To determine the mismatch, while the UE is in the RRC inactive state, the UE may monitor at least one of paging messages, serving cell power levels, or neighbor cell power levels. When an operational state mismatch is detected, the UE may initiate a state correction procedure rather than an RRC resume procedure. | 2021-10-28 |

20210337625 | SMALL DATA TRANSMISSION IN RADIO RESOURCE CONTROL (RRC) INACTIVE STATE - Some of the present implementations provide a method for a user equipment (UE) for transmitting uplink (UL) data associated with a specific radio bearer (RB). The UE receives, while in a radio resource control (RRC)_CONNECTED state, from a base station (BS), an RRC release message that includes at least a configured grant (CG) configuration and a time alignment (TA) timer. The UE then transitions to an RRC_INACTIVE state and starts, or restarts, the TA timer in response to receiving the RRC release message. The UE transmits, while in the RRC_INACTIVE state, the UL data via a UL resource configured by the CG configuration after determining that a set of one or more criteria is met, the set of criteria including at least a criterion for the TA timer being running. | 2021-10-28 |
