Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may identify a throttling indicator for a shared resource associated with a modem at the UE. The CE may determine a configuration of the modem based on a configuration received from a Radio Resource Control layer of the UE. Based on the modem configuration and the throttling indicator, the UE may identify a throttling level to apply to the modem. The UE may adjust the modem configuration for communicating with a base station based on the throttling level in order to reduce resource usage below a usage threshold. By reducing usage of the shared resource by the modem, the UE may have a greater availability of the shared resource to meet the needs of other components of the UE. This may provide an improved user experience at the UE, among other benefits.

Modem throughput throttling

This disclosure describes techniques for NR-U MO merging in EN-DC and NR-DC embodiments, with consideration of additional parameters including different Q values and RSSI Measurement Timing Configuration (RMTC) configurations.

Measurement objects merging for NR unlicensed spectrums

A user equipment (UE) is configured to monitor synchronization signal blocks (SSB) transmitted by a base station of a network. The UE receives a configuration comprising a first indication of a quasi-co-location (QCL) relationship between synchronization signal block (SSB) positions and a second indication of a location of one or more sets of target SSBs, wherein SSBs in each of one or more sets of target SSBs are quasi-co-located, determines a number of SSB occasions corresponding to each set of the one or more sets of target SSBs to be transmitted by the base station and determines a monitoring scheme for the one or more sets of target SSBs based on, at least, the configuration and the number of SSB occasions corresponding to each set of target SSBs.

Synchronization signal block reception in wireless communications

This disclosure relates to techniques for improving capability signaling and performing search space set switching, particularly with large sub-carrier spacings, as in high frequency ranges. In various scenarios, a user equipment (UE) device may signal its capability to perform multi-slot PDCCH monitoring and/or single-slot PDCCH monitoring, e.g., at various sub-carrier spacings, for various PDCCH/DCI types, etc. Various technical difficulties in this area are addressed, including increasing flexibility and versatility in capability signaling, overbooking, signaling and timing of search space set switching, and beam sweeping transmission of DCI Format 2_0, among others.

Search space set switching

A user equipment (UE) supports an independent measurement gap configuration. The UE transmits an indication to a currently camped cell indicating that the UE supports an independent measurement gap configuration for new radio in an unlicensed spectrum (NR-U), receives measurement gap configuration information from the currently camped cell, configures a measurement gap pattern based on the measurement gap configuration information and receives a signal from a cell during a measurement gap of the measurement gap pattern.

Independent measurement gap configuration in an unlicensed spectrum

A method for a user equipment (UE) includes decoding an information element (IE) MAC-CellGroupConfig, determining that a field lch-BasedPrioritization of the IE MAC-CellGroupConfig is not configured, determining that a plurality of configured grants (CGs) overlap in time domain, each of the plurality of CGs indicative of uplink resources for allocation to a corresponding one of a plurality of CG physical uplink share channels (CG-PUSCH), causing uplink control information (UCI) to be multiplexed onto a CG-PUSCH, and selecting the CG-PUSCH with multiplexed UCI for transmission.

Uplink skipping with multiple configured grants without LCH-based prioritization

Disclosed are methods and apparatus for multiplexing of uplink control information on uplink data channels in wireless communication. It may be determined that transmission of a plurality of physical uplink shared channels (PUSCHs) are scheduled. The transmission of the plurality of PUSCHs may overlap with transmission of an uplink control information (UCI). At most one of the plurality of PUSCHs on to which the UCI is multiplexed may be determined based on a Downlink Assignment Index (DAI) value. The plurality of PUSCHs may be set with no more than one PUSCH having the DAI value not equal to four. Thereafter, the determined PUSCH is transmitted with the UCI multiplexed on it.

Harq design for wireless communications

Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for a user equipment (UE) to transmit a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) including an uplink control information (UCI) without transmitting a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). The UE determines, based on a configuration received from the base station, a first set of CG PUSCHs. Each CG PUSCH of the first set of CG PUSCHs overlaps with the PUCCH, and is configured to transmit data from the UE to the base station. The UE further determines a second set of CG PUSCHs by excluding a third set of CG PUSCHs from the first set of CG PUSCHs. and select a CG PUSCH from the second set of CG PUSCHs to carry the UCI contained in the PUCCH. The UE further transmits the selected CG PUSCH including the UCI without transmitting the PUCCH.

Multiplexing uplink control information (UCI) on physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH)

A network cell is connected to a user equipment (UE) that supports an independent measurement gap configuration. The cell establishes a connection to the UE, receives an indication that the UE supports an independent measurement gap configuration for new radio in an unlicensed spectrum (NR-U) and transmits measurement gap configuration information to the UE, wherein the UE configures a measurement gap pattern based on the measurement gap configuration information.

Network operations for independent measurement gap configuration

Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE), comprising: obtaining one or more indications associated with uplink transmission scheduled by one or more uplink (UL) grants, the one or more UL grants including a UL grant for a physical uplink share channel (PUSCH) with uplink control information (UCI), selecting a UL grant for transmission from the one or more UL grants based at least in part upon the one or more indications, such that the UL grant for the PUSCH with UCI is prioritized for selection, and causing a PUSCH corresponding to the selected UL grant to be transmitted.

Uplink grant prioritization enhancement

Systems and methods are provided for controlling behavior for overriding grants for channel state information (CSI) feedback. A user equipment (UE) may control override of a first grant of a first radio resource by a second grant of a second radio resource. The UE determines that the second radio resource at least partially overlaps with the first radio resource. The UE also determines a physical layer priority of the first grant of the first radio resource and the second grant of the second radio resource. The physical layer priority is based on at least one of the first grant of the first radio resource and the second grant of the second radio resource being configured for transmitting CSI feedback over a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) to a base station. The UE then generates a transmission according to the physical layer priority.

Systems and methods for overriding grants for CSI-feedback

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to provide an interruption mechanism for deactivated secondary cell measurement in new radio.

Interruption mechanism for deactivated secondary cell measurement

Methods and wireless communication systems are provided for uplink control information (UCI) multiplexing with physical layer (PHY) priority and logical channel (LCH) based prioritization.

UCI multiplexing with physical layer priority and LCH based prioritization

The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to provide SCell activation. In one example, an SCell activation procedure may be extended by a duration based on cancelation of CSI-RS reception. In another example, a base station may use particular configuration parameters to avoid cancelation of CSI-RS reception. In yet another example, a UE and a base station may use particular information for a CSI-RS reception/transmission on an SCell that is being activated.

Secondary cell (SCell) activation in a new radio (NR) system

Performing UCI multiplexing includes generating PUCCH resources Z at an L1 HP procedure and an L1 LP procedure. The L1 HP procedure and the L1 LP procedure results in a plurality of HP PUCCHs and LP PUCCHs, respectively. A modified procedure for Set Q to resources Z is performed with the plurality of HP PUCCHs and LP PUCCHs as inputs. The plurality of HP PUCCHs according to starting symbols is scanned to identify an earliest starting HP PUCCH. A PUCCH from the plurality of LP PUCCHs or HP PUCCHS that overlaps with the earliest starting HP PUCCH is collected. Inter-L1 priority multiplexing is performed on the earliest starting HP PUCCH and the collected PUCCH, which may result in a new HP PUCCH. The new HP PUCCH is inserted into the Set Q. The modified procedure is repeated until there is no overlap among the HP PUCCHs and the LP PUCCHs.
