A method and system for communicating with wireless messaging enabled door locks is disclosed. The method includes advertising availability of the door lock via wireless messaging for a first period of time; triggering a message send event; determining a destination node; connecting to the destination node via Bluetooth; sending the message to the destination node; and entering a low power state for a second period of time, wherein the second period of time is longer than the first period of time; wherein the destination node is chosen from a second door lock or a computing system.

Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to UP transmission for a device in an inactive state. The first device in an inactive state performs a small data transmission procedure between the first device and a second device and transmits an indication to the second device. The indication indicates the following a presence of non-small data transmission data to be transmitted by the first device and information associated with the data. Through this solution, the second device may make a proper and reasonable determination about whether to resume a radio resource control connection with the terminal device and whether to stop the ongoing small data transmission procedure.

Embodiments of the present application provide a method for monitoring a PDCCH, a terminal device, and a network device, capable of reducing power consumption when a terminal device monitors a PDCCH. The method comprises: a terminal device receiving a first message sent by a network device, the first message indicating a first time duration and/or whether to monitor a PDCCH within the first time duration; and the terminal device monitoring the PDCCH according to the first message.

Roaming equipment including: communication means (10) comprising a client module (14) and a repeater module (15) or an extender module, the communication means being configurable in a first mode in which the client module is activated and the repeater module or the extender module is deactivated, such that the roaming equipment is arranged to perform a client function, and in a second mode in which the client module is activated and the repeater module or the extender module is also activated, such that the roaming equipment is arranged to perform both the client function and a repeater function or an extender function; configuration means (16, 43, 44) arranged to configure the communication means in the first mode while the roaming equipment is not receiving the external supply of power, and in a second mode while the roaming equipment is receiving the external supply of power via the power supply base.

A method for resume of multi-connection in an inactive state and a device thereof are provided. The method includes: receiving a connection resume request sent by a terminal, and acquiring configuration of at least one node and/or a measurement report of the at least one node; and according to the configuration of the at least one node and/or the measurement report of the at least one node, adding part or all of the at least one node as a secondary node of the terminal.

A method including: projecting a first wireless signal at a first rate; detecting the first wireless signal indicating that a mobile device is located at a first distance away from a first access control; obtaining a credential from the mobile device; transmitting the credential to a group of access controls; and projecting a second wireless signal at a second rate for a selected time period.

A method and apparatus for power control for distributed wireless communication is disclosed including one or more power control loops associated with a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU). Each power control loop may include open loop power control or closed loop power control. A multi-phase power control method is also disclosed with each phase representing a different time interval and a WTRU sends transmissions at different power levels to different set of node-Bs or relay stations during different phases to optimize communications.

A method and system for providing selective protection of data exchanged between user equipment (UE) and network is disclosed. The selective protection is applied to a packet, a bearer or an access point name for secure exchange of data between the UE and the network. The network decides to apply selective protection based on configuration of network, configuration of UE, load in the network, battery power availability of UE, type of application running on UE. Further, the UE can request for selective protection based on the type of application running on UE and the battery level availability of the UE. The selective protection is either enabled or disabled dynamically by the network. Further, various mechanisms for applying selective protection for each bearer, each packet and each Access Point Name (APN) are disclosed. Additionally, the method for identifying a secured and a non secured bearer has also been disclosed.

A wireless device may transmit assistance information comprising first configuration parameters of a power saving operation of the wireless device. The first configuration parameters may comprise a first maximum number of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) layers for a first cell group and a second maximum number of MIMO layers for a second cell group. The wireless device may receive second configuration parameters. The second configuration parameters may comprises a first number of MIMO layers for a first cell of the first cell group and a second number of MIMO layers for a second cell of the second cell group. The first number may be less than or equal to the first maximum number. The second number may be less than or equal to the second maximum number.

Described is a method and system for latency measurement in communication systems. The method comprises: determining, by a first communication device, a power-management state of a second communication device; transmitting, by the first communication device, one or more packets to the second communication device over a communication link, the one or more packets to be received by the second communication device while in the power-management state; receiving, from the second communication device over the communication link, one or more response packets in response to the one or more packets; and determining a latency of the communication link when the second communication device is in the power-management state based on the one or more packets and the one or more response packets.
