Abstract: A base station including at least one processor, and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the base station at least to configure a user equipment, UE, with a bandwidth part associated with a non-serving cell, and with a reference signal associated with the bandwidth part, and to activate a transmission configuration indicator, ICI, state for PDCCH and/or PDSCH reception within the bandwidth part. The activated TCI state comprises quasi-co-located, QCL, information associated with the reference signal or with a further reference signal.

Abstract: An example method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium are provided for enabling beam based discovery and direct connectivity using network assisted beam discovery and corresponding signaling to at least reduce sweep time and beam acquisition for D2D discovery operations. In an example implementation, the method may include determining, by a network device of a communication network, information comprising including an indication of at least one of data, a control element, or a relative reference point for identifying a beam sweeping angular spread for device-to-device discovery operations for device-to-device communication. The example method may further include sending towards a set of network nodes the information for the device-to-device discovery in the communication network.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for dynamically adapting scheduling parameter(s) to achieve power savings. A user equipment may be configured with one or more offsets between scheduled PDCCH and PDSCH transmissions. The user equipment may receive from a network an indication to dynamically change these offsets. If the user equipment sleeps through a first transmission of this indication, upon next receiving the indication the user equipment may update, for example, the offset in a time domain resource allocation table. The indication to dynamically change an offset may be an indication of an offset including fewer slots. A change to the offset, with which downlink transmission is expected by the user equipment, may be disabled. A network node may be configured to transmit downlink traffic to the user equipment according to a configured offset and/or according to an offset the network node indicated to the user equipment.

Abstract: Certain example embodiments provide systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for a handover of a coordinated multi-point connection. For example, certain embodiment may transfer a first coordinated multi-point connection (e.g., a further enhanced multiple input multiple output (FeMIMO) connection) to a second coordinated multi-point connection where the network may instruct the UE to not perform at least one random access procedure. The first coordinated multi-point connection may be controlled by a first cell (the serving cell) where the UE is ready to receive from and transmit to a first set of cells that comprises the serving cell and one or more non-serving cells. After handover, the second coordinated multi-point connection may be controlled by a previous non-serving cell, and the UE may be ready to receive from and transmit to a second set of cells that comprises the previous non-serving cell.
