First information received by a first MLD on a first link is used to determine whether a BSS configuration of a second link is updated. In response to the BSS configuration of the second link not being updated, the first MLD directly transmits a data frame on the switched-to second link or the second link whose status is transited, and the data frame is not transmitted until a beacon frame is received and a latest parameter of the BSS configuration is obtained on the switched-to second link or the second link whose status is transited. A waiting time occurring before the data frame is transmitted is reduced.

According to various example embodiments of the present invention, an electronic device may comprise: a sensor module; a first communication circuit supporting a first communication scheme; a low-power processor; and a processor operatively connected to the sensor module, the first communication circuit, and the low-power processor, wherein the first communication circuit transmits a request signal related to a state of the electronic device to the low-power processor on the basis of distance measurement-related information provided from the processor, receives information related to the state of the electronic device from the low-power processor in response to the request signal, and measures a distance to an external electronic device on the basis of the information related to the state of the electronic device. Other embodiments may also be possible.

A second base station sends, to a wireless device, an indication of a data radio bearer (DRB) configured for a small data transmission (SDT) procedure of the wireless device. The second base station receives, from a first base station, a request for a context of the wireless device. The second base station sends, to the first base station, in response to the request, a response message indicating not to relocate the context of the wireless device, and the DRB configured for the SDT procedure. The second base station receives, from the first base station, downlink data forwarding information associated with the DRB configured for the SDT procedure. Based on the downlink data forwarding information, the second base station sends, to the first base station, downlink data of the SDT procedure received from a core network node.

A method and device are disclosed for radio resource allocation to support User Equipment-to-Network (UE-to-Network) relaying. The network node establishes a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection with a remote UE via a relay UE. The network node transmits a first RRC message to the remote UE via the relay UE, wherein the first RRC message includes a Uu radio bearer configuration and a Sidelink (SL) Radio Link Control (RLC) bearer configuration associated with a data radio bearer (DRB) or a signalling radio bearer (SRB) and wherein the network node is allowed to include a first field used to indicate a configuration for UE autonomous resource selection for sidelink communication transmission in the first RRC message and the network node is not allowed to include a second field used to indicate a configuration for UE to transmit sidelink communication based on network scheduling in the first RRC message.

A method for a user equipment (UE) connected to a serving Radio Access Network (RAN) through a serving cell is provided. The serving RAN may include a Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN). The method receives, from the serving cell, satellite information regarding a coverage area of the serving RAN. After receiving the satellite information, the method determines, based on the satellite information, that the UE will be disconnected from the serving RAN by moving out of the coverage area of the serving RAN after a specific period of time. The method maintains an Access Stratum (AS) layer configuration of the UE without performing any task associated with an Idle mode of the UE while the UE is staying out of the coverage area of the serving RAN.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) associated with a first subscription and a second subscription may establish a connection with a base station, the first subscription in a connected state. The UE may use the first subscription to perform a communication activity with the base station while the first subscription is in the connected state. Upon completion of the communication activity, the UE may transmit UE assistance information (UAI) to the base station indicating a preference of the UE to switch the first subscription to an inactive state in response to a release message from the base station.

A method and a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) are disclosed. The WTRU comprises a receiver, a transmitter, and a processor. The WTRU receives a system information block (SIB) including a parameter indicating a number of transmissions for a random access message and a parameter indicating transmission duration information for the random access message. The WTRU transmits a random access preamble and a random access message, wherein the random access message is transmitted for a duration indicated by the parameter indicating transmission duration information for the random access message. The WTRU retransmits the random access message, wherein the random access message is retransmitted a number of times indicated by the parameter indicating the number of transmissions for the random access message and for the duration indicated by the parameter indicating transmission duration information for the random access message.
