Abstract: Provided is a method for a user equipment (UE). The UE obtains, from a network device, a first configuration information. The first configuration information indicates a first resource set for an aperiodic Sounding Reference Signal (AP-SRS). The first resource set for the AP-SRS includes a first list of slot offsets. The UE decodes a second configuration information from the network device. The second configuration information indicates a reference slot and a first slot offset of the first list of slot offsets. The UE generates the AP-SRS for transmission to the network device based on the reference slot and the first slot offset.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to transmit cancelled hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback. The UE generating HARQ feedback for one or more HARQ process corresponding to a component carrier (CC), identifies that a scheduled transmission for the HARQ feedback has been cancelled and retransmits the cancelled HARQ feedback using a type 3 HARQ codebook.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) monitors a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH). The UE receives a configuration for a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) including repetitions for PDCCH candidates comprising first PDCCH data, wherein the PDCCH candidates are repeated across multiple durations of a DL resource grid, detects, based on a repetition detection scheme, each of the PDCCH candidates and combines soft bits from each of the PDCCH candidates, wherein the combined soft bits are jointly decoded to determine the first PDCCH data and calculates a number of blind decodes (BDs) for the durations of the DL resource grid carrying the PDCCH candidates, wherein at least one BD value for the PDCCH candidates is scaled by a scaling factor for the calculation of the number of BDs.

Abstract: Approaches for performing Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmissions include receiving, by a user equipment (UE) from a base station, an indicator of a plurality of precoders corresponding to M Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) repetitions, wherein M is an integer. A plurality of precoders corresponding to two or more of the M PUSCH repetitions are indicated. The UE configures the plurality of precoders based on the indicator and transmits one or more of the M Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) repetitions corresponding to one or more of the plurality of precoders. The indicator can be provided in higher layer signaling. One or more transmission rank indicator (TRIs) and transmission precoder matrix indicators (TPMIs) for the M PUSCH repetitions can be provided. The indicator can be provided in a scheduling downlink control indicator (DCI) communication. The indicator can also be provided within N sounding reference signal (SRS) resource indicator(s) (SRIs) of the scheduling DCI.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for calculating and compensating for Doppler shift in a high-speed environment. When in a high-speed environment, Doppler shifts on a transmitted radio frequency signal can become extremely large, which may make it difficult or even impossible for a receiving device to accurately decipher the signal. Therefore, embodiments of the present disclosure describe how tracking reference signals can be transmitted from multiple transmission/reception points, and processed by the UE. For example, the TRS transmitted from the TRP can be enhanced to allow for TRS information from two different TRPs. Additionally, or alternatively, a flag can be set within TRS information that identifies it as having originated from either a first TRP or a second TRP. Additionally, the UE can calculate Doppler shift information and report that information back to the base station in a report message, such as an SRS message. In this manner, the base station can precompensate for the Doppler shift.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for signaling unused channel occupancy time (COT) to the gNB for COT sharing among other UEs. Upon determining that a portion of the maximum COT (MCOT) provided to the UE will be unused, the UE can generate COT sharing information for transmission back to the gNB. The COT sharing information identifies a starting point and a duration (e.g., a number of consecutive slots) of the unused portion of the MCOT. This information is then encoded into configured grant uplink control information (UG-UCI) and transmitted to the gNB as part of the uplink transmission. In aspects, the unused portion may begin part-way through a slot. In this instance, a starting symbol of the unused portion or an ending symbol of the used portion may also be encoded into the uplink transmission. In this manner, unused COT is not wasted, but rather repurposed by the gNB.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing downlink transmission and interlace uplink transmission. For example, some aspects of this disclosure relate to a base station including a transceiver configured to communicate over a wireless network with a user equipment (UE) and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor divides a plurality of candidate Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) positions in a time window into a plurality of groups and communicates, using the transceiver, information associated with the plurality of groups of candidate SSB positions to the UE. The processor further performs a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure. In response to the LBT procedure being successful, the processor determines a first group of the plurality of groups and transmits, using the transceiver, one or more SSBs on one or more candidate SSB positions of the first group to the UE.
