An MS 300 controls a mobility level (IMM) of user device in an idle mode depending on a movement; state of the user device. The ME 300 includes a movement state acquisition section 320 that acquires the movement state of the user device, a mobility level selector 330 chat selects a mobility level out of the multiple mobility levels based on the movement state of the user device acquired by the movement state acquisition section 320, and a mobility level notification section 340 that notifies the user device of the mobility level selected by the mobility level selector 330.

A device may operate within a specified frequency band within a specified coverage area of a wireless cellular network served by a cell. The device may monitor, during a cell-specific paging window, paging messages transmitted by the cell within the cell-specific paging window to devices operating within the specified coverage area and targeted to receive paging messages. The device may enter an idle state if the monitoring indicates that the paging messages do not include a respective paging message intended for the device. If the monitoring indicates that the paging messages include a paging message intended for the device, the device may process the paging message. Furthermore, the device may indicate to the cell, when attaching to the cell, whether the device has a capability to support standalone operation within the specified frequency band. If the indication is that the device does not support such standalone operation, the cell may not issue paging messages to the device.

Communication by messages such as provided by the mobile telephony standard, Rich Communication Services (RCS), is described. A method for exchanging messages implemented by a user terminal capable of transmitting a message via one of a first network and a second network is described, the method including, when the terminal of the user is in a second transmission mode for a contact terminal, triggering a failover of the user terminal in a first transmission mode for the contact terminal, as soon as a notification is received at the terminal of the user of connecting to the first network of the contact terminal coming from a messaging server on the first network. Thus, returning to using the first network by the user terminal only depends on one single message: the connection notification, and the exchanges for determining the capacities of the terminal of the contact are reduced, since this notification is only sent when the connection of the contact terminal to the first network is effective.

A method and system for sending messages in a telecommunications network, in which digital messages which contain information on the desired reply address are mass sent, and messages, which are sent on the basis of the reply-address information are received. The reply-address information of each mass-sent message is converted to correspond to a predefined dialogue, in which the stage of the dialogue defines unequivocally the reply-address information, so that the transmission and reception of the messages are implemented in different parts of the telecommunications system.

Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content searching, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with devices, servers and/or platforms. The disclosed systems and methods for efficiently monitoring and following up on delivered messages for which a user expects and/or requires a reply. The disclosed functionality provides a fully automated, personalized, easy and efficient way to identify and manage outgoing mail messages that require reply by marking outbound messages as RSVP messages, which are those messages determined to require a reply. Such functionality is based on the ability of the disclosed framework to distinguish between a “satisfactory response” (i.e., a response that includes the required information) and a response that is not.

An apparatus for transmitting and receiving data to/from an IoT device to accelerate the spread of IoT. The IoT device 110 generates a message to be transmitted, and transmits, via SMS, the message to the phone number of a first server 101, which is stored in the IoT device 110. The first server 101 notifies the IoT terminal 110, as needed, of having received SMS data including the message, and thereafter delivers the SMS data to a second server 102. The second server 102 specifies a destination with reference to associations between destination identifiers includable in the SMS data and destinations. The second server 102 transmits, to a third external server 123, a portion obtained by excluding the destination identifier from the message or the whole message including the destination identifier.

The invention relates to mobility management nodes and methods of the mobility management nodes of enabling delivery of a Mobile Terminating, (MT) Short Message (SM) to a mobile terminal.

In a first aspect of the invention, a method of a mobility management node is provided for enabling delivery of a Mobile Terminating, (MT) Short Message (SM) to a mobile terminal which currently is in extended idle mode discontinuous reception, eDRX, mode. The method comprises receiving an indication from a Short Message Service Gateway Mobile Switching Centre (SMS-GMSC) that the SM is to be delivered, receiving a notification that the mobile terminal has exited an extended idle Discontinuous Reception (eDRX) mode before a paging occasion has occurred, and submitting, in response to the notification, a message indicating to the SMS-GMSC that the mobile terminal is available for delivery of the SM.

The 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 system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The 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. The disclosure discloses a method and an apparatus for allocating resources of an IAB node.

Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose a method, an apparatus, and a system for data transmission. The method includes: broadcasting, by a relay device, a first message, where the first message is used to indicate that the relay device supports data forwarding; receiving, by the relay device, a second message from a remote device, where the second message includes data of the remote device; and sending, by the relay device, the data to a core network device based on the second message. In the present method, after receiving the first message broadcast by the relay device, the remote device directly sends the data of the remote device to the relay device without establishing a connection dedicated for transmitting the data of the remote device between the remote device and the relay device, thereby reducing signaling and reducing power consumption of the remote device.

A device may operate within a specified frequency band within a specified coverage area of a wireless cellular network served by a cell. The device may monitor, during a cell-specific paging window, paging messages transmitted by the cell within the cell-specific paging window to devices operating within the specified coverage area and targeted to receive paging messages. The device may enter an idle state if the monitoring indicates that the paging messages do not include a respective paging message intended for the device. If the monitoring indicates that the paging messages include a paging message intended for the device, the device may process the paging message. Furthermore, the device may indicate to the cell, when attaching to the cell, whether the device has a capability to support standalone operation within the specified frequency band. If the indication is that the device does not support such standalone operation, the cell may not issue paging messages to the device.
