Abstract: A method for enhanced physical downlink control channel monitoring (PDCCH) includes determining a monitoring span for monitoring a PDCCH within a slot, the monitoring span having a start symbol and a duration that spans one or more symbols within the slot. At least one of a maximum number of blind decoding (BD) attempts or a maximum number of control channel elements (CCEs) for channel estimation is determined based on the monitoring span. The PDCCH is monitored within the monitoring span up to the at least one of the maximum number of BD attempts or the maximum number of CCEs.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques for adjusting a user equipment (UE) processing time parameter in a wireless communication system that include transmission and reception points (TRPs) are described. A described technique performed by UE includes receiving a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) from a first TRP corresponding to a first scheduling physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) and a second PDSCH from a second TRP corresponding to a second scheduling PDCCH. The technique further includes transmitting a first hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) message and a second HARQ-ACK message based on the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH in accordance with a first processing time parameter and a second processing time parameter, respectively. The first processing time parameter can be based on a PDSCH mapping type, a processing capability of the UE, and one or more timing characteristics of the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) can include processing circuitry configured to decode control information of a physical down-in link control channel (PDCCH) received via a resource within a control resource set (CORESET) occupying a subset of a plurality of e OFDM symbols within a slot. At least one of the symbols in the subset coincides with a pre-defined symbol location associated with a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) of a PDSCH. The DM-RS can be detected within the slot, the DM-RS starting at a symbol 01 location that is shifted from the pre-defined symbol location and following the subset of symbols. Downlink data scheduled by the
PDCCH and received via the PDSCH can be decoded, where the decoding is based on the detected DM-RS.

Abstract: A method for physical downlink control channel (PD-CCH) monitoring by user equipment (UE includes receiving a specification indicative of a monitoring pattern for a search space set including a plurality of slots. The monitoring pattern includes one or more monitoring spans within the search space set. Each of the one or more monitoring spans is associated with a set of parameters defining that particular monitoring span. The method includes selecting at least one monitoring span of the one or more monitoring spans. The method includes assigning the UE to monitor the at least one monitoring span. The method includes performing, by the UE, PDCCH monitoring during the selected at least one monitoring span.

Abstract: In an example computer-implemented method, a user equipment (UE) receives first configuration data including an indication of a search space set for monitoring a wireless network for an uplink cancellation command, and second configuration including an indication to activate monitoring of the wireless network for an uplink cancellation command. The UE further receives a first physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including scheduling information for an uplink transmission. The UE monitors the wireless communications network for the uplink cancellation command in accordance with the search space set, and receives a second PDCCH from the wireless including the uplink cancellation command, where the uplink cancellation command includes an indication to cancel a first portion of the uplink transmission. The UE cancels a transmission of the first portion of the uplink transmission.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and circuitries are provided for determining fallback behavior in a user equipment (UE) wireless communication device. The method includes signaling an enhanced processing time capability and fallback type to the wireless network, wherein the processing time capability includes respective numbers of transport blocks per slot the UE can process mapped to different respective specified numbers of serving cells. A number of configured serving cells that support the enhanced processing time capability is determined. The method includes determining, based on the number of configured serving cells, a maximum number of transport blocks per slot that will be communicated between the UE and the configured serving cells. A fallback behavior based on the determined maximum number of transport blocks per slot and the fallback type is determined.

Abstract: Methods and architectures for establishing an uplink control channel in a fifth generation (5G) or new radio (NR) wireless network includes transmitting scheduling requests (SRs) at sub-slot level/symbol-level periodicities and determining whether SR transmit opportunities will collide with downlink (DL) signals being received and halting an SR transmission if the timing of DL symbols overlap at an OFDM symbol with the SR transmission.

Abstract: Systems and methods of early termination of uplink data transmissions for a UE are described. The UE transmits capacity information that indicates that the UE supports use of an ETS. The ETS indicates successful reception by the eNB of the uplink data prior to an end of a scheduled transmission period to transmit repeated instances of the data. The UE receives a schedule for repeated transmissions of the data that is based on a coverage level of the UE, and then transmits sets of one or more repetitions. After the transmission, the UE monitors a predetermined resource whether the ETS is present or whether the ETS indicates an ACK. If the ETS indicates successful reception, the UE terminates transmission of the remaining repetitions of the data and enters a sleep mode or transmits other uplink data.

Abstract: Techniques discussed herein can facilitate RS (Reference Signal) sequence generation and mapping, and/or precoder assignment, for NR (New Radio). One example embodiment employable at a NR wireless communication device comprises processing circuitry configured to: generate one or more PN (Pseudo Noise) sequences based at least in part on an initial state of a PN generator; extract, for each PRB (Physical Resource Block) of one or more PRBs, an associated portion of an associated PN sequence of the one or more PN sequences, based at least in part on a reference subcarrier index, independent of a bandwidth part configuration and of a maximum supported number of PRBs; and generate, for each PRB of the one or more PRBs, an associated set of RS(s) for that PRB based at least in part on the extracted associated portion of the associated PN sequence for that PRB.
