Abstract: This disclosure relates to performing beam failure recovery during an inter-cell connection involving a UE in communication with one or more base stations in a cellular communication system. In various embodiments, a user equipment determines one or more beam failures by monitoring one or more reference signals transmitted by one or more base stations, where the UE is connected to the one or more base stations. The UE further performs candidate beam detection by monitoring at least one candidate reference signal that is transmitted by one or more candidate base stations, where at least one candidate base station (a first candidate base station) is different from the one or more base stations to which the UE was previously communicating. The UE selects the first candidate base station based on the candidate beam detection, and transmits a beam failure recovery request (BFRQ) message to the first candidate base station based on the selection.

Abstract: In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, a user equipment (UE) may receive a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH) transmission via a slot i and a sub-channel j. The UE may determine, within a resource block (RB) set k and a physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) transmission occasion n, at least one interlace to use for a PSFCH transmission based at least in part on an index of the slot i, an index of the sub-channel j, a PSFCH periodicity, and a quantity of sub-channels in the RB set k. The UE may transmit the PSFCH transmission via the at least one interlace in the RB set k during the PSFCH transmission occasion n. The PSFCH transmission may include feedback for the PSSCH transmission.

Abstract: A network device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), or a new radio NB (gNB)) can process or generate a configuration of physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) monitoring in different search spaces sets independently from one another in order to manage different services optimally. A processor of the network device can be configured to receive physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) candidates of a PDCCH in a slot for channel estimation across search spaces of the slot. Different priorities can be determined among the PDCCH candidates in the slot based on a priority rule. Then a number of PDCCH candidates can be skipped/dropped from monitoring based on the different priorities of the PDCCH candidates to ensure that a threshold level of blind decoding operations across a plurality of slots of the PDCCH is being satisfied. The UE can monitor a portion of the PDCCH candidates while concurrently skipping another.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for beam reporting to facilitate multiple transmission and reception points, multi-TRPs, transmission schemes. A UE may receive, from a base station a configuration to report a beam quality based on at least one of a first reporting scheme and a second reporting scheme or a configuration of measurement resources for each TRP of a plurality of TRPs. The UE may report the beam quality based on the configuration or L1 measurements for multiple beam pairs and a recommended and/or assumed transmission scheme based on the configured measurement resources. The first reporting scheme may include the UE reporting at least one L1 measurement for multiple beams and the second reporting scheme may include the UE reporting at least one L1 measurement for multiple beam pairs. The recommended and/or assumed transmission scheme may be a non-coherent-joint transmission (NC-JT) transmission scheme and/or a single frequency network (SFN) transmission scheme.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to apparatuses and methods for providing and managing reception feedback for multicast and broadcast services (MBS). A base station (BS) may select and communicate, to a group of user equipment devices (UEs), configuration parameters for MBS communications, such as an indication of an MBS retransmission procedure for an MBS service. The BS may also transmit, to the group of UEs, an MBS data communication. A first UE may receive the MBS data communication, but may determine that the received MBS data communication is corrupted. The first UE may respond by transmitting, to the BS, a negative-acknowledgement (NACK) message. The BS may retransmit the MBS data communication either as an MBS transmission or as a unicast transmission, based on the configuration parameters. The first UE may monitor the appropriate resources to receive the retransmitted MBS data communication, based on the configuration parameters.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing multi-transmission and reception point operation in a wireless communication system. A plurality of transmission control indication states may be indicated for future use, e.g., using one or more separately identified lists. A subset of the indicated states may be activated. One or more states of the subset may be used for performing multi-transmission and reception point operation in a single downlink control information mode.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of a device that determines a physical downlink shared channel scheduling resource for a user equipment device and a base station is described. In an exemplary embodiment, the device selects a plurality of component carriers from a pool of available component carriers associated with a wireless link established between the user equipment device and the base station. In addition, the device selects a virtual component carrier from the plurality of component carriers. Furthermore, the device determines a physical downlink shared channel scheduling resource based on at least the virtual component carrier.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses disclosed herein can operate on an unlicensed spectrum. These systems, methods, and apparatuses can perform a first listen-before-talk (LBT) operation of a LBT protocol in a first slot from among multiple slots to determine whether the unlicensed spectrum is unoccupied. Thereafter, these systems, methods, and apparatuses can transmit an uplink (UL) transmission in other slots from among the plurality of slots in response to the unlicensed spectrum being unoccupied. Otherwise, these systems, methods, and apparatuses can perform a second LBT operation in a second slot from among the plurality of slots in response to the unlicensed spectrum being occupied.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) configured to determine a resource selection window which identifies a first set (e.g., a total set) of candidate resources. The UE may then remove one or more candidate resources from the first set of candidate resources in response to receiving sidelink control information (SCI) from a pedestrian UE with a reservation of the one or more first candidate resources. After removal of these candidate resources from the initial or first set based on their presumed unavailability, the result may be a second set of candidate resources, which may be a subset of the initial or first set for use in communicating with a third UE. The UE may also be configured to remove candidate resources based on a reference signal receive power (RSRP) threshold which can also be adjusted based on a maximum value or a highest priority of the pedestrian UE's data.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for enhancement in NTN mobility. A cellular base station may serve as a source base station of a handover procedure from the source base station to a target non-terrestrial network (NTN) base station. The cellular base station may configure a parameter associated with the target NTN base station in a handover command, the parameter being related to NTN mobility, and send the handover command to a wireless device for use by the wireless device during the handover procedure. The wireless device may receive the handover command from the cellular base station, and perform the handover procedure using the parameter associated with the target NTN base station.
