An advertising algorithm is disclosed which operates in an Implantable Medical Device (IMD) to adjust an interval at which the IMD will transmit advertising data packets to an external device able to connect with the IMD. When a communication session between the IMD and an external device is terminated, the advertising algorithm will issue advertising data packets at a higher rate for a set duration. This will allow the external device to connect more quickly with the IMD in a next communication session. After the set duration, when it may be assumed that the external device is less likely to connect with the IMD, the algorithm reduces that rate at which advertising data packets are issued, which saves power in the IMD.

An embodiment relates to an operation method of a remote user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system, including selecting a relay UE by the remote UE, establishing PC5 connection with the relay UE by the remote UE, and transmitting a message related to RRC connection to the relay UE by the remote UE, and in this case, the remote UE initiates one or more timers related to RRC connection with a base station (BS), and the one or more timers are different from a first timer used when the remote UE performs a direct RRC connection procedure with the BS.

A communication apparatus determines whether the communication apparatus is to operate as a transmission apparatus for transmitting service data to be transferred by a service performed via a network, or operate as both the transmission apparatus for transmitting the service data to be transferred by the service performed via the network and a reception apparatus for receiving the service data to be transferred by the service performed via the network, terminates a connection with a communication partner apparatus in response to completion of transmission of the service data if the communication apparatus operates as the transmission apparatus, and terminates the connection with the communication partner apparatus in response to a user operation if the communication apparatus operates as both the transmission apparatus and the reception apparatus.

Disclosed is a 5G or pre-5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G communication system such as LTE. A communication method of a terminal in a wireless communication system, which includes a first base station supporting first wireless communication and a second base station supporting second wireless communication, can comprise the steps of: performing data communication though the first wireless communication with the first base station; receiving, from the first or second base station, configuration information for second wireless communication connection; reporting, to the first or second base station, the result of measurement on at least one beamforming reference signal having been received from the second base station, on the basis of the configuration information; and establishing the second wireless communication connection with the second base station on the basis of the measurement result.

A client device is provided for use with a user, a network extender device and a gateway device. The client device includes: a memory; a graphic user interface configured to provide an instruction to the user to place the client device within a predetermined distance from the network extender device; and a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the memory to cause the client device to: obtain the backhaul credentials from the wireless network; obtain the extender identification data from the network extender device; instruct the graphic user interface to provide the instruction to the user to place the client device within a predetermined distance from the network extender device; communicate with the network extender device based on the extender identification data; and provide the backhaul credentials to the network extender device to enable the network extender device to join the wireless network.

The present disclosure relates to a method of monitoring, by a wireless device, a downlink channel or a downlink signal. The method may include a step of receiving configuration information on a power save signal. The power saving signal can be used to signal that the downlink channel or the downlink signal should be monitored later. The configuration information may contain configuration information on an opportunity to omit the power saving signal. The method may include a step of monitoring the downlink channel or the downlink signal without monitoring the energy saving signal during the opportunity to omit. The length and/or position of the opportunity of omission can be determined according to the configuration information of a discontinuous receive cycle (DRX).
