A user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network determines a snapshot value of a serving link signal received quality while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements. Responsive to detecting, while the UE is permitted to refrain from performing neighbor link measurements, that signal received quality of a serving link has dropped by at least a threshold amount below the snapshot value, the UE performs a neighbor link measurement.

According to embodiments described herein there is provided a wireless terminal device and a network node in a communications network. The wireless terminal device being operable in a plurality of modes comprising a first mode, in which the wireless terminal device is able to receive paging messages from the wireless communications network, and a second mode in which the wireless terminal device is unable to receive paging messages from the wireless communications network. The method in the wireless device comprising receiving a signal from a network node operable in the wireless communications network, wherein the signal comprises information related to the paging occasions; and responsive to a determination to that signal, operating in at least the second mode.

An access point (AP) that supports the IEEE 802.11ba protocol may transmit a frame including a physical layer (PHY) preamble to one or more stations (STAs) over a channel. The PHY preamble may include a plurality of repeated modulated legacy signal (L-SIG) fields to spoof a recipient of the frame and protect a wake up signal (WUS) to be subsequently transmitted by the AP. The AP may transmit the WUS to at least a first STA of the one or more STAs, wherein the at least the first STA is a IEEE 802.11ba compliant STA.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) of a group of UEs may receive, from a group member of the group of UEs, traffic information including a transmission schedule associated with traffic of the group member UE. The UE may determine a discontinuous reception configuration for the group of UEs based at least in part on the transmission schedule. The discontinuous reception configuration may include a discontinuous reception schedule for the group of UEs. The UE may transmit, to the group of UEs, the discontinuous reception configuration.

Methods, apparatus and systems for determining a transmission resource for transmitting a wake-up signal in a wireless communication are described. In one embodiment, a method performed by a wireless communication node is disclosed. The method comprises: determining an initial transmission resource for wake-up signal (WUS) transmission; determining an updated transmission resource for WUS transmission based at least on the initial transmission resource and an offset; and transmitting, on the updated transmission resource, a WUS to at least one wireless communication device, wherein the offset is selected from a plurality of predetermined values based on a location of a paging occasion (PO) corresponding to the WUS.

This application provides a terminal device and a communication method. The terminal device is in a dual-connectivity network including a long term evolution (LTE) link and a new radio (NR) link, and when the terminal device detects that the terminal device is in a power saving mode, and/or when the terminal device detects that battery power of the terminal device is less than or equal to a first preset value, and/or when the terminal device detects that temperature of a rear cover of the terminal device is greater than or equal to a second preset value, the terminal device releases the NR link, and uses the LTE link for communication.

Disclosed are channel monitoring and a control method and apparatus thereof, for achieving an adaptive Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) monitoring solution, achieving adaptive adjustment of PDCCH monitoring according to a service condition of a terminal, and achieving an effect of power saving of the terminal. The channel monitoring control method provided in the present application comprises: determining PDCCH monitoring solution instruction information; and sending the PDCCH monitoring solution instruction information to the terminal for instructing the terminal to adjust the PDCCH monitoring solution.

Methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for wireless local area network (WLAN) private control channel are disclosed. Apparatuses of a non-access point (AP) or station (STA) are disclosed, where the apparatuses comprise processing circuitry configured to: decode a broadcast sensing parameters element, decode a broadcast target wakeup time (TWT) element, the TWT element comprising an indication of a TWT service period (SP), decode, during the TWT service period (SP), a sensing null data packet announcement (NDPA) frame, and decode, a short interframe space (SIFS) after receiving the sensing NDPA frame, an initiator-to-responder (I2R) null data packet (NDP).

The present disclosure discloses a signal receiving and sending method, a node and a network side device. The information receiving method includes obtaining target information, wherein the target information includes first information and/or second information; obtaining wake-up information according to the target information, wherein the wake-up information obtained according to the first information includes at least one of area-level wake-up information, cell-level wake-up information, or node group-level wake-up information, wake-up information obtained according to the second information includes at least one of the node group-level wake-up information and node-level wake-up information; performing waking up or continuing to sleep according to indication of the wake-up information.

In an aspect, a BS configured as a master node (MN) of a master cell group (MCG) acts as a relay for at least downlink C-Plane communications from a secondary node (SN) of a secondary cell group (SCG) to a UE during a period where the SCG is dormant with downlink and uplink U-Plane communications disabled.
