Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to the field of wireless communications, and in particular to techniques for performing one-step data transmissions from a User Equipment (UE) to a Base Station (BS), without requiring the UE to transit from an idle state to a connected state in a wireless communication network. To make it possible to perform the one-step data transmission, the UE receives a confirmation from the BS that the BS supports the one-step data transmission (which means that the BS has allocated, in advance, the UL resources for performing the one-step data transmission), and to have a pre-stored database associating cell IDs of different cells with corresponding pre-allocated UL resources and transmission parameters. Said confirmation from the BS may be represented by a predefined signal sequence, the presence of which will inform the UE about the possibility of performing the one-step data transmission within a cell of interest. After receiving the predefined signal sequence, the UE uses the pre-stored database to find the UL resources and transmission parameters used for the one-step data transmission from the idle state within the cell of interest.

Abstract: An apparatus may include a processor and computer program code, and may be configured to cause the apparatus to allocate a radio transceiver for a communication of a first SIM and a second SIM for alternative active periods, wherein the first SIM is configured to at least monitor paging messages during its active periods and the second SIM is configured to perform beam management operations during its active periods; monitor a number of scheduled beam management operations of the second SIM skipped during the active periods of the radio transceiver allocated for the first SIM; determine, based on at least data from the performed beam management operations, a threshold value for the skipped beam management operations; and adjust, in response to the number of the skipped beam management operations reaching the threshold value, allocation of the active periods of the radio transceiver between the first SIM and the second SIM.

Abstract: An SL UE that detects a resource conflict associated with a transmitting UE may be able to indicate this resource conflict by transmitting inter-UE coordination information over a PSFCH resource determined based on a group member ID of the transmitting UE. This may be different from transmitting HARQ feedback via a PSFCH resource determined based on a group member ID of the detecting UE.
