Test entity for verifying user equipment (UE) device layer 2 sustained downlink maximum data rate decoding performance may send a non-access stratum message to the UE device that requests activation of a downlink-only test mode, sending a first Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) status request to the UE device, send downlink PDCP packets to the UE device during a measurement interval, receive a physical layer (PHY) hybrid acknowledge request (HARQ) acknowledgement (ACK) or non-acknowledgement (NACK) from the UE device and determine expected missed layer 1 packets based on the received PHY HARQ ACK/NACK, send a second PDCP status request to the UE device after the measurement interval, receive a PDCP status report from the UE device, and determine missed layer 2 packets from a First Missing Count (FMC) value or bitmap included in the received PDCP status report.

Measuring and verifying layer 2 sustained downlink maximum data rate decoding performance

Certain aspects of the present disclosure propose techniques for independently signaling features supported by a user equipment (UE) in different duplexing modes. The UE may be capable of communicating in frequency division duplexing (FDD) and time division duplexing (TDD) modes. The UE may obtain a FDD-specific feature group indicators (FGIs) set and a TDD-specific FGIs set, and signal at least one of the FDD-specific FGIs set or TDD-specific FGIs set. In addition, the UE may take one or more actions to reduce the likelihood of transitioning to a mode of operation that is different from its current mode of operation.

Methods and apparatus for employing different capabilities for different duplexing modes

Certain aspects of the disclosure relate generally to uplink flow control of wireless devices for mitigation of overload issues. A user equipment (UE) may reduce an average transmit power for the uplink channel based on whether an overload metric (e.g., temperature metric) exceeds a threshold value. The UE may perform duty cycling for an uplink control channel when an overactive uplink control channel is a dominating factor in a thermal issue. The UE may further reduce a maximum power transmit limit (MTPL) for one or more uplink channels, such as physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) and physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH).
