An electronic device and a method of operating the same are provided. The electronic device includes a temperature sensor configured to measure a temperature of at least a part of the electronic device, a display, a communication circuit supporting first cellular communication and/or second cellular communication, an application processor, and a communication processor, wherein the application processor is configured to identify whether a deactivated state of the display is maintained for a designated time or longer while being connected via the first cellular communication, in response to the deactivated state maintained for the designated time or longer, identify whether each of the temperature measured by the temperature sensor and a throughput of data transmission via the first cellular communication satisfies a designated condition, and in response to the temperature and the throughput each satisfying the designated condition, control the communication processor to perform one or more operations for performing releasing of the first cellular communication.

An indicator in a master AP from among a plurality of APs obtains communication quality of communication with an AP which is a communication partner. In the case where the obtained communication quality is less than a threshold, the indicator causes the plurality of APs including the master AP to perform cooperative operation to transmit data. In the case where the obtained communication quality is not less than the threshold, the indicator causes the plurality of APs including the master AP to stop the cooperative operation.

To manage configuration, a UE receives, by processing hardware and from a radio access network (RAN), conditional configuration information including (i) a conditional configuration related to a base station operating in the RAN, and (ii) a condition to be satisfied before the UE applies the configuration (702). The UE receives, by the processing hardware and from the RAN, a message including an indication that the UE is to add, modify, or release a radio bearer (RB) (704), and determines, by the processing hardware, to ignore the conditional configuration in response to receiving the message (706).

A processing method of configuration information of bearer, a network device and a terminal are provided in the present disclosure. The method of configuration information of bearer applied to a network device includes the following steps: when a Secondary Cell Group (SCG) or a Primary SCG Cell (PSCell) enters into a suspend state or a dormant state, modifying, by the network device, configuration information of a bearer via a signaling, to enable a configured uplink bearer to transmit on a Master Cell Group (MCG).

Methods and apparatuses for scheduled link muting at an access point. An access point (AP) multi-link device (MLD) comprises a transceiver and a processor operably coupled to the transceiver. The processor is configured to generate an information element (IE) configured to indicate unavailability of a link, the information element comprising an indication of a duration of link disablement; and when a value of the indicated duration of the link disablement has elapsed, enable the link, wherein the IE is included in a broadcast frame, and the transceiver is configured to transmit the broadcast frame.

A configuration utilising L1/L2 signaling to activate or deactivate a direct link in dual or multi-connectivity with relaying devices. The apparatus communicates with a base station using a direct link and using a relay link. The relay link comprises a side link between a first UE and a second UE and a second direct link between the second UE and the base station. The apparatus transmits or receives a request to deactivate the direct link based on a determination by at least one of the base station, the first UE, or the second UE that the direct link between the first UE and the base station is to be deactivated. The request to deactivate the direct link comprises L1 or L2 signaling. The apparatus receives a deactivation command to deactivate the direct link.

A user equipment (UE) and a method for small data transmission (SDT) are provided. The method includes receiving a Radio Resource Control (RRC) release message from a Base Station (BS), the RRC release message indicating an SDT configuration including a Configured Grant (CG) configuration and a timer; initiating a transmission on an Uplink (UL) resource while the UE is in an RRC_INACTIVE state, the UL resource being either configured by the CG configuration or scheduled by a UL grant from the BS; starting or restarting the timer after initiating the transmission; and monitoring a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) addressed to a specific Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RNTI) on a specific search space while the timer is running.

A method of handling invalid PDU session during handover procedure between non-3GPP access and 3GPP access in a mobile communication network is proposed. A UE establishes a PDU session over a first RAT, and then tries to handover the PDU session from the first RAT to a second RAT. However, at the network side, the PDU session over the first RAT does not exist anymore and the network considers the PDU session to be invalid. The network thus sends a PDU session establishment reject message back to the UE, with a 5GSM status message cause value #54 indicating “PDU session does not exist”. At the UE side, the PDU session over the first RAT is still valid (e.g., not inactive). In order to resynchronize with the network, the UE performs a PDU session release procedure to release the PDU session over the first RAT.
