One disclosure of the present specification provides a method by which a first network node performs communication on the basis of multiple USIMs. The method can comprise: receiving, from UE, a registration request message including MT service configuration information; receiving, from the UE, information informing that the UE leaves a first network including the first network node; receiving, from a second network node, information related to downlink data about the UE; and transmitting a paging message or a failure indication on the basis of the MT service configuration information and the information related to the downlink data.

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.

A method for a terminal receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, may comprise: receiving a specific signal giving an early indication of whether paging DCI will be provided in a PO configured for a paging operation in an idle mode or deactivation mode; and, on the basis of the specific signal, determining whether to skip a paging DCI detection procedure, wherein the specific signal may be a PDCCH signal carrying specific DCI configured for the idle mode or deactivation mode, and even if the specific DCI indicates that the paging DCI will be provided in at least one PO, on the basis that the specific DCI may be connected to a plurality of POs, a terminal may decide to skip the paging DCI detection procedure if the at least one PO in which the paging DCI is provided is not configured in the terminal.

The present application relates to small data transmission (SDT). In an example, SDT is available for transferring information between a UE and a network, where a NAS layer of the UE is in a 5GMM-CONNECTED mode with an RRC inactive indication and an AS layer of the UE is in an RRC_INACTIVE state. To do so, the UE can be pre-configured to classify the information as qualifying for SDT. In addition, resources can be pre-configured for the SDT. For instance, the UE can maintain a set of radio bearers in a suspended state. While the NAS layer is in the 5GMM-CONNECTED mode with the inactive indication and the AS layer is in the RRC_INACTIVE state, one or more of the pre-configured resources can be used to transmit the information between the UE and the network.

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.

Methods, computer programs products, and apparatuses for RS availability indication are provided. An example method at a UE may include receiving, from a base station, a PEI comprising a first availability indication for a first set of RS resources in one or more RS occasions. The example method may further include receiving, from the base station, a paging PDCCH comprising a second availability indication for a second set of RS resources in the one or more RS occasions. The example method may further include receiving, from the base station, at least one of the first set of RS resources or the second set of RS resources.

A system includes a user equipment (UE) traveling at least at a predetermined velocity. The UE is in RRC_INACTIVE state since time T. The system further includes at least a first base station and a second base station. The first base station receives an RRC_INACTIVE state message from the UE. The RRC_INACTIVE state message includes a location and a velocity of the UE, and a time-lapse, which is an elapsed duration since T. In response to a paging message from a core network, the first base station predicts a location of the UE. In response to the UE being within range of the first base station, the first base station sends the paging message to the UE. In response to the UE being within range of the second base station, the first base station sends a request to the second base station to send the paging message to the UE.

An access node of the cellular network determines a correlation of an identifier of a user equipment with an entry of a Pending Interest Table maintained by an Information Centric Networking node. The Pending Interest Table comprises an entry for each data object having a pending Information Centric Networking request at the Information Centric Networking node. Based on the correlation, the access node controls a connection of the user equipment with the cellular network. This may involve deciding whether to release the user equipment to idle mode or paging of the user equipment.

In example implementations, a mobile device is provided. The mobile device includes a button input, a wireless communication interface, a memory, and a processor. The input is to initiate a found device alert application from a locked screen of the mobile device. The wireless communication interface is to send a found device alert notification. The memory is to store user defined third-party contact information and the found device alert application. The processor is to execute the found device alert application in response to a signal generated by the input. The processor is to generate the found device alert notification and cause the wireless communication interface to transmit the found device alert notification to a location indicated by the third-party contact information.

In an electronic device and an operation method thereof, the electronic device may include: a memory; communication circuitry configured to transmit and receive data via a node; and a communication processor, wherein the communication processor may be configured to: identify a first time of receiving a paging message and a second time of receiving a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block; determine, based on the first time and the second time satisfying a specified condition, the activation time of the communication circuitry based on the reception time of the paging message; receive a paging message; temporarily store the received paging message in the memory; and process the stored paging message based on an SS/PBCH block received after reception of the paging message.
