This application provides a data transmission method and apparatus. The method includes: receiving downlink data, where the downlink data is used to be sent to a terminal device; receiving first information from a second network device, where the first information is used to determine a time point for sending the downlink data to the second network device; and sending the downlink data to the second network device based on the first information, to avoid directly sending the downlink data to the second network device after receiving the downlink data, thereby relieving storage burden of the second network device.

Method and apparatus for downlink reception with C-WUS operation. The apparatus receives a C-WUS configuration configuring the UE to activate at least one cell of a base station from an inactive mode. The apparatus monitors for at least a WUS occasion from the at least one cell of the base station in the inactive mode. At least one downlink resource occasion is associated with the at least one cell in the inactive mode. The apparatus receives, from the base station, an active time indication indicating an active time for the at least one cell of the base station

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may determine to operate in accordance with an energy saving mode in which the base station only transmits remaining minimum system information (RMSI) on-demand or reduces transmission of RMSI with respect to when the base station is operating outside of the energy saving mode. A user equipment (UE) may detect the base station that is operating in an energy saving mode. The UE may transmit a request for the base station to transmit the RMSI to the UE, where the UE may transmit the request to the energy saving base station or to a serving base station of the UE. The UE may receive, from the base station operating in the energy saving mode and responsive to the request, a message including the remaining minimum system information.

Disclosed is a method comprising obtaining historical data from a plurality of access nodes comprised in a network, determining, for at least one of the plurality of access nodes, a region comprising a set of values for threshold pairs that comprise minimum and maximum threshold pairs, determining, from the region, one threshold pair, wherein the threshold pair defines pre-determined thresholds for determining if a cell is to be switched on or switched off, providing the threshold pair to the network for deployment, and collecting data regarding at least one key performance indicator from the plurality of access nodes.

This disclosure relates to techniques for reducing blind decoding of downlink control channels in a wireless communication system. The techniques may include determining whether a control channel pilot signal, such as a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) is present within a set of control carrier entities, and accordingly determining whether the downlink control channel is present within the set of control channel elements. In this manner, a number of candidates for blind decoding may be reduced.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A wireless communications system may support one or more communication devices (e.g., user equipment (UE)) operating according to an aperiodic (e.g., and dynamic) discontinuous reception (DRX) mode. For example, a UE may communicate with a device in the wireless communications system (e.g., a base station, another UE) according to a periodic DRX mode. In response to a transition indication, the UE may dynamically transition to the aperiodic DRX mode and may operate according to the aperiodic DRX mode for a duration. To operate according to the aperiodic DRX mode, the UE may be configured to disable a first set of communication operations for the duration, perform a second set of communication operations during the duration, or a combination thereof (e.g., across component carriers of a carrier group, across component carriers of a DRX group).

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for resuming communications with a non-terrestrial network in discontinuous coverage. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes determining that the UE is or will be in an out-of-coverage state with a non-terrestrial network (NTN) for a first duration; entering a power saving state in response to the determination; exiting the power saving state when the UE expects to be in an in-coverage state with the NTN; and taking one or more actions to resume communications with the NTN.

A safety system for the localization of at least one spatially variable object having at least one control and evaluation unit, having at least one radio location system, having at least one spatially resolving sensor for the detection of an object in a detection zone of the spatially resolving sensor, wherein the radio location system has at least three arranged radio stations, wherein at least one radio transponder is arranged at the object, wherein position data of the radio transponder and thus position data of the object can be determined by means of the radio location system, wherein the position data can be transmitted from the radio station of the radio location system to the control and evaluation unit, wherein the control and evaluation unit is configured to cyclically detect the position data of the radio transponder and information on the object in the detection zone can be determined by means of the spatially resolving sensor.

A smart ring includes a battery, memory, processing circuitry, a plurality of sensors, a plurality of antennas, and a battery, each coupled to one another and all enclosed in a casing, wherein the processing circuitry is configured to conserve the battery by any of sending data to the cloud service when an application is open on the user device, sending data to the cloud service when a threshold is crossed, waking up processing or communicating when there is a change in motion detected by the accelerometer.

Methods and apparatuses for facilitating the switching of an established target wake time (TWT) schedule from one link to another link of a multi-link device (MLD) in a wireless local area network. The apparatuses include an access point (AP) MLD comprising APs and a processor operably coupled to the APs. Each AP comprises a transceiver configured to form a link with a corresponding station (STA) affiliated with a non-AP MLD. The processor is configured to negotiate with the non-AP MLD via one of the APs to establish a TWT schedule for communications on a first one of the links, receive, from the non-AP MLD via one of the APs, a request to transfer the TWT schedule from the first link to a second one of the links, and in response to the request, establish the TWT schedule for communications on the second link.
