    Abstract: Embodiments of an eNB to operate in accordance with a coverage enhancement mode are disclosed herein. The eNB may comprise hardware processing circuitry to, during a legacy sub-frame, transmit a system information block (SIB) in legacy SIB frequency resources according to a legacy SIB transmission format and refrain from transmission of channel state information reference signals (CSI-RS). The hardware processing circuitry may be further to, during a first coverage enhancement sub-frame, transmit a first portion of the SIB in first SIB frequency resources included in the legacy SIB frequency resources. The hardware processing circuitry may be further to, during a first coverage enhancement sub-frame, transmit a first set of CSI-RS in first CSI-RS frequency resources that include at least a portion of the legacy SIB frequency resources.

    Abstract: Technology for a UE is disclosed. The UE can identify that a resource for a PUCCH transmission with HARQ-ACK information and/or a resource for a PUCCH associated with a SR overlap in time with two resources for respective PUCCH transmissions with two CSI reports. The UE can select a resource for a PUCCH transmission with a CSI report having a higher priority from the two resources for respective PUCCH transmissions with the two CSI reports. The UE can multiplex the HARQ-ACK information and/or the SR in the selected resource for the PUCCH transmission with the CSI report having the higher priority. The UE can encode the multiplexed HARQ-ACK information and the SR and the CSI report for transmission on the selected resource for the PUCCH transmission to a NR base station. The UE can drop the CSI report and the PUCCH resource having a lower priority.
