An arrangement for switching beams in wireless communications is based on determining an exact timing for switching from one beam to another. The determined exact timing is communicated to a user equipment requiring a beam switch. The user equipment receives the determined exact timing and is capable of switching beams in synchronicity with the base station.

Beam switching in wireless communications

There is provided an apparatus, a method and a computer program product. In accordance with an embodiment the method comprises obtaining one or more measurement parameters; measuring signals from a radio channel; evaluating one or more measurement relaxation conditions related to the obtained one or more measurement parameters for measuring signals; and adjusting the measurement of the signals on the basis of the evaluation result.

Measurement adjustment in low mobility

Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to discontinuous reception configuration for multi-beam operations. A method includes receiving, at a first device and from a second device, configuration information indicating a first plurality of configuration settings associated with a plurality of transmission beams of the second device, the first plurality of configuration settings at least including a first plurality of scrambling identifiers. The method also includes in accordance with a determination that a first transmission beam of the plurality of transmission beams is configured for the first device as a serving beam, selecting, from the first plurality of scrambling identifiers, a first scrambling identifier associated with the first transmission beam. The method further includes monitoring for first control information transmitted by the second device via the first transmission beam using the first scrambling identifier, the first control information indicating presence of data to be transmitted by the second device.

Discontinuous reception configuration for multi-beam operations

A method comprises causing a message to be transmitted from a communications device to a transmission reception point during a random access procedure. The message comprises information identifying a plurality of different beam directions. The method further comprises receiving a response to the message from a plurality of different beam directions.

Apparatus, method, and computer program

In accordance with example embodiments of the invention there is at least a method and apparatus to perform at least detecting, by a network device of a communication network, at least one failure of network node channel access during or preceding a wake-up signal occasion, and based on the detecting, performing on-duration monitoring. In addition, there is at least a method and apparatus to perform at least determining, by a network node of a communication network, information comprising a configuration for performing on-duration monitoring if a failure of network node channel access is detected during or preceding a wake-up signal occasion; and sending an indication of the information towards the at least one network device.

Network assistance to resolve wake-up signal conflicts

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for control of cross-bandwidth part (BWP) wake up signaling (WUS) activation are provided. One method includes configuring a user equipment with a wake up signaling (WUS) bandwidth part (BWP) and a plurality of non-wake up signaling (WUS) bandwidth part (BWPs), and transmitting a wake up signaling (WUS) indication.

Methods and apparatuses for control of cross-bandwidth part (BWP) wake up signaling (WUS) activation

A technique of performing a RACK procedure includes a framework for a two-step RACK in which a first message (MsgA) from the UE to the gNB has data carrying resources (i.e., PUSCH) is organized into a time-frequency array defined by a mapping to a plurality of preambles. Such a two-step RACK has less latency than the four-step RACK due to fewer signaling exchanges. Moreover, this two-step RACK also causes the UE to use less power due to a decreased signaling overhead.

Structure of message from user equipment to base station in two-step random access

Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media for counting of devices. In example embodiments, a first device receives, from a second device, a first configuration associated with an event to trigger transmission of a counting signal from the first device to the second device. When the event occurs, the first device transmits, to the second device, at least the counting signal to enable the second device to count the number of devices for determining a type of signals.

Counting of devices

Method, apparatus, computer program for a user equipment having at least two connections to at least two network nodes, where each connection corresponds to a different user identity, selecting by the user equipment one of the at least two network nodes to communicate exclusively with during one or more time intervals; and sending by the user equipment one or more messages toward the other ones of the at least two network nodes, the one or more messages indicating to the other ones of the at least two network nodes that the user equipment is unavailable for communication during the one or more time intervals.

Multi-USIM UE assistance information with unavailable time

There is provided an apparatus, said apparatus comprising means for operating using a first measurement configuration, determining that a first trigger condition related to at least a radio link failure indicator is met and in response to the determining, operating using a second measurement configuration until a second trigger condition is met, wherein operating using the second measurement configuration comprises at least one of performing measurements with a decreased periodicity, an increased number of samples and/or an increased number of reports, increasing the number of measured neighbour cells and reducing a time to trigger handover period relative to the first measurement configuration.

A method includes receiving, by a user equipment (UE), at least a first UE identity assigned to the user equipment for a wireless network, the first UE identity associated with a first paging timing; and receiving, by the user equipment, a second UE identity that has been assigned to the user equipment at least for paging purposes that adjusts a paging timing from a first paging timing associated with the first UE identity to a second paging timing associated with the second UE identity, wherein the second paging timing is different from the first paging timing.

Assignment of a second UE identity to adjust paging timing for UE for wireless network

Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to information transmission in random access. A method comprises selecting, one of a plurality of random access preambles that is received from a terminal device, the plurality of random access preambles being divided into a plurality of subsets of random access preambles; selecting at least one predefined sequence associated with the selected random access preamble based on a predetermined association between a plurality of predefined sequences and the plurality of subsets of random access preambles and based on a target resource unit to be used for transmission of control information and data information; modulating the control information with one of the at least one predefined sequence, the control information indicating configuration of the data information; and transmitting the selected random access preamble, the modulated control information, and the data information in a random access message to the network device.

Fallback aspects associated with the power ramping procedure are addressed. More specifically, a set of control mechanisms allows for a gNB to adjust thresholds for controlling the UE transfer from a 2-step RACH procedure to a 4-step RACH procedure while still maintaining a proper setting for transmit power during this transition. The mechanism will allow for a UE to have a smooth transition to the 4-step procedure instead of having to start the power ramping from scratch when transferring to the fall-back routine.

According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method including, receiving, from a wireless terminal, a second connection request message with an uplink reference signal sequence and in response to receiving the second connection request message, transmitting a contention resolution message to the wireless terminal, the contention resolution message including a temporary identifier associated with the wireless terminal and an identifier of the uplink reference signal sequence.
