Methods and techniques are described for supporting location services for a user equipment (UE) using a location server and service based interfaces (SBIs) and SBI service operations in a Fifth Generation wireless network. The location server may be, e.g., a Location Management Function (LMF). The LMF may be in either a serving Public Land Mobile Network (PLMN) for a UE or in a Home PLMN for a roaming UE. The LMF may receive a location service request for the UE using an SBI and may communicate with another entity in the network, through a second entity and using an SBI, to obtain location information for the UE measured by the other entity. The LMF may determine a location for the UE based on the location information.

An apparatus for sharing location information of a vehicle may include: a communication circuit configured to communicate with a server, and a processor electrically connected with the communication circuit. The processor may be configured to receive, via the communication circuit, authentication information for sharing the location information of the vehicle from the server; transmit, via the communication circuit, the authentication information to an external device, which is a target for sharing the authentication information, such that the external device receives the location information from the server; and acquire the location information from the server using the authentication information.

A system includes at least one medical device (7), a remote monitoring server (RMS, 1) and at least one patient remote device (PR, 5). The the PR is configured to establish a first bidirectional communication connection (12, 14) of the PR and the RMS and a second bidirectional communication connection (13, 14) of the PR and one chosen medical device, wherein the PR is further configured to manage remote processes associated with the chosen medical device comprising remote interrogation of the chosen medical device and remote programming of the chosen medical device using the second bidirectional communication connection as well as data exchange with the RMS concerning interrogation data and/or program data with regard to the chosen medical device using the first bidirectional communication connection.

An information reporting method includes: determining that a secondary cell group (SCG) failure occurs; reporting SCG failure-related information to the base station, the SCG failure related information including location information of user equipment (UE).

A communication method includes: receiving out-of-band communication modes supported by a power transmitter (PTX) and transmitted by the PTX via a first communication mode, wherein the first communication mode comprises an enhanced in-band communication mode; matching the out-of-band communication modes supported by the PTX with out-of-band communication modes supported by a power receiver (PRX); and when the out-of-band communication modes supported by the PTX and the out-of-band communication modes supported by the PRX share an identical out-of-band communication mode, using the identical out-band communication mode to return data to the PTX or to return a result of the matching between the out-of-band communication modes to the PTX. Embodiments of the present disclosure can be used to achieve compatibility with multiple communication modes and to support high-speed communication in a wireless charging system.
