A wireless device sends, to an access and mobility management function (AMF), a request for a multimedia priority service (MPS). The wireless device receives, from the AMF, a connection capability indication indicating network support for a connection of the wireless device for the MPS. The wireless device sends to the AMF, based on the connection capability indication, a request for a packet data unit (PDU) session establishment.

A system described herein may provide for the use of artificial intelligence/machine learning (“AI/ML”) techniques to generate models for various locations or regions (e.g., sectors) associated with one or more radio access networks (“RANs”) of a wireless network. The system may determine Key Performance Indicators (“KPIs”) or other attributes that are of particular relevance or importance for a given sector model, and may determine actions to perform with respect to particular sectors in order to enhance performance according to the KPIs that are of particular relevance to a sector model determined with respect to the particular sectors.

An infrastructure device includes a transceiver, programmed to communicate with a plurality of vehicles, wherein at least one of the vehicles is located within a distance defined from a location of the infrastructure device, and at least one of the vehicles is located outside the distance from the location of the infrastructure device; and a controller, programmed to measure a channel busy ratio (CBR) for communication with the plurality of vehicles, measure a package error rate (PER) for communication with one or more of the vehicles located within the distance, and responsive to the CBR being greater than a CBR threshold, or the PER being greater than a PER threshold, record an interference event into a log.

A terminal device (40) includes a control unit (45). The control unit (45) acquires service information about one or more services provided via a base station apparatus (20). The control unit (45) selects at least one service desired to be used, from among one or more services. The control unit (45) transmits a registration request message including the service selected, to a management device (10A) managing mobility of the terminal device (40) via the base station apparatus (20). The control unit (45) receives, for each service included in the registration request message, reference information about an operating environment of the terminal device (40) requested upon using the service.

A method and apparatus for supporting a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) by a service management and orchestration (SMO) entity in a communication system using an open radio access network (O-RAN) includes receiving, from a first entity, first data, the first entity including at least one of an O-RAN centralized unit (O-CU) and an O-RAN distributed unit (O-DU), the first data including MIMO related information collected from the first entity, determining, based on the first data, a configuration for applying at least one of a single-user-multiple-input-multiple-output (SU-MIMO) and a multi-user-multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-MIMO), and transmitting, to a second entity that controls the first entity in the O-RAN, information on the configuration.

The present disclosure relates to positioning request processing methods, devices, and systems In one example method, a mobility management network element receives a request message, and sends a first message to a location management network element based on the request message, where the first message is used to trigger the location management network element to obtain location information of a first terminal device through user plane positioning. After receiving the first message, the location management network element sends a second message to the first terminal device based on the first message by using a protocol data unit (PDU) session of the first terminal device, where the second message indicates the first terminal device to report positioning data.
