    Abstract: Embodiments of this disclosure provide techniques for signaling in power save mode. In particular, a UE may identify an association between a set of time durations for paging a downlink control indicator (DCI) transmission and a wake up signal (WUS) in a set of WUSs. Paging the DCI is transmitted in a beam sweeping manner and each beam used in each time duration in the set of time durations corresponds to a respective beam used for a WUS transmission in the set of WUSs. The UE monitors a radio link quality of WUSs in the set of WUSs and, based thereon, selects a first WUS in the set of WUSs. The UE identifies a first time duration for DCI page monitoring, the first time duration corresponding to the first WUS. The UE monitors the DCI page during the first time duration.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for sidelink beam sweeping includes transmitting, by a first electronic device and to a base station, uplink sounding reference signals (UL-SRSs) on N UL-SRS resources using N transmit beam patterns, where N is an integer greater than 1, receiving, by the first electronic device and from the base station, information associated with sidelink beam management (SL-BM), where the information associated with SL-BM indicates SL resources allocated to the first electronic device and beam pattern indices indicating transmit beam patterns for SL-BM, and transmitting, by the first electronic device and to a second electronic device, one or more sidelink beam management reference signals (SL-BMRSs), based on the received information associated with SL-BM, using one or more of the indicated transmit beam patterns.

    Abstract: A method for measuring beams includes determining a measurement period duration in accordance with periods of one or more periodic beam failure detection (BFD) reference signals (RSs) of a BFD RS set, wherein the BFD RSs of the one or more BFD RSs of the BFD RS set have a quasi-co-located (QCL) relationship with demodulation RSs (DMRSs) of PDCCH receptions monitored by a user equipment (UE), monitoring a subset of the one or more BFD RSs having the QCL relationship with the DMRSs of PDCCH receptions monitored by the UE that occur during a measurement period, and determining that measures of all BFD RSs in the subset of the one or more BFD RSs do not meet a specified threshold, and based thereon, reporting a beam failure (BF) instance.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for operating in a reduced power mode (RPM) of a user equipment (UE) in communications with a base station pursusant to a normal power mode (NPM). The NPM is characterized by one or more normal-power parameters comprising a normal sampling frequency and a normal signal bandwidth. The RPM is characterized by one or more reduced-power parameters comprising a reduced sampling frequency or a partial signal bandwidth. The UE determines whether to enter into the RPM for a duration. In response to determining to enter into the RPM for the duration, the UE powers down into the RPM by operating with the one or more reduced-power parameters for the duration of the RPM. Upon expiry of the duration of the RPM by the UE, the UE powers up into the NPM by resuming to the sampling frequency of the NPM and the signal bandwidth of the NPM.
