Systems (100) and methods (800) for communicating information. The methods comprise: storing message sets in Communication Devices (“CDs”) so as to be respectively associated with speaker information; performing operations, by a first CD, to capture an audio message spoken by an individual and to convert the audio message into a message audio file; comparing the message audio file to each reference audio file in the message sets to determine whether one of the reference audio files matches the message audio file by a certain amount; converting the audio message into a text message when a determination is made that a reference audio file does match the message audio file by a certain amount; generating a secure text message by appending the speaker information that is associated with the matching reference audio file to the text message, or by appending other information to the text message; transmitting the secure text message.

A method for wireless communication is presented. The method includes receiving pre-configured uplink resource (PUR) configuration information including one or more least significant bits (LSBs) of a hyper system frame number (H-SFN). The method also includes determining a PUR start time based on the H-SFN identified by the one or more LSBs. The method further includes transmitting data to a base station on a PUR identified in the PUR configuration information at the PUR start time.

An apparatus comprising means for performing: receiving, while connected to a first cell, preparation information for preparing the apparatus for a conditional handover of the apparatus to at least one other cell; receiving, from the first cell, a message, wherein the message causes the apparatus to transition from a connected state to an inactive state; receiving, from the first cell, information of a release condition; when it is determined that the release condition is met, sending a release indication and releasing the preparation information from the apparatus.

Embodiments of a system and method for providing DRX enhancements in LTE systems are generally described herein. In some embodiments, a system control module is provided for controlling communications via a communications interface. A processor is coupled to the system control module and is arranged to implement an inactivity timer and an on-duration timer for determining an active time for monitoring subframes on the physical downlink control channel for control signals, the processor further monitoring subframes after the active time.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may connect to a set of source cell groups (CGs). The UE may receive a target cell group setup information, the target cell group setup information being associated with a set of target CGs. The UE may connect to the set of target CGs based at least in part on the target cell group setup information during a handover from the set of source CGs to the set of target CGs. The UE may disconnect from the set of source CGs after connecting to the set of target CGs. Numerous other aspects are provided.
