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 includes receiving, through RRC signaling from a base station, indicating a dormancy cell group having at least a first serving cell and a second serving cell, receiving a first indicator indicating a dormant behavior to the first serving cell is to be activated when the first serving cell is activated, receiving a second indicator indicating a dormant behavior to the second serving cell is to be deactivated when the second serving cell is activated. The method also includes receiving a cell activation indication to activate the first serving cell and the second serving cell, activating the first serving cell and the second serving cell, applying the dormant behavior to the first serving cell based on the first indicator when the first serving cell is activated, and not applying the dormant behavior to the second serving cell based on the second indicator when the second serving cell is activated.

The present specification relates to a method for receiving dormant bandwidth part (BWP) configuration information, performed by a terminal in a wireless communication system, the method comprising: receiving the dormant BWP configuration information from a base station, wherein the dormant BWP configuration information is information about a downlink BWP used as the dormant BWP among at least one downlink BWP set to the terminal; receiving, from the base station, downlink control information (DCI) notifying activation of the dormant BWP; and stopping monitoring of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) on the dormant BWP, wherein a BWP inactivity timer is not used on the basis of the activation of the dormant BWP, and the BWP inactivity timer is a timer for a transition to a default BWP.

Disclosed is a tangible article of manufacture having instructions stored thereon that, when executed, cause a machine to perform operations for tracking an operator and operator status using a safety device. The operations include programming a plurality of NFC tags with assignment information, wherein the assignment information is at least one of a location assignment for NFC tags being placed at particular locations and an instrument operator assignment for NFC tags distributed to multi-gas detection instrument operators. The instructions further include receiving temporary assignment information at the safety device when an NFC radio of the safety device is brought in proximity to at least one of the plurality of NFC tags; and tagging safety device data with the temporary assignment information.

Disclosed is a method performed by a network node, for an enhanced paging of a wireless device of a set of wireless devices. The method comprises controlling transmission, to the set of wireless devices, of a first paging message in a first paging period. The method comprises transmitting, to the set of wireless devices, in at least one physical signal between the first paging period and a second paging period succeeding the first paging period, control signaling indicating a change in paging of the second paging period, wherein the change in paging is with respect to the first paging period. The method comprises controlling, in accordance with the indicated change, transmission, to the set of wireless devices, of a second paging message in the second paging period.

A method is disclosed herein for reducing energy consumption in a wireless device. A wireless device (e.g., a user equipment) can provide an indication to a network node (e.g., a base station) to indicate that the wireless device will prioritize energy consumption reduction over some network requirements (e.g., latency and/or scheduling flexibility requirements). Accordingly, the wireless device can perform certain power-saving actions to reduce energy consumption. The network node, upon receiving the indication from the wireless device, can perform certain network-related actions to assist the wireless device in reducing energy consumption. As a result, it is possible for the wireless device to reduce energy consumption and complexity, thus helping to prolong battery life in the wireless device.

The present disclosure provides a DRX state configuration method, a UE and a network side device. The DRX state configuration method for the UE includes: receiving indication information transmitted by a network side device, the indication information being used to indicate at least one first DRX group for the UE to enter a DRX inactive state; and configuring the at least one first DRX group to enter the DRX inactive state in accordance with the indication information.

This application provides a data transmission method and apparatus. The method includes: receiving downlink data, where the downlink data is used to be sent to a terminal device; receiving first information from a second network device, where the first information is used to determine a time point for sending the downlink data to the second network device; and sending the downlink data to the second network device based on the first information, to avoid directly sending the downlink data to the second network device after receiving the downlink data, thereby relieving storage burden of the second network device.

A channel monitoring method is provided. The method includes that: a terminal device receives first indication information. The first indication information is used for determining at least one Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) search space of skipping PDCCH monitoring and/or a duration of skipping PDCCH monitoring for the terminal device.

Method and apparatus for downlink reception with C-WUS operation. The apparatus receives a C-WUS configuration configuring the UE to activate at least one cell of a base station from an inactive mode. The apparatus monitors for at least a WUS occasion from the at least one cell of the base station in the inactive mode. At least one downlink resource occasion is associated with the at least one cell in the inactive mode. The apparatus receives, from the base station, an active time indication indicating an active time for the at least one cell of the base station
