Abstract:
In a method for providing an GCSE (Group Communication Service Enabler) service in a wireless communication system, the present invention provides a method for switching from MBMS to unicast service, comprising providing a GCSE (Group Communication Service Enabler) service to a UE through MBMS (Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Services); detecting moving of the UE; receiving MBMS status information indicating whether a neighbor cell belongs to an MBSFN(MBMS Single Frequency Network) area from a MCE (Multi-cell Coordination Entity); based on the MBMS status information, checking whether a target cell of the UE is capable of providing a GCSE service through the MBMS; and transmitting the checking result to the MCE, where in case the target cell is unable to provide a GCSE service through the MBMS, the GCSE service is provided to the UE through a unicast bearer.

Abstract:
In the present invention, the method and apparatus for direct or indirect signaling between eNBs in a wireless communication system that support Dual Connectivity are disclosed. In particular, the method for signaling between eNBs in a wireless communication system that support Dual Connectivity, comprising transmitting, by a first eNB, information indicating whether the first eNB supports the Dual Connectivity function to a second eNB, and transmitting and receiving, by the first eNB, signaling for the Dual Connectivity with the second eNB, if the first eNB supports the Dual Connectivity.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting a secondary eNB (SeNB) release request message in a wireless communication system is provided. A master evolved NodeB (MeNB) of dual connectivity receives a message including a cause, which indicates that a user equipment (UE) has not successfully applied a secondary cell group (SCG) configuration, from the UE, and transmit the SeNB Release Request message including the cause to a SeNB.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting cell load information in a wireless communication system is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, a master eNodeB (eNB) distributes UMTS terrestrial radio access network (UTRAN) cell load response to slave eNBs. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the master eNB aggregates evolved UTRAN (E-UTRAN) cell load response of slave eNBs to a radio network controller (RNC).
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting an indication in a wireless communication system is provided. A user equipment (UE) receives an indication, which indicates whether a cell served by an eNodeB (eNB) is a normal cell or a split cell, from the eNB, and transmits the received indication to a serving eNB of the UE.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting cell load information in a wireless communication system is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, an eNodeB (eNB) of 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) long-term evolution (LTE) system and a radio network controller (RNC) of universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS) transmit cell load information via a direct path between the eNB and the RNC. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the eNB and the RNC transmit cell load information through S1 gateway.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method of performing a dual-connectivity operation in a heterogeneous network by a first base station, the method comprising: transmitting to the second base station a first message to request that the second base station assign a radio resource for a specific E-RAB (E-UTRAN Radio Access Bearer); receiving from the second base station an ACK responsive to the first message; transmitting to the terminal an RRC reconfiguration message for applying a new radio resource configuration to the terminal; receiving from the terminal an RRC reconfiguration complete message to inform that the terminal's radio resource reconfiguration is complete; and transmitting to the second base station a second message to inform that the terminal's radio resource reconfiguration is successfully complete.
Abstract:
A method of operating a central unit (CU) in a wireless communication system may comprise obtaining, by the CU, a first slice group identifier (ID) of a first terminal and slice mapping related information from a distributed unit (DU), transferring the first slice group ID and the slice mapping related information to an access and mobility management function (AMF) supporting the first slice group ID, obtaining mapping information related to a slice list supported by the first slice group for the first terminal from the AMF, and transferring the mapping information related to the slice list supported by the first slice group for the first terminal obtained from the AMF to the DU.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for handling QoE report in a secondary node in a wireless communication system is provided. An SN transmits, to a UE, a configuration for Quality of Experience (QoE) measurement. The QoE measurement is initiated by an Operations, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) and/or a master node (MN). An SN receives, from the UE, a QoE report based on the configuration. An SN determines whether to forward the QoE report to (i) a Trace Collection Entity (TCE) and/or a Measurement Collection Entity (MCE) and/or (ii) the MN, based on which entity among the OAM and/or the MN initiates the QoE measurement. An SN forwards the QoE report based on the determination.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for stopping multicast and broadcast service in a wireless communication system is provided. A CU-UP of a RAN node receives, from a CU-CP of the RAN node, a first message to initiate a MLD) and/or IGMP Leave procedure. A CU-UP of a RAN node performs the MLD and/or IGMP Leave procedure for the MB service indicated by the identity for the MB service along with an MB-UPF based on the Transmission Stop Indication. A CU-UP of a RAN node transmits, to the CU-CP of the RAN node, a second message informing that the MLD and/or IGMP Leave procedure is completed.
