    Abstract: Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE) operable to communicate with an Evolved Node-B (eNB) on a wireless network. The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry, a second circuitry, and a third circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to process a configuration transmission carrying a half-tone shifting indicator. The second circuitry may be operable to select one or more subcarrier frequencies for Uplink (UL) transmission based on the half-tone shifting indicator. The third circuitry may be operable to generate a UL transmission for the one or more subcarrier frequencies. The half-tone shifting indicator may have a first value indicating application of a half-subcarrier offset, and a second value indicating no application of the half-subcarrier offset.

    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and storage media associated with components and implementations of wireless communication networks, and/or portions thereof, are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus for a next generation NodeB (gNB) may include processing circuitry to determine a number of resource element groups (REGs) to be included in a resource element group bundle (REGB) for a new radio physical downlink control channel (NR-PDCCH), and generate a signal that indicates the number of the REGs. The gNB may further include encoding circuitry, coupled with the processing circuitry, to encode the signal for transmission to a user equipment (UE). Other embodiments may be disclosed throughout.

    Abstract: An apparatus for a transceiver of a mobile communication system includes an interface configured to obtain receive signal information. The apparatus further includes a control module configured to determine a first cell identifying information of the mobile communication system based on the receive signal information, and configured to estimate an interfering signal information transmitted by a second cell of the mobile communication system based on the receive signal information. The interfering signal comprises control or payload data information of a second transceiver. The control module is further configured to detect a synchronization signal information transmitted for the cell based on the receive signal information and the interfering signal information. The control module is further configured to identify the first cell identifying information based on the synchronization signal information.

    Abstract: Apparatus, systems, and methods to implement enhanced sounding reference signaling for uplink (UL) beam tracking in communication systems are described. In one example, an apparatus of an evolved Node B (eNB) comprising processing circuit to broadcast system information about one or more sets of uplink transmit time intervals and bandwidths available for a sounding reference signal (SRS) transmission from a first user equipment (UE), configure one or more UE-specific SRS processes for the first UE for uplink beam tracking, and configure one or more millimeter wave access points (mmW APs) to transmit a mmW signal to the first UE and receive a mmW signal from the first UE. Other examples are also disclosed and claimed.
