    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for providing downlink control for multi-TRP transmission. A network-side device may provide a downlink control information transmission to a wireless device scheduling downlink transmission to the wireless device from multiple transmission reception points. The downlink transmission may relate to Hybrid automatic repeat request process and/or system information transmission. And the downlink control information may include information about scheduling of HARQ processes from different TRPs, and/or information about scheduling of SI transmission from different TRPs. The wireless device may receive the downlink transmissions from the plurality of transmission reception points in accordance with the downlink control information.

    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for port selection codebook configuration. A user equipment (UE) may decode a channel state information (CSI) report configuration (CSI-ReportConfig) from a base station. The CSI-ReportConfig indicates up to L CSI reference signal (CSI-RS) ports for selection by the UE out of P CSI-RS ports configured for measuring and reporting CSI. The UE determines selected CSI-RS ports out of the P CSI-RS ports. The selected CSI-RS ports include the L CSI-RS ports or less. The UE generates a port selection matrix W1 corresponding to the selected CSI-RS ports. The UE also generates an indication of the port selection matrix W1 to the base station. The CSI-ReportConfig may further configure the UE to select a subset of frequency basis. The UE determines a selected subset of frequency basis and generates a frequency basis selection matrix Wf corresponding to the selected subset of frequency basis.

    Abstract: A user equipment (UE) is configured to establish a network connection including a new radio (NR)-NR dual connectivity band combination wherein a primary cell (PCell) of a primary cell group (PCG) and a primary secondary cell (PSCell) of a secondary cell group (SCG) both operate on frequency range 1 (FR1) and wherein at least one cell of either the PCG or the SCG operates on frequency range 2 (FR2). The UE receives a measurement gap timing advance parameter, selects one subframe from multiple serving cell subframes and determines a starting point for a configured per-frequency range (FR) measurement gap based on the measurement gap timing advance parameter and the selected subframe.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for performing fast beam tracking in a wireless communication environment. A UE signals to a gNB its capabilities for intra-symbol beam sweeping. Depending on configuration, the UE can either assume that the intra-symbol beam sweeping configuration will be implemented, or will await a response from the gNB before implementing intra-symbol beam sweeping. Although this is generally carried out during initial access between the UE and the gNB, the beam sweeping configuration can be dynamically updated by either the UE or the gNB during established communication. For example, the UE can signal a desired change via its MAC CE, and the gNB can signal its change to the UE via DCI.

    Abstract: A method performed by a user equipment (UE) is described. The method includes establishing a connection to a network that includes discontinuous reception (DRX) cycles, each DRX cycle including a scheduled OnDuration and a wake up signal (WUS) opportunity corresponding to each of the scheduled OnDurations, when a WUS is received in the WUS opportunity for one of the scheduled OnDurations, configuring the UE to utilize an active mode of processing during the one of the scheduled OnDurations and when a WUS is not received in the WUS opportunity for one of the scheduled OnDurations, configuring the UE to utilize a sleep mode of inactivity during the one of the scheduled OnDurations.
