node, a message comprising a single network slice selection assistance information (S-NSSAI) of a protocol data unit (PDU) session; and allocating session resources for the PDU session based on the message received from the second node, wherein, in case that the S-NSSAI of the PDU session is supported by the first node, the session resources for the PDU session includes resources related to the S-NSSAI of the PDU session, and wherein, in case that the S-NSSAI of the PDU session is unsupported by the first node or the resources related to the S-NSSAI are unavailable or overloaded, the session resources for the PDU session includes other available resources for the PDU session.

Abstract: A positioning configuration method in a wireless communication system and an electronic device are disclosed. The method performed by a first node includes: identifying that a user equipment (UE) enters into an inactive state, and transmitting, to a second node, a message including information associated with a reservation of a positioning related configuration, wherein the positioning related configuration is not released for the UE in the inactive state based on the message.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a pre-5th generation (5G) or 5G communication system to be provided for supporting higher data rates beyond 4th generation (4G) communication system such as long term evolution (LTE). A method for data processing in a wireless communication network is provided. The method includes obtaining, by a first node, data, and generating, by the first node, information for self optimization according to the data.

Abstract: A measurement method is provided herein, which includes a first node transmitting a first message to a second node. The first message includes configuration related to a second measurement for assisting a first measurement. The second node starts the second measurement according to the configuration related to the second measurement, or obtains information used for aligning the first measurement with the second measurement according to the configuration related to the second measurement.
