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. A method for utilizing an unlicensed frequency band as a supplementary band is used in a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system. A secondary component carrier management method of a base station according to the present disclosure includes configuring a secondary component carrier of a second band to a terminal connected to the base station in a first band, determining whether a packet is present over a bearer allowing transmission on the secondary component carrier, and deactivating/releasing the secondary component carrier when no packet is present over the carrier.

Communication System, Communication Device, and Management Method for Communication System
20170366365 · 2017-12-21 ·

A communication system includes communication devices configured to be connected to one another through a network. A root device which is one of the communication devices stores system information including address information and information on availability of communication of the communication devices. The root device is configured to transmit the system information periodically. Each of the communication devices is configured to send an acknowledgement message to the root device when receiving the system information. When an acknowledgement message from one of the communication devices has not been received by the root device, the root device is configured to rewrite the information on availability of communication of the communication device from which the acknowledgement message has not been received by the root device, as incommunicable, and to update the system information accordingly.

ARRANGEMENT FOR, AND METHOD OF, ESTABLISHING A BLUETOOTH® PAIRED CONNECTION BETWEEN A WIRELESS, ELECTRO-OPTICAL READER AND ONE OR MORE HOSTS
20170367124 · 2017-12-21 ·

A wireless, Bluetooth® paired connection is established between a wireless, electro-optical reader and a host by reading a multi-parameter, pairing symbol displayed by the host. An identification parameter is extracted from the pairing symbol to automatically identify the host, and one or more configuration parameters are substantially simultaneously extracted from the same pairing symbol to automatically configure the paired connection between the reader and the host.

CALL SETUP IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES

Examples described herein relate to apparatuses and methods for managing connection of a wireless communication device, including, but not limited to, receiving, by the wireless communication device, a call setup page from a network while in a connected mode, determining whether a data inactivity duration exceeds a threshold upon receiving the call setup page, transmitting a Scheduling Request (SR) probe to the network in response to determining that the data inactivity duration exceeds the threshold, determining whether an uplink grant corresponding to the SR probe has been received, and performing a local connection release in response to determining that the uplink grant corresponding to the SR probe has not been received.

TRACKING ACTIVITY DATA BETWEEN WEARABLE DEVICES PAIRED WITH A COMPANION DEVICE
20170366657 · 2017-12-21 ·

A set of wearable devices, each paired with a companion device, are configured to cumulatively maintain data about physical activities even though a user may switch between wearing them over a period of time. For example, a streak of workouts over many days can be maintained while the user switches between two watches over that period of time.

Network Slice Discovery And Selection

An NR network slicing architecture may be used to facilitate network slice discovery and selection. Mechanisms to discover and select network slices may differ depending on whether a user equipment is in an idle mode or a connected mode. Further, in various examples, the network slice discovery and selection may be performed by a UE, a radio access network (RAN), or a core network (CN), based on a variety of selection criteria.

COMMUNICATION APPARATUS THAT WIRELESSLY COMMUNICATES WITH EXTERNAL APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
20170367126 · 2017-12-21 ·

A communication apparatus capable of achieving both of improvement in operability and suppression of battery consumption. A camera as the communication apparatus wirelessly communicates with one of a plurality of external devices including a remote controller and a smartphone. The state of the camera is switched between an operating state and a power-saving state in which power consumption is smaller than in the operating state. In the power-saving state, when a connection request is received from the remote controller as a device for non-continuous connection, a process for establishing a connection with the remote controller is started, and the camera is shifted to the operating state. In the power-saving state, when a connection request is received from the smartphone as a device for continuous connection, a process for establishing a connection with the smartphone is started, and the camera is not shifted to the operating state.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NETWORK RESOURCE OPTIMIZATION
