Embodiments of the present disclosure describe devices, methods, computer-readable media and systems configurations for transmission point indication in a coordinated multipoint (CoMP) system. A user equipment (UE) may receive common reference signal (CRS) parameters associated with individual base stations of a CoMP measurement set. The UE may also receive a transmission point index corresponding to a first base station of the CoMP measurement set that is scheduled for communications with the UE. A mapping module of the UE may produce a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) mapping pattern based on the CRS parameters associated with the scheduled base station.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for feeder link data transport are provided. For example, baseband in-phase and quadrature (IQ) data may be processed at the transmitter and receiver of the feeder link. The orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) waveform used in a beam may be modified for transmission over the feeder link. For example, the waveform may have a wider subcarrier spacing (SCS) and may fill an enlarged bandwidth than otherwise with a feeder link.

A transmission includes an input shaft coupled to a prime mover, a countershaft, main shaft, and an output shaft, with gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. A shift actuator selectively couples the input shaft to the main shaft by rotatably coupling gears between the countershaft and the main shaft. The shift actuator is mounted on an exterior wall of a housing including the countershaft and the main shaft. An integrated actuator housing includes a single external power access for the shift actuator. A controller interprets controls the shift actuator with actuating and opposing pulses, and interprets a shaft displacement angle, determines if the transmission is in an imminent zero or zero torque region, and performs a transmission operation in response to the transmission in the imminent zero or zero torque region.

Embodiments of the present disclosure describe techniques and configurations for triggering transmission of data payloads in a wireless communication network. An apparatus may include one or more computer-readable media having instructions and one or more processors coupled with the one or more computer-readable media and configured to execute the instructions to implement an interworking function (IWF) to receive, from a Machine Type Communication (MTC) server, a trigger request to trigger sending of a data payload over a wireless communication network, the data payload being smaller than a preconfigured threshold, and send, in response to the trigger request over a reference point to a module including a Mobility Management Entity (MME) or a Serving GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) Support Node (SGSN), a trigger notification to trigger sending of the data payload over the wireless communication network.

Embodiments of this application provide a time synchronization method and apparatus, a computer-readable medium, and an electronic device. The time synchronization method includes: receiving a triggering delivery service request message transmitted by an application function (AF) entity, the triggering delivery service request message including an identifier of a target user equipment and a time sensitive network (TSN) trigger container, the TSN trigger container being used for indicating a TSN time synchronization trigger condition; and transmitting a submission triggering message to a short message service-service center (SMS-SC), the submission triggering message being used for requesting the SMS-SC to transmit a short message including the TSN trigger container to the target user equipment, to enable the target user equipment to perform a TSN time synchronization operation based on the TSN trigger container.

A network device synchronization method is provided. In various embodiments, a first SSM and a second SSM are received. The first SSM carries a first SSM code indicating a quality level of a first clock source and a first eSSM code indicating the quality level of the first clock source, the second SSM carries a second SSM code indicating a quality level of a second clock source. The second SSM lacks an eSSM code indicating the quality level of the second clock source, and a value of the first SSM code is equal to a value of the second SSM code. When a value of the first eSSM code is less than 0xFF, calibrating a frequency of the network device based on a timing signal of the first clock source.

A time synchronization process may include receiving a time sensitive network (TSN) configuration creation request that includes an identifier of a target user equipment (UE) and a trigger condition. The request is transmitted by an application function entity (AF). A TSN authorization request is transmitted to a unified data management entity (UDM) and is used for requesting the UDM to transmit, after confirming authorization, a TSN activation request to an access and mobility management function entity (AMF) registered by the target UE. Control signaling used for performing a TSN time synchronization operation is transmitted to the target UE.

Time synchronization between communication devices may be necessary for proper communications. The time synchronization may include determining a first target Session Management Function of a first terminal based on first target Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information, a first target Data Network Name, first identity information, and first type indication information of a first time-sensitive network grandmaster clock by using a Network Repository Function. A first target label information may be obtained from a Unified Data Manager based on the first target Single Network Slice Selection Assistance Information, the first target Data Network Name, the first identity information, and the first type indication information of the first time-sensitive network grandmaster clock.
