Systems, methods, devices, and instrumentalities are described herein related to conditional triggers for flight path update indications. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may receive configuration information. The configuration information may indicate a trigger condition (e.g., threshold) associated with enabling transmission of a flight path update indication. The WTRU may determine that the threshold associated with enabling transmission of the flight path update indication is satisfied. Based on the threshold being satisfied, the flight path update indication may be transmitted. The WTRU may receive a request to transmit the updated flight path information and transmit the updated flight path information.

Conditional trigger for flight path update indication

A terminal device and network infrastructure equipment communicate in accordance with a first radio access technology on a primary cell supporting a primary component carrier on radio resources within a first frequency band and a secondary cell supporting a secondary component carrier on radio resources within a second frequency band. The terminal device is also operable to use radio resources within the second frequency band for communicating in accordance with a second radio access technology, e.g. Wi-Fi. The network infrastructure equipment establishes a configuration of radio resources within the second frequency band for use by the terminal device for communications with the network infrastructure equipment in accordance with the first radio access technology and communicates an indication of this to the terminal device. The terminal device establishes a configuration of radio resources for use by the terminal device for communications in accordance with the second radio access technology and determines if there is any overlap in the radio resources configured for use by the two different radio access technologies, and if so communicates an indication of this to the network infrastructure equipment. In response the network infrastructure equipment establishes a replacement configuration of radio resources for communications with the terminal device in accordance with the first radio access technology, wherein the replacement configuration avoids the radio resources indicated as being subject to overlap, and transmits an indication of the replacement configuration to the terminal device.

Telecommunications apparatus and methods

A method for controlling a connection procedure for a terminal device requesting a radio connection to a cell supported by network infrastructure equipment in a wireless telecommunication system, the method comprising: determining, at the terminal device, that a request to connect to the cell supported by the network infrastructure equipment is to be made, establishing, at the terminal device, application information relating to an operating context for the terminal device; transmitting a connection request message from the terminal device to the network infrastructure equipment, wherein the connection request message comprises a request for the terminal device to connect to the cell and an indication of the application information; and determining, at the network infrastructure equipment, whether to allow the request for the terminal device to connect to the cell based, at least in part, on the application information received by the network infrastructure equipment from the terminal device.

A communications device that, when in an inactive state, transmits a first signal comprising a random access preamble and a first portion of data to infrastructure equipment, receives a random access response message from the infrastructure equipment, and transmits a second signal comprising a second portion of the data to the infrastructure equipment.

Communications device which communicates with infrastructure equipment in an inactive state

A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may comprise a processor and memory. The processor and memory may be configured to receive configuration information indicating measurement relaxation criteria for radio link monitoring (RLM) or beam failure detection (BFD) and a prohibit time period for reporting a measurement relaxation state. The WTRU may determine that the measurement relaxation state of the WTRU has changed based on the measurement relaxation criteria. The WTRU may determine that the prohibit time period has ended. The WTRU may send a report based on the determination that the measurement relaxation state has changed and the determination that the prohibit time period has ended. The report may include an indication of a measurement relaxation state.

A communications device configured to communicate in a wireless system having a wireless access interface providing communications resources arranged in time divided units of a host radio access technology, RAT, frequency bandwidth, the time divided units and the host RAT interface frequency bandwidth being arranged into one or more virtual RAT interfaces. The communications device configured to receive the signals transmitted via one of the virtual RAT interfaces in accordance with different communications parameters from the host RAT interface providing different characteristics for communicating data represented by the signals with respect to a characteristic of signals transmitted according to communications parameters in the communications resources of the host RAT interface.

A method of performing cell reselection by a wireless communications device comprises measuring a signal strength of radio signals received from a serving cell, determining whether the signal strength of the signals received from the serving cell is lower than a first predetermined signal strength threshold, if the signal strength is lower than the first predetermined signal strength threshold measuring a signal strength of a neighbor cell operating on the same frequency as the serving cell to generate signal strength measurements at a first rate, and in accordance with the signal strength measurements of the neighbor cell generated at the first rate determining whether to reselect to the neighbor cell.

A mobile telecommunications system anchor base station for a mobile telecommunications system is described. The mobile telecommunications system has at least one anchor cell and at least one slave cell which is associated with the anchor cell. The anchor base station has a circuitry which is configured to transmit system information based on beam information.

Base station that transmits system information based on beam information and user equipment

A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may comprise a processor. The processor may be configured to receive (e.g., via broadcast) configuration information indicating a time that a same-PCI satellite switch may occur. In one or more examples, the WTRU may transmit assistance information prior to the same-PCI satellite switch. The assistance information may, for example, include a re-synchronization duration, capabilities to synchronization procedures, and/or a time indication for resuming TX and/or RX. The WTRU may receive configuration information for satellite re-synchronization. The WTRU may perform the same-PCI satellite switch to the second satellite, for example, based on the configuration information indicating the time for the same-PCI satellite switch. In performing the same-PCI satellite switch, the WTRU may start a resynchronization gap, suspend UL TX and/or DL RX, and/or perform re-synchronization procedure(s).
