Technology is disclosed for a Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) management system operable for peer-to-peer (P2P) edge computing in a fifth generation (5G) computing network. The 3GPP management system can be configured to: identify a user plane function (UPF) based on quality of service (QoS) requirements. The 3GPP management system can be configured to request, from an edge computing management system, deployment of an application server (AS). The 3GPP management system can be configured to request a network functions virtualization (NFV) orchestrator (NFVO) to connect the UPF and the AS based on the QoS requirements.

Techniques are described for facilitating an inter-Radio Access Technology (RAT) selection or measurement process for a dual-mode or a multi-mode device. For example, a wireless communication method includes a network node transmitting to a communication node a system information block (SIB) that includes information about Radio Access Technologies (RATs). The information includes any one or more of a first carrier priority value and a first threshold value of a serving frequency associated with a RAT, a second carrier priority value and a second threshold value of a serving cell associated with the RAT, an indicator to indicate existence of one or more additional RATs, carrier information for the one or more additional RATs, and access information to access the one or more additional RATs.

A method for adaptively allocating resources of an uplink control channel according to a system situation is disclosed. If a base station (BS) recognizes the system situation, establishes control information for resource allocation, and transmits the control information to a mobile station (MS), the mobile station (MS) allocates resources for transmitting uplink control information using a specific block or a specific resource distribution method according to the corresponding control information. The system situation may be changed according to the number of users contained in the BS's coverage or the usage of a multi-antenna. The variation of the system situation is actively reflected so that the uplink channel resources can be effectively used.

An apparatus and method providing feedback on channel conditions in a wireless telecommunications system including a base station to communicate with plural terminals device using frequencies spanning a system frequency bandwidth. At least one terminal device is a reduced capability terminal device including a tuneable transceiver configured to receive downlink transmissions from the base station using only a restricted frequency bandwidth smaller than and within the system frequency bandwidth. The reduced capability terminal device is configured to communicate information derived from measurements of channel conditions to the base station. The information may include an indication of measured channel conditions for different frequency locations, or an indication of one or more frequency locations for which corresponding measurement of channel conditions meet a pre-defined selection criterion. The base station subsequently schedules downlink transmissions for the terminal device in a manner that takes account of the information received from the terminal device.

The invention refers to a resource scheduling for a radio channel between a radio telecommunications network and a radio terminal or user equipment, UE, wherein the radio telecommunications network performs a resource scheduling in dependency of a reported channel quality of the radio channel, wherein the UE performs the steps of determining (52) a channel quality with respect to the radio channel, determining (53) a communication type with respect to the radio channel, generating (55, 56) a channel quality value as a function of the channel quality and the communication type, and transmitting the channel quality value to the radio telecommunications network. The invention further refers to a radio terminal and a computer program for performing the method.

A channel state is adequately reported even if the number of component carriers configurable to a user terminal is expanded to six or more. The user terminal for communicating with a radio base station by use of six or more component carriers includes a measuring section configured to measure reception quality of a downlink channel of each of the component carriers, and a transmission section configured to periodically transmit information relating to the reception quality in accordance with timing specified from the radio base station. The transmission section transmits information relating to reception quality of a plurality of component carriers, at a same subframe, by use of PUSCH or a PUCCH format having a larger capacity as compared with a PUCCH format for existing systems in which a number of configured component carriers is five or less.

A method for serving node establishment includes sending, by a network device, information about a micro network time-frequency resource pool to a terminal; and sending measurement configuration information to the terminal. The measurement configuration information instructs the terminal to serve, when the terminal determines that the terminal meets a preset condition of a first measurement event, as a first serving node to send exclusive information of the first serving node on a first time-frequency resource in the micro network time-frequency resource pool according to the information about the micro network time-frequency resource pool, and the first measurement event is any one of the at least one measurement event.

The present invention discloses a method, device and system for uniformly controlling multiple smart devices. The method includes: receiving a control instruction for uniformly controlling the multiple smart devices, the control instruction including identifier information of the multiple smart devices to be controlled; acquiring signal noise parameters of the multiple smart devices according to the identifier information; calculating time differences between the multiple smart devices according to the signal noise parameters; formulating a uniform control policy for the multiple smart devices according to the time differences; and controlling the multiple smart devices are controlled according to the uniform control policy. In this way, the multiple smart devices may operate synchronously.

Systems and methods employ ultra-wide band (UWB) time of flight (ToF) distance measurements for locating a portable device relative to a target. Performance and reliability of UWB ToF distance measurements for locating the portable device is improved by adjusting a communication retry strategy based on signal quality calculations. The quality of an UWB signal received by each satellite of a base station is assessed based on factors like signal strength, noise level, and ratio of first path signal power to total signal power. This data is used to direct the retry strategy to the satellites receiving the best signal quality for these satellites to conduct ToF distance measurements with the portable device and/or to add correction factors to calculated ToF distance measurements.

A method for a wireless communications system is disclosed. In one example, user equipment (UE) maintains at least one serving beam, and uses a serving beam to perform an uplink (UL) transmission of data. The data is stored in an uplink hybrid automatic repeat request (UL HARQ) buffer. When there is a failure to track the serving beam, a beam recovery procedure is initialized. After successful completion of the beam recovery procedure, the UE retransmits the data stored in the UL HARQ buffer. The UE prevents the data from being flushed from the UL HARQ buffer when the failure to track the serving beam occurs, so that the data can be retransmitted.
