This disclosure provides a satellite beam offset processing method, a device and a medium. The method includes: a network side device indicating a satellite beam offset parameter to a terminal via a broadcast message and/or a dedicated signalling; the terminal receiving the satellite beam offset parameter indicated by the network side device via the broadcast message and/or the dedicated signalling; and the terminal adjusting a communication process of the terminal according to the satellite beam offset parameter.

A method of communicating between an aerial vehicle and a cellular radio access network is described. In some cases, the method includes determining a current location of the aerial vehicle; determining, in response to the current location, a location of a nearest cell of the cellular radio access network; and processing communications between the aerial vehicle and the cellular radio access network, using the nearest cell as a serving cell. When the method is performed on-board an aerial vehicle, the method further includes orienting a directional antenna of the aerial vehicle toward the location of the nearest cell.

Methods and apparatus for supporting wireless networks, e.g., mesh networks, which are well suited for use in metropolitan areas are described. In various embodiments, vehicle based communications systems are used to support a mesh network. A communications device, e.g., vehicle's WiFi communications system, scans for access points and selects between available access points based on, e.g., speed and/or direction of the vehicle in which the communications device is located and, when available, information about the speed, direction and/or route of the access point to which the communications device is considering attaching. Access points are prioritized based on the QOS they can support and/or the amount of time that they are likely to be in communications range. Traffic load can be split between multiple access points. Client devices can also act as access points with respect to other devices allowing for a dense mesh network to be formed.

A communication management system (such as hardware and/or executed software) receives performance information indicating wireless connectivity performance between a communication device and a set of candidate wireless access points. The communication device is initially in communication with a first wireless access point over a wireless link. Based on the performance information, the communication management system selects a candidate wireless access point from the set in which to performance a handoff. The communication management hardware the notifies the communication device to handoff the wireless link from the first wireless access point to the selected candidate wireless access point.

Disclosed are a network access method and apparatus, a resource maintenance method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. The network access method includes receiving the system message of a first cell sent by a second node, where the system message of the first cell includes the configuration information of a second cell; and accessing the second cell based on the configuration information of the second cell.

A system and a method of connecting devices via a Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) network are provided. The method of communication-connecting an external device to an Access Point (AP) via a Wi-Fi network is performed by a device and includes operations of receiving device information of the external device from the external device that operates in an AP mode, accessing the external device that operates in the AP mode, by using the device information, and providing connection information relating to the AP to the external device, and wherein, when the connection information is provided to the external device, the external device terminates operating in the AP mode, and the external device then accesses the AP based on the connection information.

A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network determines a snapshot value of a serving link signal received quality while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements. Responsive to detecting, while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements, that signal received quality of a serving link has dropped by at least a threshold amount below the snapshot value, the UE performs a neighbor link measurement.

A wireless access method includes: carrying out wireless signal measurement on candidate host base stations to obtain a measurement result, an NR wireless backhaul base station communicates with each candidate host base station by means of an air interface, and the each candidate host base station connects to a macro base station by means of a wired backhaul link; selecting, according to the measurement result, at least one target host base station among the candidate host base stations; and sending an access request to the each target base station, the access request being used to request the each target host base station to allocate radio resources for the NR wireless backhaul base station.
