The method includes transmitting, to a E2 node, an RIC control request message including information on a control action identity (ID), and receiving, from the E2 node, an RIC control acknowledge message or an RIC control failure message in response to the RIC control request message, wherein the RIC control acknowledge message or the RIC control failure message includes information on an RIC control outcome, wherein the information on the RIC control outcome includes at least one set of RAN parameter, wherein each of the at least one set of RAN parameter includes a RAN parameter ID and a RAN parameter value.

A 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate after a 4th generation (4G) communication system such as long-term evolution (LTE). A method may be performed by an intelligent controller may, and include obtaining first information related to user equipment (UE) identity of an open (O)-RAN from an E2 node, obtaining second information related to the UE identity from a network exposure function (NEF) of a 5th generation (5G) core network (5GC), generating an A1 policy message through comparison based on the first information and the second information, and transmitting the A1 policy message to a near-real time (RT) radio access network (RAN) intelligent controller (RIC) via an A1 interface, the first information may include a general public subscription identifier (GPSI), an access and mobility management function (AMF) UE NGAP ID related to the 5GC and a globally unique AMF ID (GUAMI) related to the 5GC, and the second information may include an AMF UE NGAP ID related to the 5GC and a GUAMI related to the 5GC.

The present invention relates to a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting higher data transmission rate compared to a beyond 4G communication system such as LTE. A method for using resources by an electronic device in a wireless mobile communication system can comprise the steps of: setting dedicated wireless access configuration for each service; detecting a first service request; and, on the basis of the setting, transmitting and receiving a signal using a dedicated wireless access configuration corresponding to the first service. The present invention is not limited to the embodiment and can pertain to other embodiments.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A central unit (CU) function of a base station may identify a first set of user equipment (UE) to communicate via sidelink communications with a distributed unit associated with the central unit. The CU function may determine, based at least in part on the distributed unit being an integrated access and backhaul provider to the first set of UE, a first configuration for the distributed unit to use for sidelink communications with the first set of UE, the first configuration different than a second configuration for one or more nodes associated with the base station to use for sidelink communications with a second set of UE in communication with the base station. The CU function may provide an indication of the first configuration to the distributed unit.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station (e.g., a central unit (CU) function of the base station) may select, from a set of distributed units (DUs) associated with the CU, a DU of an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) node to control sidelink communications for a user equipment (UE). The base station may determine a configuration of sidelink parameters for the sidelink communications with the UE, the sidelink parameters comprising an identification of the selected DU. The base station may transmit, to the TAB node performing sidelink communications with the UE, an indication of the configuration of sidelink parameters for the sidelink communications.

One embodiment is directed to a multi-carrier radio point for use in a centralized radio access network (C-RAN). The multi-carrier radio point is configured so that the processing and hardware resources provided by the radio point can be associated with controllers of the C-RAN in a flexible manner. A single multi-carrier radio point can be used with multiple controllers to serve multiple cells, where the processing and hardware resources used for the multiple controllers need not be configured and used in the same way.

An access point (AP) station (STA) (AP STA) may be configured to operate as a multi-AP controller in a multi-AP network. A multi-AP group formation message is encoded for transmission to other APs in the multi-AP network. The multi-AP group formation message is encoded to notify the APs of the formation of an extremely-high throughput (EHT) multi-AP group, to designate whether an AP is a member of an EHT multi-AP group, and whether an AP can take the role of a coordinator AP or coordinated AP within the EHT multi-AP group. For multi-AP joint processing, the AP STA is further configured to encode an AP trigger frame for transmission to the APs in the multi-AP network. The AP trigger frame is to trigger physical layer (PHY) and medium-access control layer (MAC) parameter synchronization. The AP trigger frame is to trigger transmission of aggregated MAC protocol data units (A-MPDUs) by the APs that include MAC parameters and PHY parameters.

Among other things, a communication system comprising at least one remote unit and controller is described. The at least one remote unit wirelessly exchanges radio frequency (RF) signals with mobile devices. Each RF signal comprises information destined for, or originating from, at least one of the mobile devices. The at least two remote units and the controller communicate baseband data corresponding to the information across an intermediate network. The at least two remote units each implement at least some physical layer processing for an air interface used to wirelessly communicate with the subscriber devices. The controller is configured to perform at least some receive signal processing using combined data resulting from combining at least some of the baseband data communicated from more than one of the at least two remote units.
