The described technology is generally directed towards a multi-connectivity (three or more simultaneous communication links) framework in a wireless communication network, including aspects and components that support the operation of New Radio vehicle-to-everything (V2X) services. Aspects of the framework include initial access and V2X establishment, local manager selection, sidelink and cellular resource configuration, mobility and measurements (and reporting), group communication and vehicular platooning support, and V2X configuration and local manager association.

A vehicle and method of platooning control therefor are provided to achieve optimum communication charge efficiency while a plurality of vehicles perform platooning. A data communication method of a platooning vehicle includes starting platooning by a plurality of vehicles and sharing data charge rate information through a first protocol for vehicle-to-vehicle communication (V2V) by the plurality of vehicles. A first master vehicle and at least one slave vehicle are determined based on the shared data charge rate information. An access point (AP) is then activated according to a second protocol for short distance communication by the first master vehicle and an AP of the master vehicle is accessed and data communication is performed by the at least one slave vehicle.

Embodiments of this application disclose a communication method and a communications apparatus, to resolve a problem that a terminal cannot quickly resume a communication connection to a secondary node. The method includes: receiving, by a first master node, a first message from a terminal, where the first message is used to request state transition of the terminal from a third mode to a connected mode; determining, by the first master node, a secondary node that serves the terminal; obtaining, by the first master node, a first security parameter, where the first security parameter is used to derive a security key used for communication between the terminal and the secondary node that serves the terminal; obtaining, by the first master node, SCG configuration information; and sending, by the first master node, a second message to the terminal, where the second message includes the first security parameter and the SCG configuration information.

A communication method for a wireless device, a wireless device and a computer readable storage medium are provided to reduce power consumption of a master device in the wireless device and balance power consumptions of the master device and a slave device. The communication method for a wireless device according to the embodiments of the present disclosure includes: alternately serving, by the master device and the slave device of the wireless device, as a responder, and sending, by the responder, a response message to the terminal via the first Bluetooth link. The response message indicates a result of receiving the Bluetooth data by the wireless device.

According to an embodiment, there is provided a method for selecting a dangerous Bluetooth device including: a detecting step of discovering, by a selecting apparatus, a Bluetooth device; a connecting step of connecting, by the selecting apparatus, to the detected Bluetooth device; and a predicting step of predicting, by the selecting apparatus, a dangerous Bluetooth device among the Bluetooth devices discovered at the detecting step, based on at least one result of a result of the detecting step and a result of the connecting step.

The present invention relates to a method for obtaining a location using Neighbor Awareness Networking, NAN, and a corresponding system as well as a method carried out by a NAN device and a corresponding NAN device so that a location can be obtained in a simple way. In particular, the method for obtaining a location using neighbor awareness networking, NAN, comprises requesting the location of a target NAN device; determining a cluster of wireless NAN devices comprising the target NAN device as well as one or more anchor NAN devices having predetermined locations to serve as positioning nodes; performing range measurements using the travel times of radio signals between the target NAN device and each of the one or more anchor NAN devices; and obtaining the location of the target NAN device based on the range measurements.

Disclosed is a lighting control system for directing a show. The system includes at least: a master device; and a plurality of slave devices that receive lighting control signals from the master device. The light control signals correspond to seats of a plurality of audiences in an auditorium. The plurality of slave devices receive position information indicating specific positions at which the plurality of slave devices emit a light, light-emitting status information including preset information to classify the plurality of slave devices into a plurality of groups, and group identification number information. The plurality of slave devices are grouped in accordance with received information. The master device controls the grouped plurality of slave devices to emit a light per group basis by broadcasting the lighting control signals including group light-emitting pattern information for each of the plurality of groups of the plurality of slave devices.

Techniques that provide link establishment between a radio equipment controller (REC) and a radio equipment (RE) in a fronthaul network are described herein. In one embodiment, a method includes performing, Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI) Layer 1 (L1) link auto-negotiation operations to establish a CPRI link between the REC and RE. A proxy slave may achieve a hyper frame number (HFN) synchronization with the REC at a link bit rate for a first CPRI bit stream and communicate the first CPRI bit stream and the link bit rate to a proxy master. The proxy master may communicate a second CPRI bit stream to the proxy slave to transmit to the REC. The L1 link auto-negotiation operations are completed and CPRI link is established between the REC and the RE when the REC achieves a HFN synchronization for the second CPRI bit stream.
