A user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry configuring the UE for Dual Connectivity (DC) with a Master Node-B (MN) and a Secondary Node-B (SN). The processing circuitry is to decode connection reconfiguration information received from the MN. The connection reconfiguration information includes signaling radio bearer type 3 (SRB3) configuration information. The SRB3 configuration information originating from the SN and configuring a SRB3, where the SRB3 is for direct communication between the UE and the SN. At least one of a radio resource control (RRC) reconfiguration completion message or a measurement report message is encoded for transmission to the SN.

Provided is a method for indicating a resource, including: indicating, in a configured time-frequency resource region, a time-frequency resource of a service with first transmission duration pre-empted by a service with second transmission duration, by physical layer signaling, where the first transmission duration is larger than the second transmission duration. An apparatus for indicating a resource and a storage medium are further disclosed herein.

Various solutions for handling multiple active configurations of configured grant with respect to user equipment and network apparatus in mobile communications are described. An apparatus may determine whether multiple active configurations of a configured grant corresponding to a bandwidth part of a serving cell are configured. The apparatus may apply a restriction on an initial transmission of a transport block (TB) in an event that the multiple active configurations of the configured grant are configured. The apparatus may perform the initial transmission of the TB according to the restriction.

Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for location reporting. A mobility management node determines to establish a connection between the mobility management node and a terminal device for which location reporting is required. The mobility management node sends, to a base station, a request for establishing the connection. The request is configured to request the base station to report location information of the terminal device.

During operation, an electronic device may emulate client functionality associated with a virtual client in a wireless network, where emulating the client functionality includes generating a first frame that is compatible with a wireless communication protocol and is associated with fictious wireless communication with the virtual client. Then, the electronic device may provide, to a computer, a second frame that includes at least a portion of the first frame, where the second frame is compatible with a wired communication protocol. Next, the electronic device may receive, from the computer, a response message based at least in part on the first frame, where the response message includes information associated with a service provided by the computer. Moreover, the electronic device may assess the service based at least in part on the information and may selectively perform the remedial action based at least in part on the assessment.

Provided are a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission method, a terminal device and a network device. When a slot configured by a network device through high-layer signaling does not include any time-domain resource available for SRS transmission or time-domain resources therein are not adequate, a terminal device may determine a slot for SRS transmission, thereby finding a proper uplink resource for sending an SRS to further ensure the uplink transmission performance. The method includes that: a terminal device receives downlink control information (DCI) from a network device, the DCI including SRS triggering signaling and the SRS triggering signaling indicating SRS transmission on at least one SRS resource set; and the terminal device transmits an SRS on a target SRS resource in the at least one SRS resource set in a slot meeting a first preset condition and after K slots from reception of the DCI, K being a nonnegative integer.
