Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, systems, etc., directed to resource solicitation for Fog Radio Access Network (RAN) are disclosed herein. For some embodiments, a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may receive a Fog-Resource Solicitation, for example included in a paging message, for joining a Fog Radio Access Network (RAN) platform (e.g., soliciting resources). The WTRU may accept or decline the Fog-Resource Solicitation, for example, based on any of the solicited resources and the WTRU status. In case the WTRU accepts the fog-Resource Solicitation, the WTRU may establish a connection to the RAN for indicating an acceptance of the Fog-Resource Solicitation. In case the WTRU declines the Fog-Resource Solicitation, the WTRU may ignore the Fog-Resource Solicitation or respond to the Fog-Resource Solicitation by establishing a connection to the RAN, indicating a declination of the solicitation. For some embodiments, a WTRU may trigger sending a RRC-Connection Release Request to e.g., terminate the WTRU's connection to the network. The WTRU may transmit an information indicating the reasons why the WTRU is disconnecting from the network.
