Abstract: Methods and systems to activate beams for beam switching based on measurements of a downlink reference signal that is QCL Type-D with a downlink pathloss reference signal are disclosed. A UE may measure and report to a base station the RSRP of the reference signal that is QCL Type-D with a target downlink pathloss reference signal. Based on the reported RSRP measurements, the base station may activate the target pathloss reference signal to command the UE to update the pathloss measurements of the target pathloss reference signal for uplink power control of a beam corresponding to the target pathloss reference signal. The UE may determine whether the target pathloss reference signal is considered known for uplink power control based on the timing relationship among the reception of the reference signal from the base station, the transmission of the RSRP measurement of the reference signal, and reception of the activation command.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE), baseband processor or other network device (e.g., base station, next generation NodeB, etc.) can operate to process or generate measurement gap configurations associated with multiple universal subscriber identity modules (MUSIM) with dual subscriber identify modules (SIMs). A UE can perform a system information request or an SI reading with or without the SI request based on a UE configured interruption or a preconfigured measurement gap configuration to read a system information block (SIB) 1 and at least one other SIB of SI associated with the target network.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide channel state information (CSI) measurement based on measuring a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) for a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission. A UE may determine the DMRS for the PDSCH transmission with frequency hopping, and measure the DMRS for the PDSCH transmission to determine a CSI measurement. The UE may then report the CSI measurement to a base station.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) can operate in an unlicensed network for sidelink (SL) communications to generate SL transmission with multiple RB sets to include physical resource blocks (PRBs) in an intra-cell guard band between two adjacent RB sets that are associated with a first RB set or a second RB set. PRBs of the intra-cell guard band can belong to the first RB set with a lower frequency than the intra-cell guard band or belong to a second RB set with a higher frequency than the intra-cell guard band.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) includes a transceiver and a processor. The processor is configured to receive, from a network and via the transceiver, a configuration for a multiple layer physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission using more than one codeword. The processor is also configured to transmit, via the transceiver and in accordance with the configuration for the multiple layer PUSCH transmission that uses more than one codeword, the multiple layer PUSCH transmission. The multiple layer PUSCH transmission is transmitted on at least a first layer of the multiple layers using a first codeword of the more than one codeword, and on at least a second layer of the multiple layers using a second codeword of the more than one codeword.

Abstract: Activating an uplink (UL) gap at a base station may include decoding a user equipment (UE) UL gap capability report received from a UE. A radio resource control (RRC) UL gap configuration may be encoded for transmission to the UE. A power headroom report (PHR) medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) received from the UE may be decoded. The PHR MAC CE may include at least one of a P value or a power management maximum power reduction (P-MPR) value. Decoding the measurement information may include determining that the P value is equal to one or the P-MPR value is greater than zero. Based on determining that the P value is equal to one or the P-MPR value is greater than zero, the UL gap configuration may be implicitly activated.

Abstract: Systems and methods for using clear channel assessment (CCA) on a channel prior to transmitting the channel are disclosed. A wireless transmission system may perform omnidirectional CCA using a CCA power threshold that is calculated based on a number of synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) transmitted by the wireless transmission system per SSB burst or per synchronization signal/physical broadcast channel (SS/PBCH) block measurement timing configuration (SMTC) window, or on a number of transmit (Tx) antennas used. A wireless transmission system may perform directional CCA on one or more Rx beams that correspond to one or more intended Tx beams using CCA power thresholds calculated based on an equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP) of the one or more intended Tx beams to determine directional availability of the channel. A wireless transmission system may determine a CCA power threshold based on a scaling between an actual CCA bandwidth and a nominal CCA bandwidth.
