Various embodiments may provide streaming service downlink network assistance and/or uplink network assistance mechanisms in a fifth generation (5G) system (5GS) network via an Application Function (AF) computing device in a 5GS. In some embodiments, a computing device and/or the AF computing device may inform the network about needs for capacity for downlink or uplink traffic. Various embodiments may include sending radio access network (RAN) capacity requests to a network computing device of the 5GS network including a 5G RAN. In some embodiments, the network computing device of the 5GS network may be a computing device that is not part of the 5G RAN. In some embodiments, capacity need messages may be sent directly from user equipment (UE) computing devices to computing devices of the 5G RAN. In some embodiments, capacity information of the RAN may be delivered to an AF computing device via an intermediate network function.

A method for a network entity. The method for controlling a communication between a first communication device and a second communication device includes obtaining positions of communication devices and determining radiation boundary areas in an environment of the communication devices. The method also includes allocating a radiation boundary area of the radiation boundary areas to the first communication device of the communication devices to communicate with the second communication device of the communication devices and transmitting information about the allocated radiation boundary area to the first communication device and/or the second communication device.

The present invention is designed so that it is possible to communicate adequately depending on user terminal-specific capabilities, in a system where wide frequency bands are supported. A user terminal has a receiving section that receives band information, which indicates a prospective downlink (DL) band, which is a band where a DL signal might be allocated, and/or a prospective uplink (UL) band, which is a band where a UL signal might be allocated, and a control section that configures the DL band candidate and/or the UL band candidate in a user terminal-specific manner based on the band information.

Facilitating a transmission power dependent resource reservation protocol in advanced networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a method can comprise defining, by a system comprising a memory and a processor, a resource reservation procedure that associates respective amounts of reserved resources available for the mobile device based on a transmission power level of the mobile device. The method also can comprise selecting, by the system, an amount of reserved resources from the respective amounts of reserved resources available based on the transmission power level of the mobile device.

A slot resource configuration method in wireless communication and a device are provided, to resolve a problem of how to configure a flexible resource included in a new slot structure. In this method, user equipment-specific downlink control information (UE-specific DCI) sent by a base station is received, where the UE-specific DCI indicates a use configuration status of a flexible resource in at least one slot; and the flexible resource is configured according to the use configuration status. This method implements configuration of a flexible resource, so that the flexible resource can be used for communication, thereby improving slot resource usage.

A method, computer program, computer system, and device is provided for determining media sink capabilities. The method may include obtaining, by a media source, a sink resource associated with a media sink, wherein the sink resource indicates a direct address at which a capability described in the sink resource can be directly accessed; and accessing the capability directly by the media source using the direct address.

5G and especially 6G are intended to accommodate high-speed mobile user devices and access points such as wireless devices on trains and airplanes, while retaining enhanced mobile broadband eMBB service. Therefore, new resource-efficient, low-complexity procedures are needed for measuring and correcting the Doppler frequency shift. To assist user devices, a base station or access point can periodically broadcast a current geographical location of the base station or access point in a localization message. In some embodiments, the geographical location data can be included in a periodically broadcast system information message, such as unused space of a SSB (synchronization signal block) message or an SIB1 (first system information block) message. User devices can then determine a vector toward the base station or access point relative to the user device location and velocity, and thereby calculate a Doppler correction without a frequency scan or other overhead, according to some embodiments.
