Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are related to a method performed by a user equipment (UE). The method includes selecting a candidate resource set with a plurality of candidate resources from a resource selection window. The plurality of candidate resources includes a reserved resource that is reserved by at least one other UE. The method includes determining that the reserved resource is associated with a priority level PRX that is higher than a transmission priority level PTX associated with the UE. The method further includes excluding the reserved resource from the candidate resource set based at least in part on the determining.

Abstract: A base station maps physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates and PDCCH transmissions for multi-transmission reception point (TRP) operation. The base station determines that a control resource set (CORESET) is to be shared by at least a first TRP and a second TRP corresponding to a cell of a network, performs resource element group (REG) bundle to virtual REG bundle mapping on a per TRP basis, wherein multiple REG bundles are indexed on the per TRP basis, performs virtual REG bundle interleaving across the first TRP and the second TRP, performs control channel element (CCE) to interleaved REG bundle mapping and transmits downlink control information (DCI) using the CORESET, wherein the CORESET is configured based on, at least, the CCE to interleaved REG bundle mapping.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for reducing likelihood of Random Access Channel (RACH) transmission blockages and thereby facilitate an initial access procedure for new radio (NR) unlicensed spectrum (NR-U) operation in a fifth generation (5G) wireless communication system including an NR node. In some embodiments, a parameter generated by a gNB and received by a UE indicates that, from among a set of consecutive RACH Occasions (ROs), a gap is available for performing a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure before commencing a RACH transmission.

Abstract: Methods and devices for a UE to multiplex uplink control information (UCI). The UE establishes a connection with a base station. The UE determines whether to multiplex first UCI by first identifying whether intra-priority timing overlap exists between the timing resources of the first UCI and a PUSCH with the same priority. Subsequently, the UE identifies whether inter-priority timing overlap exists between the timing resources of the first UCI and a second PUCCH with a different priority from the first PUCCH. Finally, the UE identifies whether the timing resources of the first UCI overlap with a second PUSCH with a different priority than the first PUCCH. The UE multiplexes the first UCI based on the determination whether to multiplex the first UCI, and transmits the multiplexed first UCI to the base station.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) monitors a Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) during a random access channel (PRACH) procedure. The UE receives a physical random access channel (PRACH) resource on a first sub-band of a component carrier (CC), wherein the CC is divided into a plurality of sub-bands and receives a Type1-PDCCH CSS (Physical Downlink Control Channel Common Search Space) set on a second sub-band of the CC, wherein the Type1-PDCCH CSS set corresponds to the PRACH resource.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for a user equipment (UE) to transmit a configured grant (CG) physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) including an uplink control information (UCI) without transmitting a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH). The UE determines, based on a configuration received from the base station, a first set of CG PUSCHs. Each CG PUSCH of the first set of CG PUSCHs overlaps with the PUCCH, and is configured to transmit data from the UE to the base station. The UE further determines a second set of CG PUSCHs by excluding a third set of CG PUSCHs from the first set of CG PUSCHs. and select a CG PUSCH from the second set of CG PUSCHs to carry the UCI contained in the PUCCH. The UE further transmits the selected CG PUSCH including the UCI without transmitting the PUCCH.
