A scheduling method includes controlling, by a terminal, a scheduling speed of broadcast scheduling events when a first preset condition is met. The first preset condition includes that a quantity of broadcast scheduling events in a preset time window is greater than or equal to a first preset value. The broadcast scheduling event is distributing a broadcast to a receiver. The receiver includes at least one of software, a component, or a program.

A network entity, such as a user equipment (UE), may request that a network provide multicast and broadcast services, e.g., where the request includes entity preferences such as network slice selection information. The network may provide information regarding provision of such services, where the information may include, for example, whether a service will be provided via a user plane or a control plane connection, network slice information, additional connections to be formed, separate encryption for such connections, etc. A Multicast/Broadcast Network Function (MBNF) may be used to establish such connections and manage a broadcast and multicast sessions. The MBNF may, for example, manage groups of entities, check an entity's access privileges for services, communicate with the a Management and Network Orchestration (MANO) system to reserve resources, and send data to entities over a shared control plane connection.

This application discloses a communications system, a communication method, and an apparatus thereof. The system includes: a multicast session management network element, an access and mobility management network element and a user plane function network element. The multicast session management network element sends a first multicast session request carrying a multicast session context to the access and mobility management network element to request to establish a multicast session based on the multicast session context; and sends a second multicast session request to the user plane function network element, where the second multicast session request carries user plane forwarding-related information indicating a user plane forwarding rule of the multicast session. The access and mobility management network element sends the first multicast session request to an access network node. The user plane function network element sets, based on the user plane forwarding-related information, the user plane forwarding rule of the multicast session.

The present disclosure provides a network off-line model processing method, an artificial intelligence processing device and related products, where the related products include a combined processing device. The combined processing device includes the artificial intelligence processing device, a general-purpose interconnection interface, and other processing devices, where the artificial intelligence processing device interacts with the other processing devices to jointly complete computation designated by users. The embodiments of the present disclosure can accelerate the operation of the network off-line model.

A queue management ultra-wideband (UWB) automated teller machine (ATM) transaction pre-staging systems and methods for use with an ATM server, at least one UWB-enabled wireless portable electronic device, and a plurality of UWB-enabled ATMs are disclosed. Transactions are pre-staged by the UWB-enabled devices with the ATM servers. Queue wait times at each UWB-enabled ATM can be determined based on how many transactions have been scheduled for the ATM, how many customers are currently waiting at the ATM, and what currency resources are required by the pre-staged transactions. Geographical distances between the user and the ATMs can be determined. Based on historical customer ATM usage preferences, the distance to various ATMs, and queue wait times, the ATM server may make recommendations regarding which ATM would be optimal for the customer to use to complete the pre-staged transaction.

A multicast broadcast service controller is disclosed. The MBSC processes multicast broadcast data streams for transmission to access service network gateways or base stations. The MBSC includes a MBSC core processor for establishing time synchronization information used by the access service network gateways or base stations to synchronously transmit data streams. The MBSC core processor selects streams for transmission in a time diversity interval (TDI) and builds multicast broadcast (MBS) region content based on the selected streams and configuration information. The MBS region content includes timing synchronization information, resource information and MBS region content location information. A MBS region distribution module (MRD) transmits the MBS region content to the access service network gateways or base stations.

A radio terminal performs radio communication with a base station in a mobile communication system. The radio terminal includes a controller configured to perform processing of transmitting an aperiodic CSI feedback related to a downlink channel state to the base station. In response to a predetermined condition being satisfied, the controller performs multiplex transmission in which uplink data in which the aperiodic CSI feedback is multiplexed is transmitted to the base station, by using a PUSCH resource.

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for the configuration of user device(s) for reception of point-to-multipoint transmission are provided. One method may include receiving, at a user equipment, a configuration for point-to-multipoint reception of a group-common transport channel. The configuration may include a group-common signaling configuration for a group of user equipment. The method may also include receiving, at the user equipment, a point-to-multipoint reconfiguration message using the group-common signaling configuration on the group-common transport channel from a device (e.g., a network node). The point-to-multipoint reconfiguration message may include an updated point-to-multipoint configuration. The method may then include receiving point-to-multipoint data, from the device on the group-common transport channel, based on the updated point-to-multipoint configuration.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media described herein can be operable to facilitate an IGMP fastleave using a listener reference count. A gateway proxy saves each listener for every specific multicast group, thus the gateway knows if a listener is the last one in the group when it receives a leave report from a listener. The gateway leaves the group immediately without sending specific query if the leave report comes from the last listener of the current group, thereby significantly reducing the leave latency. Otherwise, the standard procedure wins, and the gateway sends out a specific query when the leave report is not from the last listener.

Wireless communication devices, systems, and methods related to mechanisms to implement improved RAR decoding performance and resource utilization efficiency in a RACH procedure. A PDCCH with common search space encodes a DCI with configuration information that schedules separate PDSCHs for different UEs/UE groups. When sending a RAR message, the PDCCH includes a DCI with a configuration field to signal multiple DMRS resources with corresponding PDSCH. Each sub-field of the configuration field may include one or multiple bits. When one bit per sub-field, the bit is a flag that when asserted leads the UE to blind decode the PDSCH associated with that DMRS resource. When multiple bits, it includes a flag field as well as one or more bits that include least significant bits of a UE identifier (or group identifier). The UE locates its identifier (or group identifier), and limits decoding to that PDSCH with corresponding DMRS resource.
