The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatuses. According to some embodiments of the disclosure, a method includes: receiving, at a communication device, a configuration message including a threshold to configure the communication device; and transmitting, from the communication device, a congestion indication if an occupied buffer size of the communication device is equal to or greater than the threshold.

Method and apparatus for radio link flow control

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for transmitting and/or receiving device information in a context setup request. One method () includes transmitting () a context setup request to a first device. The context setup request includes information corresponding to a second device. The method () includes receiving () a response to the context setup request.

Device information in a context setup request

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for transmitting and/or receiving a buffer status report indicator. One method () includes determining (), at a medium access control entity of a backhaul node, a buffer status report including an indicator indicating that the buffer status report corresponds to uplink data that is expected to arrive at the backhaul node. The method () includes transmitting () the buffer status report.

Buffer status report indicator

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for resource pool assignment. One method () includes receiving () information indicating that multiple resource pools are assigned to a bandwidth part. Each resource pool of the multiple resource pools corresponds to a different numerology, a different maximum physical sidelink shared channel duration, or a combination thereof. The method () includes assigning () the multiple resource pools to the bandwidth part.

Resource pool assignment

Broadcasted minimum system information comprising information for initial access to a cell can be received. A random access message, including a request for non-minimum system information, of a random access procedure can be transmitted. The random access message can comprise a random access preamble associated with requesting the non-minimum system information. The non-minimum system information can be excluded from the broadcasted minimum system information. A random access response message can be received in response to the request for the non-minimum system information. The random access response message can include only a MAC subheader with a RAPID.

Method and apparatus for signaling of system information

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatuses. According to some embodiments of the disclosure, a method includes: receiving information for configuring a trigger condition that an integrated access and backhaul node reports load information of at least one integrated access and backhaul node; and reporting the load information of the at least one integrated access and backhaul node in the case that the trigger condition is met, wherein the load information includes a load status indicator of the integrated access and backhaul node.

Method and apparatus for integrated access and backhaul node selection

An uplink transmission can be received in an allocated slot on a first serving cell of a base station, the allocated slot on the first serving cell overlapping with multiple slots on a second serving cell of the apparatus. A first power headroom report can be received for the allocated slot on the first serving cell. A second power headroom report can be received for the second serving cell, where the second power headroom report is for a first slot of the multiple overlapping slots on the second serving cell that fully overlaps with the allocated slot on the first serving cell. The first power headroom report and the second power headroom report can be received in the uplink transmission in the allocated slot on the first serving cell. The first power headroom report and the second power headroom report can be Type 1 power headroom reports.

Method and apparatus for power headroom reporting procedure for different serving cells

Embodiment of the present application is directed to a method and apparatus for target IAB node selection. According to an embodiment of the present application, the method includes receiving hop number information and end-to-end link quality information associated with a plurality of IAB nodes, wherein the plurality of IAB nodes include serving IAB nodes of an IAB node and at least one neighbor IAB node of the IAB node, and each of the serving IAB nodes and the at least one neighbor IAB node is associated with at least one active route. The method may further include reporting end-to-end link quality information associated with each of the at least one neighbor IAB node.

Method and apparatus for target integrated access and backhaul node selection

A method and apparatus send and receive information on a wireless network. A user equipment can establish a radio resource control connection with a wireless wide area network base station to enter a radio resource control connected state. The user equipment can send an uplink grant request message using a predefined dedicated random access channel preamble while in the radio resource control connected state. The user equipment can receive an uplink grant from the base station. The user equipment can transmit a radio resource control message in response to receiving the uplink grant.

Method and apparatus for sending and receiving information on a wireless network

Minimum system information including at least cell access information to establish access with a cell can be transmitted, the minimum system information also including at least one indication indicating whether particular system information listed in scheduling information in the minimum system information is being broadcasted or not being broadcasted. A system information request message requesting transmission of non-minimum system information if the at least one indication indicates the non-minimum system information is not being broadcasted can be received, where the non-minimum system information may not be included in the minimum system information. The non-minimum system information can be transmitted either in response to the receiving of the system information request message or in response to the at least one indication indicating whether particular system information is being broadcasted.

Apparatuses, methods, and systems are disclosed for discarding radio link control service data units. One method () includes sending () at least a portion of a radio link control service data unit. The method () includes receiving () an indication from a packet data convergence protocol layer to discard the radio link control service data unit after sending at least the portion of the radio link control service data unit. The method () includes, in response to receiving the indication to discard the radio link control service data unit, transmitting () information indicating to discard the radio link control service data unit.

Discarding radio link control service data units

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium for use with a user equipment in a radio communication system, the non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing instructions, that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to control the user equipment to perform operations that include receiving control signalling that includes new data information and modulation and coding scheme information, and releasing a semi-persistent resource allocation when a predetermined combination of the new data information and the modulation and coding scheme information is received. The modulation and coding scheme information in the predetermined combination includes an index of 11111 in binary format that indicates no transport block size information.

Semi-persistent scheduled resource release procedure in a mobile communication network

A determination can be made that a power headroom report has been triggered. An allocated slot on a first serving cell can overlap with multiple slots on a second serving cell. A first power headroom report can be generated for the allocated slot on the first serving cell. A second power headroom report can be generated for the second serving cell. The second power headroom report can be generated for a first slot of the multiple overlapping slots on the second serving cell that fully overlaps with the allocated slot on the first serving cell. The first power headroom report and the second power headroom report can be transmitted in the uplink transmission in the allocated slot on the first serving cell. The first power headroom report and the second power headroom report can be Type 1 power headroom reports.
