METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SELECTING A COMMUNICATION INTERFACE
The disclosure is related to a method and a system for selecting a communication interface. The method is applicable to a local area network including multiple access points. A main access point is first selected. The main access point acquires every access point's information within a local area network. The information relates to the access points that are in an idle state or not performing a critical task. A target antenna can be selected for performing a specific function. For example, the target antenna can be used to scan for the channels specified in dynamic frequency selection. After that, the scan result may result in changing channels. Through the above mechanism, the resources in every AP within the LAN can be adequately used, and the performance of wireless communication can be effectively improved.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR HANDLING MEASUREMENT IN A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
A method and apparatus are disclosed for handling measurement in a wireless communication system. In one embodiment, the method includes the UE measuring a signal of a cell to derive information related to beamforming. The method further includes the UE providing the information to a network node, wherein the information comprises at least an average or a summation of measurement results for a number of qualified beams of the cell, and wherein the number of qualified beams to derive the average or the summation is limited by a first threshold.
TECHNIQUES FOR EMPLOYING ANTENNA SWITCHED DIVERSITY IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS
Aspects described herein relate to using antenna-switched diversity (ASDIV) in wireless communications. A serving node can be communicated with using a serving radio access technology (RAT) and based on an ASDIV configuration, wherein the ASDIV configuration defines an antenna switching configuration including a state of one or more switches in an ASDIV switch group for switching between one or more antennas for the communicating based on sensing one or more parameters of the communicating. It can be determined whether a target RAT supports operating using a same ASDIV switch group as the serving RAT. A target node can be communicated with using the target RAT and based on the ASDIV configuration where the target RAT operates using the same ASDIV switch group as the serving RAT.

METHOD FOR PERFORMING HANDOVER, USER EQUIPMENT, AND RADIO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
A mobile station in a wireless communication network. The mobile station includes a radio communication that transmits an access request message to a base station via a first communication resource, and receives a timing adjustment in response to the access request message from the base station. The mobile station also includes an adjustment value storage unit that stores the timing adjustment, and a control unit that adjusts access timing corresponding to a second communication resource based on the timing adjustment value stored in the adjustment value storage unit. The radio communication unit then communicates with the base station via the first communication resource and the second communication resource.
ESTABLISHMENT OF CONNECTION TO THE INTERNET IN CELLULAR NETWORK
Some demonstrative embodiments include devices, systems and/or methods to establish a connection to the Internet via a local gateway (L-GW) function for a LIPA or a SIPTO@LN. The establishment of the connection to the Internet may be performed, for example, by at least one of an E-RAB SETUP procedure, an INITIAL CONTEXT SETUP procedure, an INITIAL UE MESSAGE procedure or an UPLINK NAS TRANSPORT procedure.
Selecting target access nodes based on uplink split mode capability
Methods and systems for preventing or delaying handovers to target access nodes that are not configured to provide uplink split mode, include determining that an uplink usage requirement or a power headroom of a wireless device meets a threshold, and preventing handovers of the wireless device to access nodes that are not capable of utilizing uplink split mode. Access nodes capable of utilizing uplink split mode are configured to receive uplink data via at least two different radio access technologies simultaneously, including 4G LTE and 5G NR.
