Controlling Dispatch of Radio Coverage Drones
A method for dispatching radio coverage drones to a geographical area of a failing node in a radio network, wherein the radio coverages drones are configured to re-establish operability of the failing node is disclosed. The method comprises steps being performed by a network node of generating (102) a radio coverage map, wherein the generated radio coverage map covers the geographical area of the failing node and geographical areas of adjacent nodes, identifies at least one mobile communication device having radio coverage from at least one of the adjacent nodes, and defines a size of the geographical area of the failing node, dynamically calibrating (103) the defined size of the geographical area of the failing node of the dynamically generated radio coverage map by: calculating (103a) a first distance between the identified mobile communication device and a selected one of the adjacent nodes, wherein the identified mobile communication device has coverage from the selected adjacent node while being geographically closer to the failing node than to the selected adjacent node, deducing (103b) a second distance between the failing node and the selected adjacent node, determining (103d) the actual size of the geographical area of the failing node based on the second and the first distance, and determining (104) a number of radio coverage drones to be dispatched to the geographical area of the failing node, wherein the number of radio coverage drones is based on to the actual size of the geographical area of the failing node. Corresponding computer program product, arrangement, network node, and system are also disclosed.
CONTENT TRANSMISSION METHOD AND APPARATUS USING TERMINAL STORAGE DEVICE IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
This disclosure relates to the 5th generation (5G) or pre-5G communication system for supporting a higher data rate after the 4th generation (4G) communication system such as Long Term Evolution (LTE). The method for operating the core network in a wireless communication system according to this disclosure comprises the processes of determining the content to store in the terminal based on the location information of the terminal, transmitting the content transmission command to the base station so as to transmit the content to the terminal in response to the determination, checking whether the terminal has entered the overload cell, and forming a D2D communication link between the terminal and another adjacent terminal when it is identified that the terminal has entered the overload cell.
Apparatuses and methods for configuration information retrieval
The present disclosure relates to radio network communication. In one of its aspects, the disclosure presented herein concerns a method for retrieving configuration information from a target Base Station (BS) in an E-UTRA New Radio-Dual Connectivity (EN-DC) wireless communication system. The method is performed by a source en-gNB. According to the method, a request message requesting configuration information from the target BS is transmitted to a first proxy evolved Node B (eNB). The request message comprises identifiers identifying the source en-gNB and the target BS, respectively.
CONTROL NETWORK NODE, NETWORK NODE AND METHODS PERFORMED THEREIN
A method performed by a control network node for handling a radio resource in a frequency band. The control network node receives an indication related to a performance of a first radio network node or a performance of user equipment served by the first radio network node. The control network node further triggers a performance adjustment related to at least one radio network node of a number of radio network nodes or to the first the radio network node based on the indication.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING PLURALITY OF VIRTUAL NETWORKS FOR SINGLE APPLICATION IN MOBILE COMMUNICATION NETWORK
The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5.sup.th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4.sup.th-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. The support of a virtual network group according to an embodiment of the present disclosure enables efficient communication of a terminal by using an external network, configured via an existing short-range communication network, or a private network between terminals based on 5G. Accordingly, a network operator or an entity in charge thereof enables terminals to interwork with equipment through communication via a virtual private network without changes in an existing communication method or a network structure, or without adding additional equipment.
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PROVIDING NETWORK SLICE

The disclosure is applied to intelligent services (e.g., smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car or connected car, healthcare, digital education, retail, security and safety-related service, etc.) based on 5G communication technology and IoT-related technology. The disclosure is about telecommunication and 5G network slicing technology. A method for defining a network slice template (NST) to provide network slice, for generating a network slice instance (NSI), and a system for managing them are provided.
Battery efficient wireless network connection and registration for a low-power device
A client device is configured to communicate with an access point over a wireless network, exchanging data with the access point over a selected communication channel. The client device stores an identifier of the selected communication channel. After the wireless connection to the access point has ended, the client device initiates a process to reconnect to the access point over the selected communication channel using the stored identifier.
Endpoint computing device multi-network slice remediation/productivity system
An endpoint computing device multi-network slice remediation/productivity system includes a core network system coupled to a RAN system and configured to allocate network slices and make them available for use in wireless communications via the RAN system. While operating in a pre-boot environment, an endpoint computing device determines that it is unable to transition to operating in a runtime environment and, in response, establishes a remediation network connection with a first network slice, and establishes a productivity network connection with a second network slice. While operating in a pre-boot environment and performing the remediation operations, the endpoint computing device then performs remediation operations via remediation wireless communications over the remediation network connection with the first network slice, and provides access to productivity application(s) that are configured to allow a user to perform productivity operations via productivity wireless communications over the productivity network connection with the second network slice.

Edge computing deployment scenarios
Technology is disclosed for a Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) management system operable for peer-to-peer (P2P) edge computing in a fifth generation (5G) computing network. The 3GPP management system can be configured to: identify a user plane function (UPF) based on quality of service (QoS) requirements. The 3GPP management system can be configured to request, from an edge computing management system, deployment of an application server (AS). The 3GPP management system can be configured to request a network functions virtualization (NFV) orchestrator (NFVO) to connect the UPF and the AS based on the QoS requirements.
