Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device to perform methods to implement mechanisms for performing a listen again after talk procedure to detect collisions over an access medium. The wireless device may determine a frequency and configuration of modified transmission frames for transmission over an access medium (licensed or unlicensed) and may further determine a timing of the modified transmission frames within a transmission occasion. The wireless device may detect, during a listening period of the modified transmission frame, a collision and may adjust, based, at least in part, on the detected collision, a remaining transmission schedule for the transmission schedule and/or LBT parameters.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for reducing latency in a high-propagation-delay wireless communication system. A user equipment device (UE) may transmit to a base station a random access initiation message, having a characteristic that is configured to indicate to the base station a requested size of a subsequent uplink grant to be provided by the base station for transmission of uplink data by the UE. For example, the characteristic may include a predetermined preamble included in the random access initiation message, such that a requested grant size is indicated by which preamble the UE selects from a plurality of possible preambles. As another example, the characteristic may include which RACH occasion is selected by the UE to transmit the random access initiation message. In response, the base station may allocate resources for use by the UE based on the characteristic.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for differentiating between licensed and unlicensed bands in a common portion of frequency spectrum to facilitate initial access in a fifth generation (5G) new radio (NR) wireless communication system having an NR node. The techniques include an NR generating and UE processing frequency configuration information indicating whether the common portion of frequency spectrum is allocated as a licensed band or an unlicensed band to enable a determination that the frequency spectrum is configured as the licensed band or unlicensed band and thereby facilitate initial access.

Abstract: Techniques for channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) configuration in wireless communications are disclosed. A user equipment (UE) may decode a message including a CSI-RS configuration that indicates a CSI-RS window associated with one or more CSI-RS, with respect to one or more mobility related measurements. The UE may determine one or more mobility related measurements using the CSI-RS configuration, and measure the one or more CSI-RS using the determination of the one or more mobility related measurements. The UE may generate a report for the base station corresponding to the measurement of the one or more CSI-RS.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for beam indication latency reduction via symbol level beam sweeping capability reporting. A wireless device may transmit, to a base station, a report associated with symbol level beam sweeping. The wire wireless device may receive, from the base station, a symbol level beam sweeping configuration. The symbol level beam sweeping configuration may be based, at least in part, on the report. The wireless device may perform synchronization signal block (SSB) measurements according to the report and the symbol level beam sweeping configuration.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for signaling a quasi-colocation (QCL) update in a wireless communication system. A network or base station may indicate to a UE to change a spatial relationship for transmission/reception. The base station may provide aperiodic reference signals for the UE to use in beam tracking according to the new spatial relationship. Optionally, the base station may also provide aperiodic reference signals for time, frequency, and/or phase tracking. Thus, the network may configure the UE to change to the new spatial relationship and use the aperiodic reference signals to quickly complete initial tracking operations.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for a wireless device to dynamically adapt its bandwidth use using network scheduling information in a cellular communication system. A radio resource control connection between a cellular base station and a wireless device may be established. The wireless device may receive network scheduling information from the cellular base station. The wireless device may dynamically select a receive bandwidth for receiving transmissions from the cellular base station based at least in part on the network scheduling information.

Abstract: A user equipment (UE) device may perform random access to a base station in the context where propagation delay between the base station and the UE device is large. The UE device randomly selects a random access preamble from an available set of preambles. The UE device selects a time slot for transmission of the random access preamble based on a configured correspondence between allowable time slots and subsets of the available set. The UE device transmits the random access preamble to a base station in the selected time slot, with timing advance to compensate for a common delay. Thus, the base station, knowing the configured correspondence, is able to determine the time slot in which the random access preamble was transmitted. The UE device receives a random access response that has been addressed with a Random Access Radio Network Temporary Identifier (RA-RNTI).
