Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may determine a scaling factor for a UE measurement period based at least in part on the UE being associated with a non-terrestrial network (NTN). The UE may perform a measurement during a scaled UE measurement period based at least in part on the scaling factor and the UE measurement period. Numerous other aspects are described.

A UE performs PDCCH monitoring for at least one serving cell by switching a search space set of a first SSSG to a search space of a second SSSG at a search space set group (SSSG) switching time. When PDCCH monitoring is performed in a unit of a slot-group for the at least one serving cell, the UE determines the SSSG switching time based on a largest Xs value among Xs values for the at least one serving cell.

A wireless communication network selects Network Functions (NFs) using a first Network Repository Function (NRF) and a second NRF. The first NRF receives first status data from a first set of the NFs and transfers the first status data to the second NRF. The second NRF receives second status data from a second set of the NFs and transfers the second status data to the first NRF. The first NRF receives a request for one of the NF types and responsively identifies status data for the one of the NF types. The first NRF indicates the status data. The second NRF receives another request for another one of the NF types and responsively identifies status data for the other one of the NF types. The second NRF transfers another response that indicates status data. The wireless communication network selects individual ones of the NFs based the status data.

A method of coordinating a plurality of radio access networks (RANs) includes aggregating, with a gateway, communications interfaces between a plurality of RANs and a packet core network through the gateway. A plurality of radio nodes (RNs) in each of the RANs is communicatively coupled to the gateway and to user equipment (UE) devices associated with the RNs in each of the RANs. The gateway also controls and coordinates mobility of the UE devices within and among the RANs. In addition, the gateway acts as a virtual enhanced NodeB (eNB) to the packet core network, thereby hiding the aggregated communications interfaces from the packet core network.

Provided is a wireless communication terminal that communicates wirelessly. The terminal includes: a transceiver; and a processor. The processor is configured to receive a frame through the transceiver, determine whether the frame is classified into an Intra-Basic Service Set (BSS) frame or an Inter-BSS frame according to a BSS from which the frame is transmitted, and access a channel according to whether the frame is an Intra-BSS frame or an Inter-BSS frame.

Aspects of the subject disclosure include, for example, identifying a primary serving cell and a secondary serving cell, wherein the primary serving cell facilitates one of attachment, re-attachment or mobility, or any combination thereof, of a mobile device in association with coordination of a wireless service between the primary serving cell, the secondary serving cell and the mobile device. A latency value associated with a message exchange is determined between the primary and secondary serving cells via a messaging interface, and compared to latency requirements, which correspond to a group of mobile service features. A mobile service feature of the group is associated with the wireless service based on the comparison. The wireless service includes a coordinated exchange of wireless signals between the primary serving cell and the mobile device and between the secondary serving cell and the mobile device based on the mobile service feature. Other embodiments are disclosed.
