    Abstract: A method for a wireless communications system is disclosed. In one example, a user equipment (UE) device (e.g. a mobile phone) provides a UE beam sweeping number to a network node. Based on the UE beam sweeping number, the network node provides configuration information or allocates a resource to the UE device. The UE device can use the configuration information or the resource for measurement. The beam sweeping number refers to the number of time intervals that the UE device would need to generate multiple sets of UE beams, one set per time interval, that would cover all possible directions in which the UE device sends and/or receives transmissions, in a manner that resembles a sweeping of UE beams.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for mobile terminated small data transmission in a wireless communication system. A User Equipment (UE) can apply Downlink (DL) Semi Persistent Scheduling (SPS) in a Mobile Terminated Small Data Transmission (MT-SDT) procedure. The UE can handle the configured DL assignment for DL SPS. A method for a UE in a wireless communication system can comprise receiving one or more configurations of DL SPS for Radio Resource Control Inactive (RRC_INACTIVE) state, initiating a MT-SDT procedure in response to receiving a paging indicating MT-SDT, receiving, in RRC_INACTIVE state, one or more DL transmissions using a configured DL assignment for the DL SPS during the MT-SDT procedure, and keeping the one or more configurations of the DL SPS and entering RRC_CONNECTED state in response to receiving a RRC resume message during the MT-SDT procedure.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for User Equipment (UE) location reporting in a wireless communication system to facilitate efficiency in measurement reporting in Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTNs). A method for a UE in a wireless communication system comprises receiving a first configuration to trigger measurement reporting based on a first event that distance between the UE and a first reference location of a serving cell becomes larger than a distance threshold and distance between the UE and a second reference location of a first neighbor cell becomes shorter than another distance threshold, and triggering a first measurement report based on the first event, wherein measured radio condition of the first neighbor cell is omitted or not included in the first measurement report.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed. In an example from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE), the UE receives, via a Radio Resource Control (RRC) message, a resource configuration of a first configured grant to be used in RRC inactive state. The UE performs a first new transmission using the first configured grant in RRC inactive state. After the performing the first new transmission, the UE receives an uplink grant in RRC inactive state via Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). The UE determines whether the uplink grant is for performance of a second new transmission or for performance of a first retransmission. The UE performs the second new transmission using the uplink grant in RRC inactive state if the UE determines that the uplink grant is for performance of the second new transmission.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for deriving cell reference location in a wireless communication system. A method for a UE in the wireless communication system can comprise receiving information of a first reference location of a cell, receiving an assistance information associated with the cell, deriving and/or acquiring a second reference location of the cell based on at least the assistance information, and using the second reference location of the cell to evaluate a location-based event or measurement.
