Lightweight S-1 Lite protocol design for cellular internet of things

Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a cellular internet of things evolved node b (CIoT eNB) comprises a baseband processing circuity to process a cellular internet of things application protocol (CIAP) setup request message received from a CIoT gateway (CIoT GW), wherein the CIAP setup request message is to configure a reduced signaling overhead between the CIoT eNB and the CIoT GW, and generate a CIAP setup response message to be transmitted to the CIoT GW in response to the CIAP setup request message. In other embodiments, a cellular internet of things gateway (CIoT GW) comprises the baseband processing circuity to generate a cellular internet of things application protocol (CIAP) setup request message to be transmitted to a ciot evolved node b (CIoT eNB), and process aCIAP setup response message received from the CIoT eNB in response to the CIAP setup request message. 简而言之，根据个或多个实施例，蜂窝物联网演进型节点B(CIoT eNB)包括基带处理电路，用以处理从CIoT网关(CIoT GW)接收到的物联网应用协议(CIAP)建立请求消息，其中，CIAP建立请求消息用于配置CIoT eNB与CIoT GW之
