Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a vehicle-to-everything (V2X) capable wireless device configured to perform sidelink cellular communications. The wireless device performs sidelink communications using a two-stage sidelink control information (SCI) protocol including Stage 1 SCI messaging carried on a physical sidelink control channel (PSCCH), and Stage 2 SCI messaging carried on a physical sidelink shared channel (PSSCH). The SCI messaging may be encoded using polar codes. Channel interleaving is utilized on the SCI to interleave the SCI between two or more layers of a MIMO transmission system. Scrambling for Stage 2 SCI messaging is performed based on the result of a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) performed on Stage 1 SCI messaging. Collisions between sidelink HARQ feedback to be transmitted to a base station and other transmissions are avoided based on a priority analysis of the sidelink HARQ feedback.

Abstract: An example method for wireless communication includes: receiving, by a user device in a reduced power state, resource information for receiving a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) and tracking reference signal (TRS); exiting the reduced power state to receive the CSI-RS and TRS, based on the resource information; synchronizing with a base station, based on the received CSI-RS and TRS, to receive a downlink control information message; receiving paging information in a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) transmission based on the received downlink control information message; determining whether there is paging information in the first PDSCH transmission for the user device; starting a Random Access Channel (RACH) procedure to make a Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection, based on determining that there is paging information for the user device; and returning to the reduced power state, based on determining that there is not paging information for the user device.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device to perform a method including a user equipment device (UE) exchanging communications with a base station to determine one or more scheduling profiles, such as one or more scheduling-power profiles, where a scheduling-power profile may specify one or more parameters associated with UE communication behavior, e.g., one or more constraints on UE communication behavior and/or slot scheduling of UE communications. In addition, the method may include the UE receiving a slot configuration schedule from the base station. The slot configuration schedule may be based on at least one scheduling-power profile of the one or more scheduling-power profiles. Further, the method may include the UE performing communications with the base station based on the at least one scheduling-power profile.

Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for a wireless device and a cellular base station to support common analog beam steering for band groups. The wireless device may provide an indication of analog beam steering capability of the wireless device to the cellular base station. For example, the wireless device may support a limited number of analog beams for each of one or more band groups. The cellular base station may select beam configuration information for the wireless device based at least in part on the indication of analog beam steering capability of the wireless device. This may include selecting a common beam for multiple component carriers for the wireless device based on the wireless device’s analog beam steering capability. The cellular base station may provide the beam configuration information to the wireless device.

Abstract: A base station may transmit to a device an indication of codebook subset restriction (CBSR), which includes at least a restriction on a frequency basis. The device may receive the indication of CBSR, and may transmit to the base station channel state information (CSI) according to the received indication of CBSR. The indication of CBSR may also include a restriction on a spatial basis and restrict the device from reporting the CSI based on a subset of the frequency basis in addition to the spatial basis per configuration of the base station. The indication of CBSR may include a separately configured maximum allowed amplitude of a weighting coefficient for the spatial basis and the frequency basis, where the weighting coefficient is associated with a column vector of a precoding matrix used by the base station and the device. The number of frequency bases and the frequency compression units may be determined based on a number of different criteria, for example the number of antennas, the number of subbands, etc.

Abstract: Embodiments are presented herein of apparatuses, systems, and methods for a user equipment device (UE) to transmit an indication of a link failure on a secondary cell. The indication may be transmitted on resources selected based on one or more conditions. One or more priority rules may be used to resolve collisions. The UE may further make an assumption of a beam or beams to use for communications with the secondary cell following the link failure and prior to receiving an indication from the network of a selected beam.
