A base station allocates unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) preambles for use by UAV user equipment (UE) devices that are different from terrestrial preambles allocated for terrestrial UE devices. The UAV preambles can be allocated to different subscription levels, such that each UAV UE device can only use UAV preambles associated with the UAV UE device's subscription level. The UAV UE device transmits random access request message using the selected UAV preamble and the base station responds with a random access response message indicating whether access is granted to the UAV UE device. The base station can dynamically manage access to the base station by limiting the subscription levels that are associated with the UAV preambles.

This application provides a transmission method, a terminal device, and a network device. The transmission method includes: sending, by a terminal device, a second message to a network device after receiving a first message that is sent by the network device and that is used to instruct to activate a secondary carrier cell, where the second message is used to indicate a preset time; and receiving, by the terminal device, a third message that is sent by the network device based on the preset time, where the third message is used to instruct to trigger resynchronization of the secondary carrier cell. The transmission method in this application helps quickly reduce a time for triggering resynchronization of an uplink secondary carrier cell, and improve an uplink throughput.

Systems and methods are provided for managing multiple wireless links, e.g., between base stations and wireless headsets. Each wireless link communicates data packets (e.g., audio data packets) according to a wireless protocol (e.g., Bluetooth) defining a series of connection intervals having a defined number of frames (e.g., Bluetooth eSCO intervals including 6 or 12 frames per interval). A controller stores interval segmentation data specifying a first interval segment (including a first subset of frames) allocated to original transmissions of packets and at least one additional interval segment (including additional subsets of frames) allocated to retransmissions of failed packets. The controller uses the interval segmentation data to manage timing for packet transmissions and retransmissions by the various wireless devices, such that each device (a) sends transmissions only during the first interval segment and (b) sends retransmissions only during the additional interval segment(s), to thereby reduce interference between the various wireless links.

Provided is a configuration method and device for timing advance information. The method comprises: a first transmission node indicates, through a number I of signaling, timing advance information corresponding to a number N of transmission links from a second transmission node to a number M of first transmission nodes, where I, M and N are all integers greater than or equal to 1.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit a request message to a base station while operating in an idle mode. The base station may generate, in response to the request message, a response message including a random access preamble index corresponding to the received request message. In some cases, the base station may determine a radio network temporary identifier (RNTI) based on the random access preamble index and scramble a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) of the response message with the RNTI. In some examples, the random access preamble index may be included in a payload of the response message. The UE may monitor a physical downlink control channel for the response message to the request message and receive the response message on the physical downlink control channel.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a base station may determine a minimum time gap for a set of uplink transmissions in a set of timing advance groups; and schedule a first uplink transmission, of the set of uplink transmissions, in a first timing advance group, of the set of timing advance groups, and a second uplink transmission, of the set of uplink transmissions, in a second timing advance group, of the set of timing advance groups, with at least the minimum time gap between the first uplink transmission and the second uplink transmission. Numerous other aspects are provided.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for dynamically adjusting the access link timing alignment at the integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node. Specifically, features of the present disclosure provide techniques for signaling to one or more child nodes the timing advance and timing offset values associated with each operational mode of the IAB node that may impact the access link timing for the child node (for uplink and/or downlink transmissions). Additionally or alternatively, aspects of the present disclosure identify whether a gap period may be included in order to ensure that the child node has sufficient time to transition between states during the transition period (e.g., from downlink to uplink) when the IAB node dynamically adjusts the access link timing.

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. The present invention provides a method for transmitting a scheduling request (SR) in a wireless communication system. A SR transmission method for a terminal according to the present invention includes, receiving first information and second information for SR configuration, transmitting the SR if a SR timer based on the first information and the second information is expired, and wherein the first information comprises SR configuration information for a primary cell and a secondary cell, and wherein the second information is an integer value for configuring the SR timer.

The invention proposes a method, in a carrier aggregation transmission-based radio communication network, of controlling uplink transmission of a user equipment over a plurality of secondary cells in a group of secondary cells, the user equipment being configured with a group of primary cells and at least one group of secondary cells, and the group of secondary cells belonging to the at least one group of secondary cells, wherein in the event that the group of primary cells and the at least one group of secondary cells each is configured with a time alignment timer, the method comprises the steps of: terminating the uplink transmission of the user equipment over at least one activated secondary cell in the group of secondary cells when the time alignment timer of the group of primary cells expires; in the event that the group of primary cells and the at least one group of secondary cells are configured with a common time alignment timer, the method comprises the steps of: determining whether a time alignment value of the group of secondary cells is valid when the time alignment timer is in operation; and if not, terminating the uplink transmission of the user equipment over the at least one activated secondary cell in the group of secondary cells and transmitting a notification message to a base station.
