A method is provided to operate a CN node to determine UP security activation. A UP session establishment request is obtained for a wireless device. An indication is obtained that the UP session establishment request is associated with an emergency session and/or that null ciphering and/or null integrity protection are applied to a CP associated with a CP session for the wireless device. It is determined that a UP should be configured for the UP session without activating integrity and/or confidentiality protection for the UP based on the indication. A UP security policy is provided to a RAN node associated with the wireless device, wherein the UP security policy indicates to configure the UP for the UP session without activating integrity and/or confidentiality protection based on determining that a UP should be configured for the UP session without activating integrity and/or confidentiality protection.

The application relates to method for a 5G Media Streaming, 5GMS, Aware Application, AA, hosted by a user equipment, UE, operating in a communication network, the method comprising the step of obtaining, from an application service provider, ASP, associated with the 5GMS AA, a token indicating that the 5GMS AA is authorized to invoke or activate a dynamic policy for resources of the communication network, wherein the dynamic policy is associated with the ASP; and the step of sending the token to a 5GMS client hosted by the UE, wherein the 5GMS client is associated with a 5GMS application function, AF, of the communication network.

A first network node that is a first Next Generation Node B, gNB, is described. The first network node includes processing circuitry configured to receive, from within the first network node, a first information indicative of an open systems interconnection, OSI, Layer 1, L1, configuration of at least two cells served by the first network node. The at least two cells are candidate cells. The processing circuitry is further configured to make a Wireless Device, WD, mobility decision by considering at least a performance gain of the candidate cells. The performance gain is determined based on the received first information indicative of the OSI L1 configuration. Methods, systems, and other apparatuses are also disclosed.

A method for rendering an audio element (e.g., a spatially-heterogeneous audio element), wherein the audio element has an extent and is represented using a set of virtual loudspeakers comprising a middle speaker. The method includes, based on a position of a listener, selecting a position for the middle speaker.

A method at a first communication device for providing a second communication device access to content, the method comprising: providing an offer to the second communication device, offering the second communication device conditional access to the content, wherein access to the content at the second communication device is adaptable based on sensor data of at least one of the first and the second communication device; acquiring sensor data of at least one of the first and the second communication device; providing the second communication device full access to the content in case it is that the sensor data of at least one of the first and the second communication device indicates that the second communication device shall be granted full access to the content, or determining that access to the content is to be restricted at the second communication device, and providing the second communication device restricted access to the content, in case it is determined that sensor data of at least one of the first and the second communication device is indicating that access to the content is to be restricted at the second communication device.

There is disclosed a receiving radio node in a wireless communication network, the method comprising transmitting feedback signaling based on a received control information message scheduling multiple separate data transmissions for reception by the receiving radio node. The disclosure also pertains to related devices and methods.

A method and apparatus are disclosed for configured grant uplink control information (UCI) mapping rules. In one embodiment, a network node is configured to transmit downlink control information for a configured grant physical uplink shared channel, CG-PUSCH; and receive configured grant uplink control information, CG-UCI, on the CG-PUSCH, the CG-UCI being mapped to the CG-PUSCH based at least in part on a presence of at least one Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest - acknowledgement, HARQ-ACK. In another embodiment, a wireless device is configured to receive, from the network node, downlink control information for a configured grant physical uplink shared channel, CG-PUSCH; and transmit a configured grant uplink control information, CG-UCI, on the CG-PUSCH, the CG-UCI being mapped to the CG-PUSCH based at least in part on a presence of at least one Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest - acknowledgement, HARQ-ACK.

A method performed by an access and mobility node for interworking handover from a fifth generation system (5GS) to an evolved packet system (EPS) is provided. The method comprises forwarding a relocation request for a user equipment (UE) to a mobility management node. The relocation request comprises a user plane (UP) security policy and a UP security activation status for a packet data unit (PDU) session established between a source node and the UE. The PDU session being mapped to a packet data network (PDN) connection in the EPS for the UE being handed over to the mobility management node.

A method performed by an authentication server (14) in a home network (3) of a user equipment (1), UE, for obtaining a subscription permanent identifier, SUPI. The method comprises: - receiving a subscription concealed identifier, SUCI, which comprises an encrypted part in which at least a part of the SUPI is encrypted, and a clear-text part which comprises a home network identifier and an encryption scheme identifier that identifies an encryption scheme used by the UE to encrypt the SUPI in the SUCI, - determining a de-concealing server (19) to use to decrypt the encrypted part of the SUCI; - sending the SUCI to the de-concealing server (19), and - receiving the SUPI in response. Methods performed by a UE and a de-concealing server are also disclosed. Furthermore, UEs, de-concealing servers, authentication servers, computer program (133) and a memory circuitry (12) are also disclosed.

There is disclosed a method of operating transmitting radio node in a wireless communication network, the method comprising transmitting data signaling on multiple layers, wherein on each layer, there is transmitted a sequence of samples representing data, samples representing PT-RS being inserted into the sequence of samples in one or more groups, each group representing a PT-RS sample sequence; wherein further groups of PT-RS of different layers are shifted relative to each other. The disclosure also pertains to related devices and methods.
