The method includes a terminal device sends capability information to a location management function (LMF) device, where the capability information indicates that the terminal device supports sending of a sounding reference signal (SRS) in a non-connected state; and the terminal device receives information about an SRS configuration from an access network device, where the information about the SRS configuration indicates the terminal device to send the SRS based on the SRS configuration.

A method for semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) based resource allocation in a private 5G network comprises receiving location data of a plurality of user equipment (UEs) in the private 5G network in a last subframe of respective current communication periods of the UEs and determining distance distribution of the UEs in a subsequent communication period of a candidate UE of the plurality of UEs, based on the respective location data of the UEs. The method further comprises determining signal to noise ratio expectation of the UEs for the subsequent communication period, solving an optimization problem optimizing an expectation of data to be carried by each of the one or more SPS channels in the subsequent communication period, to obtain scheduling result for each of the one or more SPS channels and generating resource allocation data for the candidate UE based on the scheduling result.

A method for communication between a communication device and a base station in a private 5G network where the communication device and the base station have a base period of transmission defined there between as a minimal scheduling period, comprises transmitting location data of the communication device in a last subframe of a current communication period of the communication device. The method further comprises receiving resource allocation data including a transmission period widening factor for one or more subsequent communication periods of the communication device and computing a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) period as a subsequent communication period of the one or more subsequent communication periods, based on the transmission period widening factor and the base period of transmission. Uplink communication is performed in the one or more subsequent periods, based on the resource allocation data and the SPS period.

A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. A base station (BS) may configure a component carrier group for a user equipment (UE). The BS may provide an indication of a spatial relation for one or more sounding reference signals associated with a component carrier of the component carrier group. The UE may receive the indication and may apply the spatial relation to the one or more sounding reference signals across bandwidth parts of component carriers of the component carrier group.

Disclosed herein includes a system, a method, and a device for providing latency sensitive links. A wireless device can receive, from a wireless node, an advertisement message indicating a set of wireless local area network (WLAN) links that support one or more defined latency requirements, a capability of the wireless node to support the set of WLAN links, a plurality of parameters, an operating mode, and a status for the set of WLAN links. The wireless device can send, to the wireless node responsive to the advertisement message, a request to access a first link of the set of WLAN links. The request can indicate a capability of the wireless device to interoperate with the wireless node to use the first link. The wireless device can access the first link of the set of WLAN links if the wireless node accepts the request to access the first link.

A base station may send an indication of frequency subranges supported by the base station to user equipment, which may respond with an indication of the frequency subranges that are also supported by the user equipment. Additionally, a Spectrum Access System (SAS) controller, using environmental sensing capability sensors, may determine whether non-federal networks are disposed in a coverage area of a base station and neighboring coverage areas. If so, then the SAS may indicate to the base station to send an indication to user equipment in the coverage area to operate using a default power mode. Otherwise, the SAS may indicate to the base station to send an indication to the user equipment to operate using a lower power mode. Moreover, a base station may indicate a regulatory requirement to user equipment using network signaling value of multiple network signaling values corresponding to multiple regulatory requirements of multiple geographical regions.

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities may implement service-based discovery in a network, such as a 3GPP or 3GPP2 network. A Discovery Server may be used to query and find services offered by the network or by entities that interface with the network. Situational context information or policy information, or both, may be communicated to the discovery server so that the Discovery Server can provide context-aware and policy-based discovery services. The Discovery Server may be used to control which of the entities that interface with the network can discover one another. The Discovery Server may support queries based on, for example, the type of MTC entity, the type of services hosted on the entity, the availability times of the entity, types of protocols supported, levels of Quality of Service (QoS) supported, and MTC-IWF services.

The present disclosure provides a terminal device that allows constraints on user allocation to be prevented and spread codes to be allocated in a scheduler when non-adaptive HARQ is employed using a PHICH. A codeword generator generates code words by encoding data, a layer mapping unit places each CW in one or a plurality of layers, a DMRS generator generates a reference signal for each layer in which a CW is placed by using any resource among a plurality of resources defined by a mutually orthogonal plurality of OCCs, and an ACK/NACK demodulator receives a response signal indicating a retransmission request. When a response signal requesting retransmission of only a CW placed in a plurality of layers is received, the DMRS generator uses each resource having the same OCC among the plurality of resources for the reference signals generated in the corresponding layers.

A method, apparatus, and system of a User Equipment (UE) device executing communications using a Device-to-Device (D2D) Long Term Evolution (LTE) network are provided. The method includes determining D2D devices communicating in an area, determining whether D2D data is to be transmitted, determining one or more resource sets for transmitting the D2D data, and transmitting the D2D data using the determined one or more resource sets.
