A method for improving a paging response speed of a user equipment (UE), includes: camping, by the UE on a first cell of a first network, the UE being in an RRC connected state; when a first preset condition is met, sending, by an access network device, a first message to the UE, the first message being used to indicate the UE to enter an RRC inactive state; recording, by the access network device, that the UE is in an RRC inactive state; and in response to the first message that is received, entering, by the UE, the RRC inactive state; and when a second preset condition is met, camping, by the UE, on a second cell of the first network, where the UE is in an RRC inactive state, and the first cell and the second cell are the same or different.

Systems and methods are provided for a user equipment to train a transmit beam of a transmission configuration indication (TCI) for a non-serving cell. A system may use uplink (UL) reference signal (RS) based transmit (Tx) beam training with a target non-serving cell. The Target non-serving cell may measure the UL RS and determine a best Tx beam. The system may coordinate information regarding the best Tx beam to update a TCI at the UE for the target non-serving cell.

The disclosure provides a method for providing an enterprise gNB for connection to a 5G packet core network. The method includes provisioning the enterprise gNB. The enterprise gNB hosts a local user plane function (L-UPF). The method also includes configuring the 5G packet core network comprising a session management function (SMF) to select the local user plane function to service user equipment (UE) connected to the enterprise gNB.

To predict a first metric for a station in a wireless network, at least one hardware processor in a prediction device or at least one hardware processor in a first access point associated with the station, determines that a recent measurement of a second metric correlated with the first metric has hanged compared to a previous measurement of the second metric, the second metric for the station and measured by the first access point; and in case the second metric has changed, prediction of the first metric for the station is triggered. The first metric can be a signal strength of a signal received by the station from a second access point not associated with the station and the second metric a signal strength of a signal received by the first access point from the station.
