Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed. In an example from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE), the UE keeps a dedicated Preconfigured Uplink Resources (PUR) configuration when the UE is in Radio Resource Control (RRC) idle state and a serving cell of the UE is a second cell, wherein the UE is configured with the dedicated PUR configuration in a first cell different than the second cell. The UE selects a third cell during a RRC connection re-establishment procedure. In response to the selecting the third cell, the UE determines whether or not to release the dedicated PUR configuration based upon whether or not the third cell is the same as the first cell, wherein the determining whether or not to release the dedicated PUR configuration is performed when the UE is in RRC connected state.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed. In an example from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE), the UE triggers a Power Headroom Report (PHR) when the UE is in Radio Resource Control (RRC) inactive state. The UE determines whether or not to cancel the PHR based upon whether or not an uplink (UL) resource for transmission in the RRC inactive state can accommodate first pending data available for transmission.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed. In an example from the perspective of a User Equipment (UE), a signal to configure the UE to perform a Random Access Channel-less (RACH-less) handover to a second cell may be received in a first cell, wherein the signal comprises a candidate list of beams for Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) monitoring in the second cell and/or the signal is indicative of a first beam of the candidate list of beams (to be used by the UE for PDCCH monitoring). A PDCCH in the second cell on the first beam may be monitored before receiving a Medium Access Control (MAC) Control Element (CE) assigning a second beam for PDCCH monitoring in the second cell.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for selecting beam for preconfigured uplink resources in a wireless communication system are disclosed herein. In one method, a user equipment (UE) receives, from a network node, a signaling to configure at least one Preconfigured Uplink Resource (PUR) associated with one or more beams from multiple beams. The UE selects a first beam from the multiple beams and performs a transmission of data in RRC_INACTIVE state using the at least one PUR via the first beam if the first beam fulfills at least one condition, wherein the at least one condition comprises that the first beam is associated with the at least one PUR and Reference Symbol Received Power (RSRP) of the first beam is better than a first threshold. The UE initiates a Random Access (RA) procedure and performs the transmission during the RA procedure if no beam of the multiple beams fulfills the at least one condition.

Abstract: A method for a wireless communications system is disclosed. In one example, a user equipment (UE) (e.g. a mobile phone), receives an indication from a network about one or more UE beams that the UE can use for transmission or reception. The UE uses the one or more UE beams for transmission or reception. If and when a certain condition is fulfilled, for example, there is a beam tracking failure, the UE transmits or receives a specific signal via a specific UE beam. The specific UE beam is different from the one or more UE beams that were indicated by the network, and is selected by the UE.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for user equipment beamforming operation in a wireless communication system. In one method, a user equipment receives a first configuration or a first scheduling to request the UE to perform a first Uplink (UL) transmission on a first UE beam, wherein the first UL transmission is to be performed in a first time unit. The UE receives a second configuration or a second scheduling to request the UE to perform a second UL transmission on a second UE beam, wherein the second UL transmission is to be performed in a second time unit. The UE performs the first UL transmission on the first UE beam and drops the second UL transmission on the second UE beam if the second time unit is at least partially overlapped with the first time unit.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for random access in a wireless communication system are disclosed herein. In one method, a user equipment (UE) performs a first attempt of a random access procedure to communicate with a cell via at least a first UE beam. The UE performs a second attempt of the random access procedure to communicate with the cell via at least a second UE beam when the first attempt fails, in which the direction of the first UE beam and the direction of the second UE beam are different.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for handling a SCell deactivation timer in a wireless communication system are disclosed herein. In one method, a network node configures a UE with a first SCell. The network node configures the UE to use a first SCell deactivation timer for the first SCell. The network node configures the UE with a SPS resource on the first SCell. The network node configures the UE not to use the first SCell deactivation timer if a length of the first SCell deactivation timer is shorter than a SPS interval of the SPS resource.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed from the perspective of a network node. In one embodiment, the method includes the network node transmitting a first slot format information (SFI) to a User Equipment (UE), wherein the first SFI indicates transmitted direction of symbols of a first set of slots. The method also includes the network node transmitting a second SFI carried by a group common physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) to the UE, wherein the second SFI indicates transmitted direction of symbols of a second set of slots, and wherein if the first set of slots and the second set of slots are partially overlapped in time domain and the second SFI is transmitted after the first SFI, transmitted direction of overlapped symbols indicated by the second SFI is aligned with transmitted direction of the overlapped symbols indicated by the first SFI.
