Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods and devices for mitigating overheating in a user equipment device (UE). The UE is configured to communicate over each of LTE and 5G NR and may be configured to communicate through 5G NR over each of a Sub-6 GHz and a millimeter Wave (mmW) frequency band. The UE is configured to establish an ENDC connection with an enB and one or more gNBs. The UE implements intelligent transmission modification and cell measurement adjustments to mitigate overheating and reduce battery drain.

Abstract: Base stations, user equipment devices (UEs), and methods for a base station to supply service type-specific information to the UE. The base station may broadcast a first system information block (SIB) comprising scheduling information for a plurality of second SIBs, wherein each of the plurality of second SIBs corresponds to a respective service type of a plurality of service types, and wherein the second SIBs describe service type-specific capabilities of the base station. The plurality of service types may comprise two or more of enhanced mobile broadband, ultra-reliable low latency communications, and massive machine-type communications. The base station may broadcast the plurality of second SIBs according to the scheduling information of the first SIB, and may establish a connection and communicate with the UE using one or more service types and according to the service type-specific capabilities described by second SIBs corresponding to the one or more service types.

Abstract: A transmitter (e.g. a packet data convergence protocol, PDCP, in the transmitter), which may be a base station for downlink communications or a user equipment device for uplink communications, may control timing of the delivery of duplicate (same) packets to multiple (e.g. two) wireless links (e.g. radio link control links) for transmission to a receiver, based at least on synchronization information received from the receiver. The duplicate packets may be transmitted over the multiple wireless links to the receiver, which may receive the duplicate packets over the multiple wireless links. The receiver may collect and/or generate synchronization information indicative of the timing or latency between the multiple wireless links, based at least on the respective receive timings of the duplicate packets over the multiple wireless links. The receiver may transmit a report containing the synchronization information to the transmitter periodically and/or in response to a trigger event.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for mitigation of secondary cell failures. A user equipment (UE) may establish communication with a macro cellular base station. The UE may perform a signal quality measurement of a small cell base station and compare the signal quality measurement to a threshold. Based on the signal quality measurement exceeding the threshold, the UE may attempt to additionally connect to the small cell base station. In response to a radio link failure of the second base station, the UE may modify the first threshold. In response to subsequent failures to additionally connect to the small cell base station using the modified first threshold, the UE may disable connections to the small cell base station.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing radio resource control procedures for remote wireless devices in a wireless communication system. A remote wireless device may transmit a radio resource control message that includes information configured to be relayed to a cellular base station to a relay wireless device, which may relay the information to the cellular base station. The cellular base station may also transmit a radio resource control message that includes information configured to be relayed to the remote wireless device to the relay wireless device, which may relay the information to the remote wireless device.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to techniques for performing relay communication by a relay wireless device in a wireless communication system. A relay wireless device may receive bearer configuration information from a network. Based on the bearer configuration information, the UE may establish a bearer with a remote wireless device. The relay wireless device may forward data to/from the remote wireless device using the bearer.
