The present specification provides a method for performing an integrated access and backhaul (IAB) operation performed by a node in a wireless communication system, and an apparatus therefor, the method comprising: performing an initial access operation with another node; receiving, from the other node, at least one piece of timing advance (TA) information or T delta information, wherein downlink transmission timing of the node and uplink transmission timing of the node are aligned or determined on the basis of the at least one piece of TA information or T_delta information; and performing the IAB operation on the basis of the downlink transmission timing and the uplink transmission timing.

This application provides a link state switching method and a communications device. The method includes: switching between a first link state and a second link state based on a first guard period, where the first link state and the second link state are link states of an integrated access backhaul IAB node in different transmission modes.

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for ephemeris signaling in wireless networks.

A UE may include IoT NTN device, and the UE may acquire the GNSS location to perform the time/frequency pre-compensation. A NAS layer of the UE may initiate a connection request procedure based on the GNSS fix procedure at one or more lower layer of the UE. A network may transmit a paging request to the UE, and manage a paging response timer based on the GNSS fix procedure at the UE.

A method and a user equipment (UE) for timing alignment is provided. The method includes maintaining a Timing Advance (TA) value as a first TA value; receiving, from a Base Station (BS), a TA command during a Random Access (RA) procedure; applying the TA command to set the TA value to a second TA value included in the TA command in a case that a first timing alignment timer is not running; determining whether a contention resolution for the RA procedure is successful; and when the contention resolution is not successful, setting the TA value to the first TA value in a case that a Configured Grant-based Small Data Transmission (CG-SDT) procedure is ongoing.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for using multiple timing advances for simultaneous uplink reception, for example, using multiple antennas, beams, and/or antenna panels. A method that may be performed by a user equipment (UE) includes configuring a plurality of timing advances (TAs) for a plurality of uplink transmissions using a plurality of antennas. The UE transmits the plurality of uplink transmissions to a base station (BS) using the plurality of antennas based on the plurality of timing advances. A method that may be performed by a BS includes receiving a plurality of uplink transmissions from a UE and transmitting timing information to the UE in a message, the timing information based on when each of the plurality of uplink transmissions was received at the BS.

An object of the present disclosure is to provide a management apparatus, a communication apparatus, a system, a method, and a program capable of providing a service that meets a targeted KPI. A management apparatus according to the present disclosure includes: KPI management means for acquiring a target Key Performance Indicator (KPI) of a service that is provided to a communication terminal by a business operator; operation state acquisition means for acquiring element data regarding a component necessary for the service, the element data indicating a feature of a control system of the service; KPI prediction means for calculating a predicted KPI which is a predicted value of the KPI of the service based on the element data; and communication performance calculation means for, when the KPI is defined so that a value becomes lower as performance becomes better, detecting the component in which the predicted KPI is equal to or greater than the target KPI.

The present disclosure relates to methods, systems and devices for use in a wireless terminal includes transmitting, to a wireless network node, a preamble comprising a plurality of parts, wherein each of the plurality of parts comprises at least one sub-preamble and the sub-preambles in the plurality of parts are generated based on a plurality of roots.

A method for determining a TA and a terminal device are provided. The method comprises operations as follows. A terminal device calculates a first TA value according to position information of the terminal device and ephemeris information of a satellite. The terminal device determines a second TA value according to the first TA value and a first adjustment value. The second TA value is used by the terminal device to perform uplink synchronization.

Various embodiments provide systems and methods for supporting synchronized delivery of packets of different type media streams of a service. Various embodiments enable wireless device and/or network assistance of packet synchronization in downlink (DL) and/or uplink (UL) transmissions.
