Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques for wireless communications are described. A described technique includes receiving, by a user equipment (UE) from one or more Transmission and Reception Points (TRPs), a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission; determining, by the UE for a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) carrying hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK), a TRP index in accordance with a control resource set (CORESET) scheduling the PDSCH transmission; and transmitting, by the UE via the PUCCH, HARQ-ACK information based on the receiving of the PDSCH transmission in accordance with the TRP index.

Abstract: Embodiments for determining that a first physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) resource and a second PUCCH resource at least partially overlap are provided. The first PUCCH resource has a payload of a first size carrying a first uplink control information (UCI) in a first format, and the second PUCCH resource has a payload of a second size carrying a second UCI in a second format. Furthermore, the first UCI and the second UCI are multiplexed to form a combined payload to be carried by the first PUCCH resource in the first format or by the second PUCCH resource in the second format. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments of a User Equipment (UE), Next Generation Node-B (gNB) and methods of communication are generally described herein. The UE may receive an information element (IE) that includes: a higher layer parameter that indicates a plurality of modulation and coding scheme (MCS) thresholds; and another higher layer parameter that includes a plurality of resource block (RB) thresholds. The UE may determine a time density of phase tracking reference signal (PT-RS) to be transmitted by the UE based at least partly on a comparison between a MCS and the plurality of MCS thresholds. The UE may determine a frequency density of the PT-RS based at least partly on a comparison between a scheduled bandwidth and the plurality of RB thresholds. The UE may encode the PT-RS for transmission in accordance with the determined time density and the determined frequency density.

Abstract: Some embodiments of this disclosure include systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media for use in a wireless network for beam failure recovery (BFR). For example, some embodiments are directed to a user equipment (UE). The UE includes radio front end circuitry and processor circuitry coupled to the radio front end circuitry. The processor circuitry can be configured to receive, using the radio front end circuitry, one or more reference signals. The processor circuitry can be further configured to, in response to determining that a beam failure occurred for the one or more reference signals, determine a contention-free (CF) physical random access channel (PRACH) resource for a beam failure recovery (BFR) request. The processor circuitry can be further configured to transmit, using the radio front circuitry, the BFR request using the determined CF PRACH resource.

Abstract: An apparatus can receive or transmit parameters for a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission configuration as an uplink (UL)/downlink (DL) configuration of a serving cell. A time division duplex (TDD) operation with a plurality of component carriers (CCs) can be enabled/generated based on the parameters and at least one component carriers being reserved for the UL transmission or having a higher priority than a physical channel transmission such as a physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission or a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) transmission.

Abstract: Described herein are methods and apparatus for implementing discontinuous reception (DRX) states in user equipments (UE) in order to conserve battery power. In particular, methods and apparatus for signaling the UE to transition between different DRX states using L1 signaling such as over the physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) are described.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are apparatuses, systems, and methods for reference signal design for initial acquisition, by receiving a first primary synchronization signal (PSS) and a first secondary synchronization signal (SSS) from a first transmit (Tx) beam, in first contiguous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols of a downlink subframe. A UE can receive at least a second PSS and a second SSS from a second Tx beam in contiguous OFDM symbols of the downlink subframe. A UE can then detect beamforming reference signals (BRSs) corresponding to the first Tx beam and the second Tx beam, based on identification of physical cell ID information and timing information processed from the first PSS, the second PSS, the first SSS, and the second SSS. The UE can select the first Tx beam or the second Tx beam that was received with the highest power, based on the BRSs. Other embodiments are described.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to a communication between a user equipment (UE) and an evolved Node B (eNB). The UE and eNB may perform enhanced physical downlink control channel (EPDCCH)-less operation for scheduling of one or more common control messages, such as one or more system information blocks (SIBs), a random access response (RAR) message, or a paging message. Additionally, or alternatively, an eNB may configure a subset of aggregation levels for the search space of the UE to use for receiving a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) or enhanced PDCCH (EPDCCH). Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: A method is provided to generate and control transmission of reference symbols in a synchronization subframe, wherein a reference symbol includes reference values mapped to a block of K subcarriers. The method includes generating data corresponding to a basic subsequence of K−R1−R2 reference values, where R1 and R2 are integers such that 1≤R1+R2
