    Abstract: A UE is connected to a serving cell via an active BWP of a first BWP, and receives a message having criteria for switching from the first BWP to a second BWP. In response to at least one of the criteria being met, the UE waits until a first preconfigured time to switch from the first BWP to the second BWP, and switches the active BWP from the first BWP to the second BWP. The UE communicates with the serving cell and performs SSB measurements while using the second BWP as the active BWP. The UE switches from the second BWP to the first BWP after a second preconfigured time corresponding to a duration of time in the second BWP. The serving cell sends the message having the criteria, switches active BWPs accordingly, and communicates with the UE in the active BWPs.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products where a user equipment in a wireless communications network determines a measure of signal quality for a restricted set of beam recovery candidates, compares the measure of signal quality of contention free random access candidates reference signal in the restricted set or a subset of contention free random access candidates to a signal quality based recovery threshold, and selects the at least one candidate signal with signal quality above that threshold from a candidate beam reference signal list; where the user equipment measures a reference signal received power for contention free random access candidate beam, selects candidates above a reference signal received power threshold, determines signal quality for the selected contention free random access candidates above that threshold, and selects one candidate in response to multiple contention free random access candidates being above that threshold or the one with highest measure of signal quality.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are provided for use of bi-directional slots of a subframe. In some example embodiment, there may be provided an apparatus that includes at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to at least determine a threshold indicative of downlink symbol availability in at least one bi-directional slot of a subframe and monitor for an occasion covering the at least one bi-directional slot, when the threshold indicates the availability of downlink symbols in the at least one bi-directional slot. Related systems, methods, and articles of manufacture are also described.
