A communication control method includes receiving, by a relay user equipment, data transmitted from a remote user equipment on a sidelink, transmitting, from the relay user equipment to a base station and on an uplink, the data received from the remote user equipment, and transmitting, from the relay user equipment to the remote user equipment, restriction information restricting an amount of data to be transmitted by the remote user equipment.

A method performed by a User Equipment (UE) for managing sub-flow communications is provided, the method includes selecting a sub-flow among a plurality of sub-flows of the UE based on a set of parameters associated with each of the plurality of sub-flows, and transmitting a plurality of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) acknowledgement messages in a single frame through the selected sub-flow, the plurality of TCP acknowledgement messages being associated with the plurality of sub-flows.

Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for determining a connected mode discontinuous reception (C-DRX) short cycle value, transmitting a C-DRX short cycle request to a base station, the C-DRX short cycle request including the C-DRX short cycle value, receiving a first confirmation indicating the base station accepting the C-DRX short cycle value associated with the C-DRX short cycle request, determining an averaging window value based on the C-DRX short cycle value, transmitting an averaging window request to the base station, the averaging window request including the averaging window value, receiving a second confirmation indicating the base station accepting the averaging window value associated with the averaging window request, and communicating with the base station based on the C-DRX short cycle value and the averaging window value.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may monitor one or more first conditions pertaining to non-cellular communications between the UE and a non-cellular network while the UE is operating in a dual networking mode for steering, switching, or splitting traffic (e.g., an access traffic steering, switching, and splitting (ATSSS) mode) between the non-cellular network and a cellular network. The UE may predict an availability status of at least the non-cellular network based on at least one of the one or more first conditions. In some cases, the UE may determine whether to change dual networking modes based on the availability status and may communicate in accordance with the same or a different dual networking mode using at least one of the cellular network, the non-cellular network, or a combination thereof based on the prediction.

This wireless communication system has a first base station, and a second base station whereby downlink data received from a core network can be transmitted to a terminal via the second base station and the first base station. The second base station transmits, to the first base station, information that makes it possible to identify whether or not flow control can be carried out.

A variety of techniques for concealing the content of a communication between a client device, such as a cell phone or laptop, and a network or cloud of media nodes are disclosed. Among the techniques are routing data packets in the communication to different gateway nodes in the cloud, sending the packets over different physical media, such as an Ethernet cable or WiFi channel, and disguising the packets by giving them different source addressees. Also disclosed are a technique for muting certain participants in a conference call and a highly secure method of storing data files.
