Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for access management for reduced capability (RedCap) devices. A method may include acquiring system information from a cell. In some example embodiments, the system information may provide a control resource set zero configuration. The method may also include monitoring a physical downlink control channel based on the control resource set zero configuration. The method may further include receiving, from the physical downlink control channel, downlink control information that indicates a resource allocation for a system information block. In addition, the method may include determining, from the resource allocation whether the cell is barred.

Abstract: There are provided apparatuses, methods and computer program products. In accordance with an embodiment, there is disclosed a method comprising activating a secondary cell group provided by a secondary node co-operating with a master node for providing dual-connectivity communication resources for a user equipment. The activation is initiated either by the secondary node or the master node. Wherein when the activation is initiated by the secondary node a request is formed to activate the secondary cell group and the request is sent on a data radio bearer to the master node to be delivered to the user equipment for activation of the secondary cell group; and an activation indication is received from the user equipment. Wherein when the activation is initiated by the master node at least one message is received from the user equipment or from the master node; and initiation of the activation of the secondary cell group provided by the secondary node is determined based on the received at least one message.

Abstract: During an RRC Connection setup or resume procedure, a user equipment may explicitly identify itself to the network using Msg3. Rather than using the spare bit or including additional bits in Msg3, one or more values of the LCID field of the MAC sub-header of the MAC PDU may be used to identify a reduced capability user equipment. The one or more LCID field values that can identify a reduced capability user equipment may also be configured to identify a common control channel service data unit size. A plurality of LCID field values may be defined to identify varies types of RedCap UEs.

Abstract: It is provided a method, comprising checking if a contention based random access is to be performed for a reason different from a beam failure recovery; monitoring if a received first reference signal has a received power above a set power threshold and/or a received quality above a set quality threshold; checking if a reception device is configured to receive a downlink control signal on a first beam corresponding to the first reference signal; instructing a transmission device to transmit a preamble of the contention based random access on the first beam if the contention based random access is to be performed for the reason, the received first reference signal has the received power above the set power threshold and/or the received quality above the set quality threshold, and the reception device is configured to receive the downlink control signal on the first beam.

Abstract: Example embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to methods, devices, apparatuses and computer readable storage medium for single downlink control information (sDCI) based activation command for transmission configuration indication (TCI) state. The method comprises: receiving, by a terminal device from a network device, an activation command for a sDCI at least indicating whether a TCI state for a certain TCI codepoint indicates a first joint TCI state and whether a second joint TCI state associated with the certain TCI codepoint is present; and determining, based on the activation command, the certain TCI codepoint indicates at least one of the first joint TCI state or the second joint TCI state.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods, devices, apparatuses, and computer readable medium of secondary cell activation and deactivation. The method comprises: receiving, at a terminal device, an indication of deactivating a serving cell of the terminal device, the serving cell being provided by a second network device; determining a switching from an active bandwidth part, BWP, to a target BWP to be performed on the serving cell; and switching from the active BWP to the target BWP on the serving cell. Upon the SCell deactivation, the UE determines whether to switch from the active BWP to a specific BWP that may have RACH resources and/or be suitable for BFD or RLM. The specific BWP can be controlled or indicated by the network. As such, the power consumption of the UE and delay due to SCG activation are reduced, and thus the UE performance can be improved.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses, and computer readable storage media of access resource selection for Small Data Transmission (SDT). The method comprises determining one or more resources used for a mobile terminated type SDT procedure; and performing the mobile terminated type SDT procedure to a second device based on the determined one or more resources. In this way, separate resources can be configured for mobile originated SDT (MO-SDT) and mobile terminated SDT (MT-SDT). It is beneficial considering the MO-SDT and MT-SDT might have different assumption/thresholds of UL data available for transmission and Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP) threshold, hence impact the network response or further scheduling.
