The embodiments herein relate to a user equipment (121) and a method performed by the UE (121) for performing preamble transmissions, on a random access channel, to a network node (110). The method comprising: determining (801) a starting subframe for the preamble transmissions based on at least a system frame number (SFN), a number of times (R) the preamble transmissions is to be repeated and a random access channel configuration, and transmitting (802), to the network node (121) the preamble repeatedly starting in the determined starting subframe. The embodiments herein also relate to a network node (110) and a method performed by the network node (110).

An access point generates a beacon frame that carries a trigger frame information element comprising sending information of a trigger frame for indicating a sending period of the trigger frame; and sends the beacon frame. In this case, the station switches to an active state, and receives the trigger frame by listening to the channel, and the station performs uplink transmission according to indication of the trigger frame after receiving the trigger frame. In this way, when signaling overheads are not increased and reliability is ensured, a station can learn of a sending time of a trigger frame, and the station remains in a receiving state in an appropriate period of time.

A device may receive threshold data identifying threshold ranges, and may receive, from a first access point of multiple access points, first network data identifying first quality measurement indicators associated with a first link. The device may determine whether a first quality of the first link is good, fair, or poor based on comparing the first network data and the threshold data, and may provide, to the first access point and when the first quality is determined to be poor, a request for second network data identifying second quality measurement indicators associated with multiple links between the device and the multiple access points. The device may receive, from the first access point, the second network data, and may select one of the multiple access points based on the second network data. The device may utilize a link associated with the one of the multiple access points to receive video data.

A user equipment (UE) may receive, during release from a radio access network (RAN), resource information associated with attaching to the RAN, wherein the resource information is received based on the device being authenticated. The UE may store the resource information in a data structure associated with the UE, and may receive, when the UE includes a payload of data packets to transmit to the RAN, a signal from the RAN. The UE may determine, based on the signal, whether the RAN is a same RAN that provided the resource information, and may determine whether a strength of the signal from the RAN satisfies a threshold when the RAN is the same RAN that provided the resource information. The UE may attach to the RAN when the strength of the signal satisfies the threshold, and may provide the payload to the RAN via a random access channel of the RAN.

Systems and methods are disclosed herein that relate to multiple candidate starting points for a transmit burst in unlicensed spectrum. In some embodiments, a method of operation of a radio access node for performing a transmit burst in an unlicensed spectrum comprises transmitting a transmit burst in an unlicensed spectrum, wherein the transmit burst spans multiple subframes/slots and the transmitting of the transmit burst starts at one of a plurality of candidate starting points defined in at least a first subframe/slot of the transmit burst that occurs after successful completion of a Listen-Before-Talk (LBT) procedure for the transmit burst. In this manner, a radio access node (e.g., an enhanced or evolved Node B (eNB) in Long Term Evolution (LTE)) has flexibility to transmit a downlink transmit burst starting at different starting positions based on LBT outcome.

Wireless communications are described. A wireless device may be configured to transmit a first signal via a first cell group that may overlap in time with a second signal via a second cell group. The wireless device may adjust a signal transmission power of at least one of the first signal or the second signal. Additionally or alternatively, the wireless device may drop at least one of the first signal or the second signal. Adjusting and/or dropping at least one of the first signal or the second signal may be based on the overlap in time of these signals satisfying a duration threshold and a total power to transmit the first signal and the second signal exceeding a power threshold.

An information transmission method can be applied to a user equipment, and include: when a beam failure recovery procedure is initiated for a first cell, initiating random access to a base station through a second cell, wherein the second cell is the first cell or another cell other than the first cell; and if the number of times random access is initiated without being able to complete the random access reaches a preset number, transmitting to the base station indication information for a problem existing in a cell group where the second cell is located, wherein the indication information is used to indicate that the cause for the problem existing in the cell group is the failure of random access caused by the initiation of the beam failure recovery procedure.

A method for transmitting a physical layer protocol data unit (PPDU) and a device using the same are provided. The device receives a trigger frame for requesting a transmission of a high efficiency (HE) trigger-based (TB) PPDU and transmits the HE TB PPDU. A duration of the HE TB PPDU is calculated based on a duration of the trigger frame.

A wireless device generating a High-Efficiency (HE) PHY Protocol Data Unit (PPDU) for transmission sets a Packet Extension Disambiguity bit of an HE Signal-A (HE-SIG-A) field of the HE PPDU based on respective durations of a packet extension of the HE PPDU and a signal extension of the HE PPDU. The wireless device may determine whether a relationship

[00001]$T_{\mathrm{PE}}+\left(4\times .Math.\frac{\mathrm{TXTIME}-T_{\mathrm{SE}}-20}{4}.Math.-\left(\mathrm{TXTIME}-T_{\mathrm{SE}}-20\right)\right)\ge T_{\mathrm{SYM}}$

is satisfied, where T.sub.PE is the duration of the packet extension, TXTIME is a transmission time of the HE PPDU, T.sub.SE is the duration of the signal extension, and T.sub.SYM is a duration of symbols in a data field of the HE PPDU. The wireless device may set the Packet Extension Disambiguity bit to one when the relationship is satisfied; and to zero when the relationship is not satisfied.
