Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for power saving for reduced capability devices. The method may include receiving a higher layer configuration from a network element. The higher layer configuration may include a slot type configuration for at least one of a first bandwidth communication and a second bandwidth communication. The method may also include performing, based on the higher layer configuration, in a certain slot, data communication with the network element under one of the first bandwidth communication or the second bandwidth communication.

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.

Methods and systems for dynamically adjusting a data rate in a wireless connection. The method and system include a source device and a sink device configured to establish a wireless connection. The quality of the wireless connection is monitored, and, should the quality degrade so as to satisfy a triggering event, the source controller can adjust the data rate, e.g., the bit rate or sample rate, used to reduce the number of dropped, lost, or retransmitted packets. The reduction in bit rate and/or sample rate results in packets of decreased size and additional unused air-time. The unused air-time provided can be filled with at least a portion of a frame of data originally associated with another packet. This will result in at least one packet being free to include additional retransmission packets. Additionally, should the quality of the connection improve, the source controller can adjust increase the data rate accordingly.

A communication system uses multiple communications links, preferably links that use different communications media. The multiple communications links may include a high latency/high bandwidth link using a fiber-optic cable configured to carry large volumes of data but having a high latency. The communications links may also include a low latency/low bandwidth link implemented using skywave propagation of radio waves and configured to carry smaller volumes of data with a lower latency across a substantial portion of the earth's surface. The two communications links may be used together to coordinate various activities such as the buying and selling of financial instruments.

A wireless communication terminal operating as a Station (STA) is provided. The wireless communication terminal includes a wireless transceiver and a controller. The wireless transceiver performs wireless transmission and reception to and from an Access Point (AP). The controller receives a trigger frame including a Resource Unit (RU) Allocation subfield which has one bit to indicate support of 320 MHz bandwidth from the AP via the wireless transceiver, determines a combination of RUs to be used in a Trigger-Based Physical layer Protocol Data Unit (TB PPDU) according to the RU Allocation subfield, and sends the TB PPDU for Uplink (UL) data transmission to the AP via the wireless transceiver in response to the trigger frame.

According to an embodiment herein a method performed by a radio network node for handling communication of data for a user equipment, UE, served in a service area associated with the radio network node in a wireless communication network is herein provided. The radio network node receives an indication from the UE, wherein the indication indicates a priority level for bandwidth allocation compared to other UEs. The radio network node further allocates a first bandwidth out of a total bandwidth to the UE for communication, wherein the first bandwidth is allocated in size based on the indication.
