Provided are a data transmission method and apparatus and a computer storage medium. The method may include: a source Distributed Unit (DU) reports a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) transmission state report to a source Centralized Unit (CU), where the PDCP transmission state report enables the CU to determine which PDCP protocol data unit (PDU) data is not successfully received by a UE; and the PDCP PDU data which is not successfully received by the UE are retransmitted to the UE via a target DU.

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. Embodiments disclose a method and system for handling a network slice specific authentication and authorization (NSSAA) process in a wireless network system.

Suggested is a novel condition for a media access control (MAC) entity in user equipment (UE) reselecting a sidelink resource in a wireless communication system. The MAC entity of the UE can reselect a sidelink resource when a configured sidelink grant does not satisfy a latency requirement according to ProSe per-packet priority (PPPP). More particularly, configuration is performed by an upper layer so that the MAC entity transmits on the basis of sensing using a resource pool; the MAC entity selects generation of a configured sidelink grant corresponding to transmission of a plurality of MAC protocol data units (PDU); and when data is available in a sidelink traffic channel (STCH) and the configured sidelink grant does not satisfy the latency requirement according to the PPPP, a sidelink resource is reselected.

A base station establishes a wireless connection in a first portion of a frequency band with a user equipment located in a first geographic area. The first portion is allocated to an operator of the base station in response to a request transmitted to a spectrum access server (SAS). The user equipment is handed over from the first portion to a second portion of the frequency band in response to detecting presence of an incumbent that is allocated a third portion of the frequency band for exclusive use within a second geographic area that overlaps with the first geographic area. The third portion overlaps with the first portion. The second portion is allocated to the operator in response to the request. The first portion and the second portion are separated by a frequency bandwidth that is larger than a threshold determined based on a frequency bandwidth allocated to incumbents.

Distribution of traffic to cells in a communication network can be controlled. A distribution management component (DMC) can determine overall device traffic throughput for cells of a sector that satisfy a defined traffic throughput criterion relating to a harmonic mean of the device traffic throughput for the cells to desirably enhance or maximize the harmonic mean of the overall device traffic throughput. Based on the overall device traffic throughput for the cells, the DMC can determine whether to adjust a characteristic associated with a cell of the cells to facilitate adjusting distribution of device traffic among the cells of the sector to achieve desirable load balancing of traffic by the sector and in the network. Load balancing can be achieved by controlling respective parameters with regard to communication devices that are in idle mode or connected mode to facilitate directing communication devices and associated traffic to desired cells.
