    Abstract: Systems, methods, and circuitries are provided for enhancing unicast and groupcast communication in a wireless communication system also utilizing broadcast communication. An example apparatus for a user equipment (UE) wireless communication device, including baseband circuitry having a radio frequency (RF) interface configured to transmit and receive RF signals, and one or more processors is provided. The one or more processors are configured to generate a signal encoding one or more capabilities of the UE wireless communication device and transmit the signal to one or more other UE wireless communication devices.

    Abstract: An apparatus of a New Radio (NR) User Equipment (UE), a method and system. The apparatus includes baseband circuitry including a radio frequency (RF) interface and one or more processors coupled to the RF interface and configured to execute the instructions to: encode a plurality of Transport Blocks (TBs) and encode a first uplink transmission using the TBs and in a grant-free mode to a NR evolved Node B (gNodeB); decode a downlink control information (DCI) from the gNodeB; based on the DCI, encode a second uplink transmission using the TBs to the gNodeB, wherein the second uplink transmission is one of in a grant-free mode and in a grant-based mode, and wherein the DCI includes information on an identification (ID) for a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledge feedback (HARQ) process (HARQ process ID) corresponding to the second uplink transmission, the HARQ process ID being based on a resource configuration index corresponding to the second uplink transmission; and send the TBs, the first encoded uplink transmission, and the second encoded uplink transmission to the RF interface.

    Abstract: Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE) and methods of communication are generally described herein. The UE may select one or more of the component carriers (CCs) of a carrier aggregation, and may transmit a sidelink synchronization signal (SLSS) and a physical sidelink broadcast channel (PSBCH) on the one or more selected CCs. The UE may encode the PSBCH to include a plurality of parameters related to the sidelink operation, wherein the plurality of parameters are to be propagated across all of the CCs of the plurality of CCs for the sidelink operation. The UE may transmit one or more physical sidelink shared channels (PSSCHs) in accordance with the carrier aggregation, and further in accordance with the plurality of parameters propagated across the plurality of CCs.

    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for communicating in a wireless network based on a prioritization status. User equipment can receive a first signal that includes an indicator. The UE can determine a prioritization status for a second signal based on the prioritization indicator. The UE can communicate, with one or more radio access networks (RANs) of a network, the second signal, where the timeline of the second signal can be out of order respective of other signals communicated by the UE and the wireless network. The second signal can include data transmitted by an ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) service. The UE can communicate the second signal out of order with respect to one or more additional signals. The UE, based on the indicator, can communicate hybrid automated repeat request (HARQ) feedback before a HARQ feedback timeline of a non-urgent transmission.

    Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques for controlling uplink transmissions including cancelling previously scheduled transmissions are described. A described technique includes receiving, by a user equipment (UE), a configuration information that provides a search space set configuration associated with a control resource set (CORESET) to monitor for an uplink cancellation indication; receiving, by the UE, scheduling information that schedules one or more uplink transmissions; monitoring, by the UE via a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH), for the uplink cancellation indication based on the configuration information; receiving, by the UE via the PDCCH, a downlink control information (DCI) message that comprises the uplink cancellation indication; and cancelling, by the UE, at least part of the one or more uplink transmissions in response to the uplink cancellation indication.
