This disclosure provides systems, methods and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing data traffic in restricted target wake time (TWT) service periods (SPs). In some aspects, an access point (AP) may transmit a packet, at the beginning of a restricted TWT SP, that signals all non-member wireless stations (STAs) to defer access to the wireless medium for at least a threshold duration. Upon receiving the packet, any non-member STAs that are associated with the AP may set their network allocation vectors (NAVs) according to the duration indicated by a duration field of the received packet. In some implementations, low-latency STAs that are members of the TWT SP may not set their NAVs according to the duration field of the received packet. Instead, the low-latency STAs may access the wireless medium before the NAVs associated with the non-member STAs expire.

A wireless communication protocol using CSMA/CA, EDCA and R-TWT to prioritize RTA traffic transmissions. During an R-TWT SP, the RTA traffic is prioritized for transmission and mechanisms are provided for assuring proper indications and termination of the R-TWT SP. During this process, member STAs communicate with the R-TWT scheduling AP when they have no more frames to send. The R-TWT scheduling AP can also terminate the R-TWT SP before its scheduled end time, allowing non-member STAs to immediately contend for the channel. In addition, the R-TWT scheduling AP can exchange frames with STAs, that have an R-TWT feature but are not R-TWT member STAs, after frame exchanges with the R-TWT member STAs during the R-TWT SP have been completed.

A method by which a terminal transmits data in an unlicensed band, and an apparatus using the method are provided. The method comprises: transmitting data to a base station through a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) in the unlicensed band; and receiving, from the base station, acknowledgement/negative acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) information about the data in the unlicensed band, wherein the terminal receives, from the base station, timeline information notifying of a time relationship between the PUSCH transmission time point and the ACK/NACK information reception time point.

The embodiments of the present invention relate to apparatuses and methods for resource management in a multi-carrier system wherein a plurality of component carriers (CCs) is defined per cell. According to a method in an apparatus corresponding to a radio base station, a message is assembled comprising information on the structure of the cell served by the radio base station; the information including one or more CCs used in the cell that is/are available for a user equipment for performing initial access in the cell. The method also comprises, transmitting the assembled message to the user equipment and indicating to the user equipment to what resources to use for random access in the cell. The exemplary embodiments of the present invention also relates to a method in the user equipment, to a radio base station and to a user equipment.

An access method and apparatus, and a communications system is provided One example method includes: The network control apparatus sends access configuration information, where the access configuration information configures an access manner of the at least one second apparatus, and the access manner includes a first access manner or a second access manner. A second apparatus in the at least one second apparatus sends access information of the second apparatus to the network control apparatus based on the access configuration information, where the access information requests access. The network control apparatus receives the access information from the second apparatus.

The present disclosure relates to a wireless communication system. Specifically, provided is a method and an apparatus for supporting same, the method comprising the steps of obtaining random access procedure-related message A, message A including a physical random access channel (PRACH) preamble and a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH); transmitting message A; and receiving random access procedure-related message B as a response to message A, wherein the PUSCH comprises a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS), and PRACH preamble is mapped to (i) one or more DM-RS ports and (ii) one or more DM-RS sequences on the basis of indices of respective (i) one or more DM-RS ports and indices of respective (ii) one or more DM-RS sequences.

The disclosure relates to an electronic device and method for a wireless communication system, and a storage medium. Various embodiments regarding beam management are described. In one embodiment, an electronic device for a terminal device side in a wireless communication system can comprise a processing circuit system. The processing circuit system can be configured to obtain random access configuration information, and send a random access preamble based on the random access configuration information, so as to indicate one or more transmission beams of a base station side, in a downlink, paired with one or more receiving beams at the terminal device side.

A user equipment for a mobile telecommunications system, including circuitry configured to communicate with a base station of the mobile telecommunications system, wherein the circuitry is further configured to: detect scheduling information for on-demand multicast broadcast service system information, wherein the scheduling information is included in predetermined system information transmitted from the base station to the user equipment; and request the on-demand multicast broadcast service system information based on the detected scheduling information.

An application method implemented by a device desiring to be an applicant for relaying data between an object and a base station in a cellular network, the object and the device being synchronized and connected to the base station. The device emits a request, over a random-access channel, to request resources of the network to relay the data, the request including an identifier of the object. If the base station selects a device from among the applicant devices, it allocates resources in the network for this device and sends a positive response to the selected device.
