Abstract: A device may wirelessly communicate with a number of different cells used in a carrier aggregation. The device may monitor physical downlink control channels (PDCCHs) on the different cells, dynamically switching between a dormant monitoring state (DS) and an active monitoring state (AS). In the DS, the UE may not monitor any PDCCH candidates on the active secondary SCells corresponding to the DS, or it may monitor PDCCH candidates in the search space (SS) set with the largest monitoring periodicity among the multiple SS sets on the active bandwidth part (BWP). In the AS, the UE may monitor a set of PDCCH candidates in physical resources configured by higher layers on the BWPs. Switching from one monitoring state to another may be facilitated through the use of a new downlink control information (DCI) format without data scheduling, a modified existing DCI format with data scheduling, and/or use of a DS timer.

Abstract: In an example method, a user equipment (UE) device determines one or more component carriers available to the UE device for at least one of transmitting or receiving data over a wireless network. The UE device transmits, to the wireless network, for each component carrier, an indication whether the component carrier supports at least one of transmitting or receiving data according to a multi-transmission and receiving points (multi-TRP) communication protocol.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure enable a user equipment (UE) to performing inter-Radio Access Technology (RAT) measurements. The UE determines whether one or more inter-RAT measurement object (MO) is configured with or without a measurement gap (MG). When the one or more inter-RAT MO is on an NR serving component carrier (CC) with the MG, the UE performs an inter-RAT measurement on the NR serving CC based on whether the MG is fully overlapped or partially overlapped with synchronization signal blocks (SSBs) of a target MO of the one or more inter-RAT MO. When the one or more inter-RAT MO is on the NR serving CC without the MG, the UE performs the inter-RAT measurement on the NR serving CC based on whether a target SSB of the target MO is within or outside an active bandwidth part (BWP) of the NR serving CC.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus to process delay for PDCCH repetition. A transmission of a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) repetition may be monitored. A multiplexing pattern of the PDCCH repetition and a physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) within an overlapping symbol may be determined. A processing delay for a decoding of the PDCCH repetition, a decoding of the scheduled PDSCH, and an acknowledgement (ACK) preparation based on the multiplexing pattern of the PDCCH repetition and the PDSCH within the overlapping symbol may be determined. The PDSCH may be monitored after receiving the PDCCH repetition.

Abstract: Aspects are described for a user equipment (UE) comprising a transceiver configured to enable wireless communication with a base station and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The processor is configured to determine one or more configured grant (CG) transport blocks (TBs) of one or more CG uplink transmissions and determine one or more dynamic grant (DG) TBs of one or more DG uplink transmissions. The processor is further configured to determine that a first CG TB of the one or more CG TBs overlaps with a first DG TB of the one or more DG TBs in time and determine that a priority level of the first CG TB is lower than a priority level of the DG TB. The processor is further configured to determine that the priority level of the first CG TB is lower than the priority level of the first DG TB and transmit, in the first DG TB, a first DG uplink transmission corresponding to the first DG TB.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus, and computer programs, for activating cross-slot scheduling in user equipment (UE) to achieve power savings. In one aspect, the method can include actions of generating, by an access node, an RRC communication including one or more parameters that, when processed by the UE, configures the UE to forego use of computing resources to buffer for potential PDSCH transmission for a predetermined amount of time, encoding, by the access node, the RRC communication for transmission to the UE, and causing, by the access node, one or more antennae to transmit the encoded RRC communication to the UE.

Abstract: A base station (BS) may receive a plurality of repetitions of a Physical Uplink Control Channel (PUCCH) from a user equipment (UE), and accumulate the received repetitions to obtain a resultant signal. The ability to accumulate repetitions enables the base station to experience a higher probability of successful recovery of the PUCCH payload bits than if decoding were based on the reception of a non-repeated transmission of the PUCCH. The base station may configure the number of repetitions, the temporal gap between the repetitions, and mode of repetition of the PUCCH. In an intra-slot mode, more than one copy may be received from each configured slot, with or without frequency hopping. In an inter-slot mode, one copy is received per configured slot. Different repetitions may be transmitted by the UE in different directions, according to a spatial consistency pattern.

Abstract: Some embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product for radio resource management (RRM) scaling factor enhancement without measurement gaps (MGs) in an E-UTRA-New Radio (NR) Dual Connectivity (EN-DC) network. Some embodiments include a user equipment (UE) that receives from a Primary Node (PN), a first NR measurement object (MO) without MG associated with a frequency. The UE receives from a Secondary Node (SN), a second NR MO without MG associated with the same frequency. The UE allocates resources based on a Primary Secondary Component Carrier (PSCC) and determines a scaling factor for determining a total procedure period for obtaining measurements to satisfy the first and the second NR MO without MG. Some embodiments include combining counts of NR MO without MG at a same frequency. Some embodiments include coordination between the PN and the SN so that MOs without MG at a common frequency satisfy the merging rule.
