Abstract: Aspects are described for a user equipment (UE) comprising a transceiver configured to enable wireless communication with a first transmission/reception point (TRP) and a second TRP and a processor communicatively coupled to the transceiver. The UE is in a multi-TRP mode. The processor is configured to perform a first beam failure detection (BFD) procedure for the first TRP and a second BFD procedure for the second TRP. The processor is further configured to perform a first beam failure recovery (BFR) procedure for the first TRP responsive to a result of the first BFD procedure and a second BFR for the second TRP responsive to a result of the second BFD procedure. The processor is further configured to receive a configuration message, a BFD configuration, and a BFR configuration. The UE switches to a single-TRP mode upon receiving the configuration message. The processor is further configured to update the first BFD procedure based on the BFD configuration and update the first BFR procedure based on the BFR configuration. Finally, the processor is configured to perform the updated first BFD procedure and the updated first BFR procedure for the first TRP responsive to a result of the updated first BFD procedure.

Abstract: Described are processing time approaches to simultaneous multi-cell PUSCH/PDSCH scheduling with a single DCI (downlink control information) in a wireless communication system. In various approaches, simultaneously scheduling a plurality of physical downlink shared channels (PDSCH) through a single DCI transmitted via a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) occurs, wherein each of the plurality of PDSCHs is associated with a respective cell in a plurality of cells. The approaches further include transmitting data to or receiving data to a user equipment (UE) based on the scheduling information, wherein the plurality of PDSCHs occurs no earlier than a time offset following the PDCCH. In other aspects, a hybrid automatic repeat request-acknowledgement (HARQ-ACK) is received via a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH), the HARQ-ACK having been sent by a user equipment (UE) in response to one of the plurality of PDSCHs, wherein the HARQ-ACK is sent no earlier than a time offset following a reference time in one of the plurality of PDSCHs. In other aspects, transmitting data to or receiving data to a user equipment (UE) is based on the scheduling information, wherein the plurality of PDSCHs occurs no earlier than a time offset following the PDCCH, the time offset being configured to permit analog beam switching by a user equipment (UE).

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for supporting the transmission of phase tracking reference signals (PTRS) based on an association between one or more PTRS ports and one or more demodulation reference signals (DMRS) ports for a user equipment (UE) having multiple uplink (UL) antenna elements. The UE can receive a downlink control information (DCI) including an association indication contained in an association field of the DCI to indicate an association between one or more PTRS ports and one or more DMRS ports. The association field can have a bit width determined based on an antenna architecture of the UE including the number of UL antenna elements. The UE can further determine a DMRS port associated with a PTRS port based on the association indication contained in the association field and the antenna architecture.

Abstract: A location management function (LMF) of a network provides timing errors to user equipment and/or base stations for positioning purposes. The LMF receives an indication of an effective timing error for a downlink time difference of arrival (DL-TDOA) positioning technique, wherein the effective timing error is associated with a set of base stations configured to transmit positioning reference signals for the DL-TDOA and provides the effective timing error to a user equipment (UE) performing operations related to the DL-TDOA.

Abstract: Some aspects of this disclosure relate to apparatuses and methods for implementing techniques for a user equipment (UE) having dual connectivity. The UE can communicate with a first primary base station in a first primary cell (PCell) and a second primary base station in a second PCell. The UE has dual connectivity in the second PCell using a first wireless carrier to communicate with the second primary base station and a second wireless carrier to communicate with a secondary base station in a primary secondary cell (PSCell). The UE receives a message from the first primary base station to perform a handover procedure. The UE performs the handover procedure according to the received message, and further perform an addition procedure for the secondary base station in parallel with the handover procedure. A start time of the addition procedure can be before an end time of the handover procedure.

Abstract: Some aspects include an apparatus, method, and computer program product for beamforming to perform received signal strength indicator (RSSI) measurements in a 5G wireless communications system. This beamforming may apply to RSSI measurements in an unlicensed spectrum. In some aspects, user equipment (UE) may use beam sweeping to analyze multiple received beams and to determine an RSSI measurement. When using beam sweeping, network nodes may use scheduling and/or measurement restrictions to avoid data collisions. These restrictions may apply to multiple active serving cells. In some aspects, a UE may use beam selection to determine an RSSI measurement. For example, the UE may select one or more beams from a serving component carrier (CC). In some aspects, a network node may indicate to the UE which beams to use for the RSSI measurement. In some aspects, the UE may use a frequency domain resource to perform the RSSI measurement.

Abstract: Some embodiments include a system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method, and/or computer program product and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for implicit power saving operations for a network-controlled repeater (NCR) in a wireless network. Some embodiments include an NCR that can receive a Downlink Control Information (DCI) format including a first Physical Downlink Control Channel (PDCCH) monitoring periodicity, KS1, and operate in an On-state for a duration of KS1. The NCR can detect a skipped PDCCH monitoring periodicity, and operate in an Off-state for a duration corresponding to the skipped PDCCH monitoring periodicity. In some embodiments, the NCR operates with a carrier component (CC) with unpaired spectrum supporting slot configurations time division duplex (tdd)-uplink (UL)-downlink (DL)-ConfigurationCommon or tdd-UL-DLConfigurationDedicated. The NCR can detect from a System Information Block (SIB), a flexible orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol, and operate in an Off-state for a duration of the flexible OFDM symbol.
