Embodiments herein relate to a method implemented by a wireless communication device. The wireless communication device transmits data to a radio node of a wireless communication network. The wireless communication device monitors for a positive acknowledgement or a negative acknowledgement of the data from the radio node. The wireless communication device retransmits the data to the radio node when said monitoring indicates reception of a negative acknowledgement of the data. The wireless communication device refrains from retransmitting the data to the radio node when said monitoring indicates reception of a positive acknowledgement of the data. The wireless communication device also refrains from retransmitting the data to the radio node when said monitoring indicates neither reception of a positive acknowledgement of the data nor reception of a negative acknowledgement of the data.

Wireless communication device, network node and methods for handling data transmissions

Embodiments herein relate to a method, performed by a User Equipment (UE), for handling discontinous reception (DRX) operation. The method comprises applying a delay for at least one action performed as a response to data and/or signaling received by the UE during a predefined first time period after the UEhas entered an active state. Embodiments herein further relate to a method, performed by a network node, for handling discontinous reception (DRX) operation. The method comprises sending a configuration message to a User Equipment (UE), which message comprises information regarding actions to be delayed by the UE

Method and apparatus for handling discontinuous reception in a communications network

A method for a transfer of a UE context within a secondary network from a source secondary network node to a target secondary network node. The UE is served by a master network node and the source secondary network node. The method includes the following steps performed by the UE: receiving a first message indicative of a secondary network node measurement configuration; based on the measurement configuration, performing measurements of potential candidates for a target secondary network node; and sending a second message comprising a measurement report indicative of the measurements of potential candidates for a target secondary node.

Systems, methods, and apparatus for handling communications relating to suspending a user equipment in a radio access network (RAN) are disclosed. An example method includes the user equipment receiving a radio resource control (RRC) release message from a network node. The user equipment determines that the RRC release message includes a suspend configuration field. The user equipment applies delta signalling corresponding to a suspend configuration indicated by the suspend configuration field and transitions to an inactive state.

Release cause for transition from connected state

A wireless communication device is configured for use in a wireless communication system. The device in this regard is configured to receive a command that commands the device to perform a link switch from a source link to a target link responsive to fulfillment of a condition. The command may indicate a target link configuration relative to a source link configuration. The device is also configured to store information from which the target link configuration indicated by the command is determinable irrespective of any change to the source link configuration occurring after receipt of the command. In some embodiments, the device is configured to, responsive to fulfillment of the condition, perform a link switch from the source link to the target link using the target link configuration as determined from the stored information.

Link switch in a wireless communication system

A wireless communications device, operating according to a DRX configuration and configured to receive two-step grants for uplink transmissions, determines whether the device has received a first trigger of a two-step grant. The device enters a state in which the device listens on a physical downlink control channel for messages from the network, in response to determining that the device has received the first trigger, without necessarily receiving the second trigger.
