The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and devices for informing at least one downstream device of a migrating integrated access backhaul node (IAB-node) about an inter-donor migration status of migrating IAB node undergoing a migration from a source IAB-donor to a target IAB-donor. The method includes receiving, by a receiving device, a radio resource control (RRC) message sent from an IAB-donor. The RRC message includes an information element which indicates an inter-donor migration status of a migrating IAB-node. The method further includes in response to the information element indicating a successful inter-donor migration, sending, by the receiving device, a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) status reports to a target IAB-donor. The PDCP status report corresponds to a radio link control acknowledged mode (RLC-AM) bearer configured to be allowed to send the PDCP status report in an uplink, and is configured to update data transmission for the receiving device.

A method and apparatus for switching between unicast and multicast by considering degraded user experience in a wireless communication system is described. A CU of a RAN node receives, from the DU, a first switching message including status of the MBS for each of the first wireless device and the second wireless device. A CU of a RAN node determines to switch the first transmission to a third transmission only for the first wireless device for the MBS, based on the received status of the MBS.

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services.

A TSN-based distributed antenna system including a headend unit, one or more TSN switches, and one or more remote units and a fronthaul transport network constituted by the headend unit, the TSN switch, and the remote unit is provided. The packet-based fronthaul network constituted by the headend unit, the TSN switch, and the remote unit transmits traffic in a time-deterministic manner while minimizing packet loss through Ethernet to which TSN standards are applied.

A wireless instrument area network node employs an internal force sensor arrangement to detect user-provided force on the node and initiate a node operation, such as wake the node from a sleep state or low power mode to a more power-hungry awake and processing state. The internal force sensor avoids the need to provide external buttons, a screen, and the like on the surface of the node that could lead to intrusion of fluids, gases, or other unwanted substances into the node. In some embodiments, the internal sensor may include a microswitch that has sufficient sensitivity to detect even a very small amount of deflection resulting from, for example, a hand touch. In some embodiments, the internal sensor may include a piezoelectric sensor that has similarly high deflection sensitivity. Multiple such deflection detectors may be at different angles to one another deployed to provide greater directional coverage for the deflection.

A method performed by a system having a plurality of base station systems, each base station system comprising a baseband unit, BBU and a radio unit, RU interconnected via a fronthaul connection that is shared between the base station systems. Fronthaul capacity information on transmission capacity of the shared fronthaul connection and information on required capacity for transmission and/or reception of wireless signals by the RU of the respective base station system are obtained. Time unit transmission restrictions for the respective base station system is determined based on the fronthaul capacity information and on the information on required capacity, which time unit transmission restrictions results in fronthaul usage below the transmission capacity of the part of the fronthaul connection. Information on the determined time unit transmission restrictions is sent to the BBU of the respective base station system.
