Abstract: An apparatus configured to be employed in a gNodeB associated with a new radio (NR) communication system is disclosed. The apparatus comprises one or more processors configured to configure partial spatial reference information associated with at least one sounding reference signal (SRS) resource set of one or more SRS resource sets associated with a user equipment (UE), that forms a select SRS resource set. In some embodiments, the partial spatial reference information comprises information on a partial spatial reference resource configured for one or more SRS resources associated with the select SRS resource set, to be utilized by the UE to generate one or more SRS transmit beam patterns for transmitting the one or more SRS resources, respectively, such that the one or more SRS transmit beam patterns are in a spatial neighborhood of a beam pattern associated with the configured partial spatial reference resource.

Abstract: Future LTE systems will support massive carrier aggregation that necessitates transmission of a large number of acknowledgement signals (HARQ-ACKs) in response to downlink data transmitted over multiple component carriers. Described herein are methods and apparatus for efficiently transmitting HARQ-ACK and periodic channel state information (P-CSI) bits over the PUCCH (physical uplink control channel).

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include user equipment (UE), evolved node B (eNB), methods, and systems for narrowband Internet-of-Things (IoT) communications. Some embodiments particularly relate to control channel communications between UE and eNB in narrowband IoT communications. In one embodiment, a UE blind decodes a first control transmission from an evolved node B (eNB) by processing a first physical resource block comprising all subcarriers of the transmission bandwidth and all orthogonal frequency division multiplexed symbols of a first subframe to determine the first control transmission. In various further embodiments, various resource groupings of resource elements are used as part of the control communications.

Abstract: Technology for a Next Generation NodeB (gNB) operable to encode downlink control information (DCI) for transmission to a user equipment (UE) is disclosed. The gNB can identify DCI for transmission from the gNB. The gNB can determine that a size of the DCI exceeds a defined threshold. The gNB can divide the DCI into one or more DCI segments. Each DCI segment can include header information to enable the one or more DCI segments to be assembled at the UE. The gNB can encode the one or more DCI segments of the DCI for transmission from the gNB to the UE.

Abstract: Devices and methods of using xSS are generally disclosed. A UE receives an xPSS with (Nrep) symbols each with a subcarrier spacing of K×a PSS subcarrier spacing and a duration of a PSS symbol/K. PSD subcarriers surround the xPSS and the ZC sequence is punctured to avoid transmission on a DC subcarrier. Guard subcarriers separate the xPSS and PSD when the ZC sequence is less than the occupied BW of the xPSS and at least one element in the ZC sequence is punctured for xPSS symbol generation otherwise. One or more xSSSs and xS-SCHs may follow the xPSS. The xSS may be omnidirectional, each having a same xPSS and different xSSS or xS-SCH or a different xPSS and same xSSS or xS-SCH or beamformed, each having different xPSSs and xSSSs or xS-SCHs or a same xPSS and different xSSS or xS-SCH.

Abstract: Techniques for detecting puncturing of a first PDSCH (physical downlink shared channel) associated with a UE (user equipment) by a second PDSCH with a shorter TTI (transmission time interval) are discussed. A base station (e.g., Evolved NodeB or eNB) can configure the UE for potential puncturing and/or parameter(s) of the second PDSCH. The UE can detect puncturing of the first PDSCH based on the configuration, and can discard punctured symbols to mitigate interference from the second PDSCH.

Abstract: Embodiments of a Machine Type Communication User Equipment (MTC UE), Next Generation Node-B (gNB) and methods of communication are generally described herein. The MTC UE may determine a system timing based on reception of a primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a secondary synchronization signal (SSS). The MTC UE may receive, from the gNB, radio resource control (RRC) signaling that indicates one or more parameters of a configurable resynchronization signal (RSS). The RSS may be for resynchronization, by the MTC UE, after the MTC UE awakens from a power save mode. The parameters of the RSS in the RRC signaling may depend on a target coverage of the MTC UE. The MTC UE may determine an updated system timing based on reception of the RSS.

Abstract: Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE) operable to communicate with a fifth-generation Evolved Node-B (gNB) on a wireless network. The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry, a second circuitry, and a third circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to detect a beam failure event. The second circuitry may be operable to generate a beam failure recovery request for transmission to the gNB, in response to the beam failure event. The third circuitry may be operable to monitor for Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) in a search space configured by the gNB, subsequent to a transmission of the beam failure recovery request.
