A cell handover method is disclosed. A terminal obtains a signal attenuation observation instruction, detects, in response to the signal attenuation observation instruction, signal strength and a signal attenuation parameter of a first cell, and sends the signal strength and the signal attenuation parameter to a network side device. Then, the network side device determines, based on the signal strength and the signal attenuation parameter, whether a cell handover is to be performed by the terminal. After performing a cell handover for the terminal is determined, the terminal is triggered to perform the cell handover from the first cell to a second cell. The first cell is a serving cell of the terminal, and the second cell is a neighboring cell of the first cell.

This application provides a communication method, apparatus, and system, and relates to the field of communications technologies, to improve a success rate of receiving a paging message by a terminal device. The method includes: After determining a target first cell, determining to reselect a first cell, or determining to have reselected a first cell, the terminal device sends first information to a network device. The first cell belongs to a first network. The network device belongs to a second network. The first information is determined by the terminal device. The first information includes first configuration information and/or first timing offset information. The first configuration information includes to-be-used gap GAP configuration information or to-be-used time division multiplexing TDM pattern configuration information of the terminal device.

Embodiments of the present application provide a data transmission method, a terminal device, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. The method includes: receiving, by a terminal device, first configuration information, sent by a network device, and the first configuration is configured to determine configuration information of pre-configured resource, and in response to the pre-configured resource being activated, transmitting uplink data or receiving downlink data via the pre-configured resource by the terminal device. The terminal device includes a memory and a processor. The memory is configured to store a computer program, and the processor is configured to call and run the computer program stored in the memory to execute the above-mentioned data transmission method.

Methods, apparatuses, systems, etc., directed to performing a change of relay are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a WTRU may transmit a link modification request message to a target WTRU via a first relay WTRU for requesting a change of relay. The WTRU may receive a link modification accept message from the target WTRU via the first relay WTRU, indicating a (e.g., proposed) second relay WTRU (e.g., identifier). The WTRU may transmit a direct communication request message including the second relay WTRU identifier for indicating to the target WTRU acceptance of the proposed second relay WTRU. The WTRU may a receiving a direct communication accept message from the target WTRU via the second relay WTRU, indicating the traffic may be relayed via the second relay WTRU.

Methods, systems, and devices for are described. A user equipment (UE) may be configured to initiate a first setup procedure with a first cell supported by a base station. The UE may determine a system information block (SIB) read failure, a radio link failure, or both, based on initiating the first setup procedure. The UE may determine whether a link quality metric associated with communications between the UE and the first cell satisfies a link quality threshold. The UE may select a cell bar time based on a type of a communications service established via the base station, whether the link quality metric satisfies the link quality threshold, or both. The UE may then initiate a cell reselection procedure based on the cell bar time.

A device may include a processor configured to determine that a user equipment (UE) device, attached to a base station, is within a coverage area of a small cell operating on a first channel, and that the UE device is not a member of the small cell and is experiencing interference on the first channel. The processor may be further configured to send an instruction to the UE device to provide a measurement report for base stations operating on another band or channel different from the first channel; receive a measurement report from the UE device identifying one or more neighboring base stations operating on the other band or channel; and perform a handover of the UE device to a neighboring base station, wherein the UE device is to communicate with the neighboring base station using the other band or channel.

A radio terminal (1) determines that the radio terminal (1) is approaching a first station (5), receives from a center server (4) a cell identifier of a first cell corresponding to an entrance gate function (53) of the first station (5), and transmit a message containing the cell identifier to a cellular communication network. The message causes the network to add the first cell (54) as a secondary cell in dual connectivity for the radio terminal (1), enabling the radio terminal (1) to communicate with the entrance gate function (53) via a user plane path including a radio connection of the first cell (54). The radio terminal (1) then communicates with the entrance gate function (53) via the user plane path. This contributes, for example, to reducing latency required to transmit or receive user data in a narrow coverage cell when a radio terminal receives a signal from that cell.

A telecommunication network associated with a wireless telecommunication provider can be configured to dynamically switch the primary cell (PCell) used by user equipment (UE) for carrier aggregation (CA) in 5G cellular networks. Instead of remaining anchored to an initially selected PCell, a different PCell may be dynamically selected based on different network conditions. The network conditions may include network congestion, network capacity, uplink speed, location of the UE, an activity of the UE (e.g., is the UE uploading or planning to upload data), and the like. As an example, the PCell may be selected from an n41 (2.5 GHz) cell and an n71 (600 MHz) cell. When the UE is close to the n41 cell, the n41 cell may be selected. When the UE is moving away from the cell center and toward the cell edge, the PCell may be switched from the n41 cell to the n71 cell.

An apparatus for wireless communication of a UE is disclosed. The apparatus may initiate, at a new radio (NR) serving cell, a voice session with an IMS. The apparatus may perform, in response to determining that voice over NR (VoNR) is not supported by the first NR cell, an EPS fallback procedure to establish the voice session with the IMS. The apparatus may update a whitelist of NR cells that support VoNR to include the first NR cell when it is determined that the first NR cell supports VoNR.

A method for a user equipment maintaining a first set of configuration parameters includes: measuring strength of signals transmitted by a first base station, measuring strength of signal transmitted by at least one of a set of neighbor base stations operating in unlicensed spectrum, determining a second set of configuration parameters corresponding to the cellular network for a second base station in a set of neighbor base stations, by retrieving said set of configuration parameter from said second base station, considering the second base station for cell re-selection when: the measured signal strength for the second base station is higher than said measured signal strength of first base station, and said determined second set of configuration parameters corresponds to said first set of configuration parameters, and carrying out a cell selection to said second base station when these conditions are met.
