Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for reducing likelihood of Random Access Channel (RACH) transmission blockages and thereby facilitate an initial access procedure for new radio (NR) unlicensed spectrum (NR-U) operation in a fifth generation (5G) wireless communication system including an NR node. In some embodiments, a parameter generated by a gNB and received by a UE indicates that, from among a set of consecutive RACH Occasions (ROs), a gap is available for performing a listen-before-talk (LBT) procedure before commencing a RACH transmission.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) performs uplink (UL) transmissions to a network. The UE receives a frequency domain resource allocation (FDRA) configuration from a network, the FDRA configuration comprising at least one of a first FDRA mode or a second FDRA mode, wherein the first FDRA mode utilizes an FDRA unit comprising a set of consecutive resource blocks (RBs) and the second FDRA mode utilizes an FDRA unit comprising a set of interlaced RBs, when both of the first and second FDRA modes are configured, the UE receives a signal indicating which one of the two FDRA modes are to be used for an uplink (UL) transmission and performs the UL transmission in accordance with the indicated FDRA mode.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for port selection codebook configuration. A user equipment (UE) may decode a channel state information (CSI) report configuration (CSI-ReportConfig) from a base station. The CSI-ReportConfig configuring a port selection codebook comprising a port selection matrix W1, a combinational coefficient matrix W2, and a frequency basis selection matrix Wf. Based on the CSI-ReportConfig, the determines, for the port selection matrix W1, up to L CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) ports out of P CSI-RS ports configured for measuring and reporting CSI. For the frequency basis selection matrix Wf, the UE determines up to Mv frequency basis out of N frequency basis. For the combinational coefficient matrix W2, the UE determines up to L*Mv entries per layer. The UE reports one or more of the port selection matrix W1, the combinational coefficient matrix W2, and the frequency basis selection matrix Wf to the base station.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE), or other network component can operate to configure channel state information (CSI) feedback in response to receiving a CSI-reference signal (CSI-RS) according to a hierarchical precoding scheme that selectively reduces a feedback overhead associated with the CSI feedback. The UE can operate to divide and further sub-divide a frequency band (e.g., a wideband, or particular frequency part) into a precoding hierarchy to generate precoders for conveyance to a base station, eNodeB (eNB), or next generation NodeB (gNB) via the CSI feedback.

Abstract: User equipment devices (UEs) may receive multimedia broadcast and multicast service (MBMS) transmissions over a bandwidth part (BWP) specifically allocated for MBMS point-to-multipoint (PTM) transmissions, or over MBMS-specific resources configured for PTM transmissions within a UE-dedicated BWP. The network (e.g. base station) may configure the MBMS-specific BWP for the UE for the PTM transmissions per serving cell. The MBMS-specific BWP may be used for downlink transmissions, and may be cell specific or UE specific per serving cell. The base station may provide MBMS PTM scheduling information per BWP to the UE, may indicate whether a UE-dedicated BWP may be used for PTM scheduling and transmission, and may provide the corresponding scheduling configuration when applicable. The UE may communicate its various capabilities related to MBMS reception and simultaneous reception of PTM and point-to-point (PTP) transmissions to the base station to aid the base station in scheduling communications of the UE.

Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing inter-UE coordination regarding reserved resources of a sidelink (SL) resource pool are described herein. A first user equipment (UE) may identify that a first SL resource pool on a first radio access technology (RAT) overlaps with a second SL resource pool on a second RAT, sense for reservation signaling on the second SL resource pool to determine reserved resources on the second SL resource pool, and transmit resource reservation information indicating those reserved resources on SL on the first RAT. A second UE may receive the resource reservation information on the SL, identify, within the first SL resource pool, corresponding resources that overlap with the reserved resources of the second SL resource pool, select, from the first SL resource pool, transmission resources to use for a SL transmission by prioritizing resources other than the corresponding resources; and perform the SL transmission using those transmission resources.

Abstract: Systems and methods for user equipment (UE) capable of performing sidelink (SL) communications that account for overlapped SL resource pools of multiple radio access technologies (RATs) are disclosed. A UE may select, based on prioritizing non-overlapped resources over overlapped resources, one or more candidate resources and/or one or more transmission resources; may determine a power control configuration without considering SL pathloss corresponding to a first RAT when a second power control configuration determination for a second RAT does not consider SL pathloss; may select physical sidelink feedback channel (PSFCH) locations for PSFCH use from first PSFCH locations of resources of a first SL resource pool on a first RAT that do not overlap with a second SL resource pool on a second RAT according to a bitmap; and/or may select one of a PSFCH transmission and PSFCH reception using a data priority rule and/or a pool sharing rule.

Abstract: A cell receives channel state information for multiple transmission reception points (TRPs) from a user equipment (UE). The cell selects a first transmission reception point (TRP) of multiple TRPs associated with a cell of a network, transmits a signal to a user equipment (UE) via the selected TRP, wherein the signal is configured to trigger semi-persistent CSI (SP-CSI) report at the UE and receives the SP-CSI report from the UE that includes CSI corresponding to each TRP of the multiple TRPs.

Abstract: Configuring non-zero-power channel state information reference signal (NZP-CSI-RS) may include encoding a channel state information (CSI) configuration communication for transmission to a user equipment (UE) that is in connected mode with both a first transmission and reception point (TRP) associated with a serving cell and a second TRP associated with a neighbor cell. The NZP-CSI-RS configuration communication may establish a plurality of parameters for NZP-CSI-RS in the serving cell and the neighbor cell.
