During a positioning session, a wake up signal (WUS) configuration for a user equipment (UE) operating in a discontinuous reception (DRX) mode may be adapted to avoid dormant secondary serving cells (SCells) for positioning. The location server, for example, may configure positioning assistance data and scheduling of uplink sounding reference signals (SRS) to exclude SCells that are included in a dormancy list for the UE. The location server, alternatively, may provide to a serving base station supporting a primary serving cell (PCell) for the UE an indication of the SCells to be used for positioning. The SCells may be removed from the dormancy list during the positioning session or may be brought out of dormancy for all or selected monitoring occasions during the positioning session.

An access point (AP) configured for multi-AP operation within a group of two or more other APs of a multi-AP group including at least a second AP uses restricted target wake time (r-TWT) service periods (SPs) for coordinating communications within the multi-AP group. The AP may be configured to encode a management frame for transmission to stations (STA) associated with the AP. The management frame may include a r-TWT element that includes a r-TWT schedule for communicating within one or more r-TWT SPs. The APs of the multi-AP group and their associated STAs may be configured to end any transmission opportunities (TXOPs) before a start of the r-TWT SPs and initiate a time-aligned contention period for the r-TWT SPs.

A network node is arranged to operate in a cell of a cellular communication system. The network node includes an interface towards the cellular communication system where the interface is arranged to receive paging information for an idle user equipment, UE, a paging handler arranged to determine a mode of power saving for the UE, and to determine timing for a wake-up signal based on the determined mode and the received paging information, and a transmitter arranged to transmit the wake-up signal at the determined timing. A method of the network node includes receiving paging information for an idle user equipment, UE, from the cellular communication system, determining a mode of power saving for the UE, determining timing for a wake-up signal based on the determined mode and the received paging information, and transmitting the wake-up signal at the determined timing.

The present application relates to an information configuration method, apparatus and device, and a storage medium. A first UE receives configuration information sent by a second UE, and because the configuration information is used for indicating data transceiving-related parameters under a power saving mechanism of a side link between the first UE and the second UE, the purpose of power saving can be achieved when the first UE and the second UE communicate with each other by using the data transceiving-related parameters indicated by the configuration information; moreover, the purpose of the configuration information is to perform data transceiving under the power saving mechanism of the side link between the first UE and the second UE.

Disclosed is a method performed a network entity in a wireless communication system using an open-radio access network (O-RAN), the network entity including at least one of a non-real-time RAN intelligent controller (non-RT RIC) and near-RT RIC, the method comprises configuring at least one node with a list of cell IDs representing cells to be activated or deactivated based on a condition in a network, and transmitting, to the at least one node, information including the list of cell IDs.

A method and apparatus to receive from a plurality of network nodes, information of sleep mode plans; determine at least one pattern of the time periods that can be used to optimize the sleep modes to provide a highest power savings; and send information of the determined pattern of time periods to use to optimize the sleep modes. A method and apparatus to send towards a network device, information including sleep mode plans of at least one user equipment; negotiate with the aggregation node time periods for the sleep mode plans to determine at least one pattern of time periods that can be used to optimize the sleep mode plans of the at least one user equipment to provide a highest power savings to the at least one user equipment; and receive information of the at least one pattern of time periods to use to provide the highest power savings.

Tracking devices can be associated with safe zones, smart zones, and high risk zones. Safe zones correspond to regions where a likelihood that a tracking device is lost within the safe zone is lower than outside the safe zone. High risk zones correspond to regions where a likelihood that a tracking device is lost within the high risk zone is higher than outside the high risk zone. Smart zones correspond to an expected tracking device, mobile device, or user behavior. Home areas are geographic regions in which a user resides, and travel areas are geographic regions in which a user does not reside. A tracking device can be configured to operate in a mode selected based on a presence of the tracking device within a safe zone, a smart zone, a high risk zone, a home area, or a travel area.

System and method for collection, control and wireless transmission of environmental and other data. Nodes may wirelessly connect to other nodes to relay node specific information, collected sensor data or commands to and from other nodes and gateway nodes linked to a central database. Nodes in gateway mode may be capable of aggregating and relaying commands and data between other nodes and a centralized database. Nodes may bypass other nodes and/or gateway nodes and communicate directly with the central database via satellite or cellular link. Nodes may be self-contained devices, inclusive of a wind or solar power source and a battery, eliminating the need for an external power source. Nodes may be configured independently or as a system to monitor and control various types of equipment including utility lines or water systems or used to collect environmental data. Nodes may communicate on different channels/frequencies based on systematic or pseudo-random changes.

A method for activating at least one communication interface of a residential gateway of a local communication network to which a main item of equipment configured for connecting to the at least one communication interface of the residential gateway is connected is disclosed. This method is implemented by at least one secondary item of equipment configured for communicating with the at least one main item of equipment via a first wireless communication channel, and with the residential gateway via a second wireless communication channel associated with at least one other communication interface of the residential gateway. This method includes transmitting to the at least one main item of equipment, over the first wireless communication channel, of a message controlling the at least one main item of equipment, and transmitting to the residential gateway, over the second wireless communication channel, of a request to activate the at least one communication interface.

A power consumption control method includes obtaining, by a wireless access device, characteristic data of one or more first components, where the characteristic data indicates a running status of the wireless access device; determining, by the wireless access device, target power consumption statuses of a plurality of second components based on the characteristic data; and adjusting, by the wireless access device, power consumption statuses of the second components based on the target power consumption statuses.
