In response to a first communication device determining that a specific wireless local area network (WLAN) communication link has been negotiated with a second communication device for traffic corresponding to a first traffic identifier (TID), the first communication device transmits packets corresponding to the first TID to the second communication device only via the specific WLAN communication link. In response to the first communication device determining that no WLAN communication link has been negotiated with the second communication device for traffic corresponding to a second TID, transmitting, by the first communication device, packets corresponding to the second TID to the second communication device via multiple WLAN communication links.

Method and UE are provided for scheduling for PDCCH PEI detection. In particular, a BS can transmit a higher layer signaling to a UE. The higher layer signaling includes a configuration of at least one configurable PDCCH candidate number for PEI procedure used under a non-active mode. After receiving the higher layer signaling, the UE performs blind decoding under the non-active mode according to the configuration of the at least one configurable PDCCH candidate number.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A communications device may transmit, to a second communications, a request to update a phase shifter configuration. The first communications device may receive, from the second communications device and in response to the request, a response accepting the request to update the phase shifter configuration. The first communications device may then transmit, to the second communications device, an uplink transmission in accordance with the updated phase shifter configuration based on receiving the response. The first communications device may include a first user equipment (UE) and the second communications device may include a second UE or a base station.

A method of reducing a power consumption of a wireless device according to one embodiment includes performing, by the wireless device, a calibration of wireless communication circuitry of the wireless device in response to establishing a wireless communication connection with a wireless access point, determining, by the wireless device, a number of disconnections between the wireless device and the wireless access point over a predefined period of time, and increasing, by the wireless device, a sleep interval of the wireless communication circuitry of the wireless device in response to determining the number of disconnections between the wireless device and the wireless access point over the predefined period of time is less than a threshold number of disconnections.

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. The present invention presents a method for efficiently estimating a physical channel and, according to the present invention, a terminal of a communication system receives a synchronization signal from a base station, receives a broadcast channel from the base station, and can estimate the broadcast channel on the basis of the synchronization signal.

A method for a terminal receiving a signal in a wireless communication system, according to one embodiment of the present invention, may comprise: receiving a specific signal giving an early indication of whether paging DCI will be provided in a PO configured for a paging operation in an idle mode or deactivation mode; and, on the basis of the specific signal, determining whether to skip a paging DCI detection procedure, wherein the specific signal may be a PDCCH signal carrying specific DCI configured for the idle mode or deactivation mode, and even if the specific DCI indicates that the paging DCI will be provided in at least one PO, on the basis that the specific DCI may be connected to a plurality of POs, a terminal may decide to skip the paging DCI detection procedure if the at least one PO in which the paging DCI is provided is not configured in the terminal.

The present disclosure relates to transmitting and receiving a group wake-up signal (WUS) in conjunction with an ungrouped WUS. A base station may group one or more UEs in a UE group, while other UEs may not be assigned to a UE group. The configuration of WUS resources and WUS sequences for grouped UEs and other UEs is a challenge. The base station may transmit, to one or more UEs in the UE group, a resource allocation of a group WUS resource within a set of WUS resources associated with a paging occasion that is assigned to the one or more UEs in the UE group. A UE, after receiving the resource allocation, may determine a location of the group WUS resource within the set of WUS resources. The UE may monitor for a group WUS at the determined location in the resource allocation of the group WUS resource.

In an electronic device and an operation method thereof, the electronic device may include: a memory; communication circuitry configured to transmit and receive data via a node; and a communication processor, wherein the communication processor may be configured to: identify a first time of receiving a paging message and a second time of receiving a synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block; determine, based on the first time and the second time satisfying a specified condition, the activation time of the communication circuitry based on the reception time of the paging message; receive a paging message; temporarily store the received paging message in the memory; and process the stored paging message based on an SS/PBCH block received after reception of the paging message.

Aspects of the invention are directed towards a system and method for saving power of a battery associated with item/s. One or more embodiments of the invention describe the method comprising steps of receiving a location and a charged status of a battery associated with each of one or more items placed inside a container. The method further describes steps of assigning a cluster to a group of items from the one or more items based on the location of each of the one or more items and identifying a master item from the group of items based on the charged status of each item in the cluster. The method also describes steps of transmitting a message to the master item for sensing a parameter for the group of items in the cluster and receiving a sensed parameter from the master item for the group of items.

A device including one or more processors configured to: determine a disconnection margin value based on: a current transmission operation state including one or more transmission control parameters, and a current transmission rate; receive a power back-off (PBO) request including a PBO value; perform a comparison of the PBO value to the disconnection margin value; and determine whether to apply a PBO according to the PBO request based on the comparison.
