Abstract: Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable for bandwidth part (BWP) configuration is disclosed. The UE can decode, at the UE, a radio resource control (RRC) signal including BWP configuration information for one or more of downlink (DL) or uplink (UL) BWP configurations, wherein the BWP configuration information comprises: subcarrier spacing for the BWP, and location and bandwidth of the BWP. The UE can encode one or more of data or control information, using the BWP configuration information, for transmission to a next generation node B (gNB). The UE can decode one or more of data or control information, using the BWP configuration information, received from the gNB.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and baseband processors are provided to generate or process symbols in a synchronization subframe. In one example, a method includes selecting non-consecutive orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols in a synchronization subframe. A transmitter is instructed to transmit demodulation reference symbols (DM-RS) on identical first sets of subcarriers in respective OFDM symbols of the selected non-consecutive OFDM symbols for a Physical Broadcast Channel (PBCH) using a same transmit beam, wherein a gap between two subcarriers in a respective set of the identical first sets of subcarriers is three subcarriers. The transmitter is instructed to transmit the PBCH on identical second sets of subcarriers in respective OFDM symbols in the selected non-consecutive OFDM symbols.

Abstract: A network device (e.g., a user equipment (UE), or a new radio NB (gNB)) can process or generate a configuration of a physical random access channel (PRACH) over physical resource blocks (PRBs) that are interlaced in an unlicensed band in an NR unlicensed (NR-U) communication. The PRBs in the PRACH can be based on an occupied channel bandwidth (OCB) of the unlicensed band in the NR-U communication. A random access channel transmission in the PRACH can then be generated by interlacing the PRBs defining the PRACH.

Abstract: Herein described are apparatuses, systems, and methods for measurement and reporting of channel state information within wireless network systems. In embodiments, an apparatus for a user equipment (UE) may include memory to store a rank indicator (RI), a precoding matrix index (PMI), and a channel quality indicator (CQI) of channel state information (CSI) for the UE. The apparatus may further include circuitry to concatenate the RI, the PMI, and the CQI to produce a concatenated CSI element, generate a CSI report that includes the concatenated CSI element, and cause the CSI report to be transmitted to a base station within a single slot. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Described is an apparatus of a User Equipment (UE) operable to communicate with an Evolved Node-B (eNB) on a wireless network. The apparatus may comprise a first circuitry and a second circuitry. The first circuitry may be operable to allocate a first set of Resource Elements (REs) for a set of Uplink Control Information (UCI) types corresponding with a first set of frequency resources. The first circuitry may also be operable to allocate a second set of REs for the set of UCI types corresponding with a second set of frequency resources. The second circuitry may be operable to prepare one or more Physical Uplink Shared Channel (PUSCH) transmissions comprising the first set of REs and the second set of REs. A number of REs in the first set of REs may be different than a number of REs in the second set of REs.

Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to resource mapping schemes. One embodiments is an apparatus including one or more processors coupled to a memory interface, and configure to encode a two part CSI that includes information bits of a first UCI type and information bits of a second UCI type. The First UCI type is a HARQ-ACK and the second the second UCI type is a SR. The encoded information bits of the first UCI type and the second UCI type are mapped onto a first physical resource. The first physical resource and a second physical resource are multiplexed in a TDM manner and the first physical resource precedes the second physical resource in a time domain. Information bits of the first and second UCI types are jointly encoded to respectively generate encoded HARQ-ACK bits and encoded SR bits. The two part CSI is output in a PUCCH.

Abstract: Techniques are described relating to hybrid automatic repeat request acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) feedback using a HARQ-ACK aggregation window. A User Equipment (UE) may receive control information (e.g., downlink control information (DCI) or radio resource control (RRC) signaling) from a base station including HARQ-ACK codebook information. The HARQ-ACK codebook information may include information on a size of a HARQ-ACK aggregation window. The UE may decode physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmissions and encode corresponding HARQ-ACK feedback using the HARQ-ACK aggregation window based on the control signaling.
