A method, performed by a first communication device, for transmitting a wireless local area network (WLAN) packet to a WLAN network interface device of a second communication device is described. The second communication device includes a separate wakeup radio (WUR) coupled to the WLAN network interface device. The WLAN packet is generated at the first communication device to include a WUR identifier associated with a neighbor communication device. The WUR identifier is usable by the WUR of the second communication device to identify WUR packets transmitted by the neighbor communication device. The neighbor communication device is different from the first communication device. The WLAN packet is transmitted by the first communication device to the WLAN network interface device of the second communication device.

A method of enhanced discontinuous reception (DRX) operation for additional power saving is proposed. A UE is allowed to not restart the DRX inactivity timer if there is no uplink data available to transmit, even when the UE receives a dynamic uplink grant. The UE thus can terminate the DRX active time and go to sleep earlier when the inactivity timer expires. The UE can send a sync message to inform the gNB of “not restarting the inactivity timer”, or the UE can send information for the gNB to know when the DRX active time will be terminated. Furthermore, the UE is allowed to request for dynamic DRX active time termination, e.g., to dynamically request for terminating the DRX active time earlier by sending a request or a notification to the network.

A method and an apparatus for maintenance of a bandwidth part. The method and apparatus resolve an issue of the prior art in which expiration of a bandwidth part deactivation timer during a random access process changes the bandwidth part to a default bandwidth part, such that data cannot be transmitted on an optimal bandwidth part, and may even cause an interruption of an ongoing data transmission, while also affecting an ongoing random access process. In embodiments of the present invention, a terminal keeps a current active bandwidth part unchanged during a random access process, and performs a restart operation of a bandwidth part deactivation timer after the random access process is successfully completed, such that a situation where a bandwidth part changes to a default bandwidth part does not occur during the random access process, thereby reducing interruption to ongoing data transmissions and reducing the impact on ongoing random access processes.

A lighting device (31) is configured to determine a group of service-providing devices (41-44) and determine a schedule for the service-providing devices in the group. The group (101) comprises at least two service-providing devices capable of performing a similar or a same lighting service. The schedule indicates for each service-providing device of the group in which time period the service-providing device is able to receive messages such that at least one device of the determined group of service-providing devices is able to receive messages. The lighting device is configured to transmit the schedule to the service-providing devices.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A base station may determine a configuration including a set of signature waveforms for a micro-sleep mode of operation in shared spectrum, and may transmit the configuration to at least one user equipment (UE) served by the base station. Additionally, a UE may receive a configuration including a set of signature waveforms for a micro-sleep mode of operation in shared spectrum. The UE may detect at least one signature waveform of the set of signature waveforms, and in response to detecting the at least one signature waveform, operate in the micro-sleep mode for a period of time.

Techniques for dynamically adjusting Connected Mode Discontinuous Reception (CDRX) parameters are discussed herein. For example, a base station may receive information associated with downlink data to be sent to a user equipment (UE) and/or information associated with the UE itself. The base station may adjust CDRX parameters to be implemented on the UE based on the received information in order to maximize performance of the UE. In some examples, the base station may adjust CDRX parameters based on a traffic type (e.g., voice traffic, video traffic, data traffic, etc.) associated with the downlink data, UE state parameters associated with the UE, and/or Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) data associated with the UE.

Altitude based device management is provided herein. A method can comprise transmitting, by a mobile device comprising a processor, a signaling message to a network device of a wireless network. The signaling message can comprise first data indicating a device type of the mobile device and second data indicating a distance measurement of the mobile device with respect to a reference point. The method can also comprise implementing, by the mobile device, a first instruction related to a power setting and a second instruction related to an operating parameter. The first instruction and the second instruction can be received from the network device and can be based on the device type of the mobile device and the distance measurement of the mobile device.
