The described technology is generally directed towards adaptive radio access network bit rate scheduling. Minimum bit rates for user equipment can be adjusted in a manner that accounts for the impact of the minimum bit rates on network performance. Ranges of minimum bit rates can be established for user equipment, and minimum bit rates can be adjusted within the ranges. A minimum bit rate can be decreased when it produces a relatively higher impact on network performance, and the minimum bit rate can be increased when it produces a relatively lower impact on network performance.

A method and a system for identifying radio access network (RAN) coverage at geographic locations includes generating a grid layer of real-time RAN coverage based on a key performance indicator (KPI). Generating a grid layer of predicted RAN coverage. Generating a viewport representation corresponding to a geographic location supported by the RAN. Superimposing the real-time RAN coverage grid layer, the predicted RAN coverage grid layer, and the viewport representation into a unified coverage representation. Determining RAN availability at a selected geographic location based on the unified coverage representation.

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. Provided is a method performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system that includes receiving a radio resource control (RRC) message including information associated with a deactivation of a secondary cell group (SCG), and resetting a medium access control (MAC) of the SCG based on the RRC message, with a timing alignment timer (TAT) associated with the SCG not being stopped for resetting the MAC of the SCG.

Aspects described herein relate to bi-direction preemption indication transmissions. In one example, a node such as an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node may determine that a set of one or more resources are preempted for use for both an uplink transmission and a downlink transmission, and transmit, to a user equipment (UE), the bi-direction preemption indication indicating that the set of one or more resources are preempted for use for both of the uplink transmission and the downlink transmission. In another example, a UE may receive a bi-direction preemption indication indicating that a set of one or more resources are preempted for use for both an uplink transmission and a downlink transmission, and perform rate matching for both of the uplink transmission and downlink transmission based on the set of one or more resources indicated by the bi-direction preemption indication.

The disclosure relates to a 5G or 6G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate. A channel access method of a user equipment (UE) transmitting sidelink information in an unlicensed band is provided. The method may include transmitting sidelink control information including at least one piece of a transmission type information of hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ)-acknowledgement (ACK) feedback for data transmitted in a reference duration, adjusting a contention duration, based on the HARQ-ACK feedback for the data transmitted in the reference duration and the transmission type information of the HARQ-ACK feedback for the data transmitted in the reference duration, and performing channel access, based on the adjusted contention duration.
