Disclosed is a method for managing the context of an AIoT device at an AMF. The process starts when the Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) receives an inventory request from an Application Function (AF), identifying the AIoT device and providing context preservation instructions. The AMF retrieves the device's subscription information and informs the AIoT device that it is the serving node. The AMF then creates and stores the device's context information to manage its connectivity within the network. To handle the inventory request, the AMF sends a request to the AIoT device via a base station and receives a response, which is forwarded to the AF. After responding to the AF, the AMF decides if the device's context should be deleted. If so, the AMF may send a de-registration notification to the AIoT device and/or AF, terminating the device's connection to the network.

Disclosed is a method for managing the context of an AIoT device at an AMF. The process starts when the Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) receives an inventory request from an Application Function (AF), identifying the AIoT device and providing context preservation instructions. The AMF retrieves the device's subscription information and informs the AIoT device that it is the serving node. The AMF then creates and stores the device's context information to manage its connectivity within the network. To handle the inventory request, the AMF sends a request to the AIoT device via a base station and receives a response, which is forwarded to the AF. After responding to the AF, the AMF decides if the device's context should be deleted. If so, the AMF may send a de-registration notification to the AIoT device and/or AF, terminating the device's connection to the network.

A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) communicates with a wireless network to enhance positioning accuracy. The WTRU receives direct path reference phase and delay information, environmental object (EO) reference information, and positioning reference signal (PRS) resources from the network. Using the PRS resources, the WTRU determines phase and delay measurements for multiple sensing paths to a target object. The WTRU analyzes these measurements along with the direct path and EO reference information to identify paths associated with EOs. Based on this analysis, the WTRU calculates compensated phase and delay measurements for the identified paths. These compensated measurements, along with their uncertainties and details of the EOs, are then reported back to the network. Accurate positioning is achieved by considering EO-related delays and phases, mechanisms are included to validate the timing and relevance of the measurements.

A coordinating AP (CAP) may receive, from one or more member APs in a multi-AP set (MAPS), one or more indications indicating that the one or more member APs are capable of multi-AP sounding during a transmission opportunity (TXOP). The CAP may transmit a CAP TXOP indication (CTI) frame indicating that the multi-AP sounding is to be performed during a TXOP acquired by the CAP. The CAP may receive a CAP TXOP request (CTR) frame indicating that the one or more member APs of the MAP are willing to perform multi-AP sounding during the TXOP. The CAP may transmit a CAP TXOP AP schedule (CTAS) frame indicating a transmission schedule for one or more sounding frames to be transmitted by the one or more member APs during the TXOP.

An edge application handover client in a user equipment may use application client information, such as type service, provider, location, context, and sendee requirements, to assist seamless edge application handovers of application clients between edge application servers. For example, a handover client may use context information to determine an anticipated route of the user equipment, and thereby determine a next, edge application server for a handoff. The handover client may weigh the needs of multiple application client m selecting servers for handovers. The handover client may issue requests to servers requesting assistance in handover operations, and may issue subscription requests to servers, and further may determine the success of handovers by monitoring application state synchronization or migration between edge application handover servers.

A wireless transmit/receive unit may be configured to receive a channel state information (CSI) configuration. The CSI configuration may indicate a set of one or more CSI reference points. The WTRU may receive a trigger to perform a CSI report. The WTRU may determine that a CSI timing violation has occurred. The WTRU may generate a partial CSI based on the occurrence of the CSI timing violation. The partial CSI may be based on a subset of the quantities that the WTRU would normally use to generate a CSI report. The partial CSI may also be generated using a second time window, which may be shorter and/or have fewer sub-windows than the time window that the WTRU would normally use to generate a CSI report. The WTRU may send a report based on the partial CSI to the network.

In one or more systems, method, and/or apparatuses, a carrier wave (CW) node may be selected for ambient internet of things (AIoT) device communication. In one example, one or more apparatuses (e.g., the CW node itself or one or more other entities), may require configuration to establish and facilitate communication with the AIoT device(s). In one example, a wireless transmit receive unit (WTRU) may select one or more transmission CW node(s) based on measurements from one or more candidate CW node(s). The WTRU may determine the transmission characteristics of the selected transmission CW node(s), and instruct the same.

Methods and apparatus are described. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) includes a transceiver and a processor and is configured with multiple random access occasions (ROs), each being one or a first type of RO or a second type of RO. The processor and the transceiver select a synchronization signal block (SSB) from multiple SSBs for a random access preamble transmission. Each of the SSBs is mapped to a subset of the ROs. The processor and the transceiver identify a closest RO of the first type to a current frame and a closest RO of the second type to the current frame. The processor and the transceiver select either the closest RO of the first type or the closest RO of the second type based on one or more RO selection criteria and send the random access preamble in the selected RO.

Procedures, methods, architectures, apparatuses, systems, devices, and computer program products for reporting (e.g., buffer status reporting or power headroom reporting) in energy saving networks are described. One method may include receiving cell configuration information indicating a first cell group and a second cell group, determining that at least the first cell group is in an active network energy saving (NES) state, receiving reporting configuration information associated with WTRU status reporting during a NES state, applying the reporting configuration information associated with WTRU status reporting during the NES state for the first cell group that is in the active network energy saving state. If the first cell group that is in the active NES state will be transitioning from the active NES state to a non-active or non-NES state, the method may include triggering a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) transmission associated with WTRU status reporting.
