Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to transmit physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmissions having repetitions. The UE receives a first downlink control information (DCI) transmission from a base station of the wireless network, wherein the first DCI transmission schedules a first physical uplink shared channel (PUSCH) transmission having repetitions, transmits the PUSCH transmission with the one or more repetitions, receives a second DCI transmission from the base station, wherein the second DCI transmission indicates that the UE should modify the repetitions of the first PUSCH transmission and modifies the repetitions of the first PUSCH transmission.

Abstract: PUCCH carrier switching includes decoding an RRC configuration that indicates a reference cell having a reference cell slot numerology. A reference cell slot is determined for PUCCH transmissions based on the reference cell slot numerology. The determined slot is used for transmission of an SR, CSI, or HARQ-ACK, A DCI indicating a candidate target PUCCH cell having a candidate target PUCCH cell slot numerology and a slot of the candidate target PUCCH cell is decoded. A target PUCCH cell having a target PUCCH cell slot numerology is determined for transmitting the SR, the CSI, or the HARQ-ACK. The determined slot is mapped to a corresponding slot of the target PUCCH cell. A PUCCH resource is determined for transmitting the SR, the CSI, or the HARQ-ACK using the corresponding slot of the target PUCCH cell. The PUCCH resource determination is based on a PUCCH configuration of the target PUCCH cell.

Abstract: Systems and methods of a wireless communications system using signals not traditionally used for positioning purposes for positioning measurements in both uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) are described herein. A user equipment (UE) may generate a UE capability information message indicating one or more signal types that the LE can process for DL positioning measurements and/or that the UE can send for UL positioning measurements. The one or more signal types so indicated may include signals not traditionally used for positioning measurements. The UE may send, to the base station, the UE capability information message. The wireless communications system may then configure the base station and/or the UE to use such signal types with one or more positioning methods. In some embodiments, the base station may also indicate to the UE a subset of signals of an indicated type which should be processed for DL measurements/sent for UL measurements.

Abstract: The present application relates to devices and components including apparatus, systems, and methods to perform a secondary cell (SCell) activation. A network node can send a UE a command to activate a component carrier, where this component carrier is associated with other component carriers of a component carrier group. In turn, the UE can determine one or more cross-component carrier reference signal(s) received on one or more activated component carriers of the component carrier group for use in the activation of the component carrier.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wakeup radio in a wireless communication system, e.g., in 5G NR systems and beyond. An RRC state is introduced to support a wakeup radio/, including defining transition mechanisms to/from existing RRC states. Further, signaling is introduced to activate a wakeup radio/activate an RRC low power state. Additionally, a bandwidth part framework for a wakeup signal is defined in which a base station may configure one or more time/frequency resources or a wakeup signal for a wakeup radio. In addition, various mechanisms are introduced to switch a wakeup radio on as well as to switch a wakeup radio off. Also, mechanisms are introduced for multiplexing multiple wakeup signals in a time/frequency resource, configuring a wakeup signal bandwidth, and configuring which beam a wakeup signal may be received on.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for group based Layer 1 Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (L1-SINR) measurement and report. The system according to the present disclosure includes at least a network device and a wireless device. A network device (such as a gNB) including at least a first Transmission and Reception Point (TRP) and a second TRP may generate a message used for a wireless device (such as a user equipment (UE)) to perform L1-SINR measurement, wherein the L1-SINR measurement is related to inter-beam interference for beams associated with the first TRP and the second TRP. The message may at least include: (1) a first channel measurement resource (CMR) set including multiple CMRs for the first TRP, and a first interference measurement resource (IMR) set including multiple IMRs for the first TRP, which is corresponding to the first CMR set; (2) a second CMR set including multiple CMRs for the second TRP, and a second IMR set including multiple IMRs for the second TRP, which is corresponding to the second CMR set; and (3) relation information, indicating the relation between the first CMR set and the second IMR set, and the relation between the second CMR set and the first IMR set. The network device sends the message to the wireless device, such that the wireless device may perform the L1-SINR measurement with respect to multiple CMR pairs at least based on the received message and then send corresponding report of the L1-SINR measurement to the network device.

Abstract: Techniques, described herein, include solutions for managing uplink control information (UCI) transmission for a channel state information (CSI) report resulting from measurements of CSI measurement resources. In response to the CSI report exceeding allocated uplink resources of a UCI transmission, a compressed CSI report can be generated by performing an uplink control information (UCI) omission to omit parameters of the CSI report based on components comprising frequency domain (FD) components and time domain (TD) components of the MIMO codebook configuration. The UCI transmission can be generated with the compressed CSI report.

Abstract: A base station and user equipment (UE) may determine, based on a synchronization signal block (SSB) burst and an offset, an index slot, of a system frame number (SFN), corresponding to a Type0-PDCCH common search space (CSS). The base station may transmit, and the UE may receive, a PDCCH signal that includes the Type0-PDCCH CSS, such that the UE may monitor the Type0-PDCCH CSS from the base station. The offset (Ou) may be hardcoded as one of values 0, 2.5, 5, or 7.5, and one offset value may be used for one, more than one, or all SCS numerologies. The offset may be modified by a delta (Δ) value, a scaling factor, and/or a combination thereof.
