A method determines a number of physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) symbols and a number of PSSCH demodulation reference signal (DMRS) symbols that will occur in a timeslot that is used for scheduling. PSSCH DMRS locations in the timeslot are derived based on applying the PSSCH DMRS symbols and the PSSCH DMRS symbols to a look-up table. A number of PSSCH DMRS resource elements (REs) is calculated based on the PSSCH DMRS locations and a scheduled number of PSSCH sub-channels. This number of PSSCH DMRS REs is used to determine a transport block size (TBS) included in transmissions over a sidelink channel.

Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for a user equipment (UE) having dual connectivity. The UE can communicate with a first primary base station in a first primary cell (PCell) and a second primary base station in a second PCell. The UE has dual connectivity in the second PCell using a first wireless carrier to communicate with the second primary base station and a second wireless carrier to communicate with a secondary base station in a primary secondary cell (PSCell). The UE receives a message from the first primary base station to perform a handover procedure. The UE performs the handover procedure according to the received message, and further perform an addition procedure for the secondary base station in parallel with the handover procedure. A start time of the addition procedure can be before an end time of the handover procedure.

A user equipment (UE) is connected to a 5G New Radio (NR) network via a serving cell. The UE performs radio resource management (RRM) measurements on the serving cell, determines whether the UE satisfies power saving criteria for a first, second, or third mobility scenario while in a Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle state or RRC inactive state, wherein, when the UE is in the first or second mobility scenario, the UE performs RRM measurements with longer intervals relative to RRM measurements performed in a non-power-saving mode and wherein, when the UE is in the third scenario, the UE performs RRM measurements for neighbor cells with longer intervals relative to RRM measurements performed in a non-power-saving mode and determines a UE RRM configuration when the UE transitions from any of the power saving scenarios or the non-power-saving mode to any other power saving scenarios or the non-power-saving mode.

Some embodiments include systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media for use in a wireless network for determining a reception (Rx) beam sweep scale factor, N, that enables a user equipment (UE) to perform Rx beam refinement. Some embodiments are directed to a 5G Node B (gNB) that includes processor circuitry and radio front end circuitry. The processor circuitry can be configured to receive, using the radio front end circuitry, a MaxNumberRxB cam capability of the UE. The processor circuitry can determine based at least on the MaxNumberRxBeam capability of the UE and/or a Channel-State Information (CSI)-reference signal (RS) set with a repetition parameter configured to be 'ON', the value of N. The processor circuitry can generate a message comprising the value N, and encode the message for transmission to the UE, where N Rx beam sweeps enable the UE to perform Rx beam refinement.

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.

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.
