This disclosure relates to techniques for performing multi-transmission and reception point operation in a wireless communication system. A transmission control indication state may be indicated for future monitoring of a control channel, e.g., using dynamic signaling. The indicated state may be used to provide and receive control information for performing multi-transmission and reception point operation.

Dynamically mapping unified transmission states for multipoint control channel reception

Some embodiments include an apparatus, method, and computer program product for enhanced Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ)-ACK in a fifth generation (5G) wireless communications system. A user equipment (UE) can receive, during a HARQ-ACK window, a semi-persistent scheduling (SPS) Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) transmission or a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) transmission corresponding to a SPS PDSCH release. The UE can generate a Hybrid Automatic Repeat Request (HARQ)-ACK information bit corresponding to the reception. The UE can be configured with an offset value, k, and a length, l, of the HARQ-ACK window associated with an uplink transmission slot n, of a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) transmission, and determine a starting slot of the HARQ-ACK window as n-k. When a corresponding valid uplink transmission slot is not available, the UE can transmit the HARQ-ACK information bit in the uplink transmission slot n of the PUCCH transmission.

Method for enhanced HARQ-ACK feedback in wireless communications

Approaches are described for receiving downlink signals simultaneously where analog beamforming is being used to increase the link budget between the base station and user equipment (UE). Alternatives within these approaches include the UE determining the synchronization signal block (SSB) to receive when there are multiple SSBs from different cells in a slot, and determining whether there are other signals in the same symbols with the selected SSB based on the type of signal and the SSB's functionality. In the case where there are another downlink signals channel state information-reference signal (CSI-RS) or physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) from another cell, the UE selects the corresponding quasi co-location (QCL) assumption to receive the signals. Optionally, the UE can report whether it can support one or two QCL-TypeD at a time and whether it supports SSBs in different cells multiplexed in overlapped symbols.

Method for simultaneous reception of SSB and other signals

A method that determines a resource at a first user equipment (UE) for a sidelink communication from the second UE to a first UE is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the method receives a request from the second UE to send data to the first UE. In addition, the method determines a preconfigured resource selection window that is used by the second UE. Furthermore, the method determines a first sensing result at the first UE. The determined first sensing result includes information to be reported to the second UE for a resource selection. The determined first sensing results has a plurality of first sensing types. Further, the method transmits the first sensing result from the first UE to the second UE.

Methods and apparatus for sidelink resource exclusion for intra-device coordination in wireless communication

A user equipment (UE) may increase the reliability of transmission of a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) by transmitting repeated copies of the PUCCH, according to a repetition pattern spanning one or more slots. In an intra-slot mode, more than one copy may be transmitted within each configured slot, with or without frequency hopping. The number of copies as well as a temporal gap between the transmission of successive copies may be configured by the network. The repetition pattern may or may not be interrupted by slot boundaries. In an inter-slot mode, one copy is transmitted per configured slot. Different copies may be transmitted in different directions, according to a spatial consistency pattern. The UE may perform repeated transmission of PUCCHs to different Transmission-Reception Points (TRPs) using respectively different timing advances and/or transmit power levels.

PUCCH repetition to increase the reliability of PUCCH transmission

Apparatus and methods are provided to for a user equipment (UE) to report channel state information (CSI) to a base station. The UE sends UE capability signaling to a base station to indicate support of a codebook for high speed scenarios. The UE processes configuration information from the base station for CSI reporting using the codebook. The configuration information indicates measurement resources for one or more downlink (DL) channel. The UE measures a channel response and interference using the measurement resources, generates CSI feedback using the codebook for at least one ray from the base station to the UE, and reports the CSI feedback to the base station.

Predictive CSI enhancements for high speed scenarios

To support inter-cell multi-TRP operation, disclosed are embodiments that provide a beam indication for the common signals, e.g., signals transmitted and scheduled by some CSS. The disclosed embodiments provide inter-cell multi-TRP with or without serving cell change. In addition, some embodiments provide for switching between inter-cell multi-TRP and intra-cell multi-TRP.

Beam indication for inter-cell multiple transmission and reception (multi-TRP, MTRP) operation

A network receives an indication of user consent from a user equipment (UE) to access UE information for the purposes of edge computing. The network receives an indication of user consent from a UE, the user consent corresponding to a network function acquiring UE information, receives the UE information and performs operations related to establishing a connection between the UE and an edge data network.

Network operations to receive user consent for edge computing

Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) to perform methods for Fifth Generation New Radio (5G NR) frequency range two (FR2) based communications beam management. The UE may configure, via communications with a base station, serving the UE, a group ID for PUCCH resources within a group of PUCCHs, e.g., for FR2 based communications. The UE may receive, from the base station, an update to one or more PUCCH resources within the group of PUCCHs via a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) that may include one of a resource ID indicating an update to a PUCCH resource or the group ID to update the group of PUCCH resources. The UE may update, based on the MAC-CE, the one or more PUCCH resources within the group of PUCCHs.

5G NR FR2 beam management enhancements

The disclosure relates to Discontinuous Reception (DRX) based UE behavior. A user equipment (UE) is configured to perform operations comprising: obtaining a first DRX cycle; determining a second DRX cycle at least based on the first DRX cycle and a DRX cycle threshold, wherein the DRX cycle threshold is a highest value of DRX cycle that can support LEO (Low-Earth Orbit) cell measurement; and applying the second DRX cycle, comprising applying the second DRX cycle to measurement of at least one LEO cell of the serving cell and a neighbor cell, wherein at least one of the serving cell and the neighbor cell is a LEO cell.

DRX based UE behavior

Provided is a method for a base station, includes: generating, for transmission to at least one UE, control information associated with SRS transmission, wherein the control information indicates an SRS band including a plurality of RBs for the SRS transmission, the control information indicates a first subband for a first UE and a second subband for a second UE in a same SRS band for an SRS transmission occasion; receiving, from the at least one UE, SRS on a plurality of SRS transmission occasions according to the control information, wherein a location hopping parameter is applied to the plurality of SRS transmission occasions, wherein a first starting location of the first subband for the first UE on a first SRS transmission occasion and a second starting location of the first subband for the first UE on a second SRS transmission occasion are determined based on the location hopping parameter.

Frequency hopping enhancement for partial frequency sounding

In an example method, a user equipment (UE) device receives a plurality of Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) beams transmitted by base stations (BSes) during discovery burst transmission windows (DBTWs). For each of the SSB beams, the UE device determines an index value of the SSB beam (l) within a respective one of the DBTWs, and determines a value Z=lmod N, where Nrepresents a maximum allowable number of SSB beams transmitted by each of the BSes during a single DBTW. The UE device determines whether two or more of the SSB beams are quasi co-located based on the values Z for the SSB beams, and processes wireless signals received from the BSes based on the determination.

Technologies in multi-PDSCH transmission in a wireless network

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods for determining and acknowledging transmission configuration indicator states.

Transmission configuration indicator determination and acknowledgment

A user equipment (UE) is provided to select an uplink transmission beam to communicate with a base station in a secondary cell of a carrier aggregation (CA) scheme. The UE can communicate with a first base station in a primary cell (PCell), and receive a command from the wireless network to activate a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission to a second base station in a secondary cell (SCell). The second base station can be in a being-activated state. The UE can determine whether an uplink spatial relation configuration is provided to the UE, and determine whether the UE supports beam correspondence. Based on the determinations, the UE can select an uplink transmission beam for the PUCCH transmission to the second base station.

Uplink transmission beam selection in a secondary cell

A cell performs beam management operations for a user equipment (UE). The cell transmits a first group of multiple reference signals via a first transmission reception point (TRP) to a user equipment (UE), transmits a second group of multiple reference signals via a second different TRP to the UE, receives an indication that the UE has selected a first beam associated with one of the multiple reference signals of the first group and a second beam associated with one of the multiple reference signals of the second group and transmits downlink data to the UE using the first beam and the second beam.
