A communication terminal is provided for supporting a periodical data flow by forwarding messages received from a communication network to an external node not synchronised with the communication network. The communication terminal is configured to obtain one or more timing adjustment indications from an access node of the communication network and adjust the transmission and/or reception timing of the periodical data flow in dependence on the timing adjustment indication(s). The one or more timing adjustment indications are based on clock mismatch information between the communication terminal and the external node and a holding time.

Wireless timing adjustment for periodical traffic of multiple time domains

The present disclosure provides a network entity for a wireless network system. The network entity is configured to obtain an ingress time of a received packet, the ingress time indicating the time at which the packet enters the network system, determine time information regarding the packet based on the ingress time, and provide the time information to another network entity. A further network entity for a wireless network system is configured to obtain time information regarding a received packet from another network entity, and obtain an egress time of the packet, the egress time indicating a time at which the packet leaves the network system, based on the time information. This disclosure also relates to the network entities that are configured to synchronize an internal time valid at the network entities with an external time valid at an external network entity.

Network entities and methods for a wireless network system for determining time information

The present disclosure relates to time-aware Quality-of-Service (QoS), in particular techniques for providing time-aware QoS in communication systems such as 5G NR (New Radio). In particular the disclosure relates to a device for translating between a first communication network, in particular a deterministic communication network, and a second communication network, in particular a mobile communication network, in particular a 5G communication network, wherein the device comprises: an application function that is configured to translate between Quality-of-Service (QoS) parameters of the first communication network and QoS parameters of the second communication network; a QoS profile comprising the QoS parameters of the first communication network translated by the application function and, optionally, additional QoS parameters originating from the second communication network; and a signaling procedure configured to exchange the translated QoS parameters within the second communication network.

Time-aware quality-of-service in communication systems

A Quality of Service (QOS) framework of mobile and wireless communication networks, particularly, the Fifth Generation (5G) QoS framework include a Radio Access Network (RAN) entity and User Equipment (UE) for enabling RAN awareness of a tolerance of an application to transmission failures of application data, and QoS treatment based on this resilience. The RAN entity is configured to receive information indicating at least one resilience parameter of the application, from a control entity, another RAN entity, and/or UE. The at least one resilience parameter is based on the tolerance of the application to transmission failures, in particular, consecutive transmission failures.

Network entity and user equipment for exploiting resilience to consecutive transmission failures

A device translates between a first communication network, in particular a deterministic communication network, and a second communication network, in particular a mobile communication network, in particular a 5G communication network. The device is configured to execute an application function that is configured to translate between Quality-of-Service, QoS, parameters of the first communication network and QoS parameters of the second communication network. A QoS profile includes the QoS parameters of the first communication network translated by the application function and, optionally, additional QoS parameters originating from the second communication network. The device is further configured to execute a signaling procedure configured to exchange the translated QoS parameters within the second communication network.

A network operator apparatus, a teleoperation application (TOApplication) apparatus, and an apparatus for a teleoperable vehicle are provided. The network operator apparatus creates a network slice for teleoperating the teleoperable vehicle along at least one route, receives a slice configuration request comprising QoS for the at least one route from the TOApplication apparatus, and configures the network slice to support the QoS. The TOApplication apparatus communicates towards the network operator apparatus, a request for creating the network slice, receives a teleoperation service request comprising a set of teleoperation configurations from the teleoperable vehicle, maps each teleoperation configuration to a respective QoS and sends the slice configuration request comprising the QoS to the network operator apparatus. The apparatus for the teleoperable vehicle sends the teleoperation service request to the TOApplication apparatus and controls the route to be followed by the teleoperable vehicle based on information from the TOApplication apparatus.

A Motion Aware Scheduler (MAS) is configured to obtain, from a controller through an interface, Motion State Information (MSI) for a motion of at least one movable apparatus, also configured to obtain, from a physical layer of a radio node comprising the MAS, Channel State Information (CSI), also configured to associate the CSI and the MSI in order to obtain a mapping information, and also configured to store the mapping information in order to obtain a stored mapping information.

Motion awareness-based wireless access

An apparatus for managing communication links with a plurality of traffic nodes registered with a radio network configured to receive a request from a first traffic node to establish a communication link with a second traffic node, which is one of the plurality of traffic nodes. The apparatus further receives, from the first traffic node, object description information associated with the request, compares the object description information with stored information relating to at least some of the plurality of traffic nodes, determines, based on the comparison, a likelihood that the object description information pertains to the second traffic node and decides, based on the determination, whether to grant the request. The apparatus is able to act as a traffic node manager for the radio network and could be a network node such as a Base Station or Base Transceiver Station or a dedicated vehicle identity manager for example.

Method and apparatus for managing communication links with a plurality of traffic nodes

The disclosure relates to a radio transmitter device (and method) comprising a processor configured to: modulate a data frame onto a radio resource based on a transmission waveform, wherein the transmission waveform is formed according to a pulse shaping scheme; allocate a section of the radio resource for carrying information of the pulse shaping scheme; and transmit a signal waveform with selected pulse shaping scheme over the radio resource, wherein the signal waveform includes the information of the pulse shaping scheme and this information is sent over the allocated section of the radio resource. The disclosure further relates to a radio receiver device receiving such signal waveform.
